Also, not quite related to the topic but, I've seen it mentioned that the Nintendo M8 had socketed chips, that it'd be not overly difficult to switch out the on-board games for others, is that true? That's right!  Every M8 game is in sockets on one massive multicart that plugs into a standard NES board.  There is a set of DIP switches that picks the mirroring for each game.  The only restriction for swapping out games is the new one has to be NROM only.

I think the closest thing to an M82 for SNES would be something like this...

...Unfortunately, though, it takes special cartridges (from the pics, they look to be almost the size of a Neo-Geo cartridge o_O ).

Edit:  Evidently, the second version takes regular cartridges.

One ended on ebay this summer or early fall. I think it ended for like 600 or so.

So cheaper than the M82 for sure ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=5&threadid=93094 2013-01-15T00:12:46 -05.00 Zwario 18 http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=5&threadid=93094 2013-01-09T13:27:06 -05.00 Zwario 18
