SNES mini classic games limit exceded...

[MetoMeto]

Hello guys!

I hacked my SNES mini classic (European) the other day, added few games just so i try the hack and so on...
Anyway, i decided to add more games and i noticed it adds additional folders automatically per 16 games or so.
Is that normal or can i extend the limit per folder....or o i need folder at all?

you can increase the number of games per folder. they say not to exceed 30 or you could have stability problems. if you want every game, you're going to need an otg device. there's room for all roms on the nes classic, but snes games are too large, so you'll be using usb. you can add up to like 50 or so to folders if need be. however, I strongly recommend 25-30. that's a good number.

Thank's for a reply!

Well i dont need every game, just some i really like and want to play or haven't play but always wanted, but i just thought that 16 games per folder is small. 30 sounds more reasonable because i don't want to have like 10 folders and browse through them, but one or two folders.
As i said, 30 games per folder sounds good since you mention stability issue!

So do i need to use folders at all and how do i manage those rom's now and rearrange them?

you can arrange them how you like, but I think it will be in alphabetical order no matter what. you can sort them differently by default with the snes classics built in sorting thing. I think you can have 60 games together, but it's not recommended. it's easier to find the game you want with it sorted like this: this is a pic of mine that I just took. 25 games per folder as you can see, and I think I have 30 folders. I have the entire north american collection.

I was thinking of sorting them in terms of putting them out of folders and merging two folders into one, so instead of 15 games per folder to have 25-30 games per folder.

I already have 15 games per folder but i want to add 10 more in the same folder but every time i add games using hakchi it automatically makes folders every 15 games. i want it to make every 25-30 games like you have in your picture.

I'm using the ce version. here's where that option is:

I have set to 30 and automatic but it still splits them into folders every 15 games.

 

[godreborn]

not sure why. 15 isn't even one of the options.

I used regular Hakchi2, i hacked the console and backed up kernel with it.
But i just downloaded the one you use, the Hakchi-CE.
When i open it and turn on the console i get this message:

I had no such problems with regular Hakchi2...

there's pretty much no chance of bricking. the kernel dump is the same for all system, so it's not system specific. I'd reflash to stock, then use ce to reflash the system to custom kernel.

So this message means to revert it to factory settings and wipe everything?
But i don't get it..whats out of date exactly?

 

[godreborn]

don't know. I'd select no, then reflash to stock. just use ce to flash the custom kernel when you're ready.

How?

I cant do it like this, i don't know what i'm even doing. I'll be just clicking buttons randomly.

This only happens on CE though...

just do what I tell you. I spent several weeks getting everything just perfect all games, all named right, correctly sized artwork (box covers), and just the games I wanted which was all north american plus some Japanese like final fantasy 5 with translation patches and hash fixes which I did myself. I even threw trials of mana on there with snes box art that someone made.

Hi!
Ok so i decided to do what you told me. Can you help please?

 

[godreborn]

did you uninstall the custom kernel?

 

[MetoMeto]

did you uninstall the custom kernel?

No i made a mess.

I literally dont know what im doing and there is no Hakchi tutorial anywhere (dont know why though, its so frustrating)

So i originally downloaded NOT "CE" but regular "hakchi2" instalation and hacked SNES mini, and dump of nand was made and i couldnt find it, and when i did i backed it up safely. So i thought i dont need the one in folder where it was dumped so i deleted it.

Now when i try to uninstall kernel or nand how i call it, hakchi2 is saying "no kernel dump found" (this hakchi is such a mess without a tutorial or manual i tell you. i literally dont know what im doing or where things should be).

And i also downloaded hakchi CE not instalable version but to start it from a folder.

I dont even know how to use this damn thing.

look up snes kernel for snes mini in google. I don't think we can share it here. it's the same dump for everyone, so what you find will work.
