Is there a list anywhere of the different type of pcb's that are in NES Games and the games that use them? (including unreleased games) Thanks!

There are quite a few lists of "mappers" used by different NES games out there. That would probably help a lot.
Offhand, I'm not quite sure where to find one, but I think there are small lists in the documentation of some emulators.

Look through LeonK's thread about his repro carts in the selling section of this board. He lists the carts required to make quite a few 'protos'. As for the released boards I have an Access database that lists what board every cart contanied when I opened my carts but it is a litle too big to attach here. If there is a specific type of board you need I can list all the carts that contain it.

Thanks AlanD, you have been very helpful.
I have read information on this...I just can not tell how you can tell which chip to use when you make these. Thats all

It boils down to rom size. If the files you're using are 128k each you use a 27C010 eprom for example, 256k would be a 27C020, etc.
http://nesdev.parodius.com/ is also a great resource you should look into for information regarding mappers/eprom use etc.
