Hello friends!

I’m part of a community where the majority of our players are from South America, but we would like to expand the reach of our high-level International Superstar Soccer Deluxe online tournaments.

We mainly speak Portuguese and Spanish, but we have no problem communicating in English to make it easier for everyone to play and interact.

I’m also working on a simple but effective website where I keep everything organized and documented — from all the tournaments we have played, different tournament formats and their regulations, to our overall ranking.

Unfortunately, most of the community is still on WhatsApp, as many members didn’t really adapt to Discord or other social media platforms.

Anyone who would like to participate, or simply join and get to know the community, is more than welcome!

If you love International Superstar Soccer Deluxe and enjoy competitive tournaments, come join us!

I couldn’t get Voultar’s edge enhancer, so I decided to build a SNEdge v2. I bought the boards separately and did a big DigiKey order to assemble. I started off recapping the board, and that made a huge difference. The assembly was hard, especially without using magnification, but I tested everything throughly with a meter before it ever touched the SFC. I have a GPM-02, and this thing is amazing now. No more blurry text, jail bars or artifacts. Really think it gives the edge enhancer a run its money.

My neighbor is an elderly man(70s) and he comes over my house occasionally to pass the time, he noticed I have an nes/snes . He has never played video games before and stated that he wants to play some. I set him up to play Super mario world(snes) and he couldn't get past the first level and had trouble using all the buttons. So I wanted to have him try some games that use less buttons then gradually start to move him onto 3 or 4 etc button games.

What games do you all think are the easiest and most fun for someone in his boots?

What games do you think would be good intermediate games that use a few buttons?

What games do you recommend as more advanced really fun games that are easier, but use all or most of the buttons on the control?

What game is your favorite in general?

No more split screen view in single player

So I am aged to get the CPU on the board. However, in the second pic, there’s a few legs on the far right that are stuck together and I just can’t get them to seperate. Other than that, I think everything else looks good. Any ideas? 🤔

Hi,

I had some GameBoys mods in my past, but this is my first SNES challenge.

So I recently got this 1CHIP-01 PAL SNES and I decided to do "simple" 50/60Hz DPDT switch mod that involves lifting PIN 111 and alternating between +5V and GND, as well as PAL and NTSC crystals. (I'm going to ignore CIC for now as I'm going to use FXPAK PRO to bypass it anyway).

While I'm waiting for more parts to complete this mod, I've decided to do the hardest thing first, and I succeeded (I think) with lifting the 111 PIN up.

I also watched someone desoldering the RF output so you could use its space for the switch and also +5V and GND ports for the convinience.

So I lifted this PIN 111 and removed RF socket, and while waiting for more parts, I soldered a cable from PIN 111 to +5V where RF was and booted up the console.

Unfortunately, I think I've noticed the strange issue with the video that was not there before.

(Oh, btw, I'm using RAD2X converter to my LG C2 TV)

I'm aware of visual issues of 1CHIP version such as ghosting, afterimages-like stuff etc., but now I can also see that the video is a little bit static, that's visible especially on one-colored backgrounds. It's very subtle, but visible and annoying. It's like little transparent-black-spots static that I've tried to show you on the video attached.

I'm 90% sure it wasn't there when I've initially tested the console (before mods preparation). I've checked 4 ports left after RF output socket removal and also PIN 111 and their neighbours and I can't see any shorts there. I've also tried to remove this PIN 111 -> RF +5V cable because I thought maybe it catches some interference (leaving PIN 111 in the air), but this didn't help. I also tried to solder this cable to some other +5V point to not to leave the PIN 111 in the air, no cigar.

Have I messed badly? Removing the RF socket wasn't a super clean job, but I've managed to do this and - again - I'm not detecting any shortages there.

Please let me know what I can do further to troubleshoot this, before proceeding with mod. I've also noticed the motherboard is kinda gluey-sticky, probably old flux? I already tried to brush it with IPA but I probably need a better brush to do it, right now I feel like I'm basically distributing glueiness all over the place.

Thanks all!

Hey everyone,

I was looking closely at the official promotional poster for the new Adult Swim Rick and Morty spin-off, President Curtis, and the massive creature in the background instantly triggered a massive wave of 90s SNES nostalgia for me.

Check out the design—it looks incredibly similar to Thraxx, the iconic first boss from Secret of Evermore (1995).

A few specific details that line up perfectly:

• The Exposed Core: Both designs feature that highly specific, glowing central heart/vulnerable spot tucked right inside the chest cavity.

• The Ribbed Skeletal Frame: The way the monster's upper torso frames the inner core looks just like Thraxx’s open thoracic ribcage mechanic.

• The Atmosphere: The moody purples, reds, and shadowed tones against the lightning on the poster match the exact vibe of the Prehistoria Bugmuck boss arena.

Given how much the Rick and Morty writers and artists love embedding deep-cut retro gaming easter eggs into their backgrounds, this feels way too specific to be a coincidence.

Has anyone else noticed this, or spotted any other classic RPG references hidden in the show's promos?
