GBS Request

That's why there is no custom memory mapping on the SNES and all games follows Nintendo standards, or used Nintendo made special chips, right ?

Also, Ninendo didn't controlled all Game Pack manufacturing on the Famicom, but they did on the NES in america and in europe, right ?
So that's why all cartridges are gray (unlike FC cartridges wich all have fun colors) and why nearly all custom chips FC games were either unreleased outside of Japan, or seriously modified (CV3), right ?

On NES, not completely. After seeing lots of opened carts I noticed at least Acclaim and Konami used their own PCBs sometimes. And MaskROMs. The Acclaim ones didn't have solder-mask, which would make them a tiny bit cheaper to make. I would assume it follows that companies could put whatever chips they wanted on there. Maybe it was cheaper for Konami to use Nintendo's boards with MMC5 instead of their own VRC6, or something. But they always need Nintendo's cases and lockout chips.

Didn't Sunsoft or someone make NES carts using the custom mapper from their Famicom carts? Just ignoring the sound part of course.

All my Konami cards use regular boards, and I think the particular boards are found only in american version (I'm unusre tough).
Batman - Return of the Jocker has a special chip in it, including the american version. The first Batman game has been ported to the MMC3 with a few alterations in music to be ported in the america and europe.

I seem to remember reading that Acclaim and Konami were allowed to make their own boards at some point due to 1. the so-called ROM shortage and 2. their support for NES even after the launch of the Sega Genesis.

On the off chance that someone with GBS knowledge is paying attention to this thread and not the NSF request thread: both Link's Awakening files (regular and DX) are missing the ending/staff roll. My guess is that the song is stored in some odd place in the ROM, seperate from everything else, and that's why it hasn't been added yet. It would be much appreciated by myself and anyone else who's hear the GBS for that track to finally be added, if possible. Thank you.

Zelda DX Ending Theme:
Track 61, 20 seconds in.

Heh, yep, a few GBS tracks have an unreasonable amount of silence at the beginning. Metroid II's ending theme is like this too (or maybe the next-to-last track). I have Game Music Box skip up to 20 seconds of silence at the beginning of a track before starting playback.

Maybe someone can fix the few tracks that are like this?

UGEtab did that one, but it doesn't work right.

I updated the Zelda DX GBS so that instead of 22 seconds of silence on the Credits track, it's only 3 seconds of silence.

Stargate

Stargate? I didn't know Defender 2 was ported to GBC. I thought only the first Defender got ported.
