I'm thinking of getting an Everdrive or some other "allows you to play downloaded roms on a real console" device, mostly cuz I want to play romhacks like Zelda Outlands and Super Metroid Redesign and this seems more economical than buying a repro cart.
But I'm wondering about a few things. Some of these questions might seem boneheaded, but better safe than sorry.
Here goes.
1. Can you save your game on games like Zelda which have battery-backed saving, or does the data get lost as soon as you turn off the console?
2. Can the SNES version do games that use the Super FX or other enhancement chips, or do I need a repro cart for those?
3. How exactly does loading multiple roms on the thing work? Does it give you a list when you turn on the console and ask you to select your game or what?
4. Are there alternatives to the Everdrive I should know about?
5. If the answer to 4 is "yes," what are their pros and cons compared to the Everdrive?
Thanks in advance.
