Version 1
The Nintendo Screen Saver is a screen saver for Windows that displays Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) games.
Rather than displaying NES games running in their own native "demo mode", the Nintendo Screen Saver plays movies recorded with our UberNES emulator to provide dynamic gameplay content.
- Features
- Completely stand-alone; you do not need to have UberNES in order to run the Nintendo Screen Saver
- Don't have any UberNES movies to play? No problem - the screen saver has built-in support for downloading and playing movies from the UberNES online movie gallery!
- Currently, the UberNES online movie gallery contains over 50 movies that provide over one full day of unique NES gameplay footage.
- Movie checkpoints are utilized to begin playing movies from various key points in movies, rather than just playing each movie from the beginning every time.
- Screen saver is highly configurable - the following settings can be adjusted:
- Full-screen resolutions
- Length of time each movie is played before advancing to new one
- Sound on/off
- Information scrolled along bottom of NES display
- Requirements
- DirectX 8.0 or higher
- .NES files to play movies back with
