An emulator application + VC ROM in the NCCH [[RomFS]] (among other things in the RomFS). The emulator build includes support for all these three platforms, not specific to just the included ROM platform.

The original emulator builds include support for all these three platforms, not specific to just the included ROM platform. However, releases intended for NES games have a red menu, optional switching between the two controllers, a different X button mapping (B instead of menu), optional [[Download Play]] support, and [http://s27.postimg.org/60v4yuw8z/IMG_20140921_001103.jpg a never used multi-rom support]; while Game Boy versions have a green theme and optional 3D border.

 

 

This emulator includes GBA support, however the GBA emulation for this this is somewhat slow. This was presumably implemented before AGB_FIRM was.

| Game preset ID? (varies for each game). Incremental, started with 0x10XX values in old releases, newest ones have 0x11XX (with XX being back to low values).

| Preset ID (varies for each game). A full list of know Preset IDs (shared by WiiU/SNESC/Switch SNES emulators) can be found [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PbIPVA4NpFEXs1zk249aR3FSuBTY3r-ajpTq3dP3GnQ here]

The 0x60 header is followed by the SNES ROM, often altered to replace audio samples with pointers to external PCM audio files converted from the game, presumably to speed up emulation (these pointers can be found by looking for "PCMF" in the ROM, as seen on [https://github.com/Plombo/vcromclaim/blob/master/snesrestore.py Wii VC]).

The ROM is then optionally followed by the PCM audio files, by the SDD-1 decompressed graphics data (presumably the emulator doesn't properly emulate the chip because of hardware constraints) and by a footer which appears to be an index for the PCM audio data.

There are no setting fields for specific cart features, and it appears that the emulator has "game presets" stored in its own code, which determine the cart expansion chip and probably more game-specific settings. Each official VC release has a different preset ID in the header.

There are no setting fields for specific cart features, with the exception of Special Chip, and it appears that the emulator has "game presets" stored in its own code, which determines more game-specific settings. The Special Chip can also be enabled by the game Preset ID. Each official VC release has [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PbIPVA4NpFEXs1zk249aR3FSuBTY3r-ajpTq3dP3GnQ/edit#gid=490971147 a different preset ID] in the header. The supported Special Chips are: DSP1, C4 and DSP2.
