I'm looking for big famicom cartridges for my dev purposes (most of them were published by KOEI).

Most of them are `crappy` rpg so I prefer to exchange for sth from my stuff but consider any good offer.
I also looking for few pcb types so if you have tons of fc cartridges, maybe I'll be also interested.

They look like this:

This is for repros right?  I've also been stashing up on MMC5 carts - as I figure there's only a finite amount of them around, and more and more new ROM hacks require MMC5.  They're usually in great condition!

Yes, for making repros. I also like these shells because have 4 screws at the back side instead latches (like NES cartridges).

I particularly like the example you have there - it says "FAMICOM" in the top left, where most of these cars say "Nintendo".  Just an interesting little tidbit I noticed.

mt777, idź sobie na eBay, tam tego od pyty leży za parę dolców i nikt tego nie kupuje, a jak nie, to spytaj tutaj kogoś z Japonii kto ma dostęp do auctions.yahoo.co.jp, tam też za grosze nabędziesz ile chcesz.

Yes, I also love those big "Famicom" shells  8)

Hey krzy! Are you reffering to making a TTL logic board like the one you reverse engineered in this topic?

(This is so amazing by the way!!! Thanks MWK for pointing me at it!!)

Anyhow, I will be really in for that Super Mario All Stars hack!

I wonder what MMC5 features are needed to emulate it. 1MG PRG - ok (but probably only menu switches into prg of selected game and no more access is later done), same for CHR
IRQ -> probably yes because SMB3 uses that
64kB wram or exram or char fill mode -> probably not

Don't look at me, I'll not sacrifice my pirated MMC5 cartridges to find out, lol :crazy:

You take that back!  Koei games some of my favourite childhood games!  I'll admit they are better when you can read them, but still!
GRRR!
