No, they don't have to be rewritable.

I just want to know how can I make my own NES cartridges, so I can play a few games that were never released on any readable media system that you can easily find. (Looked through several auction sites, no luck)

You could buy a powerpak. What games specifically are you looking to play?

Oh, you know- timeless classics such as Warehourse 18, Super Mario (fan-translation), and, most importantly, some stupid driving game which isn't even a game!

I want to try doing a review on it, but Dendy games are hard to find. If I even find one that works, lol.

Go contact Bunnyboy at RetroZone or on NintendoAge. I know he sells new cart shells, chips and lockout chips, but I can't remember if he sells boards too. He should be able to help you making your own carts.

... Or you could just buy a PowerPak from him instead.

PowerPak > More than my budget (which probably means I should get a job)

I'll try contacting Bunnyboy, see what both of us can get out of it.
