DRAGONBOX RETRODE SOFTWARE

I tried out the Retrode on a collection of Super Famicom games. It seems others had better luck (Mike from NESPlayers dumped this prototype of Stone Protectors with a Retrode). My buddy had a prototype of Road Rash, but didn't have the same luck. I had a copy of Phantasy Star III to test on the Retrode, and it seemed to work fine. Of course, the Retrode also allows you to copy games and saves to your hard drive, making this a great device for backing up your games.ДЄs a big SNES fan, it might not come as a surprise I don't have much in the way of Genesis games.

Using a properly configured emulator, you can even use the SRAM that is right on the cart. This solid piece of hardware makes things easy on the user end of things by mounting the carts as a mass storage device. Matthias_H has created a new alternative, which he calls the Retrode.

Thanks to skaar for letting me use his Retrode and access to his SFC collection!ДЇor many years, if you wanted to play SNES games on your computer, you either had to resort to downloading ROM images off the Internet, or buy a bulky copier from Asia (most of which require serial cables or floppy disks).

DRAGONBOX RETRODE SOFTWARE

The Game Boy Interface homebrew Gamecube software for running the Game Boy Player can dump GBA games and saves, but it's slow and I've had problems with a lot of games.Email: Retrode, made by Matthias_H, is a nifty device that allows you to play SNES and Genesis games on your computer. Similarly, the Super Nt can dump SNES games, even SA1 chip games. The Analogue Nt Mini FPGA NES console (with custom firmware) can dump NES games, but it's rather expensive if that's all you would use it for.

DRAGONBOX RETRODE UPDATE

I haven't seen an update on this in over a year.ДЇor GB/GBC/GBA, there's the oddly-named Joey-Joebags. It looks like it's not in a very user-friendly state currently, with dumping software only available for NES/Famicom and SNES, and what software there is doesn't look super user-friendly. The INLretro programmer-dumper is the successor to the Kazzo and has connectors for NES/Famicom, SNES, Game Boy, GBC, GBA, Genesis, and N64. If you're only interested in NES/Famicom, the Kazzo was an NES dumper. I haven't used one myself but it sounds more capable than the Retrode. It can read NES games, SNES games and saves including SA1 chip games, N64 games and N64 saves (both cartridge and controller pak), Game Boy games and saves, Game Boy Color games and saves, GBA games and some types of GBA saves, Genesis games and saves, (some?) Master System games, and TG16 games. If you're the DIY type and building something with Aruduino sounds fun, there's the Sanni cart reader project.

Amazon doesn't seem to have this in stock anymore, maybe it's discontinued? Like the Retrode, the Super UFO cannot dump games that use the SA1 chip. Most games don't care about those bytes but notably, Actraiser does. Unfortunately it mangles the first 8 bytes of the file when backing up.

It doesn't emulate special chips like the SD2SNES does, but if you put a matching cartridge on it while playing a ROM from the SD card, you can play games that use DSP chips (Mario Kart, Pilotwings) and the Cx4 chip (Mega Man X2 and X3). It's a SNES flash cart and dumper in one.

If you're only interested in SNES, there's the Super UFO Pro 8. The Retrode is the best general purpose dumper currently available for sale anywhere. There are several alternatives, but they come with their own drawbacks and limitations. I also see it on stoneagegamer's store but it doesn't look to be in stock right now. I got mine from after waiting a while and checking randomly one time and finding it in stock. The Retrode is still being manufactured and sold, but it can be hard to find in stock.
