Have you tried using any Codemasters games on it such as Cosmic Spacehead, Micro Machines and Fantastic Dizzy? Those cartridges, along with pirate/bootleg "15-in-1" type games might have problems. Would be interesting to see if they all work.
I only wish Krikzz would use the same type of RAM that RetroUSB uses. For instance the NES and SNES Powerpaks load roms up in a fraction of a second. I would personally rather have that than the "stay in memory" option.
I also hope he starts making the EverDrive and Super Everdrive with the SDHC Micro cards. If you can put a $13 8GB Micro card in there with every rom there wouldn't be much reason to ever open it again (unless for a proto or homebrew release).
On PC i have Visual Boy Advance and works great. For Supercard i just download the file unzip the file and that's it. And i have GG,NES ,SMS games But i didn't try how movies works on that card. For movies i have P1i phone. There are many emulators out there but i trust only two web site i found. I watched your video for Famicom micro. You made a big mistake selling it. I have standard Micro which is made of aluminum and i will not sell that. But you still have NES SP.
Supercard can't run SNES or SMD games, but can run NES,SMS,GG and GB line games. Even PC Engine works on Supercard but gameplay is super slow. When i want to play different game i reset Supercard by pressing all buttons on GBA. And maybe is that the reason why is not working anymore. That Supercard i used with GBA Micro. Now i am stuck with emulator for games i don't have.
@prulcan Yeah I had a similar flash card on GBA that used SD cards. It was advertised as a movie player but of course it was just a flash cart like anyother it holds programs that the GBA can run. There are many emulators for the GBA and I had an NES and GB emulator on mine too since I had a micro so I could play original GB games on it. Plus I could play MP3s and watch MPEG4 video. I had a cool Japanese famicom edition GB micro that I really regret selling now.
I'm not sure what you think is wrong with them, they just play games. I wouldn't buy one personally, just because I don't play that many games, but they're sure as Hell better than Plug n' Plays.
I hope that Everdrive is more reliable than those Supercard's for GBA . My is not working anymore :( Everdrive is good for games you don't have or is hard to find but those games on micro SD are still a pirate games that's for sure. Normally i don't like pirate cartridges with single maybe incomplete game but i do like those type of cartridges like Everdrive because you can download games for free. And i would like to have Everdrive for N64. That Everdrive look's so legit really good design.
@prulcan My Everdrive has been bang on since I got it and I've played hundreds of Genesis games on it. I think it's pretty well built and should last a long time.
You should do a review of the PC Engine Flash Cart, it is just as good as the everdrive, expect that it can only hold 128M of data, there was on 94 TG 16 games released, but you can play JAP games also, its pretty sweet.
That came with a ton more stuff than my Everdrive for my fabulous 16-bit Sega® Genesis Video Entertainment System. You must have paid a lot more for this stuff. How much more did you pay for this compared to what it would cost from some place else? I'm still waiting for the TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine Everdrive. Make it happen for me, bird man!
@MrGameSack My EverDrive and the EverDrive you can buy now from Stone Age Gamer comes with a shell with sticker, clam case with custom art, the firmware upgrade coupons and a 2GB SD card unless you buy just the base board. Many of the EverDrive units are sold with the option to get the whole kit ready to go or just the circuit board that you have to put into your own cart shell. But anyway no one else sells these in North America cheaper than Stone Age Gamer anyway.
Coupon code is the sticker so if you cut it wrong you cant use it.. I LOLed. That thing looks cool man how much did you pay for it? top quality... I need one of those in my life.
@MN12BIRD I dont believe the AllGenGamers podcast has had a episode where its focused primarily on Sega. You could do a great service by giving your 2 cents about Sega.
ya, i'll just keep chugging along with my jailbroken psp and the emulators for snes, sms,nes,gg,sega cd and genesis. everyone has their own thing but it seems like alot of trouble and money. i'm fucking thrilled with the sega cd theme back though !!!
Really wish there was something similar for the Atari Lynx, I'm sure somebody could design one. I don't play my Game Gear as i have an emulator on my PSP, however Lynx emulation is really poor, its a downer because i love my lynx.
Hi, I've got two questions. Is there any Game Gear clone system that you've heard of, and will EverDrive work with it (that's assuming this clone has standard Game Gear cartridge slot, not SD)?
i see what looks like an lpc port (well the pads for one) odds are the fermware is direct programed to the flash chip through that. Same as the old xbox
I have a Supercard for the Gameboy Advance. It plays all gameboy games from the original GB to GBA. It also plays NES and Sega Game Gear games. Just load the ROMs on a micro SD card and you're good to go. I've had it for two years and it works perfectly. Loads the ROMS very fast. No wait time at all compared to your Everdrive GG. Save states and SRAM are supported and work well. It was $20 US.
Being one of those people who could never get N64 emulation to work properly for whatever reason, I welcome the news of a flash cart, especially to save me the obscene mark ups some of the more popular games get on the Internet.
And I'm totally buying the one for the SNES as well, playing those games with a keyboard or another systems controller via USB just feels so wrong when I have the real thing sitting, underused, in a closet.
The supereverdrive is a lot better than the snes powerpak, which costs a fair bit more, it might load roms a little faster, but the supereverdrive has authomatic sram save while the powerpak you have to reset the console then you can save it.
Thats so cool! If someone would of told me the ever drive would of exist in the future when the Game Gear was still new, my head would of probably exploded like that unlucky guy in scanners! Awesome video, good job!
That would be great if they were able to make a dongle cart that let you play your gg games on your tv. I would love to be able to record the actual games instead of just emulators.
@TheUnbiasedGamer Yeah that would be cool. I've seen a few modded Game Gears with AV output and a controller port to use SMS controllers but I doubt that's an easy mod.
@MN12BIRD the reason you have an unlimited time limit (yes its really unlimited) is because you've had a youtube account for a few years and its in good standing-the same thing happened to my account but i'm not a partner by any means
