Even third party would still be NOT designed or intended in any way for Super Famicom. Just because something appears to work, doesn't mean it's a good idea or offer enough for full power usage scenarios.ApolloBoy wrote:I don't think he said that he was using the official SNES power supply, just that he was using a European one. If it's a third party PSU there's the possibility that it's not providing enough amperage to power up the SNES and SuperFX cart without issues.theclaw wrote:stop!
nintend's snes pal power cord outputs AC.
super famicom is rated for DC.
super fx games could be having problems due to higher power draw than basic carts.

Re: Super Famicom green horizontal lines
its possible that it could be that.
But on mine I am using all original parts.
And I have that one green line.
I've tried my snes on two lcd tvs to the same effect.
I blame old tech on new.

We're not talking about the vertical line that stays put that we had that big discussion thread on before.flojocabron wrote:And I have that one green line.

Re: Super Famicom green horizontal lines
Yeah i'll have to try it with a voltage adapter sometime to see if it differs. Thanks for your assistance everyone!
Re: Super Famicom green horizontal lines
I didn't mean voltage. Nintendo of Europe redesigned the SNES to expect alternating current power input.Siper wrote:Yeah i'll have to try it with a voltage adapter sometime to see if it differs. Thanks for your assistance everyone!
Rather than direct current that American, Japanese, and Korean SNES all used.

Re: Super Famicom green horizontal lines
Tried a voltage converter and it now works fine, probably should've done that in the first place...
