What's the benefits of sum16 ? That is the method Nintendo used to verify the file integrity of ROMs at its factory and included the sum16 values in its spreadsheet inventorying the Famicom and NES ROMs going through its assembly line. This spreadsheet does not include Japanese games from third par...

These days Nintendo will patch out things like strobing effects on the Switch emulations of these games on the fly, they no longer modify ROMs or FDS/QD images, which is a good thing. Of course, try telling those know-nothings at No-intro that.

At least they have included through holes so the end user can "fix" the issue with their own flash chip or EEPROM.

It's there any tool or script to add\updated headers to nes roms in batch mode based in this xml file?

Get the python script linked here and you should be satisfied :

Some of these issues I have concerns or questions about : Bus conflicts don't work, anything relating to the hardware relying on it just doesn't function correctly. They can work and do work for Cybernoid or are at least avoided on the N8 Pro for that game. On the N8 the bus conflict in that game le...

After reviewing all the evidence, I am firmly convinced that the behavior in The Jetsons (Japan) as is currently produced by almost every emulator, is incorrect. Everyone agrees that the MMC3 and the Taito TC0690's IRQ counters operate very similarly. The chief differences between them is that the l...

They are known, and a few of those are bad dumps : Ganbare Goemon! - Karakuri Douchuu, Ganbare Goemon Gaiden - Kieta Ougon Kiseru, Gimmick!, Street Gangs. I'd inform No-intro, but I might as well inform just shout the information out to an empty field for all the good that it will do.

I was having a hard time finding copies of The Jetsons on eBay, then two popped up for sale. At first, I thought the cartridge shell was suspicious because it used a unique rounded-top cartridge I had never seen before with a Taito NES game. However, Bubble Bobble 2 and Captain Saver also use this c...

The Game Boy Color game Mission Impossible allowed you to make the IR transmitter/receiver function as a remote. What you do is you select the "Agent Organizer" option from the Main Menu and go into "Remote Control" Select one of the four icons and you will see an option to "Learn Signals" and an op...

I wonder how the Graffiti-like interface works? Nothing else looked too unusual. There are two ways to "free-form" draw on the Titler. The first is when you are using Famicom games, the stylus pad and the buttons on the side are the only ways to "interact" (if you can call it that) with the Famicom...

Still my microphone doesn't work with some games like Paluthena. Maybe it's just an extra tricky game to get working though.

Are you sure you're doing it right? You must hold down the A button on controller 2 as you blow (hard) into the microphone to get the haggling to activate.

For your own information, I applied the 2020-04-22 xml to a 2020-04-22 no-intro set using the python script, and I've recorded the names of the unmatched entries in a text file. In addition to those, "Bible Adventures (USA) (v1.5) (Unl)" wasn't in the xml. Hope this helps. https://telegra.ph/nes20d...

I now defer to this database, FWIW.
