This blows my mind. My friend tried playing mario all-stars on my SNES the other day and said there was a screen saying it's illegal to copy games. So I go into the room to see whats up. Where you select what saved game to play, it was random graphics instead of the world number. So I figure the game is just dirty. When you would try to play one of the saved games, a copyright notice would appear in blue text. I laughed and cleaned the game.
So everything was working fine after that. Then I hear "the controls aren't working right." Now the game defaults to type B control and even if you change it to A, it still plays as type B in the game. This affects all 4 mario games.
Is there a way to completely reset the memory on this game? I seem to remember being able to do a "clear all" function on other Nintendo brand SNES games but I don't have the book with me. I have even gone as far as popping the game in and out with the power on and jiggling the power cord to try to erase all the data, but the battery must still be very good. I've been collecting for a long time and this has really got me stumped.
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advence,
Erik
