I never understood the point of a flash cart. I much prefer to get a USB to NES/SNES/64/whatever and just run an emulator.

some people like the feel of playing on official hardware. But yeah for the most part, I would be inclined to agree, that being said, eventually I'd like to have a SD2SNES but another couple hundred and I could get a Intel Core 2 and run BSNES and it would be just like playing on real hardware.

I get what you're saying. But in that case they're only running on halfly official hardware, since the game is a "pirate" so to speak. But hey it's an opinion, and if you or anybody else prefers to use a flash cart who am I to tell you that you're doing it wrong?

I am completely in. Can't wait.

I'll still be buying carts for collecting purposes, but I'm glad to be able to try out some of the titles that will take me some time to get.

Can't wait!  Predicted price range?  $150?

Usually bare flash carts (pcb only) are about $80, although stoneagegamer puts them in cart shells and upcharges for it.

I have a Super Everdrive, it's awesome. Hopefully this will be equally awesome. I'll be interested in seeing what mappers this supports.

There is nothing like real hardware. I have an RGB NES abd 37" RGB monitor, and NES games look like I am playing an Arcade game.

I hope next is a GB mono/color flash cart...

I've gotten several Everdrives and I like all of them so far. I think he'll make it be great the only question is will it have great mapper support from the beginning or be like the N64 Everdrive that took a few months and a hardware revision to have about 99% compatibility.

RGB_Gamer

As much as I like the NES PowerPak, I totally welcome a Famicom Everdrive. I actually would like that it is gonna be in a Famicom shell, as well as later, an NES one. Mapper support is gonna be what could make or break it. FDS support and NSF player would be nice to include, as well as Game Genie. Real time save would be awesome too.

Anyone know of an ETA for this?

Mannn sucks for 80sFreak. I support his flashcart though.

I think a lot of people are fully behind you, I know I am.
