hey, so ive been out of the cart game loop for a bit, but am wondering what is currently available or what i should be waiting for. i recall there are a few new ones in development etc etc but can't keep track of what where when etc.
i want some new tech carts. what are my options?
Krikzz is doing one, but there's no release date set: http://www.retrocollect.com/News/krikzz … ve-gb.html
there might be other SD based game boy/color carts on the way. I think I recall 2 others were considering or already working on them.
Edit: I think they were kitsch and DaRkO

ive been sort of holding out for SD cart tech because that is white whale holy grail, but i dunno, i dont want to die of old age first
I felt the same way and just picked up another EMS. I still consider a drag n derp when i have the money, but it is more convenient for me to have a bunch of software (including games) in one place. Also that money can be better used on my other projects atm.
not really an helpful comment but...damn we got a lot of choices now compared to when I began in 2006 with low-gain and robbwebb stores !!! Carts are really more reliable too.......and Backlights !!!!
Brought to you by my own personal notes on what's out there:
Non-USB
PROM Cart Kitsch $6.50 or $15 selection varies http://store.kitsch-bent.com/product/ga … -cartridge

^ perfect info. exactly what i was looking for thx
Also keep an eye out for my flasher. While it's not a cartridge, it will be relevant to the market.

I am super eager to see this thing happen.
