For PRG, it has two 8k switchable banks at the beginning, and a fixed 16k bank at the end.
For CHR, it has two 2k CHR banks, and four 1k CHR banks.
Cool, thanks for informing me, that makes sense.

There are no US cartages that use mapper 33. It is a Japan-only mapper used exclusively by Taito games NESCartDB Reference for Mapper 33 . Licensed US games were mostly restricted to using official Nintendo mappers and boards, like NROM, A*ROM, U*ROM, MMC1, MMC3 and MMC5. To "port" a game...

MMC3 Port, What would that involve exactly? Also is there any cartridges that use that mapper 33 that can be reprogramed?

You are speaking of Hong Kong correct? Yes. No wonder many pirate hacks and original unlicensed games (especially those sold in physical form) released these days are nicked HKO, even though the majority of them aren't even developed here. :roll: Hahah, that is something else. If I ever made it to ...

Do you know of a resource I can read up on which you have mentioned of heavy changes? I know this wont happen right away but I am interested in doing what I can over time. If someone e...

Pirate carts are VERY easily found here, especially because of the explosion of the Famiclones in recent years (especially since the NES failed hard to the almighty Famicom here getting Famicom stuff is very natural), so it is no surprise to me. You are speaking of Hong Kong correct? I definetly wo...

Definetly a pirate...Though i never ran into another one of these ones again but its probably cuz I am in the wrong country for easy finds of pirates. Know anywhere i can find some good pir...

Nintendo it's for breakfast now!

It was a cereal wow! Just was kinda curious who had this in the past. I think when I was younger I was mostly into it because I loved Nintendo.

:shock: sugar & milk

Check out the old comercial, I remembered part of this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VF_9vxmCVVk
