Turn a Super NES into a Universal Game Player

Step 6 Load in Operating System and Games

It's time to get digital! Your console now needs an operating system and applications. Plug your keyboard and mouse into usb ports on your system. You will be keeping these in until you have everything set the way you want it.

1) Install your operating system. I have attached instructions below on the process for installing Windows XP using a computer and an SD card reader.

2) Now with the operating system up and running, you are free to get all the games, emulators and application you want. The easiest way to load these games on your hard drive is by taking out the SD card and plugging it into your computer with the SD card reader. Just drag and drop all the games and emulators in a folder on your SD Card. You are free to put whatever games and emulators you choose on the card, but they need to be games that can be mapped to your controllers. See the appendix attached to step 8 for my recommended emulators.

So, you have to go pro to get the PDF. Is there any way you could send it to me?

The only PDF that you need to be a pro member to get is the one to view all steps in one PDF.

The supplimental PDF for installing XP on a SD to SATA drive on the bottom of step 6 should be something that you can download.

There is also an appendix on the bottom of step 8 that you should be able to download as well. Let me know if you still have trouble with these files.

Ok, I see it now. They make it kind of look like an add or something, so I didn't pay any attention to it.
Thanks

it sais unoversal but apperently it is only for pc games that can be mapped on a controller with about, 10 buttons. that are not speed sensitive, you might as well play this on a computer than reck a perfectly good super nintendo,

Dude, I got like 6 old super nintendos and probably a dozen NES machines I have picked up at garage sales and goodwill (mostly for the controllers and games). I must be sitting on a pot-o-gold huh?

I haven't pulled out those machines in years, although a game of Tecmo Super Bowl sounds great right about now. I'd gladly sacrafice an old shell to be able to play these classics in style. Of course you could play these on PC, but the point is - how cool is it to have everything assembled in an old SNES!! That's not only style, but all the classics at your fingertips. Anyone who loved these systems should appreciate that.
