Has anyone tried one of these?

It looks awfully tempting since there's no way most of us can get our hands on those rare PC-Engine games. It would be nice to have 60 of them all on one cart. The website is a bit sketchy on details though.

If that's for real it sure does look cool.

I've got one of TotoTEKs PCE flash cards and it is really handy

[Bruce Tomlin]

It would be even cooler yet if it supports both PCE and TG16 consoles, with their silly data line swap as a region lockout. From the looks of that web page, it actually does.

[zombiecraig]

Someone buy one. Then let me know how it is. If I had more funds currently, I would be all over that. I just blew my wad on the ColecoVision multi.

I hate to bump this... but has anyone tried this yet? I am thinking about buying it. Just curious as to which Flash cart is the best for the TG Express I have. I already have a converter to play the PCE games.... but I thought this would be really cool.

Any suggestions as to a flash cart would be greatly appreciated.

[EricDeLee]

Well... thus far I'm leaning towards getting this Flash cart.... It really looks amazing. It is roughly the same size as HU Cards, and isn't ugly like the other one I saw where you use scotch tape as protection. This thing actually has a label and everything.

Pretty intriguing...

Look at the photos next to a GT system...






It states that the card works with the Turbo Express (US version) as well... and I'm really starting to consider this. Has anyone bought one and have an opinion of it? I can't seem to find a review of it anywhere. I would hate to be a 'test subject' but I just may for this item.... If I get this I'll write a full review. Let me know about your current flash carts though.... I'd like to hear about them as well


Thank you

[EricDeLee]

Am I reading things right? It can be used on the Gameboy Advance as well? Wow....

[SteveW]

I'm having a hard time reading the page, the site is rendered so badly it's next to impossible to read.

That forum has a lot of info.....

Still sketchy. I'm thinking about taking a chance though.

I suspect the GBA connector is to load data via the USB slim loader.
My tototek flash cart also has a gba connector and uses an external gameboy flasher to load data onto the flash cart.

This looks like a huge improvement over my tototek monstrosity.

[EricDeLee]

I'm ordering one today....

I'll give a report later....

[yuppicide]

I will buy one on my next paycheck (Aug 18th). So, if Eric gets it first he'll give you his report.. otherwise I will. It does support TG-16. I have been wanting to design something like this for years.

Now that this is out I'd like to see one for the Sega Master System.

i SENT AN ORDER IN... IT WILL BE COMING FROM hong kong... yIKES

[Jagasian]

The same company makes GBA and DS flash carts, and they are developing SNES, Genesis, and N64 flash carts that are supposed to be released sometime in the near future.

[Spector]

I'd love to see an NES flash cart. Seems an obvious one to do what with its massive popularity.

[EricDeLee]

The PCE FLASH Cart arrived TODAY in Michigan. I am not there right now and won't be until the 3rd of Sept. I will post a review after I play around with it.

Thus far: I was happy the shipping was fast. I bet they have some in a warehouse somewhere here in The States....

[Dusk2600]

This looks really neat, i look foreward to hearing how it is Eric...

[remowilliams]

Their cart looks cool. If it's really that good, I may sell my Tototek card and get this one. I'd also love to see an N64 flash card. I've got a Z64 unit (which is very cool) but a flash cart would be handy!

YES! I'm glad someone decided to take the splash. You've got to let me know how this is. I would love to get one of these, as well. Well...as long as the quality is decent...

[yuppicide]

Wonder if it'll work on the TG Express..

[Spector]

Forgive me for bumping, but has EricDeLee tested the flash cart yet?

[yuppicide]

Learn to read the thread?! In a previous message he states:

"I am not there right now and won't be until the 3rd of Sept. I will post a review after I play around with it."

Help me - I'm burning!

[EricDeLee]

I was told that it will work on the Express... that is why I got it. Anyways... I leave for Michagan (for good this time) on Sat. I will try to test it on Sunday... but there aren't any guarantees that I'll get to it. I will within the next week or so.
