!Arcade! is this possible?

Ray, is it possible to burn Ironclad to Homecarts. I know I'm not the only one who would like to see a NGH Ironclad. And if anyone can do it, it's you guys. So can it be done?

I'm sure that there was an Ironclad MVS (maybe). So, it's theoretically correct that they could do a homecart of Ironclad. I'm not Ray, but I'm just dropping some knowledge on your bad self. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

If your talking about Burning an Iron Clad CD, to work as a homecart, NO WAY!

The CD system is totally differen't from the MVS or homecart, it wouldn't be that simple, you'd have to re-program the game to run as a homecart, if thats even possible!

If you just mean burn proto types off of the MVS cart, then sure.

There are 2 ways it could be done. The easy way*or harder depending on how you look at it* would be to locate the proto cart and do that. Good luck finding it tho <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Doing it from the CD version. Ah now that's a challange. You would have to know VIRTUALLY what every piece of data does on the CD and where it would need to be assigned to the roms chips ALONG with creating the home board to run this game properly.

You virtually would have to have a Neo Devlopers Kit and those things are harder to get ahold of than anything I can think of in the Neo Scene. <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">

I've personally never even SEEN the Dev kit but, I know what it generally overall should look like. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

THat would be a sweet ass game to have as a release like Strikers. I am sure it can be done but the question is if !Arcade! is willing to go through the work to do it. And if there is enough support if they do. Count me in though.

Hm how are we going to fit 400+ mb of cd-audio into one cart. You'll need the proto for the Sound/Music chips. As the proto is rarely available anywhere, i hate being the one to shatter your dream <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

I mailed my hk source if they could supply it though. I'll let you know if it turns up. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Like I said, If it's EVEN possible, you'd no doubt need a Neo CD dev kit, and an MVS devkit, plus the skills needed to program/re program the cd version.

Hardley worth all the effort...
