Of course! But also whatever is on my hard drive that's under 1.44MB.

I get that on my NEC Multisync CRT monitor on game systems, only when their border colour is bright, and the H-Size is extended so that the border starts off the left side of the screen: the brightness seems to 'wrap'. I don't know if the cause is an electronic fault or just how tubes/timing work.

Interesting! It kind of looks like the SPC acts like a Z80 (dbnz mnemonic), but with 6502 register names...?

The border colour (where the first bit of controllable colour starts after the colourburst in composite) actually has fixed timing horizontally, I think. It's the active pixel area that can have 3 different resolutions (dot clocks) and dimensions that can slide around within the border dimensions.

Thank you for your great work since the '90s too, Zophar!

Yep! I have some more (sorry, poor-quality) photographs here: www.chrismcovell.com/secret/SFC_1...

I agree, but the article needed a final proofreading:
"The engineer sugests that..."
"The suggeation for a hardcore mode, makes sense."
Spelling 'suggest' correctly seems to be a hill this author can't climb; and that unnecessary and incorrect comma is irksome. This isn't a speech to be read aloud.

I was most impressed with how cool you acted in the face of laptop & missing notes difficulties. 👍

Book-Offs are mostly where the dirt-common retro games are brought in in loads from HardOff by dumptruck and left to die. **Almost** not worth stopping by them.

Why not just tax their earnings at regular corporate rates like normal countries do? <-- naive but... the right thing to do?

Yup, it got cheat codes in the magazines sent in by players (how??!) and everything. Then nope.

1983. I always see the most beautiful styles and designs in TVs, stereos, appliances, etc., and I always peg it at '83 and I'm usually right.

a big Arlo Guthrie fan...?

Hopefully "LDAIM 100" doesn't default to meaning Octal... 🤢

Hey, you can get more of the original design with a little re-jigging. Here is a mock-up that should fit in the NES' constraints -- you can use sprites to touch up other areas that stand out.
