| Paper Mario and Super Mario 64 are both retail PAL ROMs. Kirby, despite it being a PAL release, is using the USA version. |

Is Kirby's Adventure, "(USA)" or "(USA) (Rev A)"?
Also, do you mind telling me how to find the end of a NES ROM in a .app/.dol?

It's the PRG1 / Rev A ROM, completely identical except with the PRG RAM flag cleared for some reason. The end of the ROM is 768kb after the start, just like always.
The Dream Land 1 and 2 ROMs are also identical to the US versions, and I suspect both SNES ROMs are as well (except for a single long run of changed bytes which I'm pretty sure only involves the removed audio).

Thanks, I should I've checked the length of some NES ROMs 
I've updated the first post with that info.

It's interesting that the European release uses the US ROMs. That reminds me that there are a handful of little differences between all of the European / North American versions of Kirby's Adventure that I still need to formally document (and some more interesting stuff like unused sprite types that aren't on the wiki yet either). But that's a topic for another thread (I'll probably post one eventually...)

Oops. I've changed it to say "(USA)" now.

The answers are probably obvious, but:
* How do I cut off data past x bytes in a file?
* How many bytes should I keep, to get only the ROM?
* What type of NES ROM would be the equivalent to the one included in VCs?

* Select and press the Del key
* As much as the original game has
* See also: The iNES header in the VC releases

There are many Mario Bros. ROMs available which use the iNES header. How do I know which to use?

The thing you're looking at is the size. Think logically.

Logical thinking somehow ended up with a Wii U VC: http://jul.rustedlogic.net/thread.php?pid=440668
