Re: External audio on Toploader NES with PowerPak mod
Ya, I'm not getting expansion audio, I can hear the regular 2A03 audio just fine. Any ideas how to enable it using a 72->60 pin converter with the av famicom?

Re: Good Entry-Level SMD Rework Station?
Hakko 888D. Bought one a few months ago, awesome investment and not overly expensive. Quality product.

Re: External audio on Toploader NES with PowerPak mod
I may give this a try soon then, I need to double check whether I'm even getting expansion audio at all with my av famicom with the powerpak first.

Re: External audio on Toploader NES with PowerPak mod
Alright, well hopefully that is one less thing for me to do as well. Not sure exactly what would be considered 'large' for the capacitor for this job though, the largest I have on hand is a 470uF.

Re: Selling a PowerPak?
Only advantage I can think of is auto SRAM saving rather than holding the reset. I wouldn't expect krikkz to expand the mapper support much, seems to be a few issues with games that don't work correctly even on mappers listed as working. Although, to give it the benefit of the doubt it hasn't been o...

Re: External audio on Toploader NES with PowerPak mod
Well I was going to ask the same thing. I have a NES->Fami converter that I got from V666, and what happens with the powerpak is really weird. When I use a game or NSF which have external audio, the external audio works, but all the 2A03 channels are silenced ! Or at least they're so quiet it's har...

Re: External audio on Toploader NES with PowerPak mod
Anyone know how to get this to work using an AV famicom and the powerpak? I already added the wire on the powerpak and it works great for my US top loader. I have a 72 pin to 60 pin converter and not sure what to wire up to get this to work so the powerpak has expansion audio when using my AV famico...

Re: Are there any Playchoice/Vs. conversions to NES availabl
Found these by a member here; http://nes.goondocks.se/patches.php Unfortunately he provides no CRC's of the roms he used to apply the patches and uses .ips which has no method of verifying the rom. Every rom I've tried has failed, tried the VS dump, the mame dump, and even the regular nes rom. Also ...

Re: Are there any Playchoice/Vs. conversions to NES availabl
Cool, got it. There's actually one extra 8KB file that was in the mame rom set, not quite sure what it contains, perhaps it's still part of the CHR but seperate because it's larger than 128KB so they split it to a separate file. Not really sure what the guys in MAME do. Either way, it needed to be a...

Re: Are there any Playchoice/Vs. conversions to NES availabl
Interesting.
Are there any guides to converting playchoice split roms from the MAME set to a .NES image?
I just tried my hand at it by merging the PRG and CHR and adding a nes header but it did not work correctly:

Re: PAL SNES Pro Action Replay NTSC SNES
The Game Genie I've read later had a version that included the "extra pins" so it would work with games that required them. The Pro Action Replay only has the extra pins I believe on the final MK3 version. I know for sure the MK3 has it, but I'm only reasonably sure the MK2 doesn't. I thi...

Are there any Playchoice/Vs. conversions to NES available?
I've seen quite a few projects on this board of people converting the arcade roms to actual carts, and reproductions being made but is there a site anywhere that has conversions done and can be run on emulator or powerpak? Such as a site that has IPS patches for Vs/Playchoice games so that they will...

Re: PAL SNES Pro Action Replay NTSC SNES
Do the pro action replays have the extra pins on the cartridge connector that co-processor SNES carts have? I know for certain the game genie doesn't and it's why the game genie does not work with co-processor games.
