    Hi everyone,
    I've been looking for a way to test Gameboy DMG systems. Is there a homebrew ROM, or some official Nintendo service test ROM that allows you to check if buttons are responsive on a console and/or other features of the system? Short of me using GBDK and writing/compiling a test ROM myself, does anyone know of a good alternative?

    Currently I just use various games, but it's kind of annoying as not all games use all the buttons or give proper feedback when being pressed.

    Yep, the Controller Kensa Cartridge. I had one a while ago and made a dump of it, but I think you can find it online already anyway.

    Ah that's perfect. I'm glad someone made a dump of it. It seems for some reason, it's very hard to find any service related cartridges for the Gameboy that have been dumped. Lots of people talk about owning a cart, or showing a video of how it works, but not many people talk about dumping them. :/
