Too lazy to do it myself. :P I think the name of his project was GenSpire.

to search any particular site in google just use

My topic has a link to an unbelievably well written Genesis emulator project source download. Porting that to the Nspire would be a cinch.
Keep trying.

I wonder if anyone will actually do it, since it has been 3 years since Ndless came out and there are still no SNES/Genesis emu x.x. Maybe there is just no more interest in Nspire coding anymore like 68K calcs or something.

Somebody needs to spark that interest. Wii hacking never seemed to fully die. I wouldn't know how to revive Nspire development though.
Keep trying.

Get people to make games!

If everyone is making games then people will want to "join in".

And with loads of games being made then some of them will get "famous".

And people will want to have some "fame" too so they will start programing.

And...

Well...

A man can dream, can't he?

Well the Wii was far more popular than TI calcs combined, so that might be why. The TI-Nspire is more of a niche interest, plus with everything that TI did to us from 2010 to 2011 this was enough to discourage most people from coding for it. At least the TI-84+CSE can be coded freely without hacks, but it's weaker so we can forget about a SNES/Sega emu on it.

Also on the Nspire, people seems less interested to make games than on Z80 calcs. This is probably because we already have 1000+ great games available for this calculator, thanks to Game Boy and NES emulation. We also have Doom and some ports of Z80 games, so most people probably don't feel like making anything new. Plus Ndless dev seems harder to start up with, because there are people who had troubles setting up the Ndless dev environment and stuff. Or it could just be that the Nspire lacks the old school/retro feel that the Z80 and 68K models have.

Could someone link me to a guide or even make a guide.

I tried it once but Msys and all that didn't seem to work.

The new SDK has pretty much everything included and is easy to install. Check https://ndlessly.wordpress.com/ndless-for-developers/ :).

By new do you mean it was released within the last two or three months? Maybe people having troubles with it were just using a different one?

If the TI-nspire can emulate the Genesis Console, then I will bet the possibility of emulation of Neo-Geo Arcade, since it uses the same dual Z80/68k processores of Genesis. (Metal Slug and King of Fighters on Nspire is awesome!)

However I didn't expected the Mini vMac come ported to nSpire, so I could add the Amiga Classic emulation as well   ;D
