Just interested to find out if anyone has made a ROM cart like the cuttle cart for the 5200.

Thanks,

I presume you mean RAM cart, I did but not in mass quantity just for myself.

Oh, welcome to the board Chris. ;)

The Sean Kelly Multi-Cart has the entire library of games on it, so you could just use that...

I think the interest for such a device is more for homebrewers or people who like to test beta versions of other peoples homebrews on real hardware. Believe me, playing games on an emulator is nowhere near the experience you get playing it on the real thing. The first thing that comes to mind is Millipede played with the trackball.

Just my random thoughts ... :|

The possibility of a 5200 RAM cart was discussed not too long ago in the 7800 forum. Here's the read if you're interested:

Search for '5200' on the page to find my deviant attempt at moving the thread off-topic.
