I turn on my Gradius III and I get a black and white checker grid for the screen. ???. Not my system, is the game pak. Any reason for this?

I get it on mine too. Does your game hang on this screen? I just wait a little while and everything procedes as normal.. if you've ever booted up the arcade Gradius III the warm-up/test screen looks JUST like it, so I think it's intentional, strangely enough.

I think it stays that way, but it has been a while. I do remember "some" Konami game slow starting (long delay before the game starts), don't remember if it was THIS one or not...

It's this one. I was asked to repair a GradiusIII like that once.
it wasn't broken. LOL

Thanks. I'll have to try it again. Good thing, as I was looking for a new copy :)
