Thank you, ikari_01! The SNES was, and still is my favourite console of all-time and you (along with the awesome SD2SNES contributors) helped to make it even better. Thanks to Bob for doing this interview, also.
When a product allows you to change games this fast, it really is a game changer! Great interview and what a hero to the retrogaming community, TY ikari_01 👌
You could always use an ADC in an HDMI mod to handle the edge cases: pull the video digitally from the PPU when available, pull a pixel clock locked digital version from the analog RGB via the ADCs whenever there is no digital video signal available.
Great interview! It's unfortunate that ikari got cut off during the section about the dual RAM buses. He was about to say that he gave redguy the info and he used it to implement the SuperFX further :)
Great video! Love your content! I'm on the fence about getting Far East of Eden Zero translated cart on eBay and waiting for SPC7110 integration on sd2snes haha...
I have a SD2SNES and use it to make chiptunes and test romhacks! I heard that there’s an update that roughly makes Super FX games playable, looking forward to checking that out.
Awesome to hear about the PPU2 test pins and how its almost possible to get a digital RGB out (potential HDMI mod) out directly on SNES. Man, so close. I wonder if the mode 7 edge cases could somehow me suppressed. Maybe down the line someone will figure out a solution.
Nick Wallette agreed. Hopefully they can identify and isolate what trigger the behavior then force it to never happen. It could open up some awesome options.
I wonder if that's possible. Somehow it feels like some sort of unfinished feature, as though they were going to use the PPUs for things other than the SNES only.
yeah, this has really got me curious. Do those test pins go anywhere like say the expansion port... I wish I knew more in this deep area, I would love to investigate.
37:30 Hmmm... I know this is less of a concern on the SNES, with its DMA and such, but wouldn't it make more sense to detect RTI instructions and insert the hook *after* the game's NMI routine has executed? Since, you know, the actual NMI code might need to do a bunch of PPU writes that can only happen during vblank. It would be a lot more complicated to implement, but
Love the SD2SNES. It was ahead of it's time and I can't imagine using a different SNES flash cart. Absolutely worth the price.

Excellent interview.
Bob you disclose all the faces behind the most well known avatars in the retro community, first KRIKzz, now ikari_01. :)
He did an interview with Krikzz? I have searched but I didn’t find it
Nice to see ikari_01 on a RetroRGB interview ! Thank you , Bob !
Great interview both of you! Ikari_01, you are the man! Love the sd2snes dude.
Everybody in the retro community should give this guy a hand for all his hard work!
hi ikari. Happy to see the snes'hero of the sd2snes. thank you guy :)

ikari rules and i was pleased to see he slightly resembles andy richter who i also love
It most certainly is a "game changer". ;)
Big thank you to Ikari_01 for all your work!! Also thanks to RetroRGB for this intresting inteview, love these kinds of videos!!

Console Kits, of course not.
