You should respect the developer's intentions.

>this happens
What happens? Looks normal to me aside from really washed out looking colors.

>>4216069
the giant vertical line in the middle that all snes apparently have.

>>4216069
He's probably referring to the vertical stripe, it's present in all SNES models and visible in every game, but as OP said it's much easier to see when using s-video/rgb. I seem to notice it mostly on dark purple/blue backgrounds, like the opening level in Megaman X.

>>4216040
If it bothers you that much you could just use composite. It's barely noticeable most of the time anyway.

That vertical white bar is barely noticeable when you actually play the fucking games.

My rose-tinted glasses must be on way too tight, I don't remember that line at all. I figured it was due to whatever shitty setup OP had.

get a load of this guy.

>>4216087
It's generally not as visible in person as it is in that pic.

Replace the voltage regulator with one rated for higher amperage.

>>4216040
I'm assuming you already googled it. But just in case.

Also, my SNES does this. Yours might be worse, but I just turned my brightness down a couple notches and it's unnoticeable now using S-Video.

the line is comfy

I wish I could emulate the line
