    Hello all i was going through some game sets and found a bunch with a (PD) on the end.
    None of them seem to work on my supereverdrive.
    Can someone explain to me what these are?
    Thanks

    These ROMs are usually demos, and you are true, don't run in Super Everdrive as are usually created for emulators.

    Best regards.

    Alot of them might not run because they may have a bad internal header or no internal header at all. Or they are an invalid ROM/file size which confuses the loading routine in the Super EverDrive. Alot of the PD demos DO run on the real SNES and not just emulators. Unlike NES where this was not true, SNES Copiers were widely available for running demos and homebrew on the actual console.
