Cardboard Mini NES + Nes mini and Famicom mini themes
-
@ruckage you made an incredible theme
-
I think the theme is great! No need to change things. I think that those who have these great improvement ideas should go ahead and learn how to customize their setups to suite their own needs, after all that is what 3/4 of the fun is with retropie!

For the majority of us it's definitely the tinkering that gives us the most enjoyment with retropie (otherwise we'd finish our projects and probably never come back :) ). -

Do yu like playing those games at all?" :D

-Game description starts scrolling down too fast (faster you can read), and then stays in the middle way too much. Then when it reaches the end it goes back to top instantly. Can this be improved?
Yea this can be improved. I shall make changes soon. Thanks for letting me know that.

Hey Ruckage, what windows build are you using for testing your theme? You've inspired me to make one, but I want to make sure what I test on supports all the features available.

Hi,
@jdrassa as an automated build that should always up to date https://github.com/jrassa/EmulationStation/releases/tag/continuous

Hi!
I adore your themes, they are gorgeous!
I run RetroPie on a 5:4 screen (it's what I had lying around), and your themes breaks a little there. I attached a screenshot showing both problems I found.
I have no idea how much effort it would be to fix this, but I'd be grateful if you tried :)
-
What is the resolution of your screen?
-
@ruckage sorry for forgetting that. It's 1280x1024.

@tobi
I'll see what I can do for a future version, unfortunately it takes a bit of time as lots of element have to be tweaked in order to fit a different aspect ratio. -
@ruckage Cool, thanks!

It seems like it's a little behind and missing collections looking at the 51 commits since last release for it.
I'll have to bother @jdrassa about it.
-
@systemlogoffsa The "51 commits" label is inaccurate. It should have the latest build. The process for updating the release doesn't update the associated tag. I need to look into a way to update that. You are not the first to ask about it.

Ah, thank you. I'm looking forward to using it to make a theme. :)

Great theme.
The best case to use for this: The Retroflag NESPi Case for Raspberry.The manufacturing quality is amazing
The actual price is < 20$
Pay attention to those who sell it more.
-
@lolo Yeah, my NESPI case just arrived this week and I love that thing. I also have the Tinytendo SNES case, but replaced it with this. So far it's the ultimate case. Seems to stay pretty cool too. The Tinytendo case caused my Pi to overheat while playing Chrono Trigger so I had to install a fan... not happening with the NESPI case, which seems to have better ventilation.

Is the power switch just a toggle?
-
The Power (Just a kill switch) and the Reset work well.
Even the packaging is pretty. ;)
Now on Amazon some guy sell it to 119€...Pretty cool too this controller.

@hooperre It's not a safe off switch, just a power kill switch, but I have a habit of shutting down from the menu first anyway. I just hate unplugging a Pi to turn it off. Also, the LED light is like the original NES, not blindingly bright like a custom LED on the Tinytendo.
