For the cached download to work, your user must be in the trusted-users list or you can use sudo since root is effectively trusted.

Or, build yourself:

nix-build -A libretro.snes9x https://github.com/r-ryantm/nixpkgs/archive/145439370cd1fe973180f6b302533405076dd0f5.tar.gz

nix build github:r-ryantm/nixpkgs/145439370cd1fe973180f6b302533405076dd0f5#libretro.snes9x

After you've downloaded or built it, look at the files and if there are any, run the binaries:

ls -la /nix/store/llpn6vjj4wsx9b2j8wmz3ky95a6n2nvk-libretro-snes9x-0-unstable-2026-04-02
ls -la /nix/store/llpn6vjj4wsx9b2j8wmz3ky95a6n2nvk-libretro-snes9x-0-unstable-2026-04-02/bin
