How to play Sega games on your SNES Super Nintendo

It does seem to run a bit slower as the SNES had a slower CPU than the Sega Genesis and even the old 8-bit Sega Master System. Blast processing is really a real thing.

[@lucas_the_floofas]

Could also be a pal game running at 50hz

[@Nin10Guy]

@@lucas_the_floofas I don't think 50 Hz is that slow as Sonic's suspension in the air after his jump feels like moon gravity at times in the footage. It could be a combination of running at PAL 50 Hz while also being underclocked with the SNES's slower CPU.

[@uliseshumbertosaucedacordo874]

This cartridge does not convert Sega code into snes code, it is an emulator and has composite cables output on the back. It does, however, take power and button presses from the snes

[@ChrisMX9]

@@Nin10Guy it's a water level

[@clothinghanger6978]

The snes isn't even running the game, the cart is, all it does is use the SNES for button input and power

I wonder if you could play master system games on this thing with the power base converter.

[@GameboyCustom]

Challenge accepted 👍

[@BouncekDeLemos]

So I take it that the lock-on with Sonic 2 doesn't work? (I can't remember) Iicr, these run their own video, and would need it's own A/V cable connected to the cartridge. Also, for people that are wondering, the reason why it's a little bit slower in this video is because he's running it on a PAL console. It rus at normal speed on NTSC consoles. You might get some glitchy interference on the sides of the screen no matter what console you're playing it on, and sometimes the picture won't be stable if the screen from the game is entirely white. (Like a white background)

[@ibob148]

He didn't play a Sonic 2 level. I think it should boot Sonic 2 and Knuckles. What had it's own av out. The Sonic and Knuckles game does not.

[@BouncekDeLemos]

@@ibob148 he connected S&K w/Sonic 2 at first, then when he wasn't playing it, I assumed that it wasn't compatible to it? The RetroGEN adapter has it's own AV cable. The SNES is working more like a power and control device, and cannot use it's own video.

[@ibob148]

@@BouncekDeLemos ah. I noticed the Sonic 2 isn't in when he is playing the game. I think it most not have worked or he edited the wrong clip into the video.

[@BouncekDeLemos]

@@juliamxd9614 I will admit, it does seem much slower. Comparatively, the adapter I have runs at normal speed, and I made that assumption based on me owning and running it on a US SNES.

[@AlexBissonnette]

@@BarryRerack147 games run slower in PAL regions if the devs didn't account for it.

[@tortillademaiz1]

It doesn't, you're better off using emulators, they're free anyway. I guess this could be a neat product for other genesis games where fast processing isn't an issue.

[@tortillademaiz1]

Also if you look at the top of the screen during gameplay, there's something weird going on there, clearly showing the SNES struggling trying to process the game.

Sega Genesis CPU = 7.68MHz Super Nintendo CPU = 3.58MHz I mean sure the Super Nintendo could send out MIPS data instructions a lot quicker than the Sega Genesis. But that doesn't excuse the fact that the Sega Genesis is still the much faster system than the Super Nintendo.

[@jonathancrews169]

​@@myrongaines5542 snes was a superior console, as it should being nearly 2 yrs ahead on tech. But genesis had some worthy games that snes didnt as snes had some genesis did not. But take contra 3, an amazing contra,i loved it.. but contra hard corps was even better imo. Neither game was a lazy port, just different styles. Contra 3 had the usual formula with some cool changes like weapons and bombs then hard corps ramped it all up. Better ost, graphics and gameplay content had high replay value with different paths, characters and endings.
