FBZX is a ZX Spectrum emulator originally written by Sergio Costas.

Now, a Wii port is being handled by 'Oib', and it just got its first version, which uses SDL Wii.

These are so far the emulator features:

* Emulates acurately the Original 48Kspectrum (both issue 2 and issue 3), the classic 128K, the Amstrad Plus 2, the Amstrad Plus 2A and the Spanish 128K. This include screen, keyboard and sound (both speaker and AY-3-8912 chip).
* Screen emulation is extremely accurate, so it can emulate border effects and even attribute effects.
* Supports Z80 snapshots, both loading and saving, and loading .SNA snapshots.
* Supports TAP (both read and write) and TZX (only read) tape files, supporting normal speed loading and fast speed loading.
* Emulates up to 2 joysticks: kempston, cursor and sinclair1 and sinclair2.
* All the wiimote, nunchuck and classic controller buttons and joypad are fully configurable.
* Virtual keyboard support.
* Emulates the Interface I and Microdrive.
* Emulates the ULAPlus
* Based in a new, fully free, Z80 emulator (Z80Free).

And here are the installation instructions:

Untar the binary release on your SD card, which gives you a structure as follows:

/fbzx-wii/fbzx
/fbzx-wii/spectrum-roms
/fbzx-wii/tapes
/fbzx-wii/snapshots
/fbzx-wii/microdrives
/fbzx-wii/scr
/apps/fbzx-wii

Put .z80 and .sna files in /fbzx-wii/snapshots or .tap and .tzx files in /fbzx-wii/tapes on your SD card.

The rom are in /fbzx-wii/spectrum-roms. Although Amstrad is the current proprietary of the copyright of the original ZX Spectrum ROMs, they have kindly given their permission for its redistribution with Spectrum emulators.
