    For sale is a little project that I have been working on for the past two years. Thankfully I had help from many different people without whom I would not have gotten so far.

    Wow, do you know of any other projects which can rewrite sfmemory carts? I'd have grabbed this just for that

    He has the files and instructions on how to build one. This saves me a lot of time dumping some protos I have.
    I don't own anything modern that can back up SNES carts.

    Damn, I'd have liked to have this, and it's gone to the guy with a warehouse full of stuff like this! Anyway, great job on making this. I'll take a look at the source code but I wouldn't know how to construct the hardware... Suppose I could try it.

    I can make another run if there is enough interest but it will take at least a month or two. I would love to read/write N64 dev carts but they seem kinda expensive.:oops:

    That would be awesome if you could! I'd try to make this myself but I'm afraid I'd mess something up since I'm only a software guy...

    To be honest there is nothing better than having another software guy for an open source project. :)
    I'll just write you a private message once I made some more.

    I really do hope you do another run. I'm very thankful that you've contributed the source/manufacturing files to the public, but it's even better when an assembled unit can be purchased.

    I like my Retrode, but having a variety of dumping tools available seems like money well spent. Plus, I don't have a N64 adapter for the Retrode and this seems a little more fleshed out when it comes to N64 ROMs/Saves.
