It would be sad if homebrew developers cannot at least share information about chilling effects of overreaching companies. The next game that gets targeted may be less similar. It may be your next game. It may be mine.

Similarity is not infringement. AtariAge was careful not to directly reference Nintendos IP in code, assets or packaging.

This effects homebrew developers regardless of platform so I thought I'd post my thoughts on this. AtariAge and homebrew developer nicknamed Sprybug produced a wonderful homage to Super Maro Brothers called Princess Rescue. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73TcDWQDFMk Recently it was yanked from their...

Sorry for being a little off topic. Actually, the SNES Hi/Lo-ROM reproduction flash boards from infinitelives can go up to 128mbit so it's nearly there

Is there a way to see at runtime if a genuine infinitelives repro board is in use?

Anything totaling to atleast 128Mbit that places the rom image in all the right spots should be capable of working. 3x32Mb, 1x64Mb + 1x32Mb, 6x16Mb, 1x128Mb with wasted space, it's all the same in the eyes of the SNES if its all decoded properly with the expected data. So, there isn't a billion &qu...

Are you referring to a specific post of me or is this just a general suggestion? I guess I will have a look, but in the moment, I'm still learning the basics of NES programming. I won't start developing an actual game until I understand every single line in my sample code. So, yes, I might actually...

I don't know if the O.P. knows, but, there is a fairly robust IDE called NESICIDE that needs active use and feedback

I noticed the pixel2.nes binary in this topic. Is that converted from Familiy BASIC to NES binary via SSTONES in this topic?
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10163

Any chance of seeing this as a PSP version via popstation? Or, is there some legal reason that prevents it?

I hate to bump my post but does my link to the test ROM work?

I'd hate for my file to be as dead as the rest of the links I just mentioned

As of this post the download tool from the original post and the download from AnnaWu are down.

Thanks infinitelives! Here is one of the converted examples that came with SSTONES http://sdrv.ms/17KfJJE (sstontst.zip) @tepples I forgot about that. That would make the games created personal use only. I could only distribute the source, then. I assume they imagined kids sharing tapes with the gam...

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, I can't leave it without as the main thrust is to take a Famicom BASIC game and put it on a real cart. In this case I need what parameters infinitelives requiress to get my cart order correct. Once we figure this out then homebrew made by BASIC enthusiasts becomes...

It looks like the translation is offline (along with most links on this page). I'd like to start using the FamilyBasicEditor + SSTONES and infinitelives eeprom board. Can anyone confirm what kind of board I need for the result of that? It seems (from what I've read) that Famicom BASIC itself is only...

The $200 price is a little worrying. Is the classic gaming infrastructure that much worse in Japan? I thought we were on the brink of relatively inexpensive flash based boards for homebrewers.

The last commit he made was from June 24, 2013 so it may not be dead. That said, the author hasn't posted here in quite awhile. No one really figured out how to install and get this working correctly either.
