It's amazon prime automatically displaying an item at its highest price. I wouldn't think it would be that expensive. But hey maybe, I got one myself and it's a quality product. Maybe it is worth it, idk.

It's amazon prime automatically displaying an item at its highest price. I wouldn't think it would be that expensive. But hey maybe, I got one myself and it's a quality product. Maybe it is worth it, idk.
I think there's a few Chrono Trigger borders on the Custom Borders page.

Quick question. I followed the instructions on this page:
http://snesclassicmods.com/how-to-add-more-games-to-snes-classic-mini/
But it ends up hanging at the end and giving me this error: "Your device is taking a long time to reboot. You can wait some more and try the action again if it co mes online after a while. Use Tools > Reboot to get back to normal operation from recovery mode"
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. The snes mini shows up as NES mini in my device manager after the driver has been installed. Hakchi shows up as hitting 28% before the reboot. I installed the driver as instructed, so that doesn't appear to be the issue, but when hakchi tries to reset the snes mini, it stops showing up in device manager and the power light comes on after Hakchi attempts to reboot. What do I need to do here? It's at 28% (waiting on device) when this happens.
Also, I was wanting to apply this patch to Chrono Trigger: http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/3147/
The actual zip has a readme that lists this:
For these patches to be compatible with Canoe, and therefore on the SNES Classic without RetroArch, you will need to obtain the patch by Sluffy and pimpinelephant at the link below. I have been told that Preset ID 110B + 03 is the way you want to get this to work natively. This is made using Skydark+Name Liberties as a base.

I've downloaded that patch but it's not an IPS patch, its a .bps patch. How do I patch this with Lunar IPS?

The device has a different name in each mode. Just keep trying the reboot method. Once you're done your good, you only need to do this once.
It doesn't look like it's being recognized in the mode where it's supposed to reboot. Is there another driver I'm missing?
My Google-fu has been exhausted. :(
I'm trying to get a Famicom Disk System game to load on my SNES Classic using Kyland's core set. It just kicks me back to the SNES Classic screen with a floating suspend point. Here's my command line: /bin/nestopia /var/games/CLV-D-HMBBW/Super_Mario_Brothers_2.fds. I've tested it with km_RetroArch 173 Xtreme NetPlay Edition and km_RetroArch 173 Standard NetPlay Edition. No joy. :( I think it may want a BIOS file because regular NES games run fine. But I don't know where to put it, if anywhere. Can anyone help me troubleshoot?

I've been trying this shit all evening and it still doesn't reboot after attempting to install the custom kernel. Wtf.
I think the biggest problem is how hard it is to keep up with all the new developments. We should update the OT with some compilation of recent happenings, and of the state of things like RetroArch? (Have they fixed the input lag yet?). Everything is scattered everywhere and gets lost in the flood of troubleshooting posts and whatnot.
Canoe patch updates are still in the same place.
There's the romhacking thread, there's the patch doc, there's robin's site. For retroarch or snes mods stuff, there's that snesmods site and the snesmods reddit.
And by the way, pimpin fixed Act Raiser 2 completely now. The slowrom fix doesn't slow down the game anymore.

I know y'all are Canoe focused on here (me too) BUT it looks like the ever manic KMFDManic has figured out a way to get BS-X Satellaview roms running on Retroarch. (release coming on monday 18th, apparently). This is super exciting for me, because there are heaps of games on BSX which were never converted into formats that Canoe could handle. Granted, we got some of the best games, like Daisuki Golf and BS Zelda, but there are tons of hidden gems still to be toyed with.
I am looking forward to adding a Satellaview folder to my main menu. I already have a .zip full of BSX games - many already translated - I could never play.
What BSX games are you looking forward to trying out?
UPDATE: It has been released. But it doesn't look like you care. Oh well.

I like that idea. Although there is a lot of information on other sites and on reddit, I find it all a bit convoluted.
So the re-release of the NES Mini, while having nothing new for the player, has a new firmware version and actually uses the SNES Mini board rather than the original NES Mini board. Also a dev of hakchi2 CE posted this:
So are we aware of any actual emulator improvements to NES-Canoe (idk the actual name for it) ? That one guy posted in here a while back saying some stuff was fixed or improved.
I just got back into my SNES mini after a long haitus
I had so many fucking issues trying to get Hakchi to work. For some reason it would not recognize my console when I tried to load in games but would do it just fine when dumping the kernal.
Using CE and a new USB drive and completely uninstalling and reinstalling worked.
Working my way through Zelda 1 right now and causually plopping down some Tetris NES runs whenever I feel like it.

Doubt it. Maybe if they include the same firmware they used for that special edition Famicom Mini with all the Jump games, then yes, it would have compatibility for more games and mappers.
Hey Guys, I am on hackchi2 2.20 and have a fair few games getting the C7 error. I have my folders set to 45 games max, I am wondering if the ROMS themselves are bad or if upgrading to hackchi2 CE 1.10 is worth trying? Or should I just try and download ROMS from somewhere else and re-add them?
To add to that - on some of my games the music skips quite a bit
Also do you need retroarch as well as the SFROM Tool and patches in this thread? Or is it one or the other? And what is the best 'setup' to have currently? I am just using the base canoe atm

"Several"? Several what? NES Classics? Bastard, you could have sold me one!
2.20 is very old. I would update to latest CE in your case, or 2.21f (my personal preference)
Check the compatibility doc for your non-working games:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12HKfz4ZQBy6Ip5awvh8t2aV5cVswYlnsdKxn9xoIW2Y
If the list says they work, then you have a bad rom. If it says it works with a patch, then patch the rom. If it says it doesn't work, then use retroarch.
Ok I'll give that a try, thanks for the help! I am a bit of a noob when it comes to this. And from the research I've been doing its kind of confusing to say the least.
Finally got around to doing this. One question though. How do I know if a game I added got auto patched? Like I did the sfrom tool thing from the second post but don't know if it is so automatic that there isn't even a popup about being patched or not.
I guess would Terranigma just launching and playing mean it was patched?

Correct. The fact that Terranigma works means you set it up correctly.
Cool, thanks. For the response and the thread in general.
Guess I should try messing around with custom borders and filter options now. There is no way to add extra filter options to the actual in device menu, right? Just the command line stuff?
i recently learned that you can emulate psx games with the snes classic. are playstation games playable with the snes controller though?
i've used the version of hackchi that came out right when the snes classic released so i'm thinking about updating/doing a reinstall to get all the new features if it's not too much work but i don't know where to start and what to do
