Any plans for a 64 bit Mac Version?

Post by Bahamut »

Hey, long time user of Snes9X on mac. I recently updated to Catalina, which ended support for 32 bit applications. I don't know what is required to update an app to 64 bit, so this may sound like a dumb question, but are there any plans to update Snes9X to work with future versions of mac OS X?

Thanks for everything!

Yeah, me too. Any plans for a 64 bit Mac Version ? My favourite emulator since about 2000 or something and my first two games was Rockman & Forte and Super Mario World emulated!

I will NEVER upgrade my home computer as I have many 32 bit apps that I use on a regular basis and they’re no longer supported so I’m stuck with El Capitan which works perfectly well for my purposes.

Hello, I also updated to Catalina and was able to continue playing games by downloading retroarch and installing the snes9x core. Hope that helps. Thanks everyone for all your efforts!
