He had said he was inspired by that game. He is working on a new project now. You should check out his Youtube channel for periodic updates.

And $29 is not expensive at all. Heck just seeing all the work that went into making the Teletime carts, I'm majorly impressed with the price.

Well, this is a brand new game, where many, many hours of real development time went into it (probably far more than shit you see on stuff like iPhones and other mobile devices) since it has to be coded in pure assembler on a CPU that has a 1.79 MHz clock rate.. plus materials to create the circuit board, plastic casing and manuals. It really isn't the same as making an app that makes a fart sound effect that you can sell for 99¢.

It's nice to see concerted homebrew gaming efforts, and this is pretty slick for a one-man production. I was following this on the NESDEV forums for a while, totally cool to see he got it all wrapped up and distributed.

Yes, it does. Europe has PAL-A and PAL-B NES systems, not sure the specifics but I think it's a regional (or publisher) thing.

Asian and Hong Kong NES systems are PAL.

A little research goes a long way.

The graphics are in no way hot, still.

Compared to what, exactly? The graphics are on par with some commercially released NES games and many of them had large teams of developers and artists. The graphics are fine on their own and outstanding considering the game's graphics and development were handled by one guy. It's rather unrealistic to compare a one-man homebrew game to say, Mega Man 6.
