The article explains that there are thousands of bezels available for download, and users can choose from various consoles, including Mega Drive, NES, SNES, and more.

The author has already tested the Bezel project with a few games, including Super Nintendo's "Three Ninjas Kickback" and Sega Genesis's "Dr. Chaos". The results were impressive, as the bezels appeared seamlessly on the screen, without any issues.
