I'm not sure where I found it, nor who made it, but I remember some things about it. Some details may be slightly off, because it was like 2-4 years ago

1. It had music, I'm not sure what the name of it is, but that should eliminate Mode7 roms.
2. It had cheat codes. I can't remember which ones
3. It had the sprite of Mario riding Yoshi in it.
4. The background was orange at the bottom, making a gradient to yellow at the top.

I may have gotten it off of Emuparidise, but again, fuzzy memory. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this at. I'm kind of new to here, and forums in general, so sorry in advance.

There's a database somewhere that shows who ripped and released certain roms. If you could narrow down the region, that might speed things up.

There are some databases of intros that had the ROM part removed (often referred to as drawing an intro, there even being some tools that would attempt to do it for you automatically just the same as they might remove them). I don't have any right now but they tended not to host ROMs and instead be proto homebrew (or public domain as some still called it) sites so might have survived all these years.

Otherwise... yeah that could be fun as most would have gone for intro free sets even back when, and the no intro (maybe even garpland) approach being considerably favoured in the many years since. You might have better luck searching for the original dirname or long form name but I don't even have that on hand right now (advanscene being the main release database I use these days, and while it notes a North American mode 7 release it does not mention dirname).

Original mode7 release for the North American version

later redump

Cheats being present however means it is more likely a trainer that was applied which is a whole different thing.
For trainers then Japan and NA http://www.advanscene.com/html/Releases/dbreleases.php?id=0288 http://www.advanscene.com/html/Releases/dbreleases.php?id=0237
The original Cezar European release is mentioned as being patched on the same site but not what it does, nor any indication of cheat options there.
http://gba.dellicious.de/gbatrainer/ is also a good place to get older GBA trainers, newer ones might not always be on that one but those of those were joke ones made anyway.


Edit seems I have a skill or two in searching still, even if we are not going for mode7.

Thank you so much. I have been searching for about a year for this. I am listening to the song right now. For anyone else who wants it, the file name is qtxmp10f. Just patch it to a USA rom, and you're free to go. I can't put the hyperlink because (I think) I'm a new user. Again, thank you so much, it's really appreciated.
