Not really as that's supposed to reflect the release date of the console/computer and config is neither. I think I'm just going to remove the year box completely from config and arcade based systems as it seems to be causing confusion (no doubt then people will be asking why no 'year box' appears on those icons (◔_◔) )

Hey @ruckage !

It works!!!

Thank you very much!

I had to uninstall the theme and then reinstall (update wasn't reflecting the changes for some reason).

But... it works great!

Looking forward to the NES-Mini update!

Thanks, glad it works.
Regarding needing to uninstall the theme - did you restart ES as I think changes aren't seen unless the theme is reloaded.

@ruckage

I did not. I bet that was the deal :)

Oh, if it's not too much trouble, can you add official support for 1366 x 768? I can make a small change each update, but I can't get it perfect like the other ones are.

No worries if it's too much work for an edge case. :)

Sure, I'll add that as an option.

Hello, could u give me a link to download one older version of Famicon Mini Theme?

I am using emulationstation on Windows and i can't get it to work with the last version of theme. I have the older NES mini version and it works perfectly.

Thanks for the work, it's amazing!

Can't you just use a more up to date version of EmulationStation? @jdrassa posted a windows build of the latest version a few days ago: Click Here.

Just updated both themes.

Added video support.
Added NTSC resolution to Nes-mini.
Added 1366 x 768 resolution.
Added alternative US style Snes icons.
Removed year box from system carousel icons that don't require it.

Anyone else getting a git pull error when updating the theme via Retropie Setup Script?

[ruckage]

@LiveFastCyYoung
Just updated both through the ES theme manager on my pi without any problems. Maybe just try again, it could have just been a glitch.

@ruckage what's the progress on adding the missing systems?

Cut me a little slack, I've literally spent all my spare time the last 5 days fixing bugs and making improvements to both these themes.
I will get to the other systems next but I can't give a time frame.

@Omnija At least buy him a beer first ;)

There we go, now to let them find you.

Thanks for buying me a beer :) , that's very generous of you.

[mattmanforever]

@ruckage Least I can do! I'll never need another Retropie theme... unless you make a SNES mini version, in which case I'll be buying you more beers.

[lilbud]

@ruckage Sadly, I can't buy you a beer, mainly due to the fact that I can't legally (even in the U.K)

But I reckon I can do one better

[Hex]

@lilbud I would suggest changing the DOSBOX text to something more compressed horzontally

You could also take inspiration from the dosbox icon if you like

or this

@lilbud
Hi. I really am very grateful of the donations I've had but I honestly don't expect anything from anyone so no worries.

Regarding your mockup, It's nice you felt inspired to make that but as I've said several times previously I want to complete this alone. I have done all the other systems myself and want to do the rest myself as well as I have my own ideas for how I want each system to look.
