I'm not really testing stuff as much as I'm trying to observe behavior.Zepper wrote:I mean... in easy words... you write a test rom... and someone would run it in a NES.
PowerPak is no good for testing anything mapper related -- or anything cartridge side (since it is also just an emulator) -- nor is it good for testing power-on state (since the PowerPak has to run its own code before it passes control to your ROM)I don't know a thing about the accuracy level when using a PowerPak-like device, instead of a SMB-for-tests cartridge set.
But for testing any other core NES functionality, it should be fine.
