Hi guys
I know something like this has been covered before but as nobody posted any pics im not sure if my issues are the same and also its different depending on what games i play.
Some games have almost like a graphical glitch on the left hand side of the screen and yet other titles namely Choplifter, Fatal run play without any screen glitch but are very fuzzy, Its nothing to do with tv type or tuning as i have tested it across four different crt's, The other thing is that when i play 2600 games on this 7800 they are perfect absolutely crystal clear.
When i initially purchased Ms.Pac man as this was the first time i saw this glitch i wondered whether i had been sold an NTSC copy now i dont know if it would even run but i had read that some NTSC games will run but with graphical issues, the other game i have heard this mentioned about is centipede and that was the second game i noticed it on.
I had pondered just buying another 7800 but thought somebody might know what this problem is, I have stripped the machine and cleaned the rf connection and it looks like new, The console itself is mint but i have also cleaned the cartridge slot and all the offending cartridges but with no change, I am awaiting delivery of a signal booster to see if that helps.
Ill include screen shots showing the glitch and a 2600 game with no issues at all.
Thanks in advance
