I reorganized the site, cleaned up all the HTML sources, changed all formattings to CSS and made them more compatible. The site now looks perfect in Mozilla/Netscape 6.x but should be still more than readable in any text browser.
Anti Resonance released the all new version 2.5 of his SNESAmp plugin for Winamp on the 2nd of this month. He also released SPC2ROM which enables all owners of SNES copiers to listen to SPC music in their original environment.
Updated song guessing contest song (hope you all don't get confused by its move :p).
I'm now in the progress of catching up with all the stuff I missed in the past months so please stay patience. Thank you for visiting! -datschge

Well, sorry, bad timing. We had a lot of minor server problems and I had a lot of personal stuff to worry about (like the loveparade). Sorry for the lack of update in the past weeks. But now we're back.
Today's update is rather minor: Updated the Kirby's Super Star set as well as the song guessing contest (no more weekly but rather random). More should come soon. - datschge

Greetings. Death Adder here, webmaster of SuperFighter.Com. I will be assisting Datschge with this website, adding new SPC sets and generally keeping the place nice and tidy. For my first update, I have:
Added new Robotrek (Slapstick) (by Ayako Yoda), Super James Pond (Super James Pond 2 Alternate) (by Richard Joseph), and Super James Pond 2 (by Keith Tinman) sets. -deathadder

   05.07.2001   

Added new Demon's Crest set (thanks to SquareTex). Already updated weekly song guessing contest song since I felt I've gotten too many correct guesses already ^_°

   03.07.2001   

Ok, I'm back now. I suffered on a heavy data lost after a hdd crash but was luckily able recover everything important.
Updated weekly song guessing contest song. Also updated Koi ha Balance: Battle of Lovers set with a previously missing song. Btw AntiRes released a new version of SNESAPU.DLL quite some time ago, it offers better sample decompression and gaussian interpolation. Replace the old file with this one if you're not happy with the current sound quality.
