R-Pi SNES retro console project

DaOld Man:
Bump.
Im about to get started on my NES Pi project.
Some more pics of your work would be nice.

Slippyblade:
Pics, yes.  Sorry.  I've been trying to finish up a bartop for my son and have been beating my head against a wall.  Will get some pics on this as soon as I can.

DaOld Man:
No rush man, I was just afraid you had forgotten about it.

Slippyblade:
Nope, it's sitting on my bench like an open faced sandwich actually.  I just need to get the controller ports wired up to the Pi properly and it'll be done.

DaOld Man:
I have ordered a mausberry power switch.
I am thinking of using the original NES power connector and a 5VDC 3 amp wall wart.
However, I am also considering a molded two conductor connector mounted in the case, and a 120 VAC cord (like on most dvd players, etc.), putting the 5 VDC power supply inside the NES case.
About that mausberry thingy. I understand how it shuts down the RPi when the switch is flipped, but whats going to happen if power fails or someone unplugs the power while the game is on?
Is there a chance of corrupting the SD card on the RPi?
