Spring is here, and no, I don't mean that flowers are blooming but dumps definitely are??
Super Mario 15
For years, we had all the Mario hacks dumped and available on the net. Yet, the fifteenth was missing. Its existence was rumored, one sole site claimed it was Doki Doki Yuenchi, yet never provided any backing proof. Beside, I had seen the exact same cartridge on auction recently, it was just the Tiny Toon 2 Mario 14 one, title screen unchanged. The question remained however, was it just a number the Taiwanese companies omitted? They had a head-on crash with the two different Mario 14 games released at the same time. Both may have thought that skipping a number was a fair plan?
Well, one company definitely either noticed this number was lacking or recycled one of the Mario 14 hack to differentiate it from the other Mario 14. And here we have it. Super Mario 15, a hack of Super Mario 14 based on Kaiketsu Yanchamaru 3. Copyright was changed to read "©1993 Mario" rather than "Wario". The details, you know.
Special thanks to mt777 for lending his cartridge.
Gameinis Boxing+Soccer
Two newly developed games for some manufacturer named Gameinis, that apparently produced numerous (educational?) famiclone in the 2000s. Soccer was already available with some DDR clone but not Boxing. All the Gameinis games uses an infrared sensor to detect the player's input. This is emulated by left-clicking with your mouse. Gameinis' Ping Pong is also provided, properly headered, so you can try this gameplay eccentricity.
Waixing Megapad
Nintendo did the NES Classic Mini. Waixing had the Megapad, a console comprising of a good chunk of their all-time classic. Right??
…Are those seagulls from the Unchained Melody multicarts?!
Wik!d Joystick 14-in-1
Continuing the UM6578 commando operation, here's another one with obscure origins. Shenzhen Nanjing sound driver, strongly inspired by some Jungletac games… What we know however is that it was manufactured by ABL. I'll stop there otherwise the melting pot will get too large. Here's some captures of the games so you get a taste of its delicious content. The extracted games are provided too!
Cartridge Story I, II
Everyone have stumbled at some point on the infamous 260-in-1 (and variants) while visiting the abyss of Famicom piracy. Most people ignore the existence of the predecessor multicart line from RCM Group however: the Cartridge Story cartridges. First discovered with the last and most complete entry of the series previously dumped by CaH4e3, we intend here to close the book regarding this multicart by providing the remaining dumps of the first and second volume. The first contains no exclusive Hwang Shinwei minigames, the second has a few like Sky Shot. Only the third entry has Face Tetris and the likes. The archive contains all three instance of the Cartridge Story.
Fighting Hero
On the first glimpse, you must be wondering why you're seeing a capture of Fighting Hero, one of the most common NTDEC game on this blog? Because we've just dumped the original print of the game. And what's up with this specific version? Literally nothing beside a really unfortunate typo in the company name: Maga Soft instead of Mega Soft. The same error was made in the credits screen.
But wait, we're not done! Krzysiobal also found by accident another version of the game that changed the way the game read the player's inputs. Rather than acting when the buttons are released, a wise change was made: the game will now react when the button are pressed. That's how the game should have operated since the beginning…
The archive contains the three revision of the ROM so one can investigate all the difference and claim proudly and loudly on forums "I own all three ROMs of Fighting Hero"!
101 Games
Generic recent multicart that tries to look like the old Tsang Hai ones. It is a variant of a multicart previously dumped by CaH4e3 in 2016.
76-in-1 D-2003 Super (329-JY818)
76-in-1 D-2003 Super (329-JY819)
Two nearly identical multicart from 1999 or so, when J.Y. was moving away from cartridges operating on their ASIC, to cheaper solutions. These cartridge have various DIP settings which will change the number of games displayed. But both are still not so interesting 19-in-1…
76-in-1 D-2003 Super (JY805)
金色比卡丘口袋怪獸 130-in-1 (JY-130)
Two multicarts from 2003 or so, by either what remained of J.Y. at this time or a completly unrelated business.
Lastly we have a few J.Y. cartridges. Two with a nice menu, the rest reset based.
1995 Super HiK 4-in-1 新系列恐龍戰隊組合卡 (JY-020)
1998 Super HiK 8-in-1 (JY-021 B)
