A question about flashcards

[Nando]

So I know about the ever drives for the main 16bit systems, what are other brands worth looking into?

Tips, suggestions?

[Necromancer]

I don't know about other systems, but there's just two worth considering for the Turbob: gameofyou's card or the everdrive.  Both work well and are relatively easy to use; the former holds only one title at a time (and no SFII) but the price is right, and the latter holds lots of games at once but costs more.

The neoflash and tototek ones just aren't worth the hassle.

Thanks Necro!

I have both the NES and SNES Powerpaks and they are excellent. Saving is a bit quirky but not difficult once you get the hang of it. I got them both used/like new on eBay for around $100.

Everdrive for the genesis and snes are worth it.Though if you have the cash a mega-everdrive or the SD2SNES are fine.I don't have a opinion on the snes or nes powerpak though,when i heard about there flaws i avoided them.

I saw that Mega-ever drive. Seems like a really solid product but I'm finding it hard to justify the price when compared to the Everdrive-MD.

The newest entry level Mega Drive/Genesis Everdrive narrows the margin from the deluxe version. Unless you're hardcore into Genesis, there isn't much need to pick the deluxe version over the new basic one.

The Master Everdrive is great, but again only for the hardcore (just stick to the Mega Everdrive to play SMS games).

The Game Gear Everdrive is much more valuable, as no other hardware runs GG games and it has exclusives with fan translations (like Shining Force Gaiden III).

All flashcarts have flaws. The Powerpaks had their major flaws fixed with updates.

Thanks BT!

Has to do with how to save on the powerpak so i never bother with either.

I believe that auto-saving was added a while back.

Where are you buying it from?

[Mathius]

Here:

or here:

Problem with Stone Age Gamer is they are usually sold out of the nice deluxe editions.
