Video: Watch it running on real hardware

I wanted my SNES Classic to look and behave like the Famicom Mini Weekly Shōnen Jump 50th Anniversary Edition, so I rebuilt that console's UI on the SNES one. It goes further than a recolour: the theme also includes the idle animations, the demo behaviour and the music rotation.

What you get

• Home screen: the manga speed-lines background, Famicom-red header and footer (with the Jump flame logo), white cards and red hint icons, all from the Jump edition's own assets.
• Header: the "Weekly Shōnen Jump 50th Anniversary Edition" banner, translated to English.
• Music: the five Jump home tracks (Famicom Jump II, Dragon Ball, Kinnikuman, Captain Tsubasa, Saint Seiya), played in order and rotating like on the original, with no boot jingle.
• Idle skit: if you leave the console alone, the starry-sky intro opens in a circle, the 16 character portraits pop in one by one in sync with their sounds, and it ends on the 50th logo surrounded by all of them. Then the demo starts, same as on the Jump edition.
• Demo: Goku and Ryotsu replace Mario and Luigi. Goku turns around and raises his Power Pole to pick a game (no jumping). Ryotsu throws shurikens at the display settings.
• Display settings: Dragon Ball previews instead of Super Mario World.
• Suspend points: the red and cream panel, the background stays visible, the other cards no longer darken, and the X/Y buttons are drawn in the Jump edition's black style.

Install

Get it from the Options Menu theme downloads ("Shonen Jump 50th UI"), then select it in the theme selector.

It's an overlay theme (it ships its own scripts and resources), so you need an up-to-date Options Menu / Theme Selector. If you update the theme while it's applied, re-apply it afterwards so the new files are picked up.

Known differences from the real thing

• In the Jump demo, Goku stays still while the cursor moves. On the SNES, the demo code walks him to the game, so here he walks.
• The SNES has more buttons and screens than the Famicom Mini (X/Y, Rewind, the language menu). Those use matching Jump-style art rather than originals.

Assets are from the Famicom Mini Shōnen Jump edition and belong to Nintendo / Shueisha. No ROMs are included.

Options Menu v2.0.0-alpha3

Options Menu 2.0 is a full redesign of the menu, with a new look, nine languages and a set of new options. This is an alpha: it has been tested on real hardware, but expect rough edges. Please report issues.

Which file do I need?

File	Use it if…
options_deluxe_v2_0_0-alpha3.hmod	You're not sure. This is the normal build.
options_deluxe_v2_0_0-alpha3_compat.hmod	The Options Menu doesn't open because another hmod replaced the console's libstdc++ (e.g. RetroArch 1.8.4 Xtreme SC). This build ships its own copy.

Install only one of them.

What's new

New look

• Redesigned menu: a list on the left and a preview panel on the right showing an icon for the selected option.
• New icon set for every option.
• Smooth TrueType text, with the button hints for each screen shown in the footer.
• Toggle switches for on/off options, and a › on rows that open a submenu.
• The Module Uninstaller uses the same new look.
• Colors can be customized in /etc/options_menu/theme.cfg.

Languages

The menu is now available in English, Français, Deutsch, Español, Italiano, Nederlands, Português (Europeu), Русский and 日本語. Pick one under Language on the main menu; the menu restarts in that language.

Navigation

• B goes back to the previous menu, or closes the Options Menu on the main screen. The old Exit row is gone.
• Hold B for about a second to delete an entry on lists that support it (e.g. saved wifi backups). You're always asked to confirm.
• Hold UP/DOWN to scroll quickly.

New options

• Saved Games: back up your saved games to your USB/SD card and restore them later.
• Network: back up and restore your wifi configuration, to NAND or USB, with one backup per network.

Fixes and improvements

• The default button combo is detected automatically: L + R, or B + Down on consoles without shoulder buttons (NES Classic, Famicom Classic and variants). You can still set your own combo.
• Fixed the console hanging when powering off from the menu.
• RetroArch options work with both RetroArch Neo and RetroArch Xtreme (Ozone).
• More reliable controller detection on startup.

Changes in alpha3

• Added S8104CleanExtraCovers, a script to remove unnecessary cover images.
• Improved the installation and cleanup process to ensure old files are properly removed.
• The Module Uninstaller has been redesigned as a checklist and now returns to Advanced Options after completing.
• Silent commands no longer show an unnecessary output screen, and toggle states are refreshed automatically after commands run.
• Controller settings and diagnostics have been moved into dedicated Advanced Options submenus.
• The RetroArch menu is now hidden when RetroArch isn't installed.
• Cleaned up the boot cleanup process and removed stale RetroArch defaults.
• Standardized snake_case / camelCase naming across the Options Menu shell scripts.

Upgrading from 1.3.x

The alpha3 installer automatically handles previous Options Menu installations, so you no longer need to manually uninstall the old version first.

If you had a custom button combo, check it under Advanced Options → Controller Settings after upgrading.

Menu options added by other hmods keep working.

For developers

• New command file fields: SUBMENU, ENABLE_IF, STATE_STR (toggle rows), DELETE_STR / DELETE_CONFIRM_KEY (hold-B delete), and CHILD (indented rows).
• Plugins can ship their own translations in /etc/options_menu/<plugin>/lang/.
• Docker-based build: ./build.sh produces a release-ready .hmod without a local ARM toolchain.

See the README for the full field list and theme.cfg keys.

Theme Selector v3.0.0-alpha3

This release adds several improvements to theme management, folder-specific themes, and audio configuration.

What's new

Folder Themes

• Added a new Folder Themes screen.
• Themes can now be assigned to individual folders without renaming the folders.

Music Per Folder

• Added support for assigning music per folder.
• Theme and audio settings have been regrouped to make them easier to manage.

Theme fixes

• Fixed an issue where an overlay theme could remain mounted after leaving its folder.

Installation and compatibility

• Improved the uninstall process for legacy installations, including cleanup of Theme Randomizer components.
• Fixed install/uninstall paths to use the actual /bin location of the helper binaries.
• Updated the bundled Options Menu dependency to the latest alpha3 changes.
• Standardized snake_case / camelCase naming in the Theme Selector shell scripts.

Thanks

• MadFranko008 for the original idea behind the Saved Games options.
• Aranthys for testing.
• Icons are based on Bootstrap Icons (MIT).
• UI font: Noto Sans JP (OFL).
