NES Game To Bitmap Converter Debuts

Thanks to retro site Zophar's Domain for hosting and highlighting a new PC tool for use with Nintendo Entertainment System cart images, NAPIT (scroll down to find link, and check out all the other interesting game editors while you're at it). This fun utility allows the user to save a NES game as multiple bitmap files, alter the parts of the bitmap containing graphical data (game sprites), and then reconvert to a perfectly working ROM image. Just don't alter all those pretty patterns that represent the game logic, will you?

Go to http://www.zophar.net/utilities/facelift.html and scroll down to NAPIT. Right click and save. Well that worked for me :)

Doesn't seem to work

I tried this on a rom that I have, and after it was done processing, I had about 32 bitmap files.

But none of them could be opened using any image editing software that I have.

Definatly not new news.

Nesticle allowed you to edit the tiles WAY back in 98. I had lots of fun back then, editing my old NES games to do goofy things like have the guys in Kung Fu throw spoons at you.
I'd give Nesticle a look.
It may be considered outdated as a dos app'. But it's still the original king.

more editing utils....
