I wanted to ask a question that has been bothering me for a long time. Are there normal (non-pirated) conversions of "Super Game" games on MMC3 that have copy protection removed or disabled? How many such conversions are available?
Leaked betas, though those count as "pirated" as well. Distributing normal non-protected versions would defeat the purpose of having copy protection.

Here are the patched files.

Why do both patches have the same CRC32 despite having vastly different sizes?

Contrary to what you write, the patching utility demands the original Panda Prince ROM file, not my MMC3 conversion, as you said, with a NES 1.0 header. I don't like the .BPS format at all because it does not verify the file body separately from the header, and because the "Beat" client has a very awkward user interface in Windows.

Here are some proper extracts. I also made a version of Saint Seiya for regular consoles, without expansion audio obviously. The other two games already exist in regular console form and so need no such conversion.

The ROM is correctly dumped; all games run in compatible emulators with no visible glitches. Thank you very much. :) To answer your questions:
  • FCEUX has very little support for bootleg mappers. Use Libretro-FCEUMM for Retroarch on many platforms or NintendulatorNRS for Windows for complete mapper support.
  • I assume it writes mapper number 33 instead of 289. That is likely because Sanni's software does not write a proper NES 2.0 header, so it writes mapper number 289 but fails to set the NES 2.0 flag, resulting in mapper number 289-256=33.
  • To check whether a cartridge has been correctly dumped, repeat the dumping procedure several times, removing and reattaching the cartridge to the dumper between each attempt, and ensure that the hash value of the dumped data remains constant between attempts. And if the cartridge uses a known mapper, ensure that all games run in emulators without visible glitches.

That's mapper 289. The current version of the Sanni Cart reader supports it. Going by mapper 289's capabilities, size should be 2048 KiB PRG-ROM and 0 KiB CHR-ROM.

Dump as NROM please and post it, so one can analyze the dump to determine the mapper. Glob-top PCB pictures alone won't tell us much, unfortunately.

Excellent! Thank you. I have updated my emulator build to support expansion audio using the correct, attached dump. I have also attached a video file for demonstration purposes.

You cannot upload any attachments here? You have uploaded several attachments to your posts in this thread already. These attachments were far larger than any NES .ROM file. Something is not right here.

I don't have a PRG-ROM CRC32 F0C73FA7, either, so it would be useful, so please post it. :)
This is possibly a bootleg from 振华.

Because the code that writes to the ADPCM chip has been NOP'ed out and cannot function. It has been NOP'ed out because the game would otherwise not run in emulators, because it would have waited for the ADPCM chip's "READY" signal. And with all due respect, but tpu is known for modifying dumps, including leaving his signature in the PRG-ROM data of other games. (The attached example, 爆笑三國 - Jacks in Tri-Empire, was hacked from its original mapper 227 to mapper 15 by him, as well. We still don't have an actual mapper 227 dump of that game, either. :( )

I have already emulated it in NintendulatorNRS, but the common dump (PRG-ROM CRC32 191F7D5E) is hacked and no longer has working ADPCM sound, so I need an unhacked dump to verify and possibly correct my emulation. Please post one if you can.

Here are the mssing games with the volume button JSR removed. In these cases, no footer was used, as the JSR $6100 was added at the end of the NMI handler. In such cases, I just replace the 20 00 61 with a 2C 00 61 (JSR $6100 becomes BIT $6100).

That's nice, but nobody here can download anything from nesbbs.com's bbs.
