Tototek flash carts

[David J.]

Any where in the US where I can purchase one?

I *really* crave a SMS one, only wish it was 64MB, and a Genesis one would be nice.

Think about it, the entire SMS library at your fingertips. Only one game doesn't work with the SMS - F16, but I'm sure you could hack it to work. Same for the SG-1000 games too.

EDIT: Wrong forum... sorry.

umm, im not sure if you moved it or anything...

but yeah, you can get it off their website of course. They ship to america, it just takes a freaking long ass time to get here that is all.

I will say their website is really annoying to surf around and it constantly asks to install the jap fonts (if you don't have them and don't want them) despite it being in freaking english. But yeah they ship here and stuff.

there it is

Though if all you want is a SMS cart and you have some soldering skill you can build one out of an old cart. Certain ones are easiest like "after burner" that is the one I built mine out of.

go to http://www.smspower.org/smsreader/
That shows you how to make a reader writer and at the bottom there are links to the full tutorial along with links to makin 128K and 256K carts for a very reasonable price.

The reader writer of course can also be used for dumping and backing up the carts you own.

Actually, Tototek makes a SMS one too. I was just wondering how reliable they are.

You realise Tototek measure the size of their carts in MegaBITs, right? That's why their '64Mb' carts only hold about four or five ROMs, you should see the angry posts on their forum. XD

The real size of the '32M' cart (http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=32+megabits+in+megabytes&meta=)

I'd only put a few games on it really. I'll unzip the roms and see if I can wing it. XD

It's the users own damn fault for not knowing the difference of bits and bytes...

just remember

8 bits to a byte
