I'm all new to the cia thing ... just followed Plailect's guide today. So in browsing around for solutions to getting some VC goodness on my newly modded 3DS, I learned about 'color corrected' and 'ghosting removed' injected vc cia's for GBA. Just based on screenshots and descriptions, these improvements make such versions more desirable and enjoyable than the (fre)eshop versions.

Are there equivalent 'improved' versions available for SNES, NES, etc, besides GBA? Or are the (fre)eshop versions as good as anyone's injected packages?

I think Ghosting and color correcting is just a GBA thing.
Playing NES/SNES games and they look just fine compared to some of the GBA games i tried.

You can restore the original colors on NES VC using hacking (or by using @Asdolo's Ultimate NES VC Injector for 3DS), but I think SNES and GBC have the original colors already.
BTW: This is my 100th post woohoo

Just checkin'. My old 3DS is a black launch model, complete with the Ambassador GBA downloads. I was kinda disappointed to find out the official eshop releases for GBA had not fixed the darkness/filter issue. But I always thought the NES VC games looked a little less vibrant than they should too, but that's probably more of a CRT vs. lcd thing.

Other than GBA, NES games are also possible to be improved by making them pixel perfect for the screen and remove the darkening filter from the screen similar to GBA games but not exactly the same.

    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
