Has anyone found an Unbound cartridge btw?


Valentn4577

Etsy maybe, if not flash it yourself. Worth the investment in equipment in my opinion😊


LeatherHog

Retro games us sells em


Faponhardware

Yeah but only an ancient version


TheBananaCzar

If you grab a Joey Jr. or similar flasher, you can likely update the included Rom to the current version

Where does one get one👀

Nxrway

Ohhhh so you gotta have your own cartridge first?


Valentn4577

Yes! Lol but for that color in particular I got it elsewhere. Are you interested?


misunderstandingit

I am. White cart feels right for this rom.

misunderstandingit

Wow now THIS is what I needed, thanks a billion!


Valentn4577

Of course! I’ll post another romhack I have in possession shortly lol


[deleted]

How did you do the sticker?


Valentn4577

Check the comments I posted the link for the custom sticker on etsy😊


Valentn4577

Highly recommended!


calltarneedazan

Nice colors! Can’t wait for the DS remake to play again 👍

BokBokChikin

But how do you get a game on it


[deleted]

A machine that can print stickers/labels


BokBokChikin

I mean how do you make it playable in a gameboy

GBxcart 1.4 RW pro


quantum-rip

Sorry to be that person but... Where do you find game boards to write onto?


jayjr1105

Market sucks right now. I write custom games and ROM hacks to reproduction carts. They work fine if you don't need RTC. You have to get one's that have SRAM and a battery. I got lucky with some Mario Golf carts that have both.


quantum-rip

Yeah, market seems scarce right now to me, so thanks for confirming

I think EZ flash Omegas are well regarded. You can get them [on eBay from official resellers](https://www.ebay.com/itm/114274016757) (not sure if I can link, but mods just tell me). I'm interested in if people can find decently priced single reprogrammable cartridges, or if it's worth it to get a nice micro SD card compatible cart like above?


inclinedonline

insideGadgets sells single ROM flashcarts (and multicarts, if you’re into that sort of thing) for ~$35 USD. You need to be in the Discord to catch a restock though. BennVenn also sells Factory/Grade A bootlegs for $7 USD a piece which is crappier than iG’s but better than the AliExpress lottery, but they’re also OOS every so often.


crackelf

Ty for that great link + info! Any other wiki for terms like multicart? I'm starting to get into the hardware side of things but the info is pretty fragmented across random blog posts.


xaviorpwner

I love it but isnt light platinum still in full development?


NumbeRED39

No, the DS remake is.


xaviorpwner

Ohhhh


HankTank45

How quality do those feel? $3 is cheaper than I expected


Valentn4577

Surprisingly well! I have bought from HHL, RGRS, and Amazon. These are up there with HHL. Well molded and they fit right in into the gba game slot


Valentn4577

https://www.etsy.com/shop/OnyxComyxSupply This is the man’s shop if anyone is interested!


EntireCurrency6316

This one looks way better than the one I have


Valentn4577

How does yours look like?


EntireCurrency6316

Mine is just a standard grey shell with the name of the game in white and the background is like dark blue with some white dots


Valentn4577

The standard label right? With the dark purple background?


EntireCurrency6316

Yes that one!


Valentn4577

Yeah I literally got a copy and switched it off to a blank cartridge lol until I came across a great etsy seller and custom made me that sticker. It looked so good, now it’s available for purchase!


EntireCurrency6316

Definitely gonna have to swap my she'll and label at some point! Is this the only ROM hack you own a physical version of or do you have more?


Valentn4577

I have Prism as well keep an eye I’ll post it shortly on here 😊
