UberNES - Nintendo Screen Saver
Nintendo Screen Saver - Features


  • Screen saver can emulate and playback UberNES movies, or simply run games in their native "demo" mode

  • Multiple movies/games can be played at once and tiled over the screen to create a "wall of NES games" effect (Demo video)
  • The wall of movies can be scrolled around to create an "infinite movie wall" effect (Demo video)
  • Users can press the space bar to take over for a movie and start playing the game themselves using a keyboard/joypad/etc (Demo video)
  • Built-in support for quickly downloading and playing movies from the UberNES online movie gallery
    • Currently, the UberNES online movie gallery contains over 100 movies that provide almost three full days 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.
  • All aspects of the screen saver are highly configurable, including the following:
    • Sound on/off/only on when user is playing game
    • Length of time each movie is played before advancing to new one
    • Information scrolled along bottom of NES display
  • Extensive video options are included
    • Software upscalers such as HQX, ScaleX, and NTSC provide improved picture quality in higher resolutions
    • Custom display modes can be selected for the screen saver to run in
    • Video can be routed through GDI or DirectDraw video subsystems, providing greater flexibility
  • Completely disjoint from UberNES; you do not need to have UberNES in order to run the Nintendo Screen Saver
