welcome to my personal hell

dragon warrior iii for the game boy color describes me as "stubborn", and i'm tempted to agree with that assessment

was paging through some code (trying to work out the betting system) and noticed there were 8 bytes, after the 8 bytes each reserved for joypad 1 and 2. and of course, one of the cross references is "UpdateJoypads", so...

near the end of that function there was some unused code that i hadn't yet marked as code, and, oh, fancy seeing you there.

this isn't quite a smoking gun of the game checking for non-standard inputs or systems, but it's probably as close as i'm going to get. three unused, unreferenced subroutines that simply set the flags to show the config screens.

these do not exist in this game. those are in dian shi ma li only.

god, every time i just start poking around this piece of shit i find something neat
