Comments

Bought yesterday an nintendo switch and asked for the SNES the worker at the store said, they are already sold out cuz of to much reserve. I love Germany -.-.

Next option to get it will be on ebay for the double of the price
 
If I pick one up it'll be for reselling to dumb people. I already have all of these on emulator. So what? No pixel perfect emulation? I'll live. If I want that, I'll just dust off my SNES and play it.

I hope that eventually these emulators get decrypted and dumped. I'd sure love that pixel perfect mode on my Pi.
 
No pixel perfect emulation?
The SNES has a 256 (lines) x224 resolution:
  • if the HDMI resolution is 1080p, no problem about the lines (X4)
But what about the "wide" ?
  • if the pixels are not enlarged, you'll play in a small square (awful) !
  • Snes9x is able to enlarge the game itself, but that emulator will do it ? (I didn't find the answer)

Sure, but 256x224 is an 8:7 ratio. When it outputted to a CRT, the image was stretched and the pixels became rectangular to form a 4:3 ratio.

So pixel perfect would be playing the game the way the SNES internally produces the image. Versus playing how it looked on a CRT.
