So recently there was discussion about whether or not one of byuu’s datapak dumps for Satellaview held up to scrutiny. Since I happened to pick up the exact same game while recently in Japan — because it looked cool, not because I thought it needed redumping — I thought why… Read more »
I just put up a more readable MMM01 documentation on my wiki, check it out. While I implemented the mapper already in MESS, I found some small issues with it that I’ll send a pull request over soon. If you have any idea what the unknown bit might be there… Read more »
So I just had a friend of a friend find Shin Megami Tensei – Devil Children: Aka no Sho Rev A in Japan. Upon analyzing the changes made and compared them to the following game in the series, Shiro no Sho, it’s kind of safe to say that there is… Read more »
Hey, so a lot has happened recently. First off, I moved cities for a new job and that’s why my coverage has been spotty to say the least. Unfortunately, I’ll only really get settled November-ish, maybe a bit sooner. What did I do since February you ask? Well, I looked… Read more »
So I recently acquired more Sachen games, among them are 31B-001 (Taiwanese version), 16B-002 (2x 8B with switch), the elusive 6B-001, which I guess is now confirmed to exist and an unknown 16B variant featuring the Mahjong titles and a wide selection of other titles, meaning it’s not just two… Read more »
So I tried to evoke a response of my comatose Pokémon Mini again, but nothing on the supposed CN3-23 (#RD?) or CN3-29 (FR?) lines. Pictures of the patient on the left. As I said above, CN3-23 wouldn’t budge, CN3-29 stays low the whole time. I get the feeling that maybe… Read more »
So I broke my Pokémon Mini (MIN) trying to solder some wire-wrap onto the LCD connector. Wire-wrap was of course as big as each pin and pitch was only 0.5mm, so yeah… That didn’t work out. I was going to check out the display signals while actually seeing the display… Read more »
Just wanted to let everybody know that finally, all Sachen 4 in 1 Mono games were dumped and put into DoM by yours truly. I would like to point out that taizou and BigFred lent a hand in letting me borrow their games.
So I noticed I neglected to update DoM with the mono 4B games I had already dumped. I did so now. All redumps are in as well as new entries for 4B-001, 4B-004, 4B-006, 4B-008. I updated the last Sachen post as well. Maybe a bit more info on color… Read more »
So I received more Sachen carts in the mail today and finally confirmed that Sachen’s MMC1 also has 8 high address lines, as could be guessed from the zero-adjustment being performed on all 8 data bits. Probably now going to change the dumper to read RB 0x00 from 0x4000-0x7FFF by… Read more »
