Source: https://youtu.be/wAfPGAOGbpo

Few companies are as restrictive when it comes to emulating their vintage hardware or re-implementing old games on other architectures like Nintendo. So you can imagine, that we were quite surprised, when we learned about Silhouette. A SNES emulator that - as it seems - was actually developed in-house at Nintendo itself.

The Modern Vintagegamer looked into the details and provides a solid rundown with all information you want and need.

The story about this neat piece of software is quite interesting, since the initial author wants to stay anonymous. But I don't want to give too much away at this point, check out the video and see for yourself.
