Dude, Gameboy copiers have been around for years. I have one for GB, GBC, GBA, DS.

It's the consoles that have seen lack of available flash cart loving.

I would LOVE to have on of these. The GBC is the greatest handheld EVER created:)

I can find DS and GBA copiers everywhere (the games are still sold retail though so I'm not a big supporter of them). I would love to be pointed to a GBC cart that I can use in my GBC. I'm not saying they don't exist but I still can't find one.

They were everywhere for awhile... I don't see them online anymore. Might have been a timing thing.

Mine's parallel which is a bit of a pain in the ass. It's labelled GB Transferer. I'll dig it up and take pics - might help with your search.

Not my pic but this is exactly what you're looking for. From this thread: .

GBC carts are a bitch to find. I managed to find a copier once, but have never found a cart for a reasonable price. Even still, they never held many games. We need a modern one using modern flash memory. Agreed. This would be the greatest cart.

I have an assload of GBC and GB games to catch up on, and this would be the easiest way without putting th GB collection into disarray.

I thought you could use a GBA Flash Advance Linker with a "GB Bridge".

Anyway, surely Goomba is perfectly adequate?

But are there any copiers that don't use hardware that has been phased out of many modern computers? :P

Yes, there's copiers for them, but a lot of people don't have Parallel ports on their computers anymore. Or if they do, they don't work. Or the drivers for these simply won't work on modern OSes. It's about time someone came out with something that ran on modern OSes...

Edit: I apologize for the snarkiness, but GBC copiers weren't as common as I would've liked. I really wish that USB-enabled GBC flash drives had been easier to come by.

What about the SmartBoy?

USB, 32M, works with GB/GBC, still available, and rather inexpensive.

Hahaha no problem :)

I have one and it works great, doesn't support multiple roms at the same time but considering how fast it flashes with USB it's not a big deal to me.
