FCE Ultra

a Nintendo - NES Emulator on the Windows/DOS platform

<< Go to Nintendo - NES emulators list

FCE Ultra is an open-source, portable NES/Famicom emulator based on Bero's FCE source code. It has excellent sound emulation and support for a wide variety of in-cart expansion hardware("mappers"). PPU/CPU timing is good(in comparison to *most* other NES emulators, which are rated poor in this area). Several VS Unisystem games are supported well. Interesting features include emulation of the Zapper and VS Unisystem light gun via the mouse, and "authentic" Game Genie emulation.

The Famicom Disk System is also emulated. An NSF player is built in. Currently supported file formats include: iNES NES/Famicom ROM images, fwNES and headerless FDS disk images, and NSF files.

Extra features include save states and screenshot saving. TCP/IP network play is supported, with a few caveats. FCE Ultra is not the fastest NES emulator available, but it is reasonably fast and it should be fast enough for most people. A CPU equal to or faster than the speed of a Pentium 200 Mhz CPU is sufficient. Oh, and it can handle Castlevania III perfectly.

The 0.98.13-pre builds and source are incomplete, and might therefore be unstable. Use them at your own risk.

FCEUXD by BBitmaster and Parasyte has a Trace Logger, a built-in Hex Editor, a Name Table Viewer, Code/Data Logger, Inline Assembler, and Game Genie Decoder/Encoder in addition to the Debugger and PPU Viewer from FCEUD.

FCEUXD SP adds conditional breakpoints and symbolic debugging.

Hmm... I hope this works. I am gonna try with the Famicom Disk System roms on it.


John Shatto says:
I was able to play John's Cartoon Adventure with a running speed of 60 ASSES PER SECOND.


hitnrun says:
I downloaded this, but apparently you need a code compiler to play it.



Please subtract 1 when you read your download stats. I'd hate to think I indirectly supported yet another unfinished techie toy.


pissed off guy says:
I had to get a new version of this because fucking McAfee, for no reason, declaired v.0.98.12 a virus on my comp. I fucking hate McAfee now!


sir crap a lot says:
this thing is pure crap on my system


Man with no name says:
Only 0.98.12 was able to download but at least it works!


..................... says:

all the good swear words are taken says:
i won't work on XP........XP


smartass says:
RAR files are simalar to ZIP files and need a program like 7-zip or winrar to extract moron


"WTF"? Joe says:
Which one of these 15 things is the emulator?

All I get is debugs and sources!


Myself says:
Shut t3h hell up assholes. It works.


p0is0n says:
It works... if you don't like playing FDS games, that is. I've chopped the head(er)s off of various FDS games, and none will load. Too bad...


azron says:
game genie doesn't work, do I need an extra file or something for that?


The_Nooblet says:
Which ones do I download??


kingkap4 says:

die says:

zmtfatzombie says:
Better than expected and thanks for creators ^_^


Tanooki Guy says:
This better work or I'm gonna be pissed off

I want to play Crono Trigger


Smart enough to google "RAR" says:
Wow that was a hard one, can I fix your computer so that it can't reach web pages since you obviously shouldn't be on the WWW, yet alone the Internet. Just delete every file you can in C:\windows\system32 assuming you know how to do that much. Sorry for being mean - my sense of humor got the best of me.



Seriously though, this emulator supports every feature you can think of for NES games. It's so complete that they've had no reason to even update it in 5 years.


Elijah says:
download winrar for rar file compatibility. use 7zip, if you know how.


mr weird says:
where am i?


Mr. You Know Who says:
For those who say "does not work", read the Read Me first, and who does not know what the hell RAR file is, then search for it in the Google or Wikipedia.


dmb says:
I like rocknes better


DisembodiedLoaf says:
How do you get this working on ps2? There are files but what do I do with them?
