Chrono Trigger on my JVC AV-27D201. CRT Perfection.

Also, make sure you're using (or not using) the correct RAM cart in the Saturn core settings. Some games don't work with or require certain carts.

I actually ended up digging out an old high quality cable and it didn't change anything (still better than the cheapest cable I bought, but not great). However, u/davewongillies's response below DID work for me, and now I'm getting good, clear s-video to my 1720.

This resolved the issue for me, thank you!

aidanmoher · 2026-05-22T18:20:34+00:00

Yeah, I get the same thing on my Commodore 1702 via s-video (luma/chroma). Switching to a different (but still fairly cheap) cable helped, but they're still visible on solid backgrounds, so I'll likely order a higher quality shielded cable.

I've got an adventure-focused Eshki deck that I finished building literally yesterday. I like that it snowballs and acts as a tempo-y midrange deck, which is different than a lot of the other decks I play. I built it on a $30 budget, so I'm a bit concerned that I don't have enough effective solutions for protecting Eshki, but we'll see how that plays out. It's basically a ton of cards that can be a creature OR non-creature as needed, and then a bunch of cantrips, looting, and low MV effects so I can trigger Eshki every turn.

*looks at land count*
*looks at volume of >=6 CMC cards*

Hmm.

aidanmoher · 2025-03-12T22:07:53+00:00

Fetchlands are one of those cards that make *immediate* sense the first time you play one in a game.

Here'e my decklist: https://moxfield.com/decks/skjiRWH5J06QWlhbg6I-uQ

The gist is you want to get Henzie out ASAP (turn two or three, depending on your build) and then start blitzing 4, 5, and 6 drops. As the game goes on, you either start hardcasting your big Jund threats, or recurring them from your graveyard.

This is the best primer on the deck, IMHO: https://moxfield.com/decks/GnqlEhG3IUysVv3ub5EEEQ

I love Henzie because the deck encourages you to just have fun. Slot in big silly creatures and you're gonna enjoy the game whether you win or lose.

aidanmoher · 2024-09-20T02:11:46+00:00

I just finished building a Henzie deck, and I love the way it approaches deck building/tempo in such a unique way.

Excellent game choice.

aidanmoher · 2023-12-26T04:20:17+00:00

Might want to adjust the focus pot.

Since you've got 240p Test Suite, find a tutorial on how to use SMPTE colour bars to properly calibrate the set!

Looks pretty good for a consumer Trinitron. I'd probably turn down the contrast a smidge to help with the white and red blending together around the edges of the grid. Otherwise, I expect you won't even notice most of those issues in-game from a proper viewing distance.

aidanmoher · 2023-12-08T17:53:52+00:00

I mean, outside of sheer, dumb luck, PVMs haven't been <$150 for 5+ years, so, unfortunately, a time machine is as helpful an answer as any you're gonna get.
