I've been trying to read more about this, and it looks like it was being developed and was cancelled before release?

Some results say it was released, but I'm wondering if it's getting mixed up with some other Bible games. This one was supposedly basically going to be an e-book.

Are you able to format rom cartridges and turn them into memory cards? Asking for a friend.

If you're asking if you can write arbitrary data to bootleg Gameboy games, the answer is yes.

I'm just not entirely sure what you mean by "memory card"

I mean, to write mario to it so they can play Mario and have a blast while grandma thinks it's still the holy bible.

I like the line of thinking, but I feel like it would be much easier just switching the stickers on the cartridge lol

Or just swap the shells. All you need is a gamebit screwdriver or a pen and a lighter.

Only with modern bootlegs. Back then, games were written on mask ROMs, meaning the chips were literally manufactured with the data already written to it. They are non-rewritable.

... a guide to Zelda?

Not, because I do not have a Gameboy Advance
