Homebrew WIP SNES Classic Launcher For Nintendo Switch

KneeDoctor · Jun 9, 2019

Hello, I have a couple requests for this wonderful app, and I hope you are able to add these features overtime;
1. Adding suspend points for games
2. Adding border customization like in the actual SNES Classic
Thank you so much in advance. This app is so great and these features would make it perfect.

I saw 2 thumnails folders
If I want to add more games, what specs need the thumnails in what dimensions I need to have them?, What's your discord, Twitter account

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working on an app for Nintendo Switch that is like the SNES Classic menu, but with an emulator built right in.

I’ve been testing it on my beta discord server with people and they seem to like it so far. Here is one user who has tested it:

Try it out if you like! Via my Discord:

Will update the thread as progress continues.

Could you perhaps share your thumbnails folder?

Well, I don't collected all SNES games. I collected what I liked and that's about it. Why can't you just make your thumbnails folder ? it's easy. Sorry that I couldn't help you with because I don't collected all games at all. Only games that I really liked.

can someone make a nsp fowarder for this please?

Anyone have a link to this, that we can actually access? OP Link needs access to GDRIVE.

It is still in WIP and he is no longer working on it? I hope you are still working on it. Don't give up.

I would love to see that too. I have a SNES Classic but it would make it perfect too!

Fantastic!!!

I see you left the Discord server, if you aren't working on this any more I really hope you consider releasing the source code you have so far.
It'd be a shame for this to just disappear.

I agree with this, this is such a unique project that has already shown a lot of promise and popular appeal just with beta releases. Having it disappear so soon would be sad, as there seem to be plenty of Switch projects that have been left half-complete as of late. I know that I certainly wanted to use it more regularly myself with just a few more tweaks

This is a project that used copyright infringing art assets, and a baked in emulator that was never going to be supported be the developer in any extent. This was a glorified skin, and a project that ensured, that people would never enjoy state of the art emulation - with featuresets that could be provided by the likes of retroarch or native ports of certain emulators.

It served as point of contention as well - because people assumed that this was a port of Nintendos own SNES emulator (name currently escapes me), just because of looks and appearances.

It might be half a shame, and half a blessing, that this didnt take off.

Looks AMAZING!!!

frankadank · Jul 8, 2019

Don't let this unique project die, release the source code!

this was a project that used the original assets from the SNES classic, on discord it was being pitched as a small binary that would read the theme on the classic and present a UI functionally equivalent to the original but without the various bugs.

it was also going to have support for the rewind functionality of the SNES with other retroarch cores that didn't really have true random (like NES, SNES, and others)

the version on the SNES/NES wouldn't have included anything except logic, no assets...

the switch version that he had going afaik was going to require the user to copy the assets from their own classic

The developer is quiet.

samthebreadman · Jul 16, 2019

Folks, I’m sorry to say I lost interest in this project and won’t be doing anything else with it.

Nintendo will come out with SNES Online soon I’m sure and we’ll all be having a fun time when that day comes.

Thanks for your time.
