Important Notes

• Unopened games should have their ROM and save data dumped before attempting to play them. This avoids inadvertent modification of the data and helps preserve the game in its unused/“factory” state. Note in your submission whether the physical media was sealed and include a photo of the cart/packaging in its sealed state, if possible.
• If a dump's hashes don't match an existing dump, verify you've correctly dumped it by cleaning the cart's contacts (or equivalent) and dumping it again.
