I think you can do well just cramming the lives count to the sides of the radar text, either with small icons or a number. Better to not compromise the playfield.

This is certainly possible, and it'd just be a matter of whether famitone supports these queues and playback commands. If it doesn't, adding them wouldn't necessarily be a difficult task for anyone familiar with famitone.

Probably both can be emulated without much trouble on an STM32, yes.

The 2A03 is an NMOS device, which will sink current driving the data lines low. When two NMOS devices face contention, typically the result looks like a logical AND, so in this case, selecting Bank $01 and writing to $1C00C (containing $02) could result in Bank 0 being the result. I expect a typical...

Give YY-CHR a try; you will be editing NES tiles directly.

Three versions of Street Fighter II were released for Super NES: Street Fighter II , with mirror matches accessible through a code Street Fighter II Turbo , with even greater speeds accessible through a code Super Street Fighter II , with a very minor Group Battle feature accessible through a code ...

I don't know the specs of what's needed, but I do have an entire extra power/reset button assembly that came out of a completely trashed NES.

A "brand new game" twist has at least fictional precedent. The finals of the Video Armageddon tournament in the film The Wizard used prerelease copies of Super Mario Bros. 3 . In real life, competitors would been following the game project on Savannah or GitHub or whatever. This isn't an ...

Oh, there's the other part that I couldn't find that runs directly off the battery voltage: the audio amplifier IC. As far as I can tell, the CPU should only need the 5V and 3V rails to be good (there's an LDO regulator deriving 3.3V from the 5V rail: U7/"RN5RT33A") The LCD should be the ...

You can test most of the game boy carefully using a 5V regulated power supply, and powering the 5V section manually (bypass the voltage regulator). I'm not sure if you'd hear sound in this case, but you'd at least be able to look for wiggling address lines on the cartridge connector.

This looks a lot like the Famicom Titler to me. Never mind, I'm a dolt and didn't read carefully. You're talking about the cartridge, not the system

Ms. Pac-Man is an interesting binary hack of Pac-Man. If you have burned Ms. Pac-Man (bootleg modified to run on straight Pac-Man PCB) and Pac-Man to two banks of an EPROM, and you bankswitch mid-game, it generally works fine and leads to some interesting effects.

To add to the Action 53 vol 3 entry, Karate Kick uses raw PCM for the yelling sound when a player dies.

Not to pop your bubble but you need to make some changes to that to make it work. Absolutely not popping any bubbles, that's the whole reason for me posting that screenshot, and people popping in and offering their input, you especially, is even more motivation to get this done. I'll make some of t...
