I found my old Street Fighter II: Championship Edition Genesis game while cleaning the basement the other day, so I figured I would dust it off and fire up the old circuit bent Sega Genesis and take it for a test drive.
Circuit bending is the art of creating new connections from electronics, exposing hidden effects that were not desired-transforming the video or audio into something radically different.
This became popular in the early 2000s with old casio keyboards and the like, but can certainly be used with old video equipment to get all these great glitch effects! I've found that each game turns out a bit differently, although to the untrained eye, it may seem like just a mess of pixels and colors!
What do you think of the final product?...Certainly quite different than the original?
Thanks for reading...I hope you liked my post!
I'll add some of my other circuit bent Genesis works down below, for those that may be interested!
