So if someone has anything they're working on in IPS form, I'm curious to just play around with the console and would love to load it onto an SD card to try it out. Make sure the patch is on your desktop and unzipped from its ZIP file.
#Create ips patch hyperkin how to#
The Retron 5 plays NES/Famicom/Sega Genesis/Megadrive/SNES/Super Famicom/Game Boy/Game Boy Color/Game Boy Advance/Sega Master System (via a power base converter or clone), so any of these can take patches through the Retron 5 OS. Here's how to use Lunar IPS to apply an IPS patch: Firstly, if the directions that came with the patch state that an unheadered ROM is required, that's a separate process that needs to be done first: how to remove the header from a ROM. Here's what I DO own: NHL Hockey (Sega) NHLPA '93 (both) NHL 95 (Sega) NHL '96 (Sega) NHL '97 (both) and NHL 2002 (GBA). But I definitely plan on adding one to my collection because it really is the best of the bunch. This means that you can now add in fan made translation patches to many imported games that was not made with English in mind like so many Japanese role playing games. Unfortunately, '94 is the one I do not own in cart form (I always rocked the Sega CD version, which was my favorite, but my JVC X'Eye finally crapped out this year). Now the value of Hyperkin’s retro gaming console has added in some new features with the latest Firmware V 2.0 Beta 1 which includes IPS patch support. Finding standalone IPS patches for the 16-bit NHL series, however, has proven more difficult.

I've had good luck with various 16-bit games, too. I noticed several IPS updates were available for games such as Blades of Steel (Sochi-fied for this year's Olympics) and the usual Tecmo Super Bowl updates, and they work gloriously on the system. Unfortunately, the system does not play ROMs because it's concerned with not breaking any laws (the patents on the systems themselves have all expired so that part is fair game) so IPS it must be. The reason I'm seeking just the IPS patch and not an already-patched ROM is because I am using the Hyperkin Retron 5 console with its beta firmware, which allows the patching of the ROM dumped directly from the cartridge that I own through IPS patches.

Please pardon my ignorance if this has already been tackled at length (I searched around but didn't quite find what I was looking for), but I am seeking IPS patches to update various entries in the NHL series on either/both console.
