Uma excelente notícia para a comunidade, graças ao desenvolvedor ludufre (Luan Freitas) no GitHub, o sd2snes agora conta com uma versão em português repleta de novidades e melhorias em relação ao firmware original de mrehkopf.
Esta bifurcação (fork) traz recursos há muito aguardados pelos jogadores. O principal destaque visual é a inclusão das box arts na lista de seleção, tornando a interface muito mais intuitiva. Ao navegar pelos títulos, o usuário também tem acesso a uma ficha técnica com data de lançamento, desenvolvedora e uma breve sinopse do jogo.
No quesito funcionalidades, a grande adição é o menu de cheats in-game, que permite ativar trapaças durante a gameplay — algo que não está liberado no firmware original —, além de diversas otimizações de sistema.

| Preview | Feature |
|---|---|
| Menu in Portuguese, English, Spanish, German & French The whole firmware menu, messages and screens translated to Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish, German and French. The original English stays available — just pick one. |
| Box-art in the game list As you browse, the game’s official cover shows up on screen. Just drop a .cov file with the same name as the ROM in the same folder. To build the whole collection at once, the Web Manager downloads box art in bulk (and the cheats too). |
| See the game’s info card before playing Before a ROM boots, a full-screen card shows the cover, a screenshot (or an animated clip with sound) and the game’s metadata — developer, year, players, genre and special chip — plus a short description. In the menu you can choose whether the clip plays (with its soundtrack) or just a static snapshot shows. The Web Manager downloads each game’s info card automatically. |
| Menu music and sounds Plays an .spc track in the background while you browse — plus 4 navigation sound effects (cursor, confirm, back, error). Build it all in the Sound Creator: pick the .spc, preview it in the browser, swap the effects and download them ready for the card. |
| Cheat menu over the game Pause the running game with L + R + Y + ← and toggle cheats on the fly, without going back to the menu. On by default; turn it off in Configuration › In-game Settings › In-game hook › Cheat menu. Tip: the Web Manager also downloads each game’s cheats automatically. |
| Switch the menu theme on the console From firmware 2.9 on, pick the menu theme right on the SNES — logo, colours, background and selection bar. Drop .thm files in any folder on the card and choose one in the browser. Grab ready-made themes in the gallery or build your own in the web editor. |
| Cheat manager in the menu The sd2snes already applies cheats per game — what this fork adds is the in-menu manager: from the context menu (Y) you turn each code on or off on the console, without editing the YAML on a PC. The files live in /sd2snes/cheats; grab ready-made cheats at gamehacking.org, exporting as FXPak Pro 1.7 (.yml), or download them automatically with the Web Manager. |
| BS-X carts with a Memory Pack slot Added support for the Satellaview 8M Memory Pack slot for the Japanese games that use it — drop the pack dump at /sd2snes/saves/<rom>.mpk and the game reads the Memory Pack contents (saved sound novels, downloaded races…). On top of that, Derby Stallion 96 and Sound Novel Tsukuru now work. |
| IPS/BPS patch at boot The heart of rom-hacking: apply fan translations, hacks and fixes without altering the ROM. Drop the .ips/.bps patch in the ROM’s folder using the game name as a prefix; at launch the firmware lists the patches and applies it in memory, leaving the original ROM untouched. |
| A description for every menu option From firmware 2.11 on, every settings option shows a line explaining what it does, right on screen — in Portuguese, English, Spanish, German and French. It’s easy to understand each setting without a manual. |
| Warns when a chip’s BIOS is missing Some games use special chips (DSP in Super Mario Kart, Super FX in Star Fox, SA-1, S-DD1, OBC1, CX4, Super Game Boy, BS-X…) that need support files on the card. From firmware 2.11 on, if one is missing, instead of freezing or booting a broken game, the menu shows which file is missing and returns to the menu without resetting the console. |
| Delete a file and its savegame From the browser’s context menu (Y), delete the selected file or just the ROM’s save (.srm) — right on the console, without pulling the card out or turning on a PC. |
| Reset brings you back where you were A short reset can drop you back in the menu already inside the folder of your last game — or right on the ROM you were playing. Pick it in In-game Settings → Reset to menu: Off, On, Folder or ROM. |
