Making SEGA Genesis cartridges
lilshawn:
you wonna try SNES games next? they are super easy! :P ive done about 2 dozen games. same same, remove rom, burn a new one byte swapped... couple jumpers to swap 2 legs, and done.
pbj:
Through a combination of work incentives and class action lawsuit payouts, I managed to pick up an SD2SNES for about $40 out of pocket. That has instant loading, save state support, etc etc. Should be here by the end of the week.
I also don't really feel the urge to do the SNES thing like I did Genesis, and you get into complications like buying expensive donor cartridges or making new expensive blanks. Star Fox 2 is slightly tempting, but even that's gonna be about $20-30 each and you have to snuff another game to do it. I've got a few tire kickers on that one but nobody's committing. I see people selling those for ~$60 and frankly that's probably worth it if you want one.

i would buy one of those carts if they didn't want 225 bucks for the latest everdrive "FXpak pro" version ones... and 199 for the n64 one to while i was at it.
that said i've probably spent over 200 bucks on used carts and roms to make the ones i have now. c'est la vie :dunno

$105 for a Chinese version. It’s not even a bootleg as it was all open source.
:cheers:

So I burned another eprom with your image and still no go. But I tried that rom in another donor pcb and it worked. Something else im missing on the first pcb.
