Sorry if this comes out messed up as I'm using my Wii to type this.
So one day I decided to play Super Mario RPG. I hook up my SNES and put the game in. It starts up fine, until it gets to the video. Once it shows the battle scene it gets messed up. There's a lot of oddly colored blotches everywhere. I take it out to see if there's anything in the game and blow into it for good measure. Put it back in and turn it on and it goes to a black screen after it shows Bowser. I reset and try again but I skip the video this time. At the File Select screen Mario is blacked out. I go to start a new file anyway, but the naming screen gets glitched. I reset and try again and the name screen works fine. I'm in the castle and it looks fine until I go through the first door. It froze. I do this for about 30 more minutes then give up.
I then go to play Mortal Kombat II. Put it in and it starts without a problem. I get to the character screen and their all messed up! Parts of their bodies are black and white, and their torsos are jetting out. It kind of hard to explain. I decide to play anyway. After a few matches it freezes. I reset it and play again(the bodies are still messed up). So around my sixth match I jump over Johnny Cage and fall of the screen. Cage then slides off the left side of the TV. My brother and I laugh and I turn it off.
Now frustrated, I play Super Mario World. Start a new file and get to the yellow brick switch and it's all fine. Until I get to Yoshi's Island 3. I start off the level and get to the first spinny wood platform and jump on it. If falls below me and I die. Now back on the Overworld I try to save but the screen won't come up. I continue though and get past the level with fast jumps. I get to Iggy's Castle with no other problems. Get to the red door and press up. I die. I died right away. Somehow I fell into the lava BEHIND Iggy! Ticked, I turn it off.
Now I put in Super Punch Out. Video plays fine and I get to the Press Start screen. I press start and it freezes. Reset and try again. Skip the video and it freezes again.
Later, I get some Isopropyl alcohol and a few Q-tips. I clean both Mortal Kombat II and Super Punch Out. The characters in Mortal Kombat are still messed up and Super Punch Out still freezes.
Now, I come to you guys to see if you know what the problem is. I've checked some sites and found nothing. Someone did say to clean my SNES with the alcohol, but I wasn't sure if I should. I just hope it's easily fixable without having to open it up.
Thank you for your time and sorry for any spelling mistakes I didn't catch.
