I know the sets are marked "machine not working", but there are pictures of gameplay at Progetto Emma. The games must have been playable for those snaps to have been taken. When I run the sets in MAME 178, I just get unreadable menu screens.

I don't have MAME (and Famicom set softlist) at the moment, however the "unreadable menu screens" are probably telling you to switch the diskette's side. Famicom diskettes are double sided.
EDIT: Wait, Super Famicom Box? I had a brain fart. I though you were referring to Famicom Disk System. I'll take a look when I get the chance.

I seem to recall that Kale had been making changes to how the video overlay chip is emulated, which handles the menu text. It could be that his changes broke it, or it simply has become broken over time due to not many people looking at it. Can you provide a screenshot? A picture is worth a thousand words. Just press F12 and boom, a PNG arrives in your snaps folder. Register and upload it to Imgur, which allows hotlinking and is minimally invasive.

I have tried MAME 178, and 148, and I can't leave the attached screen no matter what button I press. The screen is the same for all of the Super Famicom Box sets, including running the bios alone.
