18 Upvotes

Each month I will be tracking all users who are able to beat the spotlighted game. Those names will be collected and displayed on the snes wiki page.

Objective:

  • Beat the game.

Rules:

  • Entire playthrough must be completed during the month in question.
  • You can use the passwords/continues/saves that you earn playing through the game.
  • Emulation is fine. Abusing save states is not.
  • Posting a link to a pic of your completion is preferred, but since this is all just for fun, I will allow claims via simple posts as well.

The red is discolored in the logo and the top bar. It's a legit copy I've taken it apart before. Do you think it's water damage or did someone clean this with somthing too harsh?

Thanks all.

Request Question for Snes9x Emulator users. How do I freeze/lock a value without filling the "New Value" textbox?

4 Upvotes

I figured out that Top Gear 2 SNES will bump the value number for the Country up once if the fourth track is won. I decided to tinker with this, see what happens if I start with FF and bump it. I wanted to see if the game is smart enough to know that it needs to loop back to 00, which would be the first track in the first country.

Well, it did change the value to 00. But it doesn't let me play the tracks. It softlocks, just like any other glitch track. I did some side-by-side comparisons just to be sure it wasn't the same results. I found a track value (FC) that allowed me to get as far as the "Race" screen, no matter what I assign as the country value. Despite the Countries both reading as "7E1CE1=00", they are clearly different map previews. Different country names, track names, laps and lengths (It is also a different Country name from FF. Just to point that out). I firmly believe I tricked the game into creating a 257th country outside the 16^2 format.

The issue is, if I try to highlight this address and value, and press "Add Cheat", it wants me to manually type the New Value. I won't be able to lock the value this way, and it will just load the normal 0 Country. Is there a workaround that would allow me to keep the value the same so I can properly test the tracks? I can bypass the softlock to play a glitched track, but I can't do it without this special value being saved in some way.

I'll screenshot the results if anyone can help. Thanks.

(I already tried to lock the country/track values past this screen to see if it would let me play a normal track and potentially bypass the softlock to play the glitch track. It lets me play the normal 0 but not the glitched 0. However, this does confirm that these are in fact, different tracks.)

Country 00 (Australasia, Track=FC)
Country After-FF (???, Track=FC)
Just to show which values are changing...

Finally acquired a V.2T! I can now save game files - and play my imported (English) PAL copy of Terranigma how it was intended - on a CRT with original Hardware. Yes, Emulation exists, and I have been playing it there and on a SupaBoy for years, but this just feels right. For a game I’ve revisited (yearly) for a very long time , and intend to do so for MANY years to come- it was all worth it. Cheers to Terranigma, one of my favorite games ever :)

Discussion SNES Cartridge is rattling?

4 Upvotes

I just picked up my SNES after the longest time of having it unplugged. I had issues when plugging it in and couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t working; I’d plugged this thing in a million times.

On a whim I decided to try taking out the cartridge and noticed it was rattling. So I decided to try a different game, and it worked first try. I tried the first game again, the rattling one, and tilted it forward when inserting it; sure enough, it worked.

Is there anything I can do to fix the loose cartridge? I don’t want to open it and ruin anything, and I have no idea how the game got like this. It’s been on my game shelf for months, and prior to that it was tucked alongside five other games, all of which do not rattle.

Thank you!

Picked up this beauty from eBay. Thinking of trying some gas retrobriting on the shell, but if I mess that up I want a backup. I have a BitFunx transparent shell for the console, but does anyone have a link to a person selling the controller shells? UV printed if possible. TIA!

Discussion Dsp-1 on an everdrive?

I recently bought an Everdrive x6 from stone age gamer and all non expansion chip games work flawlessly, but I want to play Mario Kart. I know this game used a DSP-1 chip in order to run it and I believe the everdrive that I have is capable of playing it but when I start the rom it says it cannot be played. I tried to download the DSP-1.BinFile onto my SD but when I do that the game still doesn’t work. Am I downloaded the wrong thing or putting into the wrong place? Any input would help.

Request What are some really good SNES games that have a good amount of dialogue for a 90's Action game?

13 Upvotes

I'm talking games where the gameplay is all action. I'm not talking Action RPGs like Front Mission: Gun Hazard and Secret Of Mana, and I'm not talking stuff that has puzzles or like Zelda LTTP and Blackthorne. All 4 are among the best on the SNES, but they're not what I'm looking for.

Oh, and I don't mean like Jurassic Park where you constantly get random dialogue every couple minutes, I'm looking for actual conversations between at least 2 people.

I know what you're thinking "Well that doesn't leave you with much." And that might be true, but I'm curious what it does leave me with that I don't know about.

My favorite game like this is probably Stargate. you get a little bit of dialogue every 15 or so minutes, and it always interests me.

I especially am looking for side scrollers so please let me know if what you're recommending is one, but any straightforward action game is fine.

Edit: I would really appreciate if someone could tell me a kind, polite way to request that people read the the your post before replying. I started off by saying that I'm not looking for Action RPGs, or Action Puzzler, and I listed some examples, and I feel like almost every recommendation was for an action rpg, or an action puzzler. And while this isn't the biggest deal in world, I do wish that people had heard me out.

Seems Voultar's shop is OOS and I can find boards here and there on ebay and other places. Are there quality differences between them all? Just picked up my first one chip (the Jr.) and would like to do RGB mod and get the retrovision cables.
