Is it okay to talk about modding consoles on this forum as long as it doesn't involve anything like piracy? For example I'm looking for help modding a SNES to run at 60Hz instead of 50Hz but I'm not sure if this kind of talk is aloud. The mod doesn't consist of 'chipping' the console, just soldering in a couple of switches, resistors and wires.

Thanks :).

If you're overclocking it don't forget to pimp it out with an acrylic side panel and some cold cathodes. :D

I don't see why this wouldn't be allowed.

Yeah I didn't think it wouldn't be allowed but I didn't enjoy my last holiday to banville :p.

Anyway, I finally found the guide for my version of the SNES, it's in German though so it's not very clear. Anyone care to help traslate it into proper english please? I think I know what to do following this guide but the Google translation isn't great.

Do you have the newer version with the single large CPU and no PPUs too? I have one with the PPUs (Which there are loads of guide for) but messed it up and now the screen has been pushed down by about a third :p.
 


I've done it :D. 60Hz and NTSC goodness :D! I ended up doing it the painstakingly hard way of remove a chip on the newer version of the SNES and soldering it onto the older version of the SNES :p. Now I just need to sort the case out.
