      Alright, alright. This is cool. But how about an SNES?
      I'm a big SNES fan, and I'm trying to see if I can find a good SNES Theme and Case.
      Know any good ones?

        any progress update ?

        Nothing new since last update, just having a little break as I was so busy with this theme that haven't even played on my Mini Nes yet so I've been spending my weekend trying to finish setting it up so I can finally play it. I promise to get back to work this week though :D

        Well, this does already support SNES but I don't know of any specific SNES themes.

        See this post that shows the SNES support: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/8391/cardboard-mini-nes-nes-mini-and-famicom-mini-themes/111

                  I haven't decided if I'm going to add video snaps yet - I probably will but If I do it will be once I've finished adding the majority of systems to my themes as it will most likely have to be a separate version which will either replace the metadata with the videosnap or divide the boxart area into smaller boxart and video snap beneath (probably the best option I think).

                    @ruckage the video view is a new view entirely so you don't necessarily have to create a new theme just for video support

                      I didn't realise that, thanks. That will make things easier then so I will definitely look into adding it.

                        Regarding the video previews, is there a portable windows version of ES with this support so I can look into adding it?

                          @ruckage I haven't updated my portable build yet. I've been meaning to (hoping I can get automated tests builds with Travis or something)

                          Here is an example of adding video view:

                          @jdrassa has a much better idea of video view integration than me

                            Thanks - it would be great if you can get an updated portable version for windows ready at some point as it can be a pain designing/testing themes otherwise.

                              @ruckage I know there is a Windows build floating around the forum somewhere in the meantime

                                    Not sure if you had time to look into the ES toolkit stuff but I forgot to mention that you'll need this here too.

                                      Thanks, yeah I found the downloads after a bit of searching on the toolkit repo.

                                      I'm currently working on adding video view now though I think a lot of testing will have to be done on the pi itself as the windows versions of ES don't currently support maxsize for video.

                                        @ruckage I'm thinking of using your theme and modifying it to an SNES theme if that's fine with you.

                                          You're welcome to do as you wish for personal use but I would rather not have modified copies of my theme released as I'm still actively working on it and have put in countless hours of work creating all the logos and backgrounds etc.

                                            Fast forward to about 1 1/2 years ago and all my symptoms and more came back with a vengeance- nothing helped, couldn't sleep could only eat small amounts and felt sick all the time. I've had loads of tests but no conclusive cause for all the symptoms - the only major finds so far are confirmed acid reflux and hiatal hernia (knew I had those anyway) and that my esophagus doesn't work so when eating and drinking food isn't pushed down as it should be - it pretty much drops down by gravity alone.
                                            Luckily I seem to get periods where I feel normal again, like now, fingers crossed I won't feel ill again for quite a while.

                                            Wow I almost have exactly the same, it's horrible to have trouble swallowing food. Constantly feeling hungry but sick at the same time... I'm doing some test now.

                                            Hope you get better soon! And I really love the cardbord NES it's insane :o
