lol I wonder if Krikzz has a bet he will place?:-)

Actually It seems like Krikzz has been putting these things out so fast maybe he will take a short break?

I will buy a Gameboy emulation cart from you Krikzz.

(just please, as long as it is not PlayStation :crying:)

It will be NES. That seems the most logical in the path of the ones already made.

Either that or he's going to do a PCE or GBA one which plays game from all 3 gameboys.

I do know one thing. After the success of his first lot of DSP-1 Supers I reckon he may make that the default version of the Super in the future to go against the Powerpak which in turn is good for business if he can make it the default that is due to the speed of the ED's being good but depending on if he has the same amount of chips as the people at Powerpak headquarters do.

If anyone can do it, I think Krikzz can.

GBA flash cart with microSd and sdhc support would be super cool... And if it support GB and GBC games... That would be a dream!

Of course it's about popularity to a large extent. If he makes a product to sell, he needs a user base to buy it. Gameboy/GB Color sold almost 120 million units worldwide. Previous ED's were for Genesis (40 million), Master System (13 million), Game Gear (11 million and same SW as SMS), SNES (49 million), and N64 (33 million). NGP sold about 2 million only, WonderSwan I think maybe a million, though all in Japan, and Virtual boy just 770K. With those three I wonder if it's simply better to make a all in one cart, that has all the games (no SD card), since there are so few games?

Now technical challenges make things like an NES or TG/PCE cart maybe more difficult, or maybe not. Believe it or not, something like the Atari 2600 is not very easy to program for with a flash cart (there's also currently an option produced by members of the fairly tight knit and wide-spanning 2600 community - Harmony). What I will say is that those low-selling handhelds are probably far more feasible for Krikzz to do than the past suggestions for modules that replaced the disc-laser reader in systems like PS1, Gamecube, Xbox, etc.

Those already exist, and can be purchased for less than $40.

Last I heard, GB/GBC was on his list, unless he changed his mind. Frankly it's the only platform he's said he would consider in the near future.

honestly i does not want to make any new carts right now. currently i just want to do something for my own fun

I know that there is flash card solutions with sdhc for Ds, but I did not know they will work with GBA? :P

**Greg2600** · 06-28-2011

Look up something called EZFlash IV, it uses mini-SD, not sure about SDHC support, but it works perfectly for GBA games.

**derekb** · 06-28-2011

edit nevermind I meant ez4lite

unrelated if you have a DS, I recommend an Acekard with EZ4Lite, you can sideload GBA into the EZ4's NOR memory directly from within AKAIO

**derekb** · 06-28-2011

KRIKzz should create a beer serving bot for his personal project

**Teancum** · 06-28-2011

lol I win the bet!

Actually It seems like Krikzz has been putting these things out so fast maybe he will take a short break?

In all seriousness though it makes sense to me that he might just want to work on something that he's not going to constantly get hammered with questions and features.

Well, he chose the wisest option, doing nothing at all for some time

Krikzz, if you ever want to develop new Everdrives and consider doing one of the systems on my "wishlist" (NGPC, VB or WSC), I'll send you one (or all) of those consoles!
