It’s too bad nothing ever became of this. The author ditched his plans for distribution claiming “bad design”. The PowerPak cart is an alternative available at RetroZone for $135, but not all mappers are fully supported (no MMC5) there either. Looks like you may still need to fall back on software emulation (or original cartridges) for a handful of games.

Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse (US/European version), Just Breed, Metal Slader Glory used the MMC5 mapper

Looks good to me, and it isn’t too high priced! Just unfortanate that it can’t support every mapper, so I could play Gimmick! on my NES without needing a real Famicom or cart adapter.

I notice that It cannot run games with the MMC5 mapper.

Which games used that?

Thanks for the heads up on this. If GrandTheftendo ever gets finished this could be really useful! I’ll post a link on Siliconera about this later today.
