TODO

As mentioned in
|
||||||
|
[Why game folders?](#why-game-folders),
|
||||||
|
a game cartridge contains
|
||||||
|
more than just the raw data of the game.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
higan uses a "manifest" to
|
||||||
|
describe how the various parts of a game cartridge
|
||||||
|
are wired up together,
|
||||||
|
and the Manifest Viewer lets you examine
|
||||||
|
the configuration higan is using for the currently-running game.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For some games,
|
||||||
|
an actual cartridge has been taken apart and carefully examined
|
||||||
|
and its configuration has been recorded in icarus' database,
|
||||||
|
so the manifest icarus produces
|
||||||
|
is guaranteed accurate.
|
||||||
|
For games that do not exist in icarus' database,
|
||||||
|
icarus will make a reasonable guess.
|
||||||
|
This is enough to get the game running,
|
||||||
|
but does not necessarily reflect the original cartridge.
