The PSP SNES emulator Snes9xTYL is being resurrected, it has been revealed.

The last official release on GitHub was in 2018, but @SrLinguicaVIVE has reported that esmjanus's emulator has been forked by a developer called OniMock.

In its existing form, Snes9xTYL supports netplay, zipped ROMs, IPS patches and more, but this revival will bring a host of new improvements and features.

"The main goal of revitalising this project is to improve compatibility and performance of specific SNES games over time," reports @SrLinguicaVIVE. "We already have new languages, 90% faster folder loading, a favourites games system, and more."

The GitHub for the projects adds:

"Snes9xTYL Mod is a resurrected and modernized fork of the classic Super Nintendo emulator for the PlayStation Portable (PSP) and PS Vita. This version focuses on performance optimizations, user convenience, and broader accessibility."
