I'm trying to learn to use IDA pro (v 5.0) by myself, using MIDA. And I actually can disassembly many things, but, how I could edit the code, and compile it later?

you can export the code as .asm (File>Produce file> create asm file)
I don't think you'll be able to compile as-is the code but if you clean it enought, it should be possible
I'm not on assembler myself so I can't give you the name of the needed assembler.

A hint, if you use only IDA to understand where to modify the rom for something specific, it's not the right thing to do.
For the NHL hack, I just found the memory address to write/read to and address to insert my hack.
then I wrote the hack code only and inserted some jmp's Wink
