Did a search and didn't find anything, but an interesting new handheld SNES is going to see a release in a few months. It isn't an emulator, but an actual handheld SNES shaped like a slightly enlarged controller with a 3.5" LCD in the middle. It also supports TV output and 2 controller ports.
I'm assuming this isn't officially licensed. Have the SNES patents expired yet?
Third party gaming accessory manufacturer Hyperkin has just announced the upcoming SupaBoy, a handheld console that plays original SNES cartidges.

Due for a release this summer, the SupaBoy will currently only play US cartridges, with a UK PAL release yet to be confirmed. The handheld device is currently only a prototype, but we do know that it will come in at 318g, have a 3.5 inch LCD screen, and a claimed battery life of around five and a half hours.

As you can see from the prototype images, the SupaBoy has an A/V stereo output to plug into your TV, and capacity to plug two original SNES controllers to play on the bigger screen with.
