Re: Cartridge ROM mapping
I can sort of understand that going from one bank of 16k to 2 banks of 16k could cause some issues but why would a 6k game like planet defender need to have the first 4k swapped with the second 2k (with extra padding) to make it work as an 8k rom? That's because in the original cartridge there was ...

Re: Hello From Canada
Great video by the way! Comment to the video Yes, the only official NTSC CreatiVision was released in Japan, however recently a proper boxed, packaged and complete US NTSC console was spotted. Probably an early attempt to hit the US market, however it was definitely not a prototype (like the Brazill...
