SNES Flash cart?

[Fer]

If this is breaking board rules, lock the thread.

I've been hearing about a GBA Flash kit that lets you upload ROMs onto a cart that you can put into the actual GBA. My question is, is there something like that for the SNES?

Hmm... I'm interested.

You'd need an EPROM to do that, I believe. As for getting that in the cartridge yourself, I don't know. I don't even know about the GBA one.

HOWEVER...

I remember when I was in Jebal Ali in 2002, I bought this GBA game (obviously a bootleg, as it was for "Game Advance USA") that had one GBA game (Mega Man Battle Network 2), and 107 other PERFECT copies of NES games (no battery usage for them, sadly), most of them European. I think the game itself got stolen (that sucks; I'll never get the chance to buy that again), but I still have the box, and it's funny how they advertise these games (example: putting the Castlevania: Circle of the Moon box art up, when the game on the cart is the original Castlevania). I can scan it and put it up for anyone that wants to see it.

But I think they did that by using that program you're talking about. I've never seen one, and never even heard of one being available commercially, but if it is, I'm interested.

Just do a Google search and you'll probably find more stuffs.

Of course theres rom dumpers for the SNES.
Quite a few in fact, theres the Super UFO drive and some others. They mostly use floppy disks, problem with this is special chip games won't run. Still, you get a funky BIOS and stuff. One had a type of savestate system as well as a bulit in cheat cartride (PAR, Game Genie and Gold Finger)

You see people using EPROMs more often because of the chip support. For example, the only way to have the Final Bulid of Starfox 2 playable is to "borrow" Yoshis Islands super FX2 chip. Thats all I randomly know.

As for GBA games I geuss they use WORMT carts as I remember the re-writable flash carts being sold at insane prices ($200 for 32MB your better off buying the games!).

Where may I find some of these mystical things?

Oh, and happy 600th, by the way.

He's not trying to "dump" roms; he's trying to do the exact opposite, by putting game information onto a chipset that can fit inside a cartridge.
