ZSNES crashes DOSBox often, because of the problems with pagefaults.

it crashes with:

Exit to error: Pagefault didn't correct page

Loading works fine here, didn't crash a single time.
Try to replace the cwsdpmi with a different
version, and be sure to mount a c-drive (or not).

Why not 😉

zsnes uses SDL just like DosBox, so it should run wherever dosbox runs.

Of course you are right, tracking bugs is nice, but the ultimate goal is to _play_, and using a native port is easier, faster and generally more enjoyable (screen resolutions, hardware acceleration, etc.).

I think zsnes dos is the only one with a debugger yet. And since dosbox can run on mac and zsnes can't ... well ... this is only one example, i'm sure there are more.
