Is anyone else still waiting on theirs arriving? I ordered mine back on the 5th of October, sent him an email in November and was told it would ship early December, Sent him another email around Xmas asking for a status update though am still waiting on a reply.
For all I know it's on its way but taking a while due to shipping times between US and UK, though I didn't receive an email saying it had been sent.
For anyone that's considering installing a 6105 CIC, I've done a bit of research and come up with this list of games containing 6105's (I'm assuming the PAL copies have the PAL equivalent, but I didn't actually look that up):
Banjo-Tooie
Donkey Kong 64
Jet Force Gemini
Legend of Zelda - Majora's Mask
Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time
Mickey's Speedway USA
Perfect Dark
So, looks like the best game to take it from without sacrificing a good game would be Mickey's Speedway USA. Amazon has it for

No problem, just make sure you dremel out holes for the USB port which is needed for updating the firmware and bootloader, and the menu is "updated" from a CF cartridge, or microsd. If you're intent on using microsd though, I recommend you come up with some creative way to access the port so you can easily remove the microsd chip. Microsd was more of an afterthought for the 64drive, since CF is the superior media and marshall was intent on using it (Note: I didn't say SD couldn't be "effective," CF is just better all the way around in my opinion)
The only true plus to SD is it's cheaper than CF, usually.. Depending on where you buy your media though, it can get expensive, it's crazy. They'll have 4 GB CF carts for nearly 40 dollars at Walmart, it made me chuckle that the local Walmart likes to jack the prices up on every electronic (Thank Talos for Newegg)

Nah, no need for USB holes, I have a gamebit. It takes like 10 seconds to take apart (and how often will I *really* need to update the bootloader?). Same for the MicroSD, I can't see adding games after the initialdownloaddumping spree... which really just leaves menu updates, which still isn't that often to need to take the 10 seconds to open the cart. A small price to pay for having a nice, clean cart without any holes. As for MicroSD vs CF, what difference does it really make other than speed? I really don't care if it takes an extra couple seconds to do something, my prerogative right now is that having a CF card sticking out the top of the cart is not better (for me) than having a fully-enclosed cart with internal MicroSD, unless there are other downsides besides speed?
Also, another question. To anybody that has gotten their 64Drive, how long did it take after you placed your order? I get that it takes awhile, I'd just like a ballpark idea so I have some idea what to expect...
