Like Shipwreck, I was also interested in streaming SNES gameplay. I found this video about streaming gameplay, which though from 2011, is still pretty relevant. It's not about SNES streaming, but gives some basic information:
My Twitch channel:
I used a Hauppauge HD PVR 2 Gaming Edition. It does not come with composite input, but for around $20 you can get an accessory for that. The previous HD PVR had composite input, however with that version you require an AV splitter, as it won't split the signal to output it to your television. The version I have will, but outputs via HDMI. So, it will require an AV splitter for playing on an older tv set. Playing straight from the capture preview on your computer monitor will only work for games that don't require quick input, as there is a 3 second delay.
Unecessary details:
I used XSplit to stream. I selected the screen region of ArcSoft ShowBiz (software bundled with HD PVR 2) that displays the capture preview. I didn't mess around with the audio settings on XSplit. It seems that it grabs whatever is coming out of the computer. If you have your stream running in a web browser, make sure to have it muted. I deleted a video of mine, as it had an echo, due to that.
I am interested in the zombie ninja game.
The text is out of whack, because I got signed out while writing my post. So, I copied and pated it, resulting in weird colors and underlining that does not show in the post preview.

For my first video, one of the SNES audio outputs was very weak, so I ended up using several AV cables in order to get the video and audio to my television & the HD PVR. The audio ended up being buzzy. I swapped out the AV for that of my N64. The 2nd video seems fine.
