    I’m currently toying around with ares (the only fully cycle-accurate SNES emulator) and it has a lovely selection of CRT shaders (that are also available for other emulators). Try out crt-maximus-royale (or the half-res-mode variant). At least to me, the latter looks perfect, with just the right amount of blur, distortion, bloom and scanlines - and it comes with lovely details, like the bezel reflecting the image in real time and speaker grills filling the rest of the screen.

    Someone uploaded a gallery with various games to reddit that shows just how versatile this shader is:

        Happy to help. If you don’t like this shader, but end up preferring a different one, I’d love to hear about it.
