        This theme is being actively developed, a great deal of work has been put into the theme and art so please do not use the graphics I have created in other projects (with the exception of any graphics that are an exact copy of of those from the real 'NES classic'/'Famicom mini' menu).

        You are free to modify the theme for your personal use only - please do not share modified versions of this theme.

            @ruckage I've done the CPS1, CPS2, & CPS3. Probably not as good as you would do. Would you like me to send to you for to look over, tweak, etc?

              I know your a busy guy, is there any chance you can add the "½" character to the nes font?, i came across some snes games based on the manga and anime series Ranma ½. and currently theres no other way of displaying only as 1/2 ,

              cheers bud.

                  @ruckage Man, you work fast! That'll go great with the Super Tinytendo case I'm ordering for my Pi 3 next week.

                    @ruckage good job!
                    My version does not look so epic, but still, it can be useful to someone.

                      I love the progress this theme is going through. I'd love to see something like a PS1 theme to go with my machine, but I understand stuff like this can take time, I won't rush @ruckage because I think rushing people is NOT a good idea.

                      Please forget that mistake I did.

                        @ruckage I'm looking forward to the US SNES theme! It will go great with the new Tinytendo case that just came out. Will it be available on this thread, or are you going to make a separate thread for it?

                            Thanks. I'll probably start a new topic when I have more to show but I'll post in here to let everyone know - it's coming along nicely.

                              I already began work and posted pics of both a Super Famicom and US SNES Classic based theme 2 days ago.......

                              Here's the US style SNES classic theme. I had to have the system logos at the top in this version as space at the bottom was limited so some logos wouldn't fit. The backdrop is just a placeholder at the moment (it shows the SFC/EU style snes), I'll redraw it so that it features the US style SNES.

                              This took longer than I thought but after many hours of work I can show some previews of the Super Famicom/Snes Classic theme. It may change before I release it but this gives you an idea of how it will look. I based it on what screenshots I could get from youtube videos, it's not an exact copy but as with the nes mini theme that isn't my intention. I've adapted it to suit a base resolution of 480x270 (this scales evenly to 1080p) and have adjusted the border art to fit the existing logos I've made for the nes mini theme. I'm working on the US SNES border now so will post previews of that next.

                              I think I'll probably start a new topic for this, I'll post a link to it when I start it.

                                        @ruckage Hey. Says Moscow.
                                        Please do not think that I'm trying to take your merit. It's just that I'm currently interested in retropie and pixel graphics, and all I do is look at it as a pleasant pastime, not a way to make money on it.
                                        And about my thread about the modification of your theme - I was clearly stated there that I'm not going to spread the link without your consent. I did not even expect that you would agree to this. But it could have been done differently - to release the modification (PSX-MINI) in co-authorship. I could send you the source code for this theme to come out in your name, but with an indication of my participation.
                                        I do not know why, but you just ignored that thread, and my request to answer. So let everything remain as it is.

                                        Aloha from Russia, and sorry for my bad English. ¯\(ツ)/¯

                                          It's nothing personal and while I appreciate you have put time and effort into making your mod I have made my feelings clear regarding modifications/contributions to my themes both in the readme included with the themes and numerous times in this thread and it gets a bit tiresome repeating the same responses over and over (here's a link to a post @TMNTturtlguy made ;) ).

                                          While I'm flattered that you and so many other people have been inspired by this theme and want to contribute in various ways my position for the time being remains the same, that I wish to work on it alone. I hope you understand.

                                          You are of course free to modify it as you wish for personal use.

                                          Since you're obviously interested in theme making have you considered making your own theme from scratch? It can seem a daunting task but it really isn't all that difficult once you get started (it's easier than ever with some of the recent additions to ES such as default themes and variable support). And if you get stuck you can always ask for help in the forum and there are lots of people, including myself, who can help.

                                            @ruckage Composite display resolutions are fixed to 720x576 PAL and 720x480 NTSC. So even if the display is 320x240 composite will yield resolution based on the mode PAL/NTSC. A DPI screen showing exact 320x240 will not have a problem but if using the same screen with composite pcb will cause scaling and hence theme will be disrupted.
