SNES mini theme

[nicholasykl]

The theme is nice!! I based on the original design of the mega drive system icon and made a Japanese version for my Picade. Please feel free to use them if you are interested.

Hi. Unfortunately the theme only supports layouts in 16x9 resolutions as there isn't enough display space in 4x3 mode to accommodate all of the information. The theme was primarily designed for 1920x1080 displays.

Thank you Ruckage for the quick reply. I also tested this on my Raspberry Pi 3B build on the same TV. It was able to display these items on the left, center, and the right of the screen as they were originally intended. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm guessing that the theme itself may not work with the PC build of Retrobat. I also had an issue with text overlapping the boxes on the Futura-V Dark theme. If you can port SNES Mini over or give Fabrice Caruso permission to make the theme work, that would be excellent.

Is there an updated version of this theme? I saw a 3DO icon for it in a 3 year old post. However, i downloaded this theme from github (for the PC version of emulationstation) and 3DO is missing, which makes me think it's an outdated version?

I don't think it supports 3DO, the list of supported systems is listed on the theme page - https://github.com/ruckage/es-theme-snes-mini.

@mitu Oh, that's too bad. Seems like the last update was 2 years ago. It misses systems like the 3DO and the Atari Jaguar.

@Planetdune

Could you make an icon for the Saturn please? Browsing through the topic i found more icons for every system (even the SNES CD, lol) but no Saturn.

@Imgema

You'll have to make one yourself.

Unless you wanna use my icon I made.

[Imgema]

@mikeydoom

Could i use yours then? Is it somewhere in this topic because i couldn't find any. I would appreciate it.

My skills with pixel art isn't great.

@ruckage Hey there, just trying your theme with a CRT setup and noticed when I added the Odyssey 2 system... that the images in your theme are named "odyssey2", which is perhaps why they aren't showing up for me...? I know "videopac" is the proper name for that system. The images for other themes I have installed work fine (except for Frotz/ZMachine but you don't have that one at all). I tried to make a quick change to the videopac name to those image files to test this out, but didn't have permission, so I figured I'd speak up. I assume the NES mini theme is your creation as well, but I haven't tried that one yet to see if the same naming exists there.

Hi, here's some art I've done for Kodi and Steam Link and I'd like to share with you:

So I've created some icons, for all intents and purposes for personal use. I've tried to adhere to the "spirit" of the original icons by ensuring that the font is uniform on the bottom and that the icons themselves are done in 4x4 pixel blocks. The system title logos at top, ehhh I'm not as skilled with those so my apologies. I'm not going to post them all here, and I will in no way say they're as good as Ruckage's. Ultimately I view mine as placeholders for me to use on my Android device until Ruckage comes out with their own versions.

I've seen some icons and some requests - I'll toss in the ones I've cleaned up for personal use. Some were posted a bit above, others I've found and conformed them to more "correct" settings.

This wasn't an attempt to step on any toes, seriously. It was more a personal project, I love the theme and wanted to see what I can do to fill the voids for some of these for myself. Mainly sharing the "pixelated" versions of @Planetdune 's icons, filling a couple of their requests, and fulfilling a request for a Saturn icon that @Imgema made.

Is there a way to replace the description text at the right to box art/images instead?

In the left side it will run the video (which it already does) and at the right side it will show images instead :)

@Harexam Could you make neogeo CD and open bor icons? Thanks

So I've created some icons...

Very nice, thanks a lot!

[Planetdune]

Ok I switched monitors to a 1920x1200 and the resolution is "screwed". The middle game name boxes run into both sides. I realize 1920x1080 is the highest the theme goes but is there nothing I can do to fix this?

@ruckage Hey I absolutely love your SNES mini theme and the only thing I miss is an Atari 800 / Atari 8bit support. I have tried to copy the other Atari icons but its just too fiddly. Is there any possibility you could add an icon and a bg_tron background for it? Here's hoping and praying :)

[macraem]

@jetbootjack Love this icon! Thanks. Ive been looking to update my SNES Mini Theme to support Atari 800 and this is great. Looking for a logo and a background now... :)

[macraem]

@Harexam These are great. Have yu by any chance created backgrounds or logos for these systems? Also have you/could you do any Atari 800 ones? Thanks

[Harexam]

The Atari one is not mine. I will not likely do an OpenBOR one - it's not really a "system" and the app I'm using does not support it.

No luck for the logos I'm afraid, and my backgrounds are for an Android frontend so not likely compatible with RetroPie.
