This game is Mapper 1 and randomly decides for itself if it is going to get past the start menu or not.
Most of the time it gets to in-game on a zoomed in on the right hand side of the first level screen (See Superman (Mapper 1) Jnes FCEUX) or a garbled looking screen (See Superman (Mapper 1) Jnes 1). Sometimes you are lucky and it seems to work just fine until you use Super Flight and after a few flights it then gets messed up (See Superman (Mapper 1) Jnes 2)
