Super Boomer Mod update: Decided for one of the units I am going to strip out all the guts and add a set of 2 RCA jacks, 1/4" (guitar size) jacks, ordinary headphone jack and maybe some others if I think it would be a good idea.
If anyone is interested in buying one of these once I have modded them feel free to PM me!
!!!!NEW PROJECT!!!!
Got enough parts in today to start on my new project! This one I am extremely excited to start work on, should be alot of fun! Before I tell you all what it is have a look at the picture bellow and you will probably be able to guess what I am doing almost instantly...
Just incase you could not tell I am going to be making some Custom NES Cartridges, These cartridges will probably be host to glitchNES and maybe some other no-carrier/visual software.
Ok now lets talk about the donor boards, all of them are NROM cartridges and are either 128 or 256 boards (you can find out which games are NROM and wether they are 128 or 256 here http://www.thenesdump.com/Mappers/NROM.htm). They are all PAL A region.
I will be using 27c256 EPROM's to replace the CHR and PRG eproms.
For now all I can do is desolder the already existing ROM's on the board, and fit in a socket so I can easiy swap out different EPROM's, I will use this as my "test" cartridge for when I burn EPROM's with information and need to make sure that everything works before I solder them into another cartridge. I should be getting some Sockets in the mail tomorrow aswell as another NES console so work should be picking up quickly.
I should in the week be getting in the mail around 15 NROM cartridges and 30 EPROM's so I have alot of parts to spare around incase people would like me to produce them some cartridges (again, PM me and let me know what you need).
ahhh so excited for this project!
Questions/Comments welcome
