Interesting. I guessential the only difference with this one is the 4mb ram? Which is used for what exactly? Could someone explain that for me please.
The 4MB (megabyte) RAM completely replaces the 8MB (megabyte) flash on the TurboEd V1.
The theoretical advantage is that starting a new game is almost instant in comparison to the V1's delay to write the flash.
You also won't have to worry about the flash wearing out (which is pretty unlikely, anyway).
That's the big change ... it means that the TED2 can now run Populous, and probably also Tennokoe Bank.
Not a
major improvement for current game players ... but it's a pretty big thing for homebrew and translation developers. It wouldn't surprise me to see either the TED2 or the Stupid Card begin to be required for some future SuperCD translations.
Moving the USB port to the center of the card is great for anyone wanting to do SuperGrafx homebrew.
It krikzz's first card to use a new modern low-power 3.3 volt FPGA architecture.
He's already warned that the "Cart may not work properly with region modded systems".
That's probably because of the same signal delay issue that TailChao has reported during his Stupid Card development.
If we do a group buy, last time I ordered all the same which was without the usb thing. I could look into having only 1 or a few of the orders being the usb, I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem, just a heads up.
It looks like he doesn't care exactly which combination of products you order ... just as long as you get over the dollar amount.
