pNES ia a NES emulator for the Nintendo Switch. It is based on the excellent [https://github.com/0ldsk00l/nestopia nestopia] emulator. The main goals of this nestopia port are: *Have a basic but user friendly user interface on non windows devices. *Use a recent rendering interface for speed and effects support. *Cross-platform and code portability. *Easy updates of nestopia core (no modifications to the original sources). This was participated in the GBAtemp Switch Homebrew Bounty 2018 (Emulators). ==Features== *Support save states. *Support 2x, 3x, fit, fit 4/3 and fullscreen hardware scaling. *Support hardware filtering (shaders). *Support shaders effects. ==Installation== Copy "pnes" directory to "/switch/" directory on SD card. Copy roms to "/switch/pnes/roms/" directory on SD card. ==Controls== Plus - (In rom list) Configure main options and default roms options Minus - (In rom list) Configure per rom options Plus+Minus - (When in emulation) Bring the options menu ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/pnesnx2.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/pnesnx3.png ==Changelog== '''v7.1''' * [https://github.com/Cpasjuste/pemu/commit/4cc2602d259ce195c8ed41e65111ad4711d91a30 psnes: fix texture pitch/lock] * [https://github.com/Cpasjuste/pemu/commit/4cc2602d259ce195c8ed41e65111ad4711d91a30 psnes: bump snes9x to latest git rev] * [https://github.com/Cpasjuste/pemu/commit/1d7f65fb982716b682c0ab7dbb403d892060eb6b switch: fix libmpv crash] (fix crash on startup) * [https://github.com/Cpasjuste/pemu/commit/890b5b57eab993c5f39c5a876cb687005b612bcc vita: fix pgba installation] (but gba emulation is slow...)

The "gamelist.xml" file provide information about each game (name, genre, release date, if the game is a clone, etc...). If you do not provide your own "gamelist.xml" in each pfbneo rom folder, you will miss some information. If you do not have them, they can be created with a tool like [https://www.skraper.net/ Skraper] (or my own command line one [https://github.com/Cpasjuste/sscrap sscrap]). Else you can download them from the [https://github.com/Cpasjuste/pemu/tree/98e9bc6d7617972b7036f0e10365c1b350210f66/src/cores/pfbneo/data/common/romfs repository history] and put them in the corresponding rom folder (and rename them to "gamelist.xml"). * Know bugs ** The roms are not correctly detected on first app launch, please launch the app a second time to see your roms...
