Installing 32-bit stuff

I'm running 64-bit Trisquel 6.0
I want to install a program called zsnes:i386
I try to install it and I get this:
trisquel@thinkpad:~$ sudo apt-get install zsnes:i386

I looked around quite a bit on the forums for a solution. I can't find anything recent that will work. Is there an exact process for doing this? It would be really nice.
One thing I might suggest is trying with aptitude instead of apt-get. It still won't work, but you might get some more information than that all these packages are "not going to be installed".
I don't know how to use aptitude and have never used it before. I don't know what information I need.
I marked it for installation and at the bottom of the terminal it says these packages are "Unsatisfied" under the dependencies:
libao4
libc6
libgcc1
libgl1-mesa-glx
libpng12-0
libsdl1.2debian
libstdc++6
zlib1g
What should I do?
aptitude's main commands are the same as apt-get. So, "sudo aptitude install zsnes:i386", in this case. This is just to hopefully get some more information about the problem (aptitude's error messages tend to be more useful than apt-get's).
I attached the output after putting in that code. Hopefully that's enough information about the problem. What should I do next?

If you insist on installing zsnes, you'll need to add architecture support for 32 bit. I personally recommend **Higan** for 64 bit systems.
sudo apt-get install higan
To add 32 bit architecture support (in case you insist on zsnes) ->
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Then you install zsnes as you would normally
sudo apt-get install zsnes
Yes I have tried higan but it does not have everything I want that zsnes has
Here's what happened when I tried your second option:
trisquel@thinkpad:~$ sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
dpkg: error: unknown option --add-architecture
Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages [*];
Use `dselect' or `aptitude' for user-friendly package management;
Type dpkg -Dhelp for a list of dpkg debug flag values;
Type dpkg --force-help for a list of forcing options;
Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;
Options marked [*] produce a lot of output - pipe it through `less' or `more' !

Well, the command I gave you works for me. Try doing the fix as described in the link above.
I ran the suggested command:
sudo sh -c "echo 'foreign-architecture i386' > /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch"
nothing happened, still get the same error
