I picked up copys of Dragon Quest 1 - 4 on famicom cheap and i want to swap the eproms to make them in English. But i want to swap the title screens from the Dragon Quest roms to the Dragon Warrior 1-4 roms. Can anyone help or point me where or what to do |
| Arseen:
That involves manipulating the actual ROM and will be quite a big job I believe, but good luck. I'd start with Google and search "NES ROM hacking" or "NES ROM altering". |

As Arseen said, may want to do some research on it. You may want to just program new rom chips altogether with DW 1-4 and instal then on the PCB instead of trying to "alter" the existing chip. |

I think he wants to alter the ROM to be in English but have Dragon Quest title screens. |

He would have to erase the chip, then flash the new data to it. |
