SNES Classic Revealed
Hesch:
I tried to IPS patch some fan translations for some Japanese roms, but none of them will load on the Classic. Well, the newly released FF5 translation loads fine...DQ 1&2, 3 and 5, Star Ocean, and Ys 3 and 4 won't load at all
Wonder what's going on
SegaNomadman:
I finally got a hold of one! GameStop's restocks were today and I was able to snag one before anyone else got there. After missing out on the NES Classic I'm beyond excited to have this thing!

Did you install the Retroarch emulation cores? The stock emulator won't play lots of games for various reasons. People are looking into workarounds, but currently one of the best workarounds is to use Retroarch for everything that doesn't run on stock.

I assume the classic is looking for unheadered ROMs? If so, it's worth checking to make sure that your patched ROMs do not contain a header.
Hesch:
I checked that last night. I know the patched FF5 rom is unheadered, and it works. I went through and looked, and some of the roms, post patch, were headered. But ALL were unheadered before patching. I realized today well after the fact that I never double checked to see which were headered after patching. Man it feels weird typing headered so many times.
Headered.
