FDS, PC10?

Now that would have been awesome!

Oh how I wish the FDS came to the US, it would have been called the NDS (Nintendo Disk System, not Nintendo DS).

You could put your Famicom Disk in the PC10, and either play it or rewrite a new game.

You know,
I was looking for a NesDev board for a while, I don't know why it was so hard to find this place.

I guess its not advertised like the IGN boards, that's probably A Good Thing (tm), to keep the stupidity down.

Its just dirty. Buy a can of QD Electrical Cleaner from the hardware store. Spray the edge connectors of the games, and quickly wipe with a cotton rag. Then spray the inside of the NES (connector), and put a game in there and move it around as best you can. This stuff is non-conductive, so you can s...

Haha, doubt they care. They are probably only interested in big "romz sitez".
Besides I got the file you can take it down, and I'll find a place to host it (preferably in china).

Thanks again.

Dissasembled commercial games? (with comments?)

Has anyone disassembled and commented any commercial NES games? Like Super Mario Bros for instance? (or any other small NROM games?)

I would love to see some of the stuff they were doing. I would imagine most of the PRG rom image contains level data? How much of it is acutally code?

Copying a chunk of memory on the 6502

Ok, so this is a relatively simple operation. I'm new to 6502 machine (or for that matter machine code in general), so take it easy. I'm trying to copy a chunk of memory (8192 bytes to be exact), here is my code: lda #$00 ;set our source memory address to copy from, $8000 sta $FB lda #$80 sta $FC ld...

NES No Lockout Chip Mod (it died, so I got rid of it)

I had done the disable lockout chip mod before (cut pin 4 off), and after some time, the lockout chip ceased to function. It just died, and no longer worked. I didn't want to bother desoldering one from another NES cart, etc. So here is what I did. 1) Removed the stupid thing. 2) Cut trace on the Po...

Get them from ebay! (I never pay more than a few bucks a piece) You know, you can use NTSC carts, you just have to swap the lockout chip with a PAL one. Or, I believe you can just cut off pin 4 of the lockout chip inside the NES, I know it works for NTSC board, not certain of PAL, anyone? As far as ...

NROM or CNROM shouldn't require changing any pins in the socket. You should just be able to solder in 27C256 or 27C64 EPROMs and they should work.

Will program EPROMs as service to NESDEV community

I will program EPROMs (for free) for people who want to make their own NES carts to run their OWN programs, as a service to the NESDEV community. This is for homebrew code ONLY. DO NOT waste my time asking me to program hacked games or commercial games. You may supply your own EPROMs, or you can buy...

I'd definalty be interested in the schematic and binaries (or source if possible).

I'd be interested in adding/expanding CopyNES for sure. I just need something to get me started.
