You can also do a memory upgrade so it can support games up to 48 mbits, but the cost of it isn't worth it.

I believe Tales of Phantasia, Star Ocean, and a small handful of other games won't run on it. I've have Mario Kart running on it, and Mario RPG. Super Mario RPG is an SA-1 chip game.. you have this running on a Super Wild Card DX?

Also, small correction, you can fit 1.6Mb on a floppy that was formatted to the fullest. Formatting on the SWC also speeds uploading times.
This was perfect for fitting 12 megabit games or combinations (1x 8Mb + 1x 4Mb, or 3x 4Mb games) on a single diskette. A correction to your correction - the SWC can read floppies formatted to 1.72MB. IIRC I used a PC program called FDFORMAT.EXE to format floppies to 1.72MB. Both PC and SWC could read them. Worked on my SWC 2.8CC, DX and DX2.

I'd love having that DX2 if it had a modern card reader. Still they don't do chipped games though. For anyone who doesn't have a nostalgic tie to the old copiers I would just suggest either Krikzz's Super EverDrive or
RetroZone's flashcart, I have a lot of great memories tied to my SMC and SWC otherwise I wouldn't even keep them.

You can do DSP1 and DSP2 roms on the Super Wildcard DX as long as you have a DSP 2 cart in the slot.
I used to use this quite a lot to save tons of Super Mario Kart ghost saves to a floppy.

I ended up just buying the loose carts for the DSP/FX/CPS co-cpu games I cared about.

It loads up to 32mbit games off of floppies, so that wouldnt solve the issue for games that are 48mbit or anything larger than 32. The only way around it is modding it with ram chips to increase the size of its internal memory, which i havent been able to find any resources online for this type of mod. I did think about swapping the fdd drive for a zip or a media card reader of the same interface, though unsure if it work would.
Oops.. Sorry, I forgot about this thread.

What game do you want to play that is actually over 32Mb? I only know of one, Star Ocean (SFC), and it uses a specialized compression math co-processor so it wouldn't work even if you could get it to fit.

The only way you could get the DX to read over 32Mb would be to do some deep BIOS modifying, but no one has ever been able to do this and the only guys that were capable, Fairlight, developed the DX2 instead, so that will be as good as it gets I suppose.

With the DX2 you can load games from a CDRom, hdd, Zip, or Sdcard with adapter and BIOS update. ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=59268 2011-11-17T14:47:40 -05.00 dra600n 14 http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=59268 2011-11-17T11:47:56 -05.00 dra600n 14 http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=59268 2011-11-17T06:49:45 -05.00 dra600n 14
How do you create save states? Is there an in game menu? I'm also wondering if there is a memory upgrade so I can upgrade it to 128 MB instead of 32, so I can play Tales of Phantasia and the decompressed Star Ocean.

What kind of battery should be used? A CR2032 cell battery? ]]>
