Video: SNES Emulator (SNES9x) XBox 360 Port with JTAG Exploit

[semitop]

With the JTAG exploit, it's now possible to play the SNES9x SNES emulator port on the XBox 360 console.

It's very simple so far, but shows what's possible right now.

This port of SNES9X-GX (Wii) was done without an official SDK. It uses libxenon, so it was developed without any of the official xbox development tools.

For those unaware, libxenon is a library for writing programs for the Xbox 360, without using any existing code as a basis.

The video comes courtesy of tmbinc via YouTube, and the caption reads as follows:

This is only possible if you havent updated your xbox360. 360 fully hacked to play homebrew before anything showed up for the ps3

give the PS3 time man. Think of it like Apple, hackers nah pay premium price to mess around wid them products therefore Apple can boast crap like "we have no viruses"
people hacking them tings is just that there isn't enough "hack power" due its price

if u update ur 360 with the new dashboard they will patch it a new JTAG Exploit will b release by end of the week which u be able to run emu apps n alot more

Semi, stop di bawling.

You could do something simliar on ps3 before certain firmware updates.



Even though that doesn't work with recent firmware, you can still run linux on the PS3 and use emulators in the linux instance.



So stop the bawling and go install linux on your PS3!

Nobody is going to hack the ps3 beause you can run lunix freely on the ps3. It makes no sense to hack a console that has a opensource os on it.

IF you want to run homebrew get a Wii. Well Nintendo is making it harder with the new wiis but so it go.

Actually even with the linux they are trying to find a way to access the RSX so a hack might still surface for that. Installing linux isnt for everybody and it cuts into your ps3s hard drive space, is separate from the game OS (so someone might even want a way to launch ps3 games from linux), and its not exactly a great performer.

Also there is rumour that the new ps3 wont be able to run linux . Add to that the rumour of B?C through firmware and there might be hope of exploiting that

Dude, it performs just fine for casual usage. Hard drive space is not an issue. Just get a 500Gb Laptop HD and you're cool. It's amazing that Sony hands you the tools to mod the system and get some extra benefits out of it, and you just throwing the things back at them. lol

Well losing features is the price to pay for "affordability" I guess.

You need to stop killing my sorrow you know. Leave me to my hackless misery!

Anyway, they took out otherOS now.

lol. Ok boss.

Anyway, they took out otherOS now.

How does that stop you from installing Linux on your current non-slim PS3?

It's not perfect, but why not get more out of your investment?
