I will probably release it like c64 launcher...Start with say 200 games and expand.....

New update of the C64 Launcher with another 100 games added coming shortly.

Amiga launcher making good progress ...Its a bit slower process because of the animated screens but worth it.

Again the snes is a standalone launcher like the others so unfortunatly i code as i go so adding your own games is not possible....Besides the idea of these are load and play without the need to struggle with anything just click and play....There are loads out there you can spend ages setting up so i wanted to just do away with that hassle for people.

Of course any games you really want just gimmie a list

Wow, you made a c64 launcher? Where can i get it?
You're working on an amiga launcher as well??? Man you have your hands full.
Looking forward to see that snes launcher finished, and if you could include all the super bomberman in it would be great, i still play them with my wife and it's a lot of fun.

Very cool!
Tecmo Superbowl series would be sweet, some other sport games, and of course, Zombies Ate My Neighbours!

Although I'm more than capable of setting up emulators with the BIOS and Roms etc, always nice to have an "easy" app that you can just run and enjoy, nice work Synchro! Looking forward to the Amiga Launcher as well - SWOS, Speedball series, Cannon Fodder, oh yeah!

Really nice, Thank's, how did i miss this? This is really cool, very handy also, just click and play.
It spares me the trouble of having to configure the emulator.
Nice job Synchro

Have you ever consider making a ZX Spectrum Launcher?

Synchro, love your website, love your work. This SNES launcher looks awesome, will give it a try once I'm back on my main PC.

You have a really nice talent for design and visual presentation.

Looking pretty damn good Synchro!
Only ones I'd love to see would be the Tecmo Superbowl games, and Super Mario Kart, and even the SNES version of Sensible Soccer!

Here's a "Top 100" from SuperPlay magazine for any other ideas:

Looking good Synchro, It would be cool that you include all the super bomberman collection personally i play them all.
Here's a few games i would like to see in the launcher:

Sensible Soccer,Sensible Soccer International Edition, Super Bomberman(all), Desert Strike, Jungle Strike, Rock 'n' Roll Racing, Sim city, Cannon Fodder, Earth Worm Jim 1 and 2, Booger Man, Final Fight, Sunset Riders (this one is a must be), All the Mario games you can find, Damn, i could be here all day.

Just do your best and i'm sure that whatever the result, will be a great one. Keep up this awesome job

Well that's a good link but i think the top 100 list is a little questionable.
For example, how come Sunset riders isn't there? That's definetly in the top 100 of SNES, but then again it's just my opinion.

@ Paulo - yeah, there's many top 100 games lists, this was just one I found that had a good mix, and most of the common games found in a "top" list. There's always ones that they'll miss, just wanted some ideas for Synchro to look at. I'm sure he's happy for all suggestions.

@ Synchro - congrats again on these projects, I'll deinitely be adding them to my "emulator/old school" box PC!

Opinions are what they are, i guess they should do a top 1000 games for SNES, there were so many great games that they couldn't name them all.
