Hi everyone!
Great to see so many guys still into the 8bit crazyness :-)
Me personally, i am one of those techs who still enjoys to play these as well.
I am a tech so soldering/desoldering is a breeze for me, i ordered a eeprom programmer and eraser and i am anxious to get started on kid Dracula.
@Cheesmeister: That's understood! From now on i will refer to the japanese carts as JP, i have nothing but respect for the japanese no worries :-)
@Mr Pete, you seems to say it is do-able, then i want to get into it, for me , its important to keep the original JP cart for the translation, so , you are saying there is no need to rewire for the JP cart edition of Kid dracula then?
that sounds like great news to me.
if found this translation on romhacking.net:
http://www.romhacking.net/transla...
its an english translation patch that downloads as an "IPS file".
I am trying to piece together what i need to do this, so far i found some info like this:
slot: vrc4
pcb: KONAMI-VRC-4
vrc4-pin3: PRG A3
vrc4-pin4: PRG A2
I assume if i take that IPS file into the program FAMIROM it will split it into CHR and PRG ?
But i seems to need the ROM file of the game to apply this to right?
I feel i still need to read-up a lot on this
