I turned on my Super Nintendo for the first time (got it used at a flea-market a while back but only just got a power adapter) and it has large bars that scroll down the screen distorting the color either green or red. I tried it with both Street Fighter 2 and Secret of Evermore with the same result. I have cleaned the cartridge, the connection, checked the video connection (I’m actually using an adapter designed for N64 and Gamecube. idk if that would cause this.) I tried to Google the problem but all I came up with was stuff about emulators.
All I can suggest is trying another television. If this is a flatscreen, there’s a chance the old-style signals are confusing the hell out of your television. Also, if you’re using twisty co-ax cable you probably want to use yellow-red-white cables instead.
maybe because its 30 YEARS OLD
This problem occurs when the snes is too old or has been used too much…..u might wanna check this out for more info :
