It seems that this emulator requires you to use a command-line interface to boot up a ROM game.

To increase emulation performance, Supermodel underclocks the emulated PowerPC CPU by default, to 49 MHz. As Model 3 games were generally not CPU-bottlenecked, this avoids wasting native CPU time on emulating idle cycles, and has very little effect on most games. Users on less-powerful computers can underclock the emulated CPU to as low as 25 MHz and maintain playability in some games. Likewise, other users may wish to run the emulator at the proper speed of 66 MHz for a more accurate experience. The clock speed can be changed using PowerPCFrequency in the config file or by passing the -ppc-frequency argument. | To increase emulation performance, Supermodel underclocks the emulated PowerPC CPU by default, to 49 MHz.
