# Corrupting the SNES

## Introduction

The Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), also known as the Super NES or Super Nintendo. It has a dedicated SONY Audio Chip for music and SFX and has native image transformation capabilities such as Mode7 and later on got SuperFX through the use of expansion chips.

Recommended setup: Nightmare engine, Hellegine, Freeze, Pipe
{% endhint %}

## Recommended Settings

The SNES is a somewhat similar to the NES but has more memory and visual features to mess with. It also runs its programs directly from the ROM. The default settings in RTC are adequate for corrupting the system. If you add the System Bus or CARTROM to the selected domains, it will unlock many more effects but makes rewind unusable for uncorrupting. You can get more results using 65C816 Instruction Lists.

## Expected results

The SNES tends to generate a lot of clown vomit like the NES. Similar effects to it are to be expected. However, the SNES is a bit more crashy than the NES and the BSNES core in Bizhawk can end up causing Bizhawk to crash.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://corrupt.wiki/systems/snes/corrupting-the-snes.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
