L-CLASSICS is the NES/Famicom and SNES emulators used for the Nintendo Classics on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.
Overview
[edit | edit source]The NES L-CLASSICS variant seems to be an updated kachikachi, using similar naming conventions for ROMs, a nearly identical Lua setup for the GUI, and even keeping its FDS BIOS in a folder named kachikachi
Features
[edit | edit source]The L-CLASSICS emulator also had some features built in like: Save and loading game state and rewinding the game and online multiplayer. It also bundles Special types versions of game like an whole completed game or having unlocked a specific hard difficulty if you complete the whole game or just a good start to begin a game.
Starting with the SNES app, the Nintendo Classics branding was featured on version 5.0.0, alongside support for Super NES Mouse emulation through the Joy-Con 2 (for Nintendo Switch 2 users), generic USB mouses (for both Nintendo Switch 2 and standard Nintendo Switch users on TV mode) or Type-C USB mouses (for Nintendo Switch Lite users). In-app button remapping was also added for every game available in the app.
The NES app received the Nintendo Classics branding starting from version 8.0.0. As with other updates in other Classics apps, individual input remapping for each game was added in this version.
Starting with version 9.0.0 and 6.0.0 on L-CLASSICS, Nintendo Switch 2 games can support challenges tied with the game itself to unlock in-game goods, starting with Donkey Kong Bananza.
