The SuperFX improvements remove the flicker in Star Fox 2. Users have experienced random crashes and stuff though, so the SuperFX chip still needs a lot of work. Pagefault is in need of some hardware to aid him in fixing the chips for good - if you are in the position to help him out, the thread is here.
