You are the first person to 'confirm' that. Most have said it doesn't.

Japanese games are already in NTSC format. Only Europe used PAL 50hz which means games need to be modified to run at correct speed on NTSC emulators/hardware.
Yeah i didn´t knew it before but someone said, that
Does anyone know if they can play MSU-1 games?:unsure:
i don´t know, but i dont think so

that would be my idea too, typically just adding the ones I really own (or want to play like seiken densetsu 3 in english) so I could play from the comfort of my little snes, instead of dusting one of my 3 snes.

I don't see the point in adding a full romset (especially knowing the ui is really not made to browse 1000 games)


Let's see there is about 721 games in the North American set...

Maybe another 20 games that EU got that the US didn't...

Maybe another 20-30 games in Japanese that have been translated, and who knows the number of games that don't require translations due to lack of any 'text'...

Of course lots of games had multiple versions like Super Street Fighter... or many sports games... Take your pick of favorite version, and you don't need every version...
 
I don't see an NTSC patch there for Exhaust Heat (there is a Jap version of the game, but iirc all the text in that version is in Japanese and it makes it impossible to play, unless you speak Japanese which I don't).
Would it be possible edit 2nd headers emulation speed from from 50 to 60

Remember this patch, if you are going to add Terranigma to your SNES mini in the future. It converts the game to 60hz over the PAL 50hz, so it won't look as shimmery.

Afaik you can switch any PAL SNES ROM to 60Hz with a simple hex edit, but there may be issues with video and audio being out of sync on certain areas. That is the case for Terranigma. Do you know if this patch is different and doesn't have out of sync issues?

Alright, this is just freaking awesome! I played (SD) Snatcher on my MSX-2 before the Sega CD release, I really want to try this Sega CD version on my SNES Mini. Nice work!

I got it down to 319 Mb, intact videos and music, compressed! I am doing this overhaul to the entire Sega CD Set, and should be done by the end of the week. Over 95 percent of the Sega CD games are viable for use on the Mini NES! Feel free to private message if you have any questions:)

UPDATE 10-3-17 (Next on my agenda throughout this week will be to put together a video showcasing two specific things. One will be running 7zipped Arcade Games! The other will be how to add multiples of the same game! I am also overhauling the entire Sega-CD Set (for those of you aware of v2.5!). I am currently working on to have 2 versions of each respective game. One will be intact with full audio & video. The other will be ripped of unnecessary audio, where applicable. Watch the Snatcher video, linked to in yesterday's update, to get a better feel for how things will be as an end result! And, be sure to try out the two Sega CD Demos also linked to! Currently, Digital Leisure does conversions for the great Dragon's Lair 1, 2, and Space Ace. I have legitimately purchased them on PS3, DVD, and wherever else I possibly could. I have always loved these games! Anyways, thanks so much for the appreciation and tuning into my daily thread! Keep checking back daily for my Updates and other general thoughts! Great things will come! I will make sure of it! When I am close to a revelation, modification wise, I push myself, even on little sleep...just so I can go to sleep knowing I achieved yet another cool as hell thing to share with you all! As always, feel free to ask anything and everything relative to NES Classic Modding via responses in this thread, or private message!

You will be able to run all of these in compressed form (gzip), using the default SNES Classic Emulator:) There may be a few unsupported mappers! But, we will still have RetroArch, in those instances!
 

So the new version of Hackchi2 just needs to automatically 'gz' any roms you attempt to add to the system eh?

I haven't tried the patch far enough to notice any issues with the sound or video. It does look less 'janky' though and runs smoother.

So my guess is that its more than simply changing the hz. You could always read the patch notes?

Seconded, I've tested the Terranigma patch and it runs NTSC just fine.
 
Here they are SNES Mini and NES Mini online manuals for offline use (all files are svilable at Nintendo official site).

Mmmmmmhhhhhh just figured out that html pages are in Italian, I downloaded the wrong folder... but manuals are "common" between languages so... it should be suitable :P

And don't forget there's the brand new Star Fox 2 manual with all new illustrations. Also included here is the full Earth Bound players guide that originally came with the game.
