Picked up a SNES today and this is what it shows on the screen when it is on. Any idea of how to fix it? Cords are tested and work fine.

    have you tried the RF connection and the A/V connection? I've come across some SNES's in the past where only the RF output works.

    I don't have an RF cable...

    This may be silly, but did you make sure it's switched to the right channel? CH3-CH4

    Edit: oh, you don't have an RF switch.  Then I guess that doesn't apply..

    Try an RF cable and see if it does the same thing.

    NES, N64, or genesis one would work.

    (not 100% on the genesis one, but I do know a Nintendo RF works on a genesis, so it should work the other way around you'd think)

    I don't think N64 uses an RF cable.

    There's a pass though device that allows it, I used it when I first got my N64. Can't recall if it's first party, though.

    That little black box has the same plug as the Nintendo AV cable and it gives you a RF output.

    Hmm....You played snes on that tv before? I just got a new flat screen and my genesis won't work with it - does this vertical scroll constantly.
