I'm trying to think.... I don't specifically remember any significant dimming on my pocket with my EMS cart. Which backlight are you using? Also the EMS carts have gone through several revisions, maybe they increased power efficiency? My EMS cart is from 2010 or 2009 I think, so it's fairly old.

Either way, the 32k cart should use as little power as possible. The datasheet for the eeprom says it only uses 12mA, so basically nothing. I would be shocked if it caused dimming at all.

Hey, sorry, I should specify that shouldn't I? I mention it in the video I posted in OP, but I realized I never actually wrote it down.

Glad they got to you safe though! Thanks for the feedback!

Looks awesome! Can't wait to play!

Yeah wav works fine for me in wine. BGB gets super laggy but the sound is fine.

Not to mention there are tons of subtle variations even between the model 1 and 2. Generally the "HD Graphics" model 1 is praised for it's sound, but there's also two variations of that, with one sounding better than the other.

End of the day though, who will ever know? I am 99% confident nobody could tell a difference between models just by listening to it.

For video, the FM has a RF output. Otherwise you need an RGB monitor or some kind of device that can take RGB inputs like the Framemeister. Aside from that, LGR on youtube has a pretty good overview:

Are you interested in trades? FWIW, I think your pricing is just fine.

The initial batch sold out a while back. The good news is that they are now back in stock! And even better, they're gold plated now! Snatch em up while they're hot

keytar gone!

The 8-bit Guy did a little video review of this on Youtube. He really barely scratches the surface, but it's cool to see all the same! Check it out

15 shipped!? Those ain't light my boy.

Eh, I picked it up cheap from the thrift. I'd rather have it go to someone who will use it than some video game resale store or the garbage.
