Fix for VRC2B Famicom Carts 
Instead of bank switching on a single bank and reading 1024 bytes
at a time, this update switches 8 banks at a time and reads 8 KiB
per iteration. The hypothesis is that the timing between
bank switching and reading 1024 bytes at a time is insufficient for
the mapper while reading in batches of 8 KiB allows for enough
time for the data to be switched and accessible.

This change fixes the ability to dump the following
VRC2B Famicom cartridges:

B27B8CF4 -> Contra (Japan).nes
49123146 -> Getsu Fuuma Den (Japan).nes
AC9895CC -> Dragon Scroll - Yomigaerishi Maryuu (Japan).nes

Also verified a VRC4E Famicom Cartridge:

C1FBF659 -> Akumajou Special - Boku Dracula-kun (Japan).nes

Open Source Cartridge Reader

This project represents a community-driven effort to provide an easy to build and easy to modify cartridge dumper. Its main purpose is to dump a video game's ROM and save file to an SD card without the need of a PC.

For any questions you can use the Discussions and/or Issues section here on Github or visit the accompanying thread in the Arduino Forum, where you can reach most of the devs directly.

Also be sure to check the guides in the Wiki too.

Happy making. 🔧🔨😊
