I have vampire killer and I would like to back it up to a floppy disk to play on my MSX2.
What is the best way of putting my physical copy away in storage and burning a rom to a 3.5 disk to play on my hardware?
I would also like to know the same about Space Manbow.
I tried MSX resource but that site is overloaded and I couldn’t find it.
Thanks
Dan

Re: Backing up my MSX carts to floppy?
Strange idea to switch from sturdy modules to fragile diskettes...
But if the game allready exists as image you should be able to write it back on every pc

Better solution would be some kind of everdrive

Yeah, if you don't want to use the original carts just get a flash cart.
Vampire Killer is pure PSG so your idea can be done in theory but anything that uses a special sound chip
like SCC isn't gonna work properly off a Floppy without a sound cartridge anyway.

I understand now. No wonder metal gear 1 and 2 sounded shitty.
MSX cartridge shop makes the flash carts in 2 diffrent kinds.
SSC+
SSC+, +512kb
My question is if I already have 2048kb of Ram, will I still need the +512 KB version for any reason?
