HomeThese programs are designed to be run either on a real Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo Family Computer, or Dendy Junior system (with a homemade rewritable cartridge) or in an NES emulator such as Nintendulator, Nestopia, or FCE Ultra. (They will most likely not work in older emulators such as NESticle.)
LJ65 (formerly Tetramino) is yet another clone of the popular Russian block game. This one allows two players and has tighter play control than most Tetris® brand games, especially compared to Tetris for NES. Version 0.41 fixes some more issues that crept in as Bottom rotation was added.

PC programs come with reasonably portable source code and a binary for Microsoft Windows.
18 rips compressed audio waveforms out of many NES games. 81 encodes RIFF WAVE files to NES audio format for use in NES homebrew. Both are command line tools. An example of how to play back a DPCM file on an NES is also available.

These tools comprise a multi-format tile editor, NES nametable editor, and PackBits RLE compressor (C) and decompressor (6502 assembly language). Because the tile editor and compression code are useful for more than just the NES, I have placed them on the PC page.
