[BSNESv115+] Kaizou Choujin Shubibinman Zero (2017 cart release) doesn't work #3749

Closed Sonia-7 closed 1 year ago

Sonia-7 commented 1 year ago

The game was originally released for Satellaview in 1997, but it got a physical cart release in 2017, which is in No Intro. It runs fine in Ares v132, but if you try to run it in BizHawk, you get this error:

Error

The emulator insists it's a Satellaview game even though it's just a regular cart. It doesn't need anything from Satellaview to run.

Just checking which file it is before I start digging into headers:

gamedb (only has Satellaview version): 5B6A4D0740183703F35A349AFB6088A8603D8966

My copies:

$> sha1sum *

$> # nope... I presume `4B6D...` is the version you're referring to, but I'm wondering why my copy of the Satellaview version doesn't match the DB
CasualPokePlayer commented 1 year ago

The gamedb would be based on an ancient nointro (or some other db idk) db. The proper .bs dump hashes wouldn't be in the gamedb unless they got recently added in.

Just saw the new label. Not sure what kind of response you're waiting from me exactly, but if it's a confirmation that "4B6D..." is the dump I used, then yes.

It's correctly being identified as a Satallaview (broadcast) rom, HiROM, FastROM, title "シュビビンマン零", 1 play remaining.

This wasn't a totally pointless exercise though; I noticed my impl. for the plays remaining field is wrong.
