Looking to ROM dump just a handful of games, so I’m trying not to spend hundreds on a Sanni or Retrode. I saw this on AliExpress for $15.
I’ve personally had good luck with Alibaba and Aliexpress, but I recognize that this could just straight not work. There’s no documentation, but it claims the game data will show up like files on a USB flash drive.
Anybody know where this design came from?
N64 cartridges rely on a battery inside it to keep the storage alive, and all those batteries are likely all dead now, so there will be no stored game in there any more
I have a super Mario world cart that has retained its save data. 20 years old now…pretty nuts
My OG Legend of Zelda cart (NES) still has working saves on it with the original battery…
Stop making me sad. I have hundreds of hours poured into VPW2 customizations on a cart that hasn’t been powered up in 20 years at least. In my heart, that save is still alive.
Don’t take this from me dammit.
