Duck Hunt VS (NES-patch)Description

Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)

Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.

Duck Hunt (VS) NES-patch
========================
Version: 1.61


What's this?
============
Finally, it's "Duck Hunt(VS)" patched to be playable on a real NES instead of the
VS Unisystem. I haven't tried the patch on the hardware (I don't have a Zapper or CRT-tv),
but if you encounter any problems, feel free to contact me.


Please notice
=============
If you have intentions of selling Duck Hunt(VS)-cartridges using my patch, please don't.


Features
========
* Patched to use mapper 1 instead of odd mapper 99.
* VS-Zapper emulation
* VS-Zapper theft-detection-alarm cracked. :)
* Coin-insert emulation by pressing "Start" on gamepad in port 1.
* Highscore saving
* Dipswitch settings screen to alter game parameters.


Usage
=====
Apply patch to "Duck Hunt(VS).nes". Press "start" on gamepad connected to port 1.
Make sure you have your Zapper connected to port 2.

When the game starts you can change the dipswitch-settings if you want. Press
SELECT to proceed to game.
The dipswitch settings allows you to alter difficulty and other things. For example,
set the dipswitches to "00100000" to start with 5 allowed misses instead of 3.
