Super Boy 1 and 2 don't work #154

Super Boy 1 and 2 launch to scrambled graphics. Sound is there. Freezes when pressing start with a sound loop.

Super Boy 3 and 4 work fine.

Does any behavior change when you toggle the options for "Disable Mapper", "BIOS", and "Region"? Some games require those options to be set to different modes and then the game reset or reloaded after.

I fiddled with every possible combo of all those settings and no luck.

Try and rename the file extension for that rom to .sg for me. It was apparently an SG-1000 game but distributed in an SMS case basicaly.

Changed it on both Super Boy 1 and Super Boy 2. Both still have the corrupted graphics. Also tried changing the other settings you mentioned before with the same results.

It's possible the same hex edit mentioned here of the rom might make it work for now until the core is fixed.

I tried editing them (with my limited knowledge of hex editing) and both boot just like before. It does sound similar to what they're talking about.

Guess I'll just wait until it's fixed.
