RE: Ninty Launcher - VinnyVideo - 02-12-2019
Wow, this is really cool - I love the way it looks.
RE: Ninty Launcher - Q-Nova - 02-13-2019
Yeah, this is indeed pretty cool! I like how you can customize the themes!
RE: Ninty Launcher - Mors - 02-13-2019
Honestly, this actually looks really cool! Seeing those themes make me wonder why Nintendo never added more themes to Switch.
EDIT: Are those Mega Man Maker and Flashback there?
RE: Ninty Launcher - YoshisIsland3 - 02-13-2019
This is really cool! I tried to do something like this but it didn't go far nor was it as advanced, good job.
RE: Ninty Launcher - HylianDev - 02-14-2019
This is beautiful! Awesome job!
RE: Ninty Launcher - Merit Celaire - 02-16-2019
Wow, now this is very interesting; in terms of fangame projects (especially the Mario related ones that we're doing and showcasing here), would this also run stuff that was created using the Clickteam software (which I am still doing to this day)?
RE: Ninty Launcher - Evil Yoshi Toes - 02-16-2019

You are able to run executables (.exe), links (.url/.lnk) and shockwave flash (.swf)

Yes, by clicking on "Modify game" (Second icon, yellow square), first the launcher will ask for the most updated directory where the .exe (it will automatically open the selection window in the original directory), after you choose it will ask for a new thumbnail, I recommend you use 256x256 images.
It is also compatible with animated thumbnails, there's an example included in the "Samples" folder
You can also send custom thumbnails on Ninty's discord. (Title + Executable Name)
