Re: [nesmodifications] NES Lockout Chip almost forgot

There are a few unlicensed NES games (such as the Camerica games) that may not work without the lockout chip.  Personally I just snipped pin 4 off and left it at that as there aren't any unlicensed games worth playing (well, Tengen Tetris but they work fine)
