How can I restore a yellow SNES top cover?

Pic related, mine looks pretty much the same
>>
hydrogen peroxide and UV light

Why wouldnt you just google this? Why would you ask this shithole? Are you stupid?
>>
>>389450929
Adam Koralik's console cleaning guides are all pretty good.

a cream form of hydrogen peroxide is more suitable since it's easier to spread around, then wrap in cling film

buy one that isn't yellowed

>>389452104
looks amazing, although i agree, that layer is too thick

>>389452505
this one is perfect, FUCK
>>
>>389457218
This is the only true answer. I actually bought a box full of as-is SNESes from ebay for about $100 and was able to piece together a couple of perfect condition consoles. The one I kept looks brand new and is clipped for Japanese cart use as well.
>>
>>389458354
I forgot to elaborate on why this is the only answer. The yellowed plastic is already doomed. It falls apart in your hand. I attempted to paint some of the yellowed parts and managed alright but ended up breaking pieces along the way just by touching them.
>>
>>389455576
I don't understand this meme. As a kid I had both. So I can safely say Genesis fanboys are fucked in the head. I hope when Genesis fanboys die they spend the rest of eternity in a genesis port of Mortal Kombat 2.

is there a reason why they changed the look of the snes?
>>
>>389458547
It's the same nostalgia and confirmation bias that leads people to believe the Playstation was better than the N64. Objectively, both the PS1 and Genesis did a thing or two better, it comes down to games and again objectively, pre Wii Nintendo always had better games.

>GOOGUHL IT

Google only directs you to content that contains the desired keywords. If nobody is willing to take a stab at the dark like the OP's question then eventually all "Googling" something will do will redirect you to forum posts full of retards telling people to google for the answer.
>>
>>389458798
t. spoonfed idiot who never learned how to google

Even if you were 100% correct, an imageboard where threads are deleted in mere hours is not the place for soliciting and archiving advice to index on google.

>>389458774
I feel like PSX vs. N64 was a lot less black and white. (also had both).
N64 graphics were by far easier on the eyes. It definitely did 3d better. But the laughable space limitations the cartridges had really screwed them out of a lot of great titles. I remember renting the N64 port of Resident Evil 2 out of morbid curiosity and the audio was just ghastly.
I've always favored good audio over good visuals and PSX definitely won in the audio department since N64 was still using midi style music and PSX had full CD type music available. And when PSX did need to be visual it could use FMV as a crutch, and indeed FMV's eventually became a sort of "reward" for reaching certain points of gameplay.
In terms of "mascot" titles then sure, I'll take Mario and Zelda over Crash Bandicoot any day.

But other than the laughably bad ports of all the old Final Fantasy games, PSX won the JRPGs of the era. And Sega Saturn is just gay and not worth mentioning. My friend had a Saturn. Nothing really felt noteworthy about it.
>>
>>389458798
That would be the case if this weren't a very old and very common problem that has been solved for decades. Do what I said in my post and you will guaranteed find the answer with no room for confusion. Don't defend the retard OP.
>>
>>389459494
Let's just face it baka. You had absolutely nothing to contribute. You still have absolutely nothing to contribute. But some fucked up ego issue of yours requires you to be showered with (You)'s at all times in order to feel any sense of worth in your life which is why you felt the need to come here and make your non-contribution to begin with.
>>
>>389459672
That can only be said for you, not me. I provided a quality solution called "look it up".
>>
>>389452043
>>389452104
I see people say this a lot, but the yellow isn't just discoloration, its science shit. The plastic is basically turning to dust. Paint won't hold it together, you have to reverse the process first.

To be fair, the SNES is far from the only product that uses ABS plastics.

Only FMV audio and voices were bad. The music and sound effects were fine

Wow I'll bet you're tearing up right now.

>>389459420
Sega Saturn has some incredible games, it just doesn't compare in terms of graphics or life span.
>>
>>389458547
Mortal Kombat 2 on Genesis might have looked worst but it played better. Less input lag. Less slowdown.

If you thought gameplay was important, Genesis was your console.

If thought more colors trumped better gameplay, then you were a SNES fan.

Even if you take very good care of your electonics, they're slowly but continuously being damaged by moisture in the air.

Tick tock.

It's kind of weird to have a console themed after a game with the title on it. If the title weren't there and it was just colors and cool aesthetics, it wouldn't look so weird to me.

I'm scared, bros. I know l can put thermal paste and possibly fix it but l'm afraid l'd still fuck that up somehow. Well, at least my PS4 and PC keep me busy.
