Doboutsu no Mori + Unused Hidden NES FDS Famicom Disk System game 15 22 謎の村雨城 Nazo no Murasame-jō
0謎の村雨城, Nazo no Murasame-jō is another recent discovery, a well-hidden secret inside of the original Japanese Gamecube port of the N64 game Doboutsu no Mori, Doboutsu no Mori + plus. Really unfortunate the game is impossible to obtain without using an external method because it is a very good game, arguable one of the better FDS games.
Here is where the situation becomes strange. The file is stored on the disc (both versions) inside of a file called Famicom.arc along with the rest of standard the games. The game actually isn't referenced to an in-game item model ID that determines the inventory and item properties so it can't be obtained in-game and is only possible to play if the game is forced to load from the file ID number.

Emulating NES games inside of an N64 emulator running within a Gamecube emulator running inside Dolphin, a Gamecube emulator! Are you confused yet?
Dolphin does emulate the NES very well. Numerous graphical and audio errors. I am using Dolphin because it is easier than setting up my Japanese orange Gamecube and using a phone camera to record objectively lower quality footage.
The problem is the that because DnM+ doesn't define a table for unused NES games, it will overwrite other save data in other games and save them to the same location inside the NES memory card file, so only one game can have a clean save file at a time.

I wouldn't be surprised if the thought to include TMC in DnM+ was relative to the release dates for both games.
