Your adaptor probably doesn't connect all the "outer pins" on the snes cart. That should cause glitches with super gameboy. Or those pins are dirty. If this is correct starfox shouldn't work either. I checked with a multimeter, all of those connections seem to work, on both sides of both ...

That's werid. I'll have to see if I can test that with a multimeter when I get home. The connector has a slot and an output for the "outer pins," (by which i assume you mean the seperate pins "floating" to the sides) but it may just be there as an anchor. Thank's for the heads up...

Something interesting i discovered last night: I have a imported SNES from japan, Super Famicom, and as a result i have to use a "super converter" when I play american cartridges that don't fit becuase the plastic gets in the way. When the Super-Gameboy is used with the adaptor, the 16-bit...

I'm aware of that in the case of the Super Game Boy, however in a Japan Only Release (and very limited TV sales release in the US) there was a predecessor to the SGB called the Super Game Boy 2 that added extra features. It supposedly contains a different processor than the original Super Game Boy, ...

I've looked around for more info, and now i'm a little more confused. Dwedit posted this when I asked about getting GBC to run off an adaptor for SNES or NES: A nes or snes wouldn't be able to display GBC games. Tepples explained the matter in a little more detail: Game Boy has 4 colors per screen-a...

Game Boy has 4 colors per screen-aligned 8x8 pixel area, which is how Wide Boy and Super Game Boy can buffer tiles in VRAM. But on Game Boy Color, it's easy (using some hblank raster effects and some sprite overlapping) to display 56 different colors within one such area. And I've seen GBC demos th...

A nes or snes wouldn't be able to display GBC games. Really? I thought that a NES might not be able to, but I'm a bit surprised that the SNES wouldn't be able to. I though tit would if one were to build a Super Gameboy Device using a GBC. I admit, that I don't understand exactly how the Super Game ...

I wish I knew more about the gameboy/nes and electronics. I'd love to take a gameboy color and some old cartridges to make a NES or Supernes game boy color player. (None of the commerical units can play the color only games, with the exception of the GBA player, and I don't have a gamecube anymore.)...

Doh. Now I feel a little dumb. I kept searching and I found a little information, although the schematic is a little beyond my comprehension. For instance, Super GameBoy schematic - http://fms.komkon.org/GameBoy/Tech/SuperGameBoy.gif and hardwaare description - http://www.devrs.com/gb/files/sgbhard....

Recently i've become somewhat curious about the function/design of products such as the Super-Game boy, GBA player, and the in-house development prototypes wide-boy and wide-boy64, all of which were devices created to play Game-Boy, Game-Boy Color, and Game-boy Advance games on the NES, Super-Ninten...

It's actually fairly easy to do a famicom to nes controller conversion. When I found out my famicom was borked, I took off the player 1 controller, and hooked it up to the cord and plug from an old NES pad I had. Now I play all my NES games with an awesome - 8+ foot corded famicom controller. I most...

-Whether it's CMOS or TTL or <insert family>, your idea still wouldn't work. You don't seem to be very good at reading. Let's try again: i'm done and don't need any more suggestions about what i'm doing wrong, because i've already done it wrong and i'm not building anything anymore. Keywords are: I...

I do not know why you keep refusing to read kevtris'es posts he has told you what needs to be switched. I am no expert but I know who are the right people to listen to for more info read his last 2 posts It's not that i'm "Refusing to read" his posts, its that before I started the project...

Huh. Well, i'm afraid i don't really have any pictures, because we only got so far. Until today, I didn't know about the CMOS situation, and after talking it over with Mike (who knows a fair deal more about electrnoics than I) we decided that model wouldent work out, and even if the cmos didn't draw...

I do not think cutting the power would work because the people who know what they are doing said it would not, if you want to power the carts off the NES cutting the power would be necessary but your will probably need to do more than that If something requires electricty to function, it stops func...
