Camerica Aladdin Deck Enhancer (nes_aladdin)
for Batocera and Retrobat
The Aladdin Deck Enhancer is a system-enhancing adaptor to use Compact Cartridges on the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was produced by Camerica and developed by Codemasters but not licensed by Nintendo.
The Aladdin Deck Enhancer contains a bypass Security Circuit Chip, a Memory Control Chip, and a Graphics Chip, which work with the lock-out chip and other features inside the NES. First, the Compact Cartridge is inserted into the Aladdin Deck Enhancer, which is shaped the same as a standard NES cartridge, and then this is inserted into the Control Deck. Inside the slot where the Compact Cartridge is placed is a recessed switch, which changes the Security/Region settings from position A to position B.
It contains 8 kilobytes of RAM for graphics use, and provides a cheaper means with which to make the game cartridges, mainly because each cartridge requires its own 10NES lock-out chip, RAM, and extra circuitry.
The package includes:
20 games (~122 MB)
