Is this PC Engine 32MB Flash Cartridge any good?

Post by PC Engine Fan X! »

I've notice on the Tototek site, they have a PCE Pro-32MB Flash Cartridge for the PC Engine consoles & is priced at $115.00 USD. Plus the added bonus of using cheats with the PCE games as well (I recall that no such external cheat device {i.e. Game Genie, Game Shark or Gold Finger} was ever created for the PCE platform anyways):

Does anyone here on the Shumps.org board have one of these puppies and is it worth the $$$ for one? (Tototek says that one can play the 20MB Hu-Card of Street Fighter II ROM without any problems...)

Yeah, I was interested in whether it actually saved games or not, because having a Duo save file-to-PC transfer would be invaluable.

That would be really cool.

OT:
I still haven't found a way to use that Save-kun I got a while ago;
I need a tool to actually copy savegames to it. :(

I read somewhere that Emerald Dragon is supposed to contain such a utility, but it's hiddden. Can anyone help?

My friend had one but sold it a year ago in order to buy the NeoPCE 64MB. They're smaller, easier, cheaper and better looking to boot.

But Tototek's PCE PRO is still nice flash cart, pretty much supported every PCE game that my friend could find. IIRC, You can only put a few games on it for multiboot, something like 3 games at time.

I think the only reason to get a Tototek PCE PRO now is if you use Linux so at least you can use Ucon64 to transfer the games.

Btw, this does not allow you to save games or double as a System/Arcade card.
