I just bought a SuperCart for the Gameboy advance sp (or original) - A UK seller is doing them for £32 delivered on eBay, but I got mine from HK via http://www.minionlinestore.com/ for £30.90.

Basically it takes a secure digital card (or CF if you wish)(512MB SD Amazon- £18) and holds about 100+ games. There are lots of freeware non comercial roms out there which are totally legel and free to download. Or you can download about 2300 comercial roms from the likes of torrentspy.com but obviously you would have purchased an original copy of the rom before you played it or that would be piracy!

So for < £50 (cost of what 2-3 new games) you can play 1000's of games. Needless to say my nethew hasnt lifted his head from the gameboy for the last 2 weeks.

This link doesn't work, but can you tell me how you get one of these? How does an sd card fit into a GBA, or am I being dim?

The supercard is about the size of a normal gameboy cart, you slot the SD card into the supercard, then insert the supercard in to the GBA.

For the supercard - Search Ebay for item# 8253878671 and there is quite a lot of detail there - UK seller £32 Inc postage, never used so cant recommend. The link I posted works for me, might have been down, considering its only £1.10 dearer than coming from Hong Kong, I'd go with the UK seller.

Did I mention you can then also watch movies, view photos, read ebooks and play MP3's on your gameboy!!

Why everone dosnt have one one of these for thier GBA is beyond me.

Thanks Wacko - and yes the link works for me now too

Will try and get my head around how media is transferred now!

Cheers :beer:



Update: I've got it - bit confused about the "Superpass" but looks like a great idea - have a few small capacity cf cards that the kids could make use of. Maybe it will stop them arguing over the one game they both NEED to play at the same time - every time! :wall:

I don't think this should be encouraged on the site as well all know why people buy this device - piracy.

"Or you can download about 2300 comercial roms from the likes of torrentspy.com but obviously you would have purchased an original copy of the rom before you played it or that would be piracy!"

We all know that people downloading these roms don't own the original, as if they did they wouldn't be downloading them. I realise you put this in to cover your back, but it's not fooling anybody. Technically the device isn't illegal, but 99% of people who buy it use it for illegal purposes.

The Superpass is used to enable you to play "homebrew" stuff on the Nintendo DS, using a Gameboy Advance flash cartridge. However, it's far more complicated.
Anyway, I kind-of agree with kmkmkm. This is not the place to discuss flash cartridges. There are plenty of other forums out there if you do a little Googling; better to keep this forum 100% legal!

I realise what you are saying - My kids each have a gameboy and share their games (thats the idea anyway! :wall: ). Being as we own an ORIGINAL version of the game and would just be making a backup copy, I don't think that is piracy - is it? :question:

Anyway, like I said I can't see how to get data off of the original cartridge onto a CF anyway so I won't be going there! I had/have no intention of downloading!
