I bet...damn lot of gba games out there. Did you take any pics of the cart in various GBAs? Personally I love that it is reminiscent of Boktai because it'll match my Boktai GBAsp.
Yep, I'll show a pic of the cart in every GBA model ever released ;) (big fan of the GBA, I own them all)

EDIT: Tested Shantae, slows down as usual in Goomba Color.

Yeah its my all time favorite game console. In my opinion the only thing the system lacked was a legit survival horror game. I wpuld be happy if someone translated/patched Silent Hill Play Novel or Ghost Trap. Sadly no one seems to have.

I expected as much from Shante...its cool...Ill just keep using my GB Everdrive.

For anyone on the edge about this, it might be worth waiting a few more months, as a 'premium' version sounds like it's going to be released:

I'm still excited for the review, I can't imagine there's a whole lot more to add but at this point I might hold my breath a little.

Sweet!
I might eventually get an Everdrive GBA and retire all of me GBA flashcards.
Probably display them in a case or something.
send me them or get me a gba everydrive as a gift for being your trustworthy gbatemp friend :wub::wub: and make me up for the bad m3 you sold me? :C

Double sided pcb so it fits in a normal size case. Can't see what else can be added.

No idea, other than rumble+tilt there's nothing really significant left out.

Also, for @raulpica there's since been a new os released for it that helps with the compatibility http://krikzz.com/forum/index.php?topic=5410.0

all of that
and cheat features
real time save (the m3 had it so why not everydrive)
multiple save features (other m3 feature)
compatibility with gba exploader so we can use borders on the ds(lite) :wub::wub:

All everdrives have Gameshark support as a general rule. Don't know if this one does, but that's most likely more of a software thing.

It works but I told you about the corrupted memory issue/bad memory issue, there are several games that don't work because of that, but they do work on others people m3 :(

Firmware update?
Card formatted differently?

99$ for a f****g GBA R4? :unsure:

Difference between an Everdrive and an R4 is that the R4 is complete shit quality with no support.

my R4 works since 2009

So does me mums DSTT.
Doesn't change the fact that it's still an unsupported and cloned cart.

Original manufacturer has long abandoned it and the only way it received updates was via reverse engineering.

Nay, psram got bad sectors, trust me tried everything to fix it and troubleshooting.. Injecting a ROM into cart and verifying it most data is alright but there is a small. Area that doesn't match..Most games work but some don't even launch..
I wish I could somehow solder a new psram chip to fix it.. But I don't know where I could find such chip..

You pay for the quality including the assurance of firmware updates + any repairs might the card not work.
You're not forced to purchase the card you know.
