You could use a PowerPak with a NES->FC converter, couldn't you? Unless there's some incompability that I'm unaware of.

Yes, neoflash is working on a programmable NES cart. I wouldn't hold my breath though, as they take forever to get anything finished (if they ever finish it).

I found the music in Metal Force pretty bland. Although I like track 6, and overall they did a good job with the drums.

Huh? We're talking about emulators on Gamecube and Wii here.

There was also the NES emulator on the GCN Zelda special edition disc that was hardcoded to only run mapper 1 games.

Nothing special about that. Either launch a separate emulator for each system, or build all of them into a multisystem emulator with a common frontend.

I don't think there are any mapper 0 games with no CHR-ROM. Set ineschr to 1 instead.

.org gives information to the assembler about how to resolve labels, and where in the ROM to place your code/data. PRG-ROM on the NES is mapped into the CPU's memory space starting at $8000.

.inesprg 1 ;//one PRG bank .ineschr 1 ;//one CHR bank .inesmir 0 ;//mirroring type 0 .inesmap 0 ;//memory mapper 0 (none) .org $A93F ; replace dashes with load address MINUS $80 .bank 0 .incbin "guitthing2.nsf" start: How large is your NSF? You've told NESASM that you only want one PRG ba...

NESASM automatically generates the header for you.

For example, these are the directives you'd use for a 40kB NROM:

.inesprg 2
.ineschr 1
.inesmir 1
.inesmap 0

Sure, an iNES file is just the ROM binary with a header prepended. So unless your assembler can generate the header automatically you'll have to slap one on yourself.

Unless there are different versions of the GG for PAL and NTSC.. But yeah, Galoob released the GG in europe as well and it worked just fine on a PAL NES. I probably still have mine in a box somewhere that I bought in 1992 or whenever it was.

I think a configuration manager would be kind of overkill for a project of this size. If any merging is needed, either let each developer merge before committing any changes, or let the lead developer handle it. And of course like blargg said, agree on a common toolset before getting started. For th...

Being a native speaker of a language doesn't really say anything about how good you are at reading/writing it (as has been proven countless times on internet forums).

Also, there is 3 "main" SNES emulators, and maybe a few "sub" SNES emulators, while there is at least 10 "main" NES emulators and about fifty "sub" emulators. (by "sub" I mean unfinished, uinccurate or unpopular). Because it's easier to write a NES ...
