[[Sonic Retro]] aims to use screenshots of the best possible quality when depicting games and videos. For most video games this is typically done by running the game in an [[emulator]] and using the emulator's own screenshot feature. If the emulator has no such capability, you can manually capture the screen by pressing [[wikipedia:Print screen|Print Screen]] and pasting it into an image editing program. <b><i><u>THIS SHOULD ONLY BE DONE AS A LAST RESORT!</u></i></b> The screenshot should be saved as a PNG and optimized using [[pngpress]]. Remember to disable any filters when taking a screenshot (except for contrast/brightness improvement) and save the image at the correct [[resolution]].

==Sega Mega Drive==
 
Resolution should be 320x224, or less commonly 256x224.
 
* [[Kega Fusion]]: Set "Options > Set Config > Extras > Output Stage" to <b>Raw</b>. Disable all Video filters except Brighten. Borders need to be cropped manually in an image editor for the correct resolution.
 
* [[Gens/GS]]:
 
** Disable Fast Blur (hotkey F9).
 
** Set contrast to 20 and brightness to 0. (Graphics > Color Adjust)
 
** Enable RGB Color Scaling. (Graphics > Color Adjust > Scale Colors) [requires r7_pre5 or later]
 
** Other than the above options, screenshots are taken in their original resolution without filtering.
 
 
 
==Sega Master System and Game Gear==
 
Resolution should be 160x144 for Game Gear. Master System is 256x192 by default, but the leftmost 8 pixels are nearly always blank, so they can be cropped for a 248x192 resolution.
 
* [[Emukon]]
 
 
 
==Sega Saturn==
 
* [[SSF]]: Turn off Enforce Aspect Ratio (Option > Screen).
 
 
 
==Nintendo Game Boy Advance==
 
* [[VisualBoy Advance]]: Go to "Options > Emulator" and select PNG format at the bottom of the list. Screenshots can then be taken by clicking "File > Screen capture..." and simply giving the resultant PNG image a name and a directory for it to be saved to. The resultant image size should be 240x160 and the only processing needed a run though pngpress.
 
 
 
==Nintendo DS==
 
Resolution should be 256x192 per screen (256x384 total).
 
* [[NO$GBA]]
 
 
 
==Neo Geo Pocket Color==
 
Resolution should be 160x152.
 
* [[NeoPop]]: Lacks a built-in screenshot ability, so Print Screen is needed.
