I think Nintendo would have rushed to push out improved development tools over developing a full-blown emulator. Could very easily have been a repackaged version of SNES96 or SNES9x based on the evidence he's provided. Plausible story but I'm siding with MVG on the theory that it's a very elaborate hoax. It was always "NCL".Īmusing how in all the years since there have been no more leaks or corroborations of this thing's existence within Nintendo. Also, no Nintendo employee would write "NoJ".

That bit about the anonymous Nintendo exec having the idea to sell the games on PC sounds exactly like an emulation enthusiast's fan-fiction. That led to people believing the story until it sunk in how fake the rest of the story seemed. As MVG noted it had transparency, which SNES9x did not at that time. Out of fear of reprisal, they went quiet for a while, during which Silhouette came around.

The team had approached Nintendo about potentially licensing SNES9x for selling games on PC, but Nintendo got back to them with a contract that said "we the devs of SNES9x agree to be sued for every penny we have". IIRC Silhouette appeared during SNES9x's "hibernation".

It had the same menu bar (albeit with half the options in them stripped out), and even changed video modes the exact same way the Mac SNES9x did. Turned out it ran exactly like SNES9x, just with some minor tweaks. A brand new SNES emu sounded exciting, and I even had access to a Mac to play it on. I remember when this first appeared on the scene.
