Send dead link reports, error corrections, or any files or links that should be here to Memblers.

If anyone out there is multi-lingual, and would translate any of these docs to any language, contact me.
Also, if there are any older docs on here that are known to be horribly inaccurate to the point of being useless, let me know so I can kill it.

Text files

Nes

General information about the Nintendo Entertainment System, or Famicom.

6502

Information about the 6502. The NES's 2A03 CPU is a modified 6502.

Famicom Disk System

Information about the Famicom's floppy disk add-on.

Etc.

Information about the NES/Famicom's add-ons, or anything that doesn't pertain to another category.

Emulation

Information related to the emulation of the NES/Famicom.

  • NES emulator development guide 4th release (4-23-2004), by Brad Taylor. Lots of information and techniques about emulating the NES.
  • Skate or Die 2 (title theme) Recorded by Memblers, through the audio output of an NES. This Rob Hubbard tune uses raw PCM output ($4011) that few (if any) emulators play correctly.
  • Comic Bakery Recorded by Chris Covell. This is an MP3 of how this cover of a Martin Galway song plays on a real NES (The one in the Stars SE demo). It doesn't sound too good, due to some scarcely documented um.. features of the NES's sound hardware. Since it does a great job of highlighting these features, it may be be useful for emulator authors who want to improve their sound emulation accuracy. This MP3 is in stereo, the square waves are in the left channel, the triangle is in the right one. The noise channel isn't used. If you're wondering, these features were compensated for in Bananmos's newest sound code (as used in Solar Wars), and it is now 100% cool on real NES. =)
  • UNIF File format specification An upcoming new format for NES roms.
  • iNES Header Format march 2000 by rvu.
  • iNES Header Format v2.0 by VmprHntrD.
  • NES Palette v1.1 by merp. NTSC and PAL versions converted from BMF's and Matrixz's NES palettes in photoshop, paint shop pro, and microsoft format.
  • NES palette generator 4-08-00 by Kevin Horton. Written in BASIC.
  • NES Palette by Matt Conte.
  • NES Palette by Loopy.
  • .STA format NESticle .43 save state format info. By goroh.

Dr. PC Jr.

The Doctor PC Jr. is a Chinese computer based off the NES/Famicom. Visit Dr. PC Jr. Development Page for extended information.

  • BIOS ROM A dump of the BIOS ROM from the Dr. PC Jr.
  • DOS disk The files from the OS disk of the Dr. PC Jr.
  • CATalogue v1.0 by Chris Covell. Uses the 'Cue-Cat'.
