Video Game ROM Burners
A guy I know has a side business where he makes reproduction Nintendo NES and SNES games. He burns the ROMs of foreign and unreleased games then solders them to PCBs to make game cartridges. Does anybody know if what he uses would also be able to burn ROMs for PCMs? What details do you need to know about his device to be able to tell?

How many pin burner does he have? I believe our computers require 28 pin chips. (it can be more than 28 pins)
Other than that I wouldn't have a clue. My first thought would be, install tunerpro on a computer, plug in the burner and choose the correct com port, make sure the starting and ending addresses were correct, burn a test chip and see if it works.

Oh, didn't know that. Thanks for posting.
Sounds like it could get a little hairy making your own protocols.

It is a 32-pin device so we're good there. I talked to him today and he said it's compatible with a lot of different EEPROMS.

You may want to beware of guilt by association because he sounds like a pirate.
