On a TV you might not notice it, since I think most TVs chop off a few pixels at the edges (probably just under that black part ). But like Disch said, many games do this.

Yeah, my older brother has the cart. We popped it in his NES and it does the same thing. So listen to Disch, he knows the NES like the back of his hand & take Colin's advice, get the GBC port and you should be all set.

Crystallis is just generally a graphically glitchy game. The status bar flicker and talk box flicker is normal -- as the game actually did that on the NES. The discolor thing sounds like attribute table runoff (also apparent in SMB3) -- which is normal NES behavior (any game which scrolls horizontally with horizontal mirroring will display at least a bit of that discoloration)

So this is not an emu problem. Crystallis is just really ugly. The emus you're using are likely doing things properly.

Sad thing is, I seem to remember Nesticle running it flawlessly. Keep trying different emulators because I'm sure one of them nails it or at least keeps the glitches to what would be on the NES cart.

Failing that, there's always the GBC port.

From what I remember, it was there on my original cartridge, it just didn't show up that badly on the television.



It is a great game.

I cannot seem to find an emulator that runs this game properly.

Older Emulators have severe graphic glitches.

The best emulators i know of, such as FCEU 0.98.12, Nestopia, Jnes. They all will run the game, but when walking the edges of the screen are discolored, and ALL the time there is some flickering just above the status box, and on top of text boxes when you talk to people, this is severely annoying.

I don't know if this is an emulator problem or if its a problem with the various ROMS of Crystalis i have tried, but I'm desperate! I love this game and want it to run like it's supposed to.

Thank you,
Xerxes
