You could do a GBC Pokémon game. You won't learn NES ASM but you will learn the basics of ASM, which will make it much easier.

any suggestions on a good game to start cracking, preferrably with a large code documentation? i guess ill go with this disassembly of metroid by kent hanson i dug up for now,

It always does - every game's coded differently.

Use FCEUXD or FCEUXDSP, and poke around in the debugger. Start with something simple like an infinite lives hack.

One word: Breakpoints.

I'll leave it to someone who's done some NES work to elaborate.

okay, so i have a listing of the nes instruction set. now where do i go to begin to learn what to look for in the assembly of a game (fceud maybe?) to find formats and data for things such as (ill use ff for example) armor data,,monster info, etc? i know its already been documented for this particular example, but i wanna write an editor for a nes game that hasnt been done yet.. thanks
