Game Description:
Pachi Com is a boardgame for the Nintendo Entertainment System.
Hack Description:
Pachi Com is a Japan-exclusive pachinko game for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

This game is well-known for an angry hidden message left in by Y.S., one of the game's programmers.
In one section of said message, Y.S. mentions that the "previous" sounds can be re-enabled by changing a few bytes at certain addresses.

This hack applies said changes. The difference is most notable on a sound effect which only uses the triangle channel - the pitch is lower after applying the changes.

You will need an IPS patch installer to patch the rom such as Lunar IPS.
