SNESX9 I would say is the 2nd best emulator for your SNES needs. It has the abilities to play on more platforms, but lacks the extra features of ZSNES. Don't get me wrong, it has tons of features, but it's like choosing between a V6 or V8 engine car. At one point, SNESX9 use to surpass ZSNES back in 02-03. Anyways, it's worth trying, comparing, and playing.

Information
Snes9x is a popular cross-platform emulator for the SNES. Initially the collaborative effort of Gary Henderson of snes96 fame and Jerremy Koot of snes97 fame, Snes9x was later maintained by Brad Jorsch and continues to be maintained by a small group of contributors.
Snes9x has several capabilities which its Super Famicom and Super Nintendo counterparts did not have; it can "smooth" the appearance of the screen through a variety of anti-aliasing schemes, and it has a better quality of sound output than the original console systems. In addition, it can create screenshots of games, it can "save" the game at any point by recording the game state, and it can capture sound files, saving them as SPC700 sound format files which can be played back by an external player or a specialized Winamp plugin, such as Alpha-II SPC player. Also included is a built-in Game Genie, which allows users to enter cheat codes for their games, and the ability to record tool-assisted speedruns. Unlike ZSNES, Snes9x is written in portable C++, and can easily be compiled and run on non-x86 architectures, also it can be used to play multiple games efficiently and to change the organization of the game pad while playing games.
