Super FX and DSPx: yes (as of my own testing). In general, as long as the special chip doesn’t do some weird memory mapping or data decoding, it should not be a problem. The few titles using the SA-1 and S-DD1, on the other hand, are pretty likely to cause serious trouble.

Wow, that’s really impressive! Congratulations on the project! :)

Question though, does it run special chip powered cartridges?

It’s not that bad, just a few hundred EURs (well, that’s still a lot :-/). The superexpensive FCC testing won’t be necessary before the very day the snega2usb gets shipped.

Damn that’s a bummer, how much did it cost again? Like over 1000 euros? Damn! I hope you can get some money back. At least so you can invest in some fine deutschland product ;)

Hi,
thats why you should look for producing in Germany or in Europe even if its more expensive its better Quality ;)

I hope this is “good” China Quality :D

Meh. I’m not too happy with the quality. So far, I have only tried 2 out of 5 fully assembled units, and one of them has problems with the wiring (interrupted connections from the microcontroller to the SEGA slot). In conclusion, you don’t want to know where I ordered these prototypes ;-)

Hi,
here ist Deniz I wrote you a E-Mail when the SNEGA Name Contest was ;)
And I tried to help you with the SRAM thing.
Man you are so fast!!
Could you say me where you ordered these Prototypes?
I hope this is “good” China Quality :D
