You guys should just disband and not bother hosting NesDev anymore. There isn't really any point in trying to reverse-engineer the NES and Super Mario Bros. You ought to use your knowledge for something. All of this data about how the NES works amounts to nothing if it isn't put into use. "The ...

In reply to this post : In my opinion if NesDev wants to make a lot of progress or do something great they should band together their very best, most intelligent and active members into a team (of say about 10 individuals) and they should try to make a great platformer or action game like Contra, i...

If anyone has a copy and is too lazy to scan it online, I'll be happy to buy it from them (if you don't name too high of a price...) or borrow it from you (and pay for shipping, then send it back, after I scan it). Photocopies are good too, of course.

I'm not listening to teh naysayers here. Sorry.

What about these? They're pretty useful, aren't they? http://emu-docs.org/Genesis/sega2f.htm http://www.io.com/~nickb/atari/doc/stella.txt I think every little bit of information would help, even if some of it is restated. It would help, for instance, to sort out what is false in some documents out ...

In that Games Radar interview, Keiji Inafune says: "I particularly required meticulous and refined work skills from pixel graphic designers. The limited capabilities of the hardware of the time required pixel graphics to be simplest but refined at its maximum, and without this restriction, the ...

It really looks like an old NES Mega Man game. The design team will have to confirm how it was made, because of course they could have simply imitated the NES style very closely. But given that they are going back to the originals and at least one of the original designers is involved, it isn't a st...

NES development manual?

Does anyone have an official Nintendo Entertainment System development manual that they'd be willing to share to the NESdev community? I talked to someone at #nesdev who has a copy, but he wasn't willing to share. He said most of the information in it was already available at nesdev.com and that it ...
