SYNOPSIS

    use Games::NES::ROM::Database;
    
    my $db = Games::NES::ROM::Database->new;
    my $info = $db->find_by_crc( $crc );

DESCRIPTION

This database holds information about known game images. You can find out which mapper to use, how many PRG and CHR chunks it has, if it is an NTSC or PAL game, among other things.

DATABASE VERSION

The database has been synchronized with version 1.40 of the Nestopia emulator.

METHODS

Given a CRC hex string, it will return a hashref of info from the database or undef if it does not exist in the database.

find_by_sha1( $sha1 )

Similar to find_by_crc, but uses an SHA-1 hex string.

find_by_rom( $rom )
