ASM ROM header templates.

For cartridge systems

Address Size Description
$100 8 bytes "NEO-GEO",$00 string (first cartridge recognition code)
$107 byte System version (0)
$108 word NGH number
$10A longword Program size in bytes
$10E longword Pointer to the game save block (in 68k user RAM), will be stored in memcard.
$112 word Size of the game save
$114 byte Boot logo flag. 0=Done by BIOS, 1=Done by game, 2=Nothing
$115 byte Sprite bank number (upper 8 bits of tile number) for the boot logo, if done by BIOS
$116 longword Pointer to Japanese software DIPs settings layout
$11A longword Pointer to US settings software DIPs settings layout
$11E longword Pointer to Euro settings software DIPs settings layout
$122 6 bytes JMP to USER subroutine (code start)
$128 6 bytes JMP to PLAYER_START subroutine
$12E 6 bytes JMP to DEMO_END subroutine
$134 6 bytes JMP to COIN_SOUND subroutine
$182 longword Pointer to security code (second cartridge recognition code)
