Some people say that everything is better when it's French, such as a French Toast.
I say that anything is even better when it's with Samba.
Super Mario Bros. 2 (TONY-I)
Here is yet another cartridge conversion of the Japanese FDS game Super Mario Bros. 2, also known as The Lost Levels. This one came on a large printed circuit board that has the ID "TONY-I" written on it in silkscreen. It runs as mapper #43, which FCEUX' source code calls "YS-612", a hack of "TONY-I" that is part of the GoodNES 3.23b set under the incorrect "Super Mario Bros. 2 (J) (LF36) [p1]". As for the quality of this conversion, it is similar to YUNG-08, which we released earlier this year, and its descendants "Mr. Mary 2" and "N-32" ("Romeo game"): No unique jumping physics when selecting Luigi, green slow-moving plants instead of the correct red fast-moving plants in worlds 4 and above, and a somewhat broken ending with incorrect music and Princess Peach being displayed as a chest. The cartridge is recognisable from all the other ports for having a larger than usual cover.
Hot Dance with Samba
This Dance Pad cartridge includes the usual songs you know from similar cartridges, but has two additional features: first, a collection of 23 NROM games hacked by Inventor, and second, a "Samba Mode" in which the A and B buttons must be used as well, increasing the difficulty. This cartridge was released by a Taiwanese company that stole the Tiger Electronics old logo. They were active way back and distributed BIC cartridge, they're apparently still a thing since their logo appeared on some recent portable plug and play boxes.
160-in-1
(FK-021) 180-in-1
(FK-022) 178-in-1
More members of the three-digit FK-xxx series, each containing a small selection of CNROM or NROM games. The 160-in-1 had an incorrect cartridge label attached to it --- 80-in-1, a game count that was not reachable with any DIP switch setting, and showing games that were not on that cartridge at all, so its actual ID is not known. Some DIP switch settings provide a "Sonic" game that has its mirroring bit set incorrectly.
