It's my understanding that the key is generated from the (top?) 4K of the
final game image, and that the console checks the key against this 4k rom
block. So if you take a working 4k block/key pair and then simply JMP away,
you've beaten it...at the expense of wasting 4k of your rom space.
Anyone verify this?
