News Articles for this Hack

This patch hacks the Buzz & Waldog prototype so it no longer uses its unique mapper #156. Instead it uses mapper #118, which is a variation of mapper #4 the Nintendo MMC-3. The MMC-3 is the most common mapper making this hack ideal for building cartridges, using the PowerPAK, or just using an emulator that doesn’t support this game’s unique mapper. It was a quick hack and I have not fully tested it by playing through the entire game. But shouldn’t have any problems. Thanks to the NEStopia’s source code for mapper #156 register information.

If you want to build a cartridge you must use TKSROM or modify another MMC3 board that supports 128Kb PRGROM, 128Kb CHRROM, and 8Kb WRAM (aka PRGRAM). You must modify it to 1-screen mirroring.

For the PowerPAK or an emulator that doesn’t support the mapper #156 just patch and play. Some emulators might not recognize mapper #118 though but modern ones and the PowerPAK do recognize it.
