The last NES game I played was GI Joe Atlantis Factor.  Picked it up yesterday.

Last night I played a translated version of fire Emblem on my Powerpak (I love that thing, btw. Some of the best money I ever spent). I breezed through the first two levels no problem, made it through levels 3 and 4 with a bit more difficulty, then got my ass handed to me on level 5. I figured I would try again today, but found out that it didn't save my game! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Hoping this is not a stupid question, but are you familiar with the saving process on the PP? It seems screwy at first but is easy once you get the hang of it.

No.  Can't do it on the big TV with XRGB, which blows pretty hard. 

But, the cross hair works ok.  I just pretend it's a gun by holding it retarded and lean around and scream while I play.

I thought the readme file said you have to hold the reset button while turning the power off. I did that. Is there something I'm missing?

Yes. First off you have to preload some SAV files on the PowerPak CF card (they have blank ones on their side and you might already have them on your cart).
Then, when you are ready to power down, you have to charge the reset button for about 5 seconds, then release. You will be back at the PowerPak prompt where you can select which SAV file to write to.
The next time you play, select the SAV file to load at the last screen before you start the game (the one that has the blank lines for GG codes).

Aha, I see. I thought it saved like my old Legend Of Zelda cart. Thanks for clearing that up!

I only tried the Yobo FC game console. After the second game, two pins came loose. Never tried a clone again.
