This is an example of what I like to call soft circuit bending. When you circuit bend a Nintendo/NES you usually end messing up the graphics and corrupting the RAM. This ROM does just that, but with software – and you can see the results are similar to what you’d expect with hardware circuit bending.

All effects in the video are controlled by buttons – when the image is static a button isn’t being pressed. You can see that there are a lot of possibilities, including pressing multiple buttons to simultaneously scroll and corrupt the screen.

If you’re interested in this and want to know more, check out my web site soon.

I plan to have tutorials to help you write your own NES bending software with full open source examples. In the future I will also have kits for sale for those that would like to run these ROM’s on real NES systems
