Re: Reverse Historical Engineering
Several manufacturers like Color Dreams IIRC charge-pumped the CiC, allowing them to release unlicensed games. Meanwhile, the Game Genie used a piggyback technique to slip through. However, some models that appeared just before the top-loaders had diodes to defend against charge pumps.
Tengen's reverse-engineered chip, BTW, was codenamed "Rabbit".
