Nintaco


Description

Nintaco is a cycle-accurate Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) / Famicom emulator and NES Sound Format (NSF) player written in Java, ostensibly making it cross-platform.

 

It supports the vast majority of games including those for the Famicom Disk System (FDS), Dendy and Vs. UniSystem along with a plethora of peripherals.

 

It tracks play history, enabling the player to rewind time to undo mistakes, and to watch, export, edit and resume play at any point in the past. It supports netplay, save states, video and audio recording, video filters, screenshots, cheat codes, a debugger and a TAS editor.

 

It can be controlled programmatically via an API. It provides automatic capturing of sprites and level maps. It even simulates R.O.B., the Robotic Operating Buddy.

 

Getting Started

  • If double-clicking the jar does not automatically launch the emulator, try: java -jar Nintaco.jar
  • Configure input: Options | Button Mapping...
  • If you are using an 8 button controller, such as a USB NES gamepad, try mapping Rewind Time to Start + B.
  • If you want to resume at arbitrary points in the past: Tools | Watch History... and Resume Here
