    If you're really enjoying yourself and want to get real carts still though, one might be interest in going Japanese, all it takes is a honeybee converter or some other same same device. I've got 3 cheap NES/SNES games that are decent if you're interested -- Tag Team Wrestling and Rush'n Attack (NES arcade conversions) and Hyperzone (by HAL, who made Kirby etc, kind of like f-zero and starfox in one.)

    I'm pretty broke right now, but thanks for the offer!

    Does it also include all of the Sachen games, like Hell Fighter?

    Well with flash carts you have to load the game roms onto the flash cart (they dont come with the roms on them).
    However I dont think Sachen games work on Flash carts, I have a PowerPak and I just tried Hell Fighter and it did not work. I wouldnt be surprised if all or most sachen games dont work on flash carts.

    It would include whatever you want to throw on it as far as I know. I don't recall ever reading a limit to what it can or can not load up but it wouldn't be hard for you to look it up. I'd think that any standard single or licensed multicart would work, unlicensed multi-carts maybe not if they use some quirky header into that the flash kit hasn't been taught. The NES is a picky brat as there's a good selection of special memory mapper chips, some of them are or are nearly one off stuff for one game and it would be a lot to expect anything and everything to work.

    Much like on the SNES there's a few annoying special chips that enhance (some greatly) what the SNES can pull off but they also double down as a security lockout chip too you can't get around. The Everdrive won't run almost any of them other than the basic DSP that Mario Kart/Pilotwings handles, but you can forget SA-1, FX, CX4(MMx2 and 3), and many others. There's one nearly $100 higher the SD2SNES that runs some of the chips like the CX4 (which alone given MMX2 or X3 cost like $200 would pay for itself off one of those games) it's a big cost going in still.

    You really just need to go to krikzz page and read up what the everdrive is capable of and not, there's a compatibility list, same with his everdrive for SNES and the SD2SNES page lists where it goes (everdrive doesn't) and where it stops at.

    Does that mean Sachen games can't be duplicated or that they can be done some other way?

    Sachen games probably could be re-made as repros or your probably could play them on some emulator on a computer or something like that. The powerpak probably just doesnt have the mapper needed to play the sachen games.

    Any idea where I can find a copy or know who can make a repro of it? I've googled it for a while and even called some local stores with no luck.
