Blaster Master MMC1 to MMC3 Hack

Use Delta Patcher to patch the xdelta file to the ROM. 
Ignore the checksum and then patch the file.

Changes for this version 1.1
Fixed the PPU Viewer and removed Patch A & B since it's no longer needed
anymore. Now, All hacks are now supported. I also changed something in the MMC5 Setup
so Metroid - Dark Alliance hack can work with my MMC5 hack.
