FCEUX is an open source Nintendo Entertainment System and Family Computer Disk System emulator. It is a merger of various forks of FCE Ultra.
The Win32 version of FCEUX does not currently support TCP/IP network play functionality. The most recent win32 version to support this feature was FCE Ultra 0.98.9. TCP/IP support is currently working in the SDL port of FCEUX.
An integrated GTK2 GUI was added to the SDL port of FCEUX in version 2.1.3. This GTK GUI deprecated the previous python frontend, gfceux.
It has been ported to DOS, Linux (with either SVGAlib or X), Mac OS X (its SDL port should also work on other Unix-like platforms such as FreeBSD, Solaris and IRIX), Windows, GP2X,PlayStation Portable, the Nintendo GameCube, Wii,PlayStation 2 and Pepper Pad.
FCE Ultra was forked from FCE (Family Computer Emulator). Its last full release was version 0.98.12 in August 2004, while a pre-release version 0.98.13-pre was released in September 2004 as source code only. After that, development appeared to stop and the homepage and forums for the emulator were taken down.
In the absence of official development, many forks of FCE Ultra were created. Most notable are FCEU-MM, which supports many new and unusual mappers,FCEU Rerecording, which incorporates many useful features for tool-assisted speedruns, and FCEUXD SP, which adds a number of debugging utilities.
