SNEdge is an Open Source image sharpener for the Super Nintendo / SNES consoles. This mod aims at correcting the well documented blurred or smeared video output from the 2 chip SNES consoles. The boards design is made available through the ThunderTechnologies repository in GitHub, where the installation instructions are also held.
Please note that while this kit is designed to be installed in any revision of the SNES, different revisions might need different “aids” to operate properly and not show video noise. Please check below in “known issues and solutions” for the revision of your console. Your revision might need different things.
There are two different installation of this mod: Sidecar and Full RGB bypass. These methods might require different installation. Please ensure you check the main GitHub repository for up-to-date information
