That's awesome! But why on earth would it cost so much?

Nope, just seems expensive. Can it fit more than one game at a time? Is there battery save for games like shinning force?

It's a start though....if someone can build on this, it could be a great product and I'd definitely get another Genesis for this.  At least it'll probably be much cheaper than the NES flashcart that's available.

I'm pretty sure it's his own invention.

they need something like this for all the consoles
N64 next, but it needs to have an sd card slot to put as many games as you want on it.
I wonder if that would fit in the normal genesis cartridge, doesnt look like it.

Shrink it left to right and it may fit in an old EA cart...

How good is the compatibility with ROMs? How many play OK and what are some titles that won't play? Does it load one ROM at a time or does it have a loader type menu to scroll a list of games? What is the shipping? What country will it ship from? Does it fit inside a cartridge shell (if you alter the shell) or do you have to pull it in and out of the system as a unprotected board? I know its a lot of questions, please answer as many as you can. I'm always looking for a new flash cart. If its a good one. :)

all he needs to do is solder in an SD plug and he's good to go so we can put as many games as we'd like onto it :D

 Ive saw these before and the 35ish price tag sounds familiar. An no there is no rom loader, you load the roms one at a time.
