Tengen Ms. Pac-Man Fixed ROM
« on: February 01, 2018, 02:38:13 PM »
This is a fixed ROM for Tengen's version of Ms. Pac-Man for NES. In most emulators, this game features broken graphics, with the scoreboard and some other garbage being duplicated onto the maze. This even happens on some actual consoles, like the Retron 5. This was SUPER easy to fix - all I had to do was copy the game's data into another ROM - so I have no idea why so many versions of the game are completely broken. Download is attached below.

All you needed to do was change the Mirroring bit in the NES header from Vertical to Horizontal. It's quite a common problem with many ROM images from the internet. NES Cart Database is a good source for information on what the NES header should look like for any particular game.
