1. Super Nintendo SNES ROM’s SMC
If the SMC file is of Super Nintendo by Nintendo, then it is a game file type that will contain ROM digital images of copies created with the cartridge for Nintendo’s Super Nintendo gaming system (SNES) in Super Magicom format. Super Nintendo is an entertainment system that consists of a 16-bit gaming console created by Nintendo. The console accommodates cartridges that create game files that are copied with the SMC file extension. To play an SMC file, like any other old console games on your system, you need a ROM and an emulator You can download (free) from a variety of SNES emulators from Emulator Zone. Every emulator mentioned above is a little bit different, but they serve one basic purpose: they let you play the ROMs. Let us have a quick tour of how emulators work, using Snes9X as an example. Console Emulators generally don’t come with the installers; the way other Windows applications do. Instead, these programs are portable and can be run directly without installation. Everything they need to run is contained in the folder. You can store the folder as per your liking. After downloading and unzipping Snes9X emulator, it will look like: Now double click snes9x-x64.exe to launch the emulator, and a blank screen will be shown. Now click on the File menu and then click on Open and then browse for your ROM file. Open it and immediately, the game will start running. Now you can start playing the game. You can customize the control keys of the game, generally, customization is found under the “Input” section of the menu. You can even use a gamepad with the emulator if you have one. You can change the settings of any given emulator and you will be surprised to find control over all sorts of things, from framerate to sound quality to things like color schemes and filters.
Warning:
Sometimes the games that are stored in an SMC file are copyrighted, otherwise, the games may have been released for unrestricted use and are not copyrighted. You must use the ROM that you own or which is released for unrestricted access.
