Yeah, it sure looks like a SNES motherboard, doesn't it:

If you're going to be condescending you do at least need to be right.

Yes - they did it with the famicom. Before you waste your time, yes, I know SNES is far more complex, but it's certainly possible, especially if there's a large cash incentive.

There have been pirate Megadrives around for years, and they don't use a standard Megadrive board before someone suggests it...

yeah ive seen that noac hard ware before in those crazy Famiclone kits this could have been a prototype pirate an experiment on duping looks, (not a vary good one) or just a regular trick famiclone kit in a bored out snes.

The main snes processor code has been replicated in the fpga in the lower right. There are still supporting chips that were standard (probably the sound processing is all done if fpga)
So, the snes in the tristar is half on a chip and half in real hardware :)

Don't drag the NES into this - you said the Tristar had full SNES hardware, and you were wrong.

I don't see the SPC700 board/hardware anywhere, which isn't surprising since the chip was a funky Nintendo/Sony colaboration and I doubt either would want to sell stock to HK pirates, guess it must be in the FPGA in the lower left (I'm guessing you meant lower left ;)).

Have you opened up one of the Xinga SNES consoles? It'd be interesting to see what's inside.

Quiet you :P
My mom's sence of left and right is even worse than mine. She said she's gonna tattoo left and right onto her hands :)
Then again, she'd probably tattoo the words on the wrong hands :P

Just make the L's with your hands. The one that makes an L is left. The one that makes a backwards L is right.

The backwards L isn't right, it's wrong :P . There is no real backwards L. Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Problem is, it only has one game. Most people want a SNOAC with more games than that.

LOL. I just looked at my last post, and it took me 5 minutes to figure that out :wink: .

LOL. I typed that in the dark, and typed KIK, not LOL :D .

I'd guess it's more likely to be Megadrive based, since the (legit) R&D is already done there. I want to get one of these to open and fiddle with...
