Where do i find that?! i have NEVER seen it anywhere on the store!!!
There are only two games released so far and they are Super Mario World and F-Zero. To play any other games you would have to inject the rom into an existing VC title. Just search for VC rom injection. Or use the cia of BlargSNES and put the roms directly on your SD card.

afaik no version of blarg ever worked properly with alttp, and afaik the latest version doesn't boot it at all (and on the older versions it crashed when using the Pegasus boots), your best bet if you want to avoid rom injections is retroarch, pretty sure blargsnes is pretty much abandoned at this point

I use Blarg all the time. I will have to look and see what version I have. The only issue is games like pilot wing and star fox that use the special graphics chip.

The cia is in the zip folder. 1.3b is what I use.

there is almost certainly already a pre-made rom injection

hmmm maybe it received another update after the original dev threw a wobbler and made his own forum, last i remember alttp didn't work fully on any version

To be honest I have not tried alttp yet but I have not had any major issues with other games except for what I said earlier.

EDIT: It takes about 30 seconds to install so there is no harm in trying.

Pretty ALttP only works on blargSnes 1.2 and earlier. Either that or you can try out PocketSNES or CatSFC from RetroArch. I guess you could use Nintendo's crappy VC wrapper if you don't like the other options.

1.2 can be found on at the same link I posted earlier if 1.3b does not work.

Snes can be emulated very well. I use catsfc or pocketsnes from the retroarch package. Advantages over using snes VC would be possibility to use video filters, savestates and allowing the device to go to sleep during emulation. I also don't know of any games that don't work well emulated.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
