Wonderboy 3 as a dev cart and glued carts?
Post Posted: Tue Jul 04, 2000 4:03 pm



Can Wonderboy 3 be used as a dev cart? It's got the 2 chips except the paging chip (if that's what it is) isn't 315-5208 it's labelled 315-5365.

Also whilest going through my games looking for one with a regular paging chip I discovered that my Bomber Raid was screwed AND glued. It's glued well enough that I couldn't open it with my fingers once the screws were off so I just left it but I thought it was strange because I'd never heard of one being glued before..

Yes - in fact it's identical to my Bubble Bobble cartridge. (See picture linked below to compare.) It's better than the 315-5208 in that it can support ROMs up to 256k (possibly 512k, though I haven't got this to work).

Was it an ex-rental by any chance? I've heard of rental stores doing this to stop people tampering with their cartridges.

Hmm could be I got it from a pawn shop but it didn't have a sticker on it and if they did glue it the opened it up and gloed the edges because it's a very clean job.

Thanks allot,
Matt
