Can't decide on your favorite? Use 'em all!eskayelle2021-04-11Version 1.0

You ever pick up a game of turtles and just feel like swapping out your green machine mid-game? With Ness' patch and a copy of TMNT II, it's as easy as pressing Select. This patch does exactly what it advertises, providing a seamless transition among the fearsome foursome. Hub, sprites and palette... it's all smoothly swapped with a single button press.

If I had any constructive criticism to give, it'd be this... is it possible in a version 1.1 to revise some of the locations the custom code is using and make this compatible with nesrocks' Options Menu patch?
