I need some advice about transferring external ROM's to the SNES console. I'm looking for a piece of hardware that I can transfer a ROM file from my computer over to the SNES. I also need support for any enhancement chips that are required by the ROM - (correct my if I'm wrong but I'm told that hardware to do this is rare)

So, to sum it up ... I have ROM file on my computer. I want to play it on my SNES via cable/cartridge/whatever and I need it to support enhancement chips, particularly DSP-1.

Also, do I need to consider PAL/NTSC with hardware? Ideally I would like to work on a PAL SNES with development.

What options do I have? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

DSP1 is supported by many devices. Most other chips are not. A new product called SD2SNES will support a few more chips but still not all.

If you are wanting to "develop" software, you can always use BSNES the emulator which is highly accurate.

Yeah I've come across the BSNES but I use Mac and I can only seem to find a really old binary and the latest source doesn't compile Sad

I do really want to stay with the hardware despite it being a pricey route but I also want to get up to speed with the BSNES.

This is exactly what I'm after. Thanks for the link.
