Spoiler alert.

This is not emulated. This is not some overpriced SNES-to-HDMI adapter.
This is The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past running natively on Windows. It is ~70-80k lines of C code compiled into an executable that boots straight into the game. If it isn't obvious this is unofficial. No, I cannot give you the game as that is illegal.

Fortunately, Github links to relating projects are not: github.com/snesrev/zelda3

The point of this video is to showcase a couple of things, those being a) the game and the various graphical effects, items, sprites, and so forth to demonstrate the above point, and b) to show off the game running by itself in 4:3 and now 16:9 natively.
