Famicom expansion port controllers support

This repo contains patches to add Famicom Expansion port controllers compatibility.

https://github.com/darthcloud/famicom-exp-patches

These patches are for headered iNES ROM.

Support for internal controllers is maintained in most case.

Games that loose internal controllers support

  • Battletoads
  • Snake Rattle n Roll
  • Terminator 2

The original poll function is quite optimized already and the bank in which the poll function is located do not have obvious empty space to allow relocation/split of the poll function.

Alternation version w/ FC exp support

Some version of those games do support controller on the Famicom expansion port:

  • Link no Bouken - The Legend of Zelda 2 (Japan) (FDS)
  • Paperboy (Japan) (FC)
  • Pinball (Japan) (FDS)
  • Pinball (Europe) (NES)
  • RoboCop 2 (Japan) (FC)
  • Star Force (Japan) (FC)
  • Terminator 2 (Japan) (FC)
  • Yume Koujou - Doki Doki Panic (Japan) (FDS)

awesome

This is truly amazing! I bought a Famicom with the RGB Lava 2.0 system and started using the 15-pin port to use controllers with turbo buttons, but I noticed it didn't work in some games. This is great work! Games like Robocop and Terminator are essential, and many more too. You guys are geniuses! Thank you so much!
