Super Mario RPG for the Super Famicom

Super Mario RPG for the Super Famicom, the SNES, and Switch!

Happy 30th to Super Mario RPG! It was released in Japan 30 years ago on March 9, 1996. North America got it later in May. I don't believe there was an official PAL release until the Switch remake.

Also, tomorrow is #MAR10DAY !

Been looking into this. Pricey, but worth it. Most PCMCIA sound cards aren't too DOS compatible. I believe this one is based on a IBM MWave...

Thanks, I will look into this! I mean I know realistically I'll either leave it or replace it, but if there's a chance at saving it, I'm all for it!

I did it for a Thinkpad 380, if these exist, I'll do it again!

Also, I need to get a PCMCIA sound card. Maybe a Pi Pico based one?

I kinda knew that but was hoping for a "hail mary" that suggested "Just replace the caps and pour 600ml of IPA and all is well!"

I plan on disassembling the display soon and maybe finding new old stock...

We have power and a display! Though kinda dim, might need to recap that as well. Also, strange bubble like things in the screen?

So finally got around to recapping this. Well, started. Still have a few to go (ran out of time.)

Dammit! (adds to the f#$@ing list of s#!+ I don't need because it's cool.)

No problem! Just replace the IPA and spray on some caps! Everyone knows that's how you fix retro stuff!

Pickups time! Normally these are Shorts but I wanted to pay a little more attention to them. Plus some "fantastic" gameplay and finagling of my FDS...
