Just by looking around the pics, does Krikzz know that the PCE, GT, Duo, etc have power switch/stoppers where the SD card is (for now), BUT the SGX also has a stopper on the opposite side (where the USB plug is)? Basically, the handle edge of the HuCard/Everdrive can't have connectors on it unless users are willing to snap off the power switch stoppers of their PCEs/SGXs...
Looks great!
I hope it really is priced at the $78 mark - I got a bit of a shock at the pricing of his latest MD cart.
I don't quite understand this. Does it work like an emulator? How will I be able to play Magical Chase? Sorry, new to this... From the video it looks like every game is on the flash card. Is this correct?The everdrive flash cartridge is not emulation.Pretty much,you save the game rom to the sd card and the device flashes it's program.I have one for the (sega genesis) and it works great so i can't wait for the TG16 version.
Damn... This is really bad timing for gameofyou's flash card. Hopefully there's a market for both.I am sure there will be. His will be cheaper, and I know there will be peeps that purchase both.

here is photo how proto board looks. final board will be almost same, but without small tactile button, jtag connector and without white wire. also i will change sd slot layout in final revision, cuz prototype pcb fit not very good (SD card crossed with power switch)
i recently made street fighter2 mapper, but one of game levels work with terrible glitches (sea port level in USA), but all other levels works fine. i wonder if there need to use some known "tricks" to make it work, or it is just some my mistake somewhere. may be there someone who knows something about pce and sf2 mapper (:
99% of game HuCards are just a ROM up to 1 Megabyte in size. SF2'CE is an exception as it is 2.5 Megabytes and to allow that a memory mapper was designed for it. I have heard Populous might have some extra (maybe battery backed) RAM but that is about it. So again, 99% of HuCard games should work perfectly on the EverDrive. Populous is the only game that will not work.
I wonder if the Turbo Everdrive will have the same issues that the Neo Flash does with weak voltage. I hope not. :( I don't like the idea of spending all that money to find it doesn't work on my region modded Duo-R forcing me to get another console just for it.

what issues does it have?
i think i may have an answer to the neoflash issue.
i dought it was ever weak voltage.
as it must load the rom to the executable area of the card boot time becomes an issue.
if the system reset is completed before the rom is ready it will not work properly.
i ran into this on the gameofyou flash and solved it
I am in love....
I am in love....
Ah, but you gotta decide Bernie!! ;) You were committing to buying the low cost one in the other thread which is only 1 MB, meaning you'll have to flash another game in every time you wanna switch (and it'll never work with SFII, but eh, who cares? With 2 button control, it's shitty to play & it's available in every other platform, MAME, etc. so I technically wouldn't care if this one couldn't handle it.). This one, IF it works according to its claims, even with a small 1GB micro SD Card, you'll have EVERY game available at the touch of your fingertips! The full NEC HuCard ROM collection is only 301 MB, even smaller if you exclude the duplicate dumps ([a1], [a2], [a3], etc.).
the reason it was an issue on yours is the flash chip has to arrange the data in 8 or 16 bit at initialization.
the chip stores it as 2 8bit roms,
it then uses an internal mapper to stack the roms

I'm curious where you see this in the datasheet. Because all I see is "Trh - RESET# High Time Before Read - MIN 0nS".
...suspected the TG16 was beginning boot shortly after reset low.
Too bad the everdrive won't have the plastic coating to make it look all pretty like the neoflash, or will it?

will there be a case for it? what would be the best way to store it? total noob on this end btw.

I PM'ed the creator and asked him about how much is it gonna cost WITH shipping to the USA and he said $85 bucks!!!!! Done deal, I'm buying it!! If it works as expected, that's a very respectable pricepoint! Just hope there are no bugs/issues in the first batch. I'll probably wait though until feedback starts coming in after he starts making a first couple of sales to people, see what they say.

These two images sum up the situation well. The first photo is a SGX compared to a DUO-RX. In addition, notice how the green bit goes over the card in the 2nd photo.
Is retrogate a good website to purchase these? I am thinking of getting the MD version at the same time as the PCE version.
Thanks a lot for info. I already moved SD slot to the middle of the board, USB still on old place, but usb port need only for people who want develop something, 99% of cart will be sold without usb port, since USB completely useless for gamers. So i think that USB is not a problem for most of sgx owners
Krikzz made a video to demo it! He loads/tests "Street Fighter II:CE," Batman, R-Type, and Toilet Kids, etc.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yb7rVJlQU_w
Towards the end he'll point the camera down to his PC Engine, turn it off, take the SD card out, turn back on, etc. (I guess to show it retained the memory of the last game? Not sure.). Anyway, looks awesome!
Myself, I don't really care because I don't own one and never will (I respect collectors and I think its design is real badass, but I'd never buy such a failed 5-game system - that was not a good sign of things to come for NEC).I agree the SGX sucks if you think of it as a five-game system. I prefer to think of it as a "PC Engine Plus." If you don't already own a PC Engine, buying a hundred-dollar console that can also play Battle Ace and Ghouls n' Ghosts isn't a bad way to go.
If this gets popular I think there is a chance it could bring the prices down on regular genuine HuCards that are sold on Ebay. Which is a good thing but I can see how some of you might think its a bad thing. Most "gamers" will go for the flash card so that will cut down on the demand for genuine HuCards. We'll see.... :-k
Exactly. I'll use a flash card for stuff I can't afford, but when I can afford what I want I'm gonna want to own it legitimately, in real, physical form.
Ok anyone that recently got the Neo Flash card getting one of these?
these work good for a couple bucks... http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-2-0-SD-MMC-Card-Reader-TF-to-Micro-SD-Adapter-/130533782372?pt=Video_Games_Accessories&hash=item1e646b7364

Any feedback from the current Everdrive carts? Also I was going to get the Everdrive MD but now thinking the Mega Everdive might be the way to go...
How is the usb port used for development? When connected to a computer, does it mount the SD card as a drive?

The regular Everdrive is awesome. I'll probably get a Mega Everdrive eventually. No rush, though.
Now somebody figure out a way to play HES files on real hardware please!
Now somebody figure out a way to play HES files on real hardware please!
Charles MacDonald wrote a converter to turn HES files into PCE romz (linky (http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=1824.msg23642#msg23642)). Sadly the link to the utility is dead, but maybe someone has it sitting on their hard drive or knows of another place to find it.
Is the process of development that hardware-dependent for you that doing most of or as many of your tests on an emulator first isn't sufficient enough before occasionally swapping the SD card/updating contents to see how it looks on real hardware ?
I have the hes to .pce converter on some of my computers. I'll look for it and post it when I have time. Might be easier to just secretly pm the sound roms though.
Are these going to be really limited production? Do I need to order one as soon as possible, or does Krikzz make up more cards every so often?
Unfortunately no, you can't use it as a system card.
Re ordering them, they will be in production for a while and not limited, so no rush.
I wonder if I can use it to play Altered Beast on CD with a pretend System 1.0 card. I don't see why I couldn't. Or maybe some Games Express games, that is if those cards don't have RAM.
What about the TurboGrafx-CD? To my knowledge the System 1 and 2 cards didn't have any RAM in them.
$135? Really? I don't think that is pricey. Considering how much you probably spent on your PCE console, or how much brand new games for modern systems cost. $135 for a NES flash cart that will play pretty much every licensed NES game is a good deal.
Anyway, KRIKzz was asked about doing a NES EverDrive and he was not terribly interested in it last time it came up. Afterall he's done, Megadrive twice, N64, SNES, now makes the SD2SNES carts too, Master System, Game Gear, and now TG16/PCE. Compared to other systems the NES is pretty involved to make a flash cart for because of all the different memory mappers. The Gameboy/Gameboy Color has a few different mappers and is requested alot too. It may become a reality. Not so sure about NES. Also bear in mind he lives in a country where the NES doesn't exist. I think just Famicom clones maybe.
The NES / Famicom has tons of games worth playing. It's easily worth the $135. You just need to see a list of games you are interested in.
Got my shipping notice from retrogate this morning. Turbo Everdrive is in the mail.
part of me wants it real bad, but another part says "hey, you can just build repros of the unreleased ones"

I got my Turbo Everdrive today. Works great. Only problem is the power switch, the safety blade thing that is designed to keep idiots from pulling out the HuCard with the power on, hits my Micro SD card so I have to push on it when I turn the power on. But other than that, everything I tried worked great so far. And I use a RGB Modded DUO-R system. Very happy with the Turbo ED so far.
This takes a micro SD card itself; the adapter you're thinking of is a large-sized looking SD card and you plug the micro SD card into that so you can then plug it into your computer (assuming you have a SD port in the front panel). If not, I dunno what other adapter that you were thinking of...I got my Turbo Everdrive today. Works great.

Ah, excellent! I'm not one that can throw money around and I saw risk here, so I wanted to wait until others bought it to find out if it works as advertised. But eh, I'll have to wait a month or so; I just bought some bowling shoes, paid for my car insurance, car city+state taxes, etc. so bleh, I don't need to throw extra stuff on my CC till I'm clear next month.
Im on the fence about getting one of these. Im going to actually buy any HuCARD that I want to play, but it could be useful with those translated roms.
The clicky thing is indeed a reset.
That just means the emulator isn't accurate.Not exactly. When the first emulators were coming out, the only roms available were from the handful of game copiers that were around back then. None of them produced "pure" dumps - they all had headers, interleaving, etc. The emulators simply supported what was there.
I grabbed the entire pc engine / turbografx library of roms. All these roms have been cleaned up any every single one I played works great on my turbo everdrive.
I find that once through the dishwasher usually does the job.

Here's the amazing pcb cover I made:
(http://imgboot.com/images/Drakon/turboeverdriveawesomecover.jpg)

So... good idea to coat liquid tape over the PCB ? I'm pretty sure I've never damaged anything electrical via a static charge, but I don't wanna start now either when I get this. Looks like he used good, lifetime tantalum caps, so I don't see any repairs I would ever have to do forcing me to remove the coating years from now. Anyhow, this thing is definitely a pretty final solution! Sounds like everything works and it'd be a perfect companion to my ole TurboExpress!I'm not sure if it's safe to do that, but if it is, it would be pretty cool, and an almost effortless solution.
I assumed it would snap into the little holes in the PCB.
I'm not sure; I don't own one; I've only seen pictures of it.
Failing that, if someone had a resin kit (or something else along those lines), they could probably make some molds for a shell.
It could have several pegs/pillars that go through the holes in the PCB.
If the pillars were hollowed-out a bit, one could include some screws that could be twisted in from the underside of the PCB, perhaps.
Or, you could skip the screws and use a dab of epoxy on the chips, and possibly on part of the SD Card Slot Shield.
The pegs should still be there, to help resist slippage, at least.

Oh wow there really are four extremely tiny holes I didn't even notice that. The bottom ane sides of it are flush against the case. On mine I used a small amount of hot glue since with epoxy there's no going back.
I don't get why everyone is so paranoid and wanting to encase the thing. Hold it from the edges like you do a CD. Put some electrical tape over the JTAG port if you are worried and use that as your point to pull it out of the system.1. MSRP $80.
Yeah, I am going to be getting one of these...soon as they are back in stock.... :(I'm strongly considering doing the same. I really miss all of the games I sold, and my Duo.

It looks like that it runs a whole lot better than the team neo one that I have.
This isn't really a fully formed idea, but would it be possible to create a kind of adapter that would connect to the back of the TG16, take a USB key or SDCard and simulate a CD-Rom drive? And use the Turbo Everdrive for your CD system card?
That's pretty sweet, Drakon. Man, I want one of those.

I don't know if the fpga on the turbo everdrive is powerful enough to simulate the extra ram found in the cd system cards. And probably krikzz is the only person capable of knowing how to program the OS for how it's used. And yes I'm sure you could build something that plugs into the back and uses fpga to simulate the cd drive, but nobody has bothered yet and it takes a good amount of skill to build something like that.
It is a cover that came with an old PCMCIA slot card for an old IBM laptop. The hucard sleaves fit but this protects betterI've seen those PCMCIA Cases for sale online, at several websites, for around three bucks each.
Not the one i have but $2 on ebayThanks for the linkage; I just bought one. I'm gonna see if it will at least fit a standard HuCard. I'll let ya'll know, when it gets here.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Alesis-QCard-standard-PCMCIA-Card-Jewel-Case-NEW-/251093242805
They fit standard hucards but are a little looseThat's cool; there needs to be some extra thickness for the plexi-shield over the chips on the Deluxe Edition Turbo Everdrive, anyway. ;)
That looks like a pretty good deal on Ebay for a $2 case. He has a bunch of them and 100% feedback. I think it looks really nice in that case.Good question. I'm wondering the same thing.
Ok so whats the word on when the everdrive is going to be for sale again?? How long is the wait? I might have enough $ in the next week or so and I really want one.
Looking for Deluxe Edition? We currently do not know if a Deluxe Edition will be possible for this product. If we do make a Deluxe Edition we will offer a Deluxe Edition upgrade kit to customers who purchased their Turbo EverDrive from Stone Age Gamer. The price of the kit will be the difference in price from Board Only to Deluxe Edition.
I want a white one with red lettering that says "PC-Everdrive".....lolI grabbed the photo off of another forum.
What is the deluxe version just cosmetic changes?

Thanks Duo-r, my turbo everdrive just arrived today. Now I need to pick up a micro sd. Street Fighter II is already preloaded which pretty sweet. Since there is no instructions or manual, how do you load the rome? Just drap n drop into the micro sd? Never owned a everdrive before.
No Intro Rom Sets are good rom sets, they only use verified roms.
I tried Populous, the only HuCard with a battery save and yet it saves to the internal RAM of my awesome TurboGrafx-CD Interface Unit. What's the battery save for?
What is the extra RAM used for?
Seems to run fine on the Everdrive from what I've played of it.
Will the prices for older flash cards goes down??

Always buy from Retrogate. Stone Age Gamer is pretty useless. He probably doesn't want to sell the board only versions because he can't profit as much from it. He's all about the crappy "deluxe" versions which are all pretty useless. How hard is it to find a normal cartridge shell at a thrift store and use that if you really need it? The Turbo Everdrive certainly doesn't need a "deluxe" edition, especially something emblazoned with Stone Age Gamer's logo on it.

I had made contact with Krizz on Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/user/biokrik), exchanged a few PMs and pointed out that there might be problems given placement of the USB port and what not with the SuperGrafx, etc. That was about 4-5 PMs going back'n'forth, but then I guess I pushed my luck with the last PM where I asked if I could buy it directly from him hoping I could save a couple of bucks from his retailers... Well, he never responded back to me after that. ;) We call that one a polite "no..." Hehe. Ah well, I tried. I assume when you did it his site http://krikzz.com/ had an integrated shopping cart to order direct from him and not a bunch of links to all the retailers that he's made a deal with for his products.
You could always find a better Case and Insert for the TurboEverDrive
Retrogate.com is his storefront. Buy from there, and you're buying from him.

Does anyone here know the science behind this?
1)Cart may not work properly with region modded systems
I've been wanting to pick one up to use with my modded Duo-R and am a bit concerned that I might not be able to use it.
I have a region-modded duo-r and the turbo Everdrive works fine for me.
I think that's due to some huey slots not having enough power for the region mod chip and the flash cart, which can be worked around by tapping a different source for more juice.necro's right, all you have to do to fix it is tap 5v to the correct pin on the huey slot and all will be well.
I don't think the PCB would be functionally damaged by filing it. The USB jack might get in your way on one side and the MicroSD card slot on the other, though. And I imagine paint would rub off after a while. I don't think most paint is conductive but I still wouldn't recommend it. You just get a lot of paint flakes inside your system.

Now that gives me more to go on. Knowing that you personally bought one and what it consists of makes me second guess. It may be just as easy to buy a naked board and store it in an empty HuCARD case.. Actually, you can buy a jewel case for PCMCIA cards on eBay for about $2.50 shipped, and the TE fits in it perfectly. I'll post a pic. It would be cool to design an insert for it....
I'm surprised I didn't think of that, I've actually got a few of those laying around. I think it'd be really cool for someone to design an insert, it'd be kinda like an FDS game that way.
I bought my bare Turbo Everdrive from Stone Age Gamer. I wish I hadn't. I just don't like the guy. I 've bought everything else from Retrogate and nothing but good times there and they actually respond to your e-mails. Not only that, they respond quickly.

Why not just use a HuCard case?

Well, guess I'm stupid then. I just don't see how you feel I'm stupid because I choose to buy that package deal. But what do I know.... :)
You aren't being exploited. You have a choice. Obviously some will choose to buy the naked board, and that's fine. But some may like the look and not mind paying the extra for eye candy. I just happen to be one of them. I'd rather just pay someone else to make it look all pretty, than attempt to do it myself. :)
No, people are stupid if they think it's reasonable to spend $60 on paper, plastic and a sticker.

I want to buy a Turbo Everdrive, but I'm a little afraid of it not working on my PCE because of the +5v voltage issue... Is there a way to know if a certain mod on a certain system will have issues? I have a white PCE with both RGB and region mod, which are very similar to the ones on the mmmonkey site (http://www.mmmonkey.co.uk/category/nec/). Does anyone known if I could run into problems with it?
From the makers of such hits like Mega Everdrive and Super Everdrive comes the most amazing, axe swinging, dinosaur bonking, awesome true-color animation product ever released for the TurboGrafx16!

Did you get post or screw version?
So does it come in black or do you have to paint it yourself ?
The white version is the cheapest at $22 or so. The black version is the most expensive at $28.50. Since I have a US TurboGrafx I got the black version. Also, I'm pretty stupid with my money. But original PCE owners should opt for the white version. I didn't notice any CoreGrafx or Duo grey colors.
And it's not black LOL
Here's the thing after I printed out my own label for it:

If you want to order your own I got them from McMaster.com part number 92010A001 and the description is..Metric 18-8 Stainless Steel Flat Head Phillips Machine Screw, M2 Size, 4MM Length, .4MM Pitch, Packs of 100
I think forum member "effowe" got his M2x5mm from McMasterCarr.com based on the GIF he posted (http://) (he posted the M2x4mm version). Might want to confirm with him via PM. He mentioned he has extras. If you are able to source the metric screws elsewhere, just make sure it's no longer than 5mm long otherwise you will pierce through the shell. I personally prefer 4mm length to be safe. Also use a bead reamer like the one I discuss with him on the thread (http://). He actually did a better job (http://) than I did.
If you can find the screws, that'd be cool. I think they need to not have heads because they go in from the bottom of the Turbo ED.

At the risk of coming off like a self-promoting douche, I posted a review of the Turbo Everdrive on YouTube.

Excellent!
You're using Final Cut Pro X, I recognize the transitions (I think they're also in iMovie). Sucks that FCPX can't capture video game footage. You have to use Quicktime, Final Cut Pro 7 or something else.
And no a region switch won't affect the functionality of the everdrive.Krikzz put out a warning on the Everdrive forums about using it on a system with a chip-based region mod though:
Mods with IC buffer may work only in read mode and obstruct all outputs from data bus. Also, region modded systems sometimes may hangs randomly. I would not use turbo-ed with region modded system, unstable bus be an cause of some random operations, it may destroy everdrive biosMine works perfectly fine on both my region modded Duo-R and TG-16 though, both of which use the Obey chip.
Retrogate is solid, the shipping may take a while but he stands by his product and if there are issues my experience is he will take care of it.
And no a region switch won't affect the functionality of the everdrive. There is a region switch built into the device as well.

Does anyone know if the standard ED fits flush in an armless Keith Courage case?

An armless KC case is the same as basically any other huey case, right? It fits fine even with a manual.
