No BIOS or firmware files required. This core is self-contained.

Frozen snapshot of bsnes v085 downgraded to C++98 for old compilers (PS3). Performance profile only. is_experimental=true.

NEC DSP and Hitachi DSP firmware loaded from the ROM directory, not system_dir. Path: dir(interface->path(Slot::Base, ".dsp")) + firmware_name from game XML markup. interface->path() returns ROM basename + hint. ref: snes/cartridge/markup.cpp parse_markup_necdsp, parse_markup_hitachidsp ref: snes/libretro/libretro.cpp Interface::path()

RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY is never called. No file I/O targets system_dir anywhere in the codebase.

Core continues without DSP firmware but coprocessor games won't function.
