 |
|
So I end up with this GBA ROM that says it's Harvest Moon Friends of Mineral Town. Upon booting it up, it's a (Korean?) pirate with said game on it (I think I didn't play it much) and about 120 other games. All of which are NES. And a lot of which are hacks and/or Pirate originals.
Some of the pirates are easy to identify, like Pockeman Silver is a sprite hack of Little Nemo. Some of the others (especially the Pockeman games) I can't seem to figure out. So I was hoping some of you might be more adept at this sort of thing.
Also neat, an old Spooky Kids hack is on here. Can you find it?

| While trying to mash the damn thing into letting me get past the title screen on the first Pockemon game, I somehow pulled up a menu for something called PocketNES. Does this mean it's basically a ROM of an emulator package? That's kinda trippy. |

It's open source, so Hudson Soft, Jaleco, and pirates alike have been having a field day using it for GBA compilations of NES games. |

| Out of curiousity, has any kind of pirate/unlicensed scene dealing with titles that aren't 100-in-1s appeared, or is it still too expensive/too risky for such? The GBA was fairly dear to me, and I'd love to experience new yet terrible content. |

as far as I'm aware, that sort of thing pretty much died with the GBC. I once saw a GBA game in Turkey called "Star War 3" which is apparently an original game, but it's just a space invaders clone... and that's about it. |
