Thanks to this patch, we now have the ability to play this classic game with the advanced CD-quality external sound, the so called MSU-1. The only setback here is, that this feature is compatible only with certain emulators: BSNES, Higan and also the SD2SNES device. All these are currently the only SNES emulators/devices which can run the advanced MSU-1 sound. But it is worth it. You might also want to be warned that the MSU-1 packages can contain as much as 100 songs, while having up to a gigabyte of data, which is not so easy to download.
