SpongeBob SquarePants: SuperSponge (NTSC-U / PAL)

[mailcty]

Issue:
Broken sprites appear on various cutscenes & stages, and loading saves from memory card does not work

Reproduce:
For sprites issue - Play the game as normal, examples shown in screenshots are respectively the intro cutscene and Sandy's Tree Dome (stage 2)
For memory card saves issue - Start Game and create a file, save on the world map, then restart to recheck the Start Game screen; you can alternatively try loading this completed save for the NTSC-U version

Workaround:
N/A for fixing sprites, but using save states for saving progress instead?

BIOS:
SCPH-101/102 (both v4.5)

CD Images:
Redump bin/cues
