What do you guys think about cartridge reproductions? Some old

>>378477993
Pointless garbage and overpriced 95% of the time since most of them are made out of 2 buck sports titles and other pawn shop bargain bin old shovelware. Emulate, buy real, fine, but repros are just dumb wastes of space.

kinda pointless when there's emulators

I can't see how that could possibly matter.

I really just don't like using emulators and like having physical games.

They're legit man. I like playing on the actual hardware with friends. It's tight to finally have all these $200 games that I've been wanting to play for forever.

Go on etsy and you can get them for $20. I got mine from coastlinegames and they all play perfect. I can only speak to the quality of their snes games though.

Only good for games that weren't released here.

I've never heard of etsy but I'll check it out. You've never had any problem with any of them? They play the same as an official cartridge?

GET A FUCKING FLASHCART.

i say it is cool when they make a rom hack snes game

or a gameboy advanced game to snes

But I would seperate the two and know it is not official.

I only would support the original copies in this case

Repro carts should cost nothing more than 10 dollars, because they use shit sports games nobody cares about.

If emulation doesn't offer the accuracy that you desire then a repro cart will, for a small price. Ideally you should get a flashcart and load it with your own games but this is cool too and you can pawn it off to some dumb kid for profit when you're done.

Exactly the same man. I got a bunch too. Sunset Riders, Wild Guns, Metal Warriors, TMNT Turtles in Times, Pocky and Rocky 2, and Zombies Ate my Neighbors.

I also played Sunset Riders with a guy who has a legit copy and he didn't understand when I said it wasn't the real deal. He couldn't tell the difference.

I'm definitely interested in getting Star Fox 2 on a cart.

Repros are mostly pointless because you can just get a flash cart for most cases.

But if you are buying from Aliexpress they are cheap so that works I guess.

I wouldn't mind a Gimmick! repro with Audio though.

I've seen them for about $30 on Ebay, but makes no sense when you can get an authentic copy for $10-20 more dollars.

>bought a bunch of shitty carts at garage sales
>cleaned them up, reprod them to a bunch of "rare" or valuable carts
>brought them to a flea market and walked away with $400

Not a bad way to spend an afternoon. But it's not really something you can do all of the time. People will get wise.

A good deal if is a english translated japanese only game. Pointless for almost everything else.

If you want a physical copy of an old gen game that is easily emulated, you want it for collection purposes in 2017. Buying a reproduction for $30 that probably costed like $2 to actually produce is like ripping yourself off, at least genuine is overpriced because of its rarity and status, why the fuck reproduction costs like a new game is beyond me. Sure you may like to play on actual hardware, but you're still doing it for collection purposes.

Just get a flash cart.
