I searched on ebay & they aint cheap anymore... ppl are really puting these up for 50+ dollars on ebay.. the only other cheap 15-20$ one i found was a copy of the supercard sd without any label. There was another that said it works by passing games directly to the cart via usb with its own adapter but it only works on windows 7 or older & can only fit 2 maybe about 4 games in total depending on game size & it only stirctly works for gba games, no support for emulating nes or gbc or nothing of that sort, just gba.💀

Very interesting to know a little bit about the operation of cpm I'd like to play ladder & pacman. Would it be possible to construct a joystick based on a keyboard connector?
@RetroGameCouch4 күн бұрын
Thank you! As an MS-DOS person the experience of CP/M was very enjoyable. About the joystick; you would have to create something custom that plugs into the keyboard port and simulates the correct keypresses. That seems like a lot of effort for these simple games. But it's possible.

Great console., I know SABA (living in Germany and being half German and half Dutch it's hard to don't know the brand 🙂), but this console is new to me. Awesome to see it working again(*). I like to see you do some soldering and measuring. Gives the videos an extra touch. Keep going, please 🙂. * always crazy how the electric world was different back then. the idea to force a voltage with a single transistor down to the desired voltage and "burn" the left over energy into the heat sink is so far from who we do it today. I have an old Laserdisc player. The "standby" circuit does the same. It literally burns 7V away (huge heat sink under the transistor) to get 5V for standby. The heat sink warms up really quickly. I have my doubts someone should call it "standby" 🙂It's taking about 15 Watts in that state, just to keep the IR receiver active and the standby led on 🙂Anyway, I love these early days.

I'm surprised that you managed to solder the wires to the cartridge port! I tried that once but couldn't get reliable connections because the metal is somehow coated and refuses to connect to the solder and because you can't solder with higher temperatures because of the melting plastic. How did you do that?

I dont remember a Saba-console in Germany. I know some Audio Stuff from Saba. I've been born 79 and my first Console as a Child was the Atari 2600 straight out of Quelle Nürnberg. We were living 1 Hour Drive away and that was a Special day for all of us 3 when my Parents and i get on a Shopping Trip to the City (Nürnberg) . The Grandparents from one of my Friends own a Console to SLOT IN into a Grundig Television. There was a Muti use Slot with s Spring-hinged Door on the right lower side to 1. Put the Remote into (Just for the Tidy Idea) - OR you can also slot the Console into it, and it overrides the TV-Receiver and the TV only shows the Console.

Don't bother buying the EZ Flash Parallel. It has already been abandoned by the developers and it has a serious bug where sleep mode is broken and you can't close the DS lid. The EZ Flash Parallel was hyped up by the big KZfaqrs and it has been quickly forgotten ever since.

I have this card and it works great. Mind you, I'm coming from a 20 year old xrom ezflash card, so it's an upgrade. So you've got a use an app to compile the games, and when you add new games it screws up the order, so you just cut/paste the whole directory again and you're good. Some games don't work, so you recompile them without the save or cheat options and they work. If i had one of the better cards to begin with I'm sure I'd hate this one, but for the price, and compared to my old one, this is great
