look, i didn't mean to cuss in my last sentance in above post, i'm sorry, but you gotta understand, look at it from my view point. I've been going crazy looking for the past 2 weeks nonstop everyday on web search engines looking for any websites that have up to date snes dev info and forums, and so far all I can find is a handfull of websites that only have old info/articles and no way to get in touch with anyone cuz all the websites haven't been updated in years. Then I find this website and theres people who know about snes AND theres snes articles in the archive on the main page, PLUS the guy who runs the forum said he's most likely gonna be adding even more snes articles/links as he finds them. so to me in my mind it seems like he's gonna slowly start adding an snes section. hence why I figured it would be ok to ask 1 question, it's not like im gonna start asking a million questions, i respect that this is an nes forum. But even so, the nes and snes are different as you say it is, but yet they are so similiar at the same time in many way, it wont hurt if someone asks a question every now and then, it would prob benefit people cuz they could see how the snes works and they might decide to start dabbling in snes. As much as I like nes, there's not that much snes info out there as there is for nes, it's a shame, and the more people that get into the snes, then maybe one day we will have a better understanding of the snes and be able to share more info out there for new people to the scene, they don't have to leave the nes scene.
