Hey guys,
I am just days away from getting my repo boards in....actually adapter boards.   I've just tested it for the Zelda AST 2mB and 4 mB versions (see videos in the thread.  http://www.nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&am...  

It uses the reset button to cycle through the games.  Got questions, just ask.  

What're you planning on charging for them, Mark?
I'm still undecided on what to charge. My initial thoughts are. $10 for a bare board and $20 assembled.  I'm still mulling this over....
For the record, sockets/header-sockets are not necessary.  If you know that the game you want is a good program, then you can just solder it in.  I designed this so that all it would take for a minimum amount of effort is to solder1 or 2 jumpers sets, install rom(s) and mount to host cartridge.  That's about it.  If you want the multigame setup, then it's just a matter of burning your rom(s) properly (I use WinHex) and bridging some solder jumpers.  And if you really want to dive in, with just a little more effort, you can configure the SRAM on certain host carts to hold the save data for each of the 4 possible game roms...  I'll post a video of this too.... An example could be 4 different Super Mario type games (hacks) all having their own save states or a Donkey Kong country Quad -- DKC1,2,3 & competition all in 1 cart each retaining their own save progress.
believe it or not, but I'll be videoing a cart with my adapter that has Earth Bound, SoM2, bahmut lagoon, and Terranigma...each with their own saves.
anyways..... Will just be a few more days before the boards arrive.

thanks

No, my adapter can hold all 4 roms.  So 1 cartridge.  You have to have them all on 1 cart, otherwise the save ram wouldn't transfer from 1 cart to the other.  The trade off, however, is that you can't use the sockets.  They all have to be hard soldered on the adapter.  I'll be posting pic's of this soon.  Boards are scheduled to arrive in a handful of days now. Fantastic! Looking forward to ordering them.

I've gotten both things from him in mail just today and I'm quite pleased. Recommended if you've been looking for these things for a bit. ]]>

I'm finishing a little manual and this:


When you actually finish, and if you make an NTSC version... I will buy a copy of your Stone Tablets. Please keep me informed. ]]>
