Hello, all
The 'data' that was mined back in January from the Switch NES app (now removed), I know there were references to the emulator used on the SNES-C, which is similar to what they're doing for the NES games (Using the emulator from the classic edition) but was there anything beyond references to canoe and the list of games? Was there actual data there for the emulator or any games? I guess not or someone would've activated it somehow.
The reason I'm dragging this up is now with the ability to inject NES games into the app, I wonder if there was data there for the emulator couldn't one theoretically inject an SNES title? Of course, I'm sure additional setup would be required, pointing it to canoe which most likely was never even present in the first place... But if the data indicated any sort of structure I wonder how hard it would be to actually assemble... Man, I wish I knew how to do code magic... Never too late to learn!
Additionally, what are everyone's thoughts on the possibility of an official SNES app for online subscribers? Did they give it the axe? Was it put there to generate hype?
I think it would add a lot of value to the online subscription. Sure, they're the same old games most of us have played before but it would be silly to only have a virtual NES.. I think it's an inevitability that we'll see it eventually! (Another opportunity to sell a pair of overpriced SNES styled switch controllers?)
