News this week in the Pi World

The weekend starts. We're too hot around here. People go to the beach, go for a walk in pulling shirt and flip-flops. We have crowded bars... And here I am reading the latest issue of *MagPi* and playing the *SNES Classic Mini emulator* on my *Raspberry Pi*. Do you want to know how?.... We begin the **Pi World**!


VĂ­deo of the week: Raspberry Pi - SuperTuxKart
  • **OpenMSX and the Raspberry Pi (Youtube):** The binary of *OpenMSX* for Pi has been quite successful in this blog. Visitors and retweets have grown and I want to thank you. It gives me food for thought and I draw conclusions: You love emulators and surely you are in your thirties and long ones, he he. If so, I suggest you visit the following links of an expert in *MSX* computers who dares to add to the emulator a bridge with *GPIO*. Thanks again, *Patrick*.

  • **canoe-shvc to emulate the SNES Mini Classic on your Raspberry Pi:** Thanks to a blog reader named *Fran Sena*, I was able to download from a lost repository the emulator for this game console of the last century. You will have to uncomment in */boot/config.txt* the *framebuffer_width and framebuffer_height* resolution. Let's remember that this is *canoe-shvc*. You need *SDL2*. I detail some of the steps:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install -y libsdl2-dev
sudo ln -s /opt/vc/lib/libbrcmGLESv2.so /usr/lib/libMali.so
sudo ln -s /opt/vc/lib/libbrcmGLESv2.so /usr/lib/libGLESv1_CM.so
fbset -vyres 1440
./canoe-shvc rom_name.sfrom

It seems to be very faithful to the original *SNES*, but the sound is not as good as it should be. In this emulator, *ROMs* have the *.sfrom* extension. Download it on [misapuntesde.com > canoe-shvc](https://misapuntesde.com/res/canoe-shvc) | [clusterrr.com > SNES-mini-roms.zip](http://clusterrr.com/temp/SNES-mini-roms.zip)
