Hack description

This patch converts StarTropics from MMC6 to MMC3. It is only useful for any emulators or flashcarts that still rely on the hash of the ROM to enable MMC6.

This patch is to be applied to a headered ROM (iNES or NES 2.0).

It is also compatible with other patches such as the infamous "StarTropics (Music Fix)" by rainwarrior and the "nesce_mempatches" from rhester72.

Enjoy!

does what it says on the tin––converts this underlooked game from its one-off MMC6 mapper to a proper TKROM board with MMC3. (after all, the only reason MMC6 existed was to save on RAM chips––bean counting no longer applies in the era of emulation!) anyway, if you don't know what any of that means, you don't need this hack :)
