SNES Romset V2.0

For anyone that has gotten the previous versions, I want to point out something. I did not reupload the pack just for 30 roms less. If anything this should be the final update I do for it, for a lot time at least. I removed a LOT of duplicated and updated a lot of missing roms. The reason the English roms are less, is because there were a handful duplicate English roms, with US and European names being different. Also the Japanese roms are more because this time I did update Japanese Roms too.

Now to the rompack! I always am looking for romsets that are meant to have only a single rom for each game, rather than a lot of different versions of it, but never am able to find them. I finally managed to make this for myself and thought of sharing it, for people like me.

So this Romset is meant to be one that does not have any duplicate games in it and it is NOT for collectors, but for people that want to just get the roms and play, without having 5-6 different versions of the same game. My target is to keep a single game out of all the different releases, meaning that there should be only a single rom for each game.

I have gotten these roms from Emuparadise and thus decided to share them packed all together, rather than each one separate. If you want to play only some games and not download them all, then visit Emuparadise and get them from there.

This Romset is made from the large romset offered at Emuparadise and updated with the latest No-Intro (no hacked games) pack from Emuparadise.

I have tried my best to not have duplicate games, but even so, there might be a couple left that I did not detect. If you find any duplicate game, please do report it in comments.

Main ROMSet
There are 969 Japanese roms and 812 American/European roms, in the main pack. The priority of the roms I chose is USA, then Europe, then Japan and finally other regions. This time I made sure to update all the roms and remove any possible duplicate rom, even if the roms had different names.

Even if all roms are meant to be clean working roms, there are some rare exceptions. Games marked with (b) (there aree 3) are meant to be bad dumps, but the reason they are in there, it is because there are no good dumps of them, and I keep them in my list to see if working roms of them will appear.

Games marked with Proto (there are 33) are meant to be what you would call Alpha release. Some actually work normally, but others barely can be called games.

Final Fantasy 4-5-6 are the Japanese roms that are translated to English and that means I do not include Final Fantasy 2(4) and 3(5). Whoever prefers the American ones, rather than the ones that are fan translated, you can delete these and grab the US ones on Emuparadise.

I left Super 3D Noah's Arc in the Main Romset, even if it is Unlicensed. I just felt it should stay in the main romset :D

There are two Roms that are neither English not Asian. Super Dany is in France and Super Full Metal is Italian-Swedish. This is not a mistake, I just could not find them in English.

Extra
I have also included some separate extra packs of roms, which are either BIOSes, SNES pirate or hack games and some other oddities.

A&S NES Hacks are NES games, hacked to work on SNES.

Pirate, Unlicensed Carts and Unknown can be games that for one or another reason were not Licensed, but are good games, to bootlegs or just some ROMS I could not check for integrity. Just shuffle through them, delete what you do not care for and keep whatever you like.

If you wonder what are Broadcast Satellaview and Public Domain roms, you can look it up in wikipedia, since you will understand it much better, than me trying to explain.

Games List
I have compiled a list of the Main Romset games in different formats, from normal text, to rtf and two different type of excel formats. The txt and rtf obviously can be read by the default Windows document readers, notepad and Wordpad. The txt is simple where the rtf looks like a nice list in boxes, looking like an excel.

Emulator
I personally use Snes9x, but I have found myself using BSnes sometimes, because a rom will not work with Snes9x. BSnes is focused on accuracy, so it works quite nice with some games that do not like Snes9x. I think there is a new emulator from the creator of BSnes, but I never tried that, so I can't really suggest it.

FrontEnd
Finally I want to suggest LaunchBox. Launchbox is a frontend for multiple emulators and if anything it is the best I have found out there. It is easy to import games in it's interface, it suggests the best emulator to get when for each console, when you try to add an emulator and it has the best interface I have found. Weirdly, I like the free UI it offers (LaunchBox) and not the paid one that people that buy it can get (BigBox). The LaunchBox UI shows every game in a list with a picture of the cover or a from in game and that is really nice for me. The paid UI it offers just shows a list and only when you choose the name you can see any pictures of it. It can automatically look into picture databases and download pictures for a lot of the games. You can check the to see what I mean.

Super Play Magazine (SNES) 1992-96 Complete OCRd PDFs ///RetroPDFs

Super Play Magazine Issues 01-47 (Nov 1992 - Sep 1996)

Super Play was a monthly UK Nintendo SNES title, published by Future
Publishing. As expected for a console title, it concentrated on gaming
for much of the console’s lifetime, before being gracefully
retired in favour of Future’s N64 titles.

These PDFs are the compiled collections of page scans available on
public torrent trackers . They've been OCR'd to allow text searching and
copying - this should prove very useful for the retro archivist who'd
like to have their own local searchable archive. They look great on most
PDF readers, including tablet and mobile viewers.

The OCR software has done it's best, but has struggled with some of the
more unusual fonts and layouts used and by the relatively low DPI of the
source images.

More OCR'd scans will be periodically available - please check
(or Google RetroPDFs) for more information.
Thanks to everyone who donates or contributes to RetroPDFs.

90's style "greets" to anyone formally or currently involved in the
Amiga scene, especially Pazza, Mic Flair, Violator, Denzil, Tango, Fat
Will, mUb and Maximan, and anyone else who read or wrote for LSD
Grapevine. Nostalgia ain't what it used to be ;)
