Open slacknk opened 4 years ago

NES ~= Famicom. SNES != Famicom. For all snes-info: bsnes, snes9x &etc. https://github.com/libretro/libretro-super/blob/master/dist/info/

display_name = "Nintendo - SNES / Famicom (_CORENAME_)"

example, snes9x2005_libretro.info:

I'm about display_name = "Nintendo - SNES / Super Famicom (_CORENAME_)"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System

In Japan, the system is called the Super Famicom (SFC).

But this name longest, maybe

- display_name = "Nintendo - SNES / Super Famicom (_CORENAME_)"
+ display_name = "Nintendo - SNES / SFC (_CORENAME_)"

I'm not opposed to this, but I am concerned that it will push the corename so far out that many will be lost to scrolling.
