Games scaled down or "letter-boxed" #3

iPad Mini (7.0.2), iPhone 5s (8.0.2), iPhone 6 (8.0.2)

It seems there's some scaling issues on certain games. At first I thought that normal .gg ROM must be somehow smaller than the .sms ones but it seems that the letter boxing issue is occurring in both kinds on multiple devices, mostly those of bigger aspect ratios.

I'm presuming there hasn't been any updates for the larger, recently released iPhone 6 and 6 Plus?

Here's an example: original

The letter boxing of GG games is intended to avoid blurring compared to sms resolution. This may be improved. iPhone 6 resolution is broken at the moment.

With the inclusion of both iPhone 6 resolutions this issue has been solved.

The letter boxing of Game Gear games is intended. They can be scaled but you'll notice the blur so I prefer it to render at its native resolution so the will always look a little bit smaller that the SMS.

This has been enhanced, GG games aren't letter boxed any more.
