On the 3DS's SD card (not the Gateway MicroSD), create a folder named 'snes' and put your SNES ROMs in there. In the same folder, you can also place savegames. They must have the same name as their corresponding ROM, and have a.srm extension. With that done, start blargSnes, and you see a ROM selection menu.
blargSnes is a Super Nintendo emulator for 3DS.

- BlargSnes Won't load roms (self.3dshacks) submitted 3 years ago by GrinningPenguin For whatever reason whenever I try to select a rom in BlargSnes, it just freezes and I am forced to restart my 3ds.

Usage
Installation
If you need help to install this homebrew on your console, read how to launch 3DS homebrew.
On the 3DS's SD card (not the Gateway MicroSD), create a folder named 'snes' and put your SNES ROMs in there.
In the same folder, you can also place savegames. They must have the same name as their corresponding ROM, and have a .srm extension.
With that done, start blargSnes, and you see a ROM selection menu. Select your ROM and press A (or B). See what happens.
Compatibility list
Controls
- Pause: Touch screen
- Resume pause: Touch screen or A
While in pause:
- Change game: Select
- Settings: Start
- Screenshot: L+R (saved to your SD card in .bmp format).
- Exit: Select, then press the [X] on the touch screen.
Settings
- Hardware renderer: this enables the hardware-accelerated renderer. It is faster than the software renderer but also less accurate in some cases.
- Scaling: provides some scaling modes for the video output.
Customize
Custom borders
You can change the border picture on the top screen by placing a 400x240px 24bit bitmaps picture named blargSnesBorder.bmp on the root of your 3DS SD card.
