Igor Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) Got my SNES mini classic running Lynx games, here's a short video of the action. Pretty cool! I'll write a blog post in the next couple of days on how to do it. Edited October 10, 2017 by necrocia 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFG 9000 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 This is awesome. From the video, it looks like the emulation quality is a bit better than the Handy PC emulator. How would you rate the emulation quality overall for Lynx games on the SNES classic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 That's the coolest and craziest thing I have seen in a long time! Looking forward to the "How To" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you rate the emulation quality overall for Lynx games on the SNES classic? It's actually is running Handy! There are 3 graphics options available like the rest of the SNES games have. These are CRT Filter, 4:3 and Pixel Perfect. That video is using CRT Filter mode so everything is stretched and smoothed. Other modes look pixelated but more authentic maybe. I'll take some photos and will put them up comparing each mode. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trew Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Thanks for this! Although, sadly, it seems to require a Windows machine, which I don't have. Might have to try borrow one, unless I can sniff out some Mac tools. (I could use Wine/Parallels etc, but too lazy). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trew Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Bootcamp Aye, sadly also well above my "effort" threshold. Never had an experience with Bootcamp that wasn't a PITA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Mac is the primary computer I use, for this it was simpler to install everything on a Windows laptop I had laying around as macOS compatible tools for this do not see to exist. Bootcamp could work, but then you need to install Windows on your actual Mac. Something like VirtualBox may work, you'd only need to have Windows in a VM then, don't know how it would go with detecting the SNES mini though.
