Epilogue has finally pulled back the curtain on the SN Operator, a device that lets you play SNES titles with authentic cartridge interaction and modern conveniences.
An in-app emulator keeps your saves synced between PC and console, all with co-op play, controller support, cheats, and [Retro Achievements support].
This device works with Windows, macOS, and Linux, and you can even use other emulators if you’d like.
Epilogue previously released the GB operator (link).
Retro Achievements support means support for the achievements created by our community.

Featuring Inu Megapack Integrated with RPGe Translation
For the first time, the widely hailed work of Japanese romhacker Inu (dog) has been amassed for testing and integration with the monumental RPGe translation before being released as a standalone, no-frills megapack.
Why the name “Boco’s FFV”? Well, dog is man’s best friend, and Boco is Bartz’s best friend, so to speak, so there you go.
Although certain hacks have used some of Inu’s work in the past, it is unclear how big of a fraction of Inu’s comprehensive body of work was included.
Some of these works did not provide any integration with an English translation.
Furthermore, those certain hacks added additional features, sometimes well beyond those that Inu intended to offer in his body of work.
