No! I tried it and SFC art box resize was showing wrong. Same size as SNES art boxes and SNES art boxes are correct and SFC resize art box aren't. Didn't you read it ?

I need to know the exactly SFC art boxes resize to be correct.
why you want know? box art are 228x160 and thumbnails are 40x28

Precisely but not for SFC art boxes. It is 228X160 for box art but still incorrect. If you try it and you will know what I am talking about. Thumbnails are fine but not art boxes for Japan SFC art boxes. A little bit too big.

Anybody know if there's a key combination of some sort that gets you back to the menu when you want to switch game? Looked everywhere and I've tried every key can't work it out

I want to test this one too. The problem is that I don't liked those roms database.json so I edit it and removed all of them and add my favourite games in it. I make sure all names are match for artbox and thumbnails and all resize correctly. Run snes_classic and atmosphere crashes!

If I used page 1 untouched and it run fine. I don't understand ? Anybody?

This is a really fantastic idea, great work. The feel of the SNES-C is certainly there and I love it.

To those saying there's no reason to get an SNES Classic now, if that's how you feel it was never made for you. It's more of a collector's item. Sure, it's functional, works really well and is really cool once you deck it out with hackchi but as far as emulation and user experience goes it doesn't offer anything more than we what we've had for a very long time and in certain aspects it offers less... But DAMN does it ever look good sitting next to my Switch! And the controllers? Forget about it. Can't be beat! (Other than the originals, I guess)

Did you try it out ? It is not GREAT but it is very neat emulator for Switch. However... This is still a beta. It is not perfect yet, to be honest. There is a problem...

You can add few games in it and edit database.json along with games already in it. I don't liked those games so I removed them but I found out that you will have some issues with it. You cannot removed games from database.json to add more games in it because if you do then atmosphere will crashes when you launch snes_classic.

No, that just means that your json file is not valid. Run it through a json validator (google) and fix the errors. Works fine for me

Oh interesting. You are absolutely right. I saw a json validator online but I thought it doesn't mean anything. Yes, every games I want are working fine now. THANKS!

I have tried it out and while it won't ever be exactly what the SNESC is, I would say it adequately emulates the experience. I'm glad you sorted your issues out :) I don't imagine myself using this much, seeing as I have a classic and I use retroarch but I'm interested in giving everything a whirl.
