SNES Central on hiatus

Perhaps it should be obvious by the fact that there were only four updates on
SNES Central last year, but work on this site is not currently a priority for
me. I have spent a bunch of time during the past few years to create a database
system for SNES Central that was pretty much essential to manage all the data on
this site. This system is actually probably about 75% complete, and much of the
most difficult aspects have been coded. However, for a number of reasons, I have
not been able to commit time to finishing it to allow updates on the site to
resume. First of all, I am actually working on another archival project that is
unrelated to video games, and this is a bigger priority for me. Secondly, in the
past few years much of my free time has been taken up by other activities,
namely learning Japanese and running.

Because of these things, I would consider SNES Central to be on hiatus for the
foreseeable future, at least until the other archival project I am working on is
complete. It is fine to continue sending me things (through email is best), but
please be aware that it may be years before they get put onto the site. This
site is not going away, and at some point I will resume updating. When that
happens, I will post here.

Pokémon Gold and Silver bootleg

Pokémon Gold and Silver is a bootleg platforming game featuring Pokémon from the
second generation of the series. Many thanks to Edgar "Mcfly" Gonzalez for
sending in the pictures of the bootleg!

Hercules bootleg

Hercules is a bootleg original game, where the pirates tried to copy many
elements from the PS1 game, including the graphics and level design. For what it
is, it isn't as bad as expected, but definitely not worth playing. Many thanks
to Edgar "Mcfly" Gonzalez for sending in the pictures of the bootleg, and to
Jason from Game-Rave for sending me the PS1 screenshots!

Street Fighter Alpha 2 Pirate Cart

Street Fighter Alpha 2 is another pirate cart that is surprising, due to it
requiring the SDD-1 chip. I already had an article up, but this new copy had a
different shell and is dumped. Thanks to Lucas Leal for sending this to me.

Super Mario Kart Pirate Cart

Super Mario Kart might be considered to be a difficult game to make pirate copy,
due to it using the DSP1 chip. However, it looks like they succeeded. Thanks to
Lucas Leal for sending this to me.

Super Momotaro Dentetsu III Pirate Cart

I realize I haven't been updating the content on this site much lately. I have
been making some progress on my database system, but this has been slow going.
Anyways, I have received some interesting pictures of pirated SNES/SFC games, so
I thought I would make some pages. The first is a pirated version of Super
Momotaro Dentetsu III. It is notable in that the cart label appears to be legit.
The PCB board, though done in a way that it might fool someone naive, is clearly
fake. Thanks to Yolt1 for sending this to me.
