Fine ;) I don't know if it's the right forum section to do so, but anyway...

I'm a 37 old French guy, software engineer for a living, and I've always been interested in electronics and retro-computing.
Since a few years, I've done various electronics and FPGA-related projects, as you can see on my website : http://torlus.com/
My latest project is the hardware emulation of the Sega Genesis in a FPGA, see here : http://torlus.com/index.php?2010/07/14/236-fpgagen-a-sega-genesis-megadrive-clone-in-a-fpga.

Now I want to get a flashcard, as I'd like to enhance/fix what I've already done, and it seems the right tool to test stuff on the real hardware ;)
I'm also a friend of kroustibat, that's him that informed me about this deal.

Well....I'm going to stick out my neck here.

The only reason why I bought a Super Nintendo (a long time ago, but it was when the system was already pretty aged) from a young boy at a "Queen's day fair" was to play Super Mario World.

I haven't played many other games on that system, but to me, this seems to be THE game for that system.

In fact, it's still my favorite Super Mario game to date. On any system. It even comes in 2nd place to DK arcade in my "favorite games" list.....

But I probably missed out on a zillion great games....

Great offer and anyone slightly interested should jump aboard IMHO. However, I have to point my wallet in other directions at the moment...

 :) The SNES is indeed a great system, with tons of great games, be it platform games, SHMUP games or other genres. And especially some Japanese Super Famicon games are among the best games ever made. Unfortunately they can be very pricy, + $600 (for a boxed game, meaning the cartridge, the manual and the box!!).

SNES / Super Famicon is probably the best 16bit gaming system around, although Sega fans will not agree.  ;D

OK guys, good news. I now have 13 orders in total for the MD and SNES carts, so the deal is on.  :D

I will send the members involved a PM in a couple of days with the request to send me the money asap and to give me address details.

By the way, I was in contact with the maker of the cards today, and he is also willing to offer the Sega Master Everdrive cart for the discount price of  $66 (same as MD Everdrive). For details about this cart, see: http://krikzz.com/mseverdrive.html

If anyone is interested in the mastercart (as well) then please come forward within a few days.  :)

Does it matter if you have a NTSC SNES?
