$150 for the Lords of Thunder vhs tape as well. Sellers like this do zero checking on price, yet come up with such crazy figures. The last one sold on eBay had a BIN price of $24.99, but instead sold to an Offer.

Yeah I agree. I saw the lords of thunder tape as well, and remember seeing a copy of it up for $24.99 shipped a few months back. When I saw the ZOMG RAER in the subject header I had to double-check to make sure that it was the same VHS.

That seller has idiotic prices... but there was one promo tape that was sent out sans label. I have one of the completely blank promo tapes as well.

Haha, that doesn't surprise me that you have one, null Thanks for verifying that this isn't just a copied Memorex tape from Walgreens.

It's not Turbo or eBay, but this is the best example I've yet seen of just how gullible too many repro collectors are:

Imagine how much a custom multi-game cart would cost if it include every game? $50,000?

Lol, that's a great investment compared to like a SD2SNES.

Heh. Yeah, I bought the SD2SNES for $167 total on krik's Black Friday sale in 2014... $144 for that 8-in-1 is a terrible price/value if you're ignorant/unaware of the SD2SNES...

Do those work pretty well? With all the BS extra hardware built into snes carts, I've always been wary of the SNES flashcart.

[NightWolve]

No problems with it that I could see when I tested various games and played Namco's "Wild Guns" at length. The OS is still worked on with possible further support for games that have chips still unemulated.

Main games that are not supported that people care about are "Super Mario RPG" and "Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island," but it pretty much is the best flashcart in terms of support and features.

"Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island"

Sorry to derail the topic, but I might be sold hearing this. Bitching mario baby on a dinosaur is not my favorite game there, so no loss for me, and I have Mario RPG already. If I got one it would be for trying out some of those prohibitively exspensive games like Space Megaforce, or Pokey and Rocky. Thanks!

Edit: Starfox 2! Reading through this makes me a bit disappointed, though not a deal breaker, that some of these games are not compatible, but it's as I expected. There are enough games that are still playable, but these would've been nice to check out.

SuperFX games:
Doom
Star Fox 2
Vortex

SA-1 games:
Kirby’s Dream Land 3
Kirby Super Star
Super Bomberman Panic Bomber World
Super Robot Taisen Gaiden: Maso Kishin – The Lord Of Elemental

S-DD1 games:
Star Ocean (unhacked version)
Street Fighter Alpha 2 / Zero 2

SPC7110 games:
Far East of Eden Zero

How does it compare to http://shop.krikzz.com/Super-EverDrive-v2-SPEDV2.htm?  The comparison link on that page is broken.  What games would use the optional DSP chips?

I bought the SD2SNES because it was the only flashcart available that supports sound rips.

I bought Mario Kart, Yoshi's Island, Mario RPG and something else (Allstars + SMW?) for Super Famicom for like $20 on eBay. Most other chipped SNES/SFC games are not expensive. I've only ever liked Megaman X, so it works out that I don't need to waste money on the sequels.

I was just about to order the Feka everdrive, but maybe this should be on the list.. My TED has not left my console, and it's been so awesome checking out everyone's recommendations here without breaking my wallet or skipping a meal

In the interest of staying on topic, I saw this just now while investigating getting used ED's
