I LOVE IT!

cant get my ducktales to work though. gonna try with a friends and see whats up. everything else from my collection has worked flawlessly.

we even beat Guerrilla War to celebrate Castro's death!

Obligatory green strip question.
 

It says Tecmo Bowl isn't compatible when I go to check the high scores of the game.  Am I missing something?

What country are you in? Are you playing on cartridge or flash cartridge?
 

Is Track and Field turned back on yet?

I'm in the US.  I just got an Everdrive N8 in the mail yesterday.  It played Tecmo Bowl fine, but wouldn't recognize it for scoring.  It's also had problems with both Mike Tyson's Punchout and regular Punchout.  It freezes the system when I select either game.  More specifically it gives me a grey screen during the freeze.
 

Love it. So much.
Got mine toward the end of October, and I've played something on it just about every single day.

For the last year or so, I've gotten more and more interested in going the Framemeister/RGB route, but couldn't really justify that level of spending (this year, anyway). I ordered one of these as soon as I started seeing positive impressions. I think it's a wonderful alternative, if NES is one of your primary interests.

Looking for more information on it led me to NA... which led to the "Can NA beat" threads... which led me to re-start my own internal "games beaten" checklist... which has pretty much consumed all of my hobby time for the last 6 weeks.

So, yeah, I'm getting a lot out of it.

edit: Also, haven't had any issues with AVS + Everdrive. Maybe 2-3 freezes across many, many hours.

We tested with regular cartridge and Powerpak. Not sure what to tell you!

I'd suggest you try the following:
1) Format the SD card
2) Copy the newest EDFC firmware/OS over from a fresh download from krikzz
3) Use a rom set like the smokemonster rom set which is more curated and more likely to be a known/good. (google it and you'll find where to download it)

 

nope. doesnt do anything at all. 
 

No, he means is there a green mask strip on the edge of the pins. Take a flashlight and see if you can see it. Or alternatively, open the cart and look at the pin edges.

 

Return it as not as described. He puts Everdrive in the auction title, uses it in the imagry and in the description. 
Fact is it's not an everdrive and he knows it.

For the amount they sell it for you can get a genuine one from stoneagegamer.com
 

Are the ones sold by Retrogate legit Everdrive N8 carts?  Just like the type sold by stoneage gamer?  Just want to make sure whatever I buy next is compatible with the AVS.

 

Anyone on this list here is legit https://krikzz.com/store/content/...
 

Why not get one direct from Krikzz?

Edit: too slow.  

Thank you very much for the list. I'm impatient, which is the reason I want it asap, but also the reason I was a dummy and bought a clone by mistake. I don't like to wait, but I'd rather wait then buy a fake elsewhere. I'd assume shipping from Krikzz takes a long time.  But buying directly from him is probably the most safe option to know I have a legit product.

Krikzz says they ship 15-20 days.

Any of those will have the real thing if you want it a little faster.

^ as Tulpa said any of those stores in that list will send you a legit everdrive.

In the US use stoneagegamer.com to get it the fastest.
In Canada use http://www.gamersection.ca/...

You don't have your location set on your NA profile Dr. Graffin so I don't know where you should order from specifically.

Or you could just buy a retroUSB PowerPak to match your retroUSB AVS   Won't even have to worry about fakes or compatibility!

Stone age gamer shipped fast to me in the US. Maybe 3-4 days?

I ended up going with Stoneage Gamer.  Got to pick some custom cart colors.  Thanks for the suggestions and information everyone.

 

Bought a legit Tecmo Bowl and it worked like a charm.  Thanks for adding that.  I think I just played nearly a perfect game to get to 63 points.
 

I recently got a Raspberry Pi just to test it out. I always hear people telling me to get one instead of just having a collection of carts. I said it was cheap, why not see what its all about? Well I can already notice a big difference in input lag compared to the AVS using the same TV, both HDMI. I don't like playing without scan lines and if I add any effects or borders it just increases the lag. I'll be returning mine and stick with the NES king. I don't see how this is the ultimate retro gaming experience when I have played with the AVS. I really appreciate what Bunnyboy was able to do with the device now.

I am happy with the AVS. It has gotten me back into NES collecting, a hobby i had to abandon a couple of years ago due to bad financial problems.

I haven't run into any problems with it yet, but I also got mine in December; wife bought it for me for Xmas. Overall, it's really nice.
