The record

Purpose: SNESticle Revive is a PlayStation 2 homebrew emulator for SNES and NES games.
SNES support: It uses the original SNESticle SNES core and lists support for coprocessors including DSP-1, DSP-2, CX4, OBC1, S-DD1 and S-RTC.
NES support: The project integrates InfoNES for NES emulation, with audio connected to the PS2 audio path.
Video: The PS2 video backend uses gsKit and offers 480i by default and 1080i with a centered 4:3 viewport.
Cover art: The ROM browser can display PNG box art, title screens, gameplay screenshots, logos and extra images, with an optional build-time Libretro art download.
Audio: The ROM browser and pause menu can play MOD and XM tracker music, and the emulator has separate game-volume and menu-music controls.
Save states: SNES and NES cartridge save states support five slots and USB, memory-card, MMCE and internal-HDD storage, with ROM and CRC validation and two-bank writes.
Storage: Supported sources include USB storage, MX4SIO SD cards, internal HDD, memory cards, MMCE carts, discs or ISOs, optional HostFS, and one configured read-only SMB share.
Network access: SMB networking starts only when the user connects to or selects the SMB source; the configured share is read-only.
Build requirements: Building requires PS2SDK and produces a PlayStation 2 ELF, with an ISO available through the Makefile's ISO target.
Known limits: NES FDS save states are unsupported, and some SNES special-chip games are rejected for save states until those chips can be serialized.
Performance limits: The project notes that heavy NES scenes can exceed the 16.6 ms frame budget and drop to 30 fps under vsync.
License: The current source tree is licensed under GNU GPL v3 or later, while the original recovered SNESticle source retains its MIT grant.
Project status: GitHub says the repository was archived by its owner on October 4, 2026, and is read-only.
