    So I have tried using SMC and SFC ROM's with the new patch for Jojo's Bizarre Adventure for the SFC that can be found HERE I have also tried adding a ROM header using Tush to the No-Intro ROM JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken (Japan). Here is some more info about it as well. I have never had troubles running these games before and as far as I can tell there is no special chip inside this cart but I do have the DSP-1 chip installed if it was needed. I have tried Hi and Lo ROM settings as well. Most I can get is changing the ID to Everdrive ID and it displays a bunch of garbage.

    Did you ever manage to get this to work? I've tried the ROM on Bsnes/Higan and it works, however when I try and boot it on my Super Everdrive I just get a purple screen.

    Edit: I got it working. I used Lunar Expand to make the rom 2mbit, as I had a similar problem with Final Fantasy V, and it boots/plays fine.

    Really? Expanding the rom helps? I tried a few files with this game but everytime I go to the menu screen or something else the game just freezes.

    It did in this example. I feel it was similar to Final Fantasy V, where the ROM was expanded by the translators to be larger, but the translators neglected to edit the header so even though it was actually 2mbit, the Super Everdrive reads it as 1mbit and only flashes half the data. By using Lunar Expander it just adjusts the header to be the same as the actual romsize.
