+Psionic Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 let me know what you think I think you should stop posting links to auctions where people try to sell $20 reproductions for $200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaytonaUSA Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 As a side note, as I'd like to play this... it was mentioned there are 20 dollar repros out there. I did a search and didn't find anything under 140 on the net. Any clue on who could make these? I know the roms are out there, but I don't use emulators at all.

I was just throwing $20 out there as a random amount. I don't follow the Nintendo scene and I don't remember exactly who sold these or how much they went for, but I can tell you that it was significantly less than $200. There were boxed versions available and one of those sold for about $120 a few months back, IIRC. I suspect a loose copy would fetch half that much (or less). I'm not sure if anyone is still making these, but I would think more could be made as long as you have the appropriate donor cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eproms are kind of costly and you have to track down a FX2 donor cart to boot, I believe. There are tutorials on the web if you want to make one for yourself.

DaytonaUSA Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Hmm alright guys. Thanks for the intel. I know that if you don't have the right cart, the speed of the game isn't correct. Though, that's the only thing I ever heard about the carts. I always assumed you had to make your own, and that no one ever made them to sell. I'd love to make my own, but I'm afraid I'm not very proficient when it comes to soldering and all that jazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to make my own, but I'm afraid I'm not very proficient when it comes to soldering and all that jazz. For what its worth I've made a couple Starfox2 repro's I didn't make the one that the original poster has/had for sale. however mine came with alot more then what he was offering. I made up a box and a few misc posters with a cardboard insert, SF2logo on the insert, dust cover, custom label art to match box, (clearly states reproduction on both the back of box and label) also added a brand new battery holder and batter. the first one I made sold for around 250 shipped I believe the last one I sold a few weeks back was for around 130 I had one on CTCW a before that and it sold for 165 shipped. I believe I'd made 5 starfox 2's not really sure how many if any more I'm going to make it does take alot of work and a steady hand the biggest things to make one of these are 1. chips are expensive upwards of 10 dollars a pop. 2. the mask rom (that contains the game) on the donor cart is surfaced mounted so it takes close to 2 hours just to get the old chip off and the new one on because you have to wire individual wires from the board to the chip which make 64 places that need to be soldered 3. desoldering the old battery and modifying the case to accept the new battery holder. and at least for the reproductions I was making it took around 20 hours to make the box artwork from scratch (not a sticker job ontop of a donor box) here is a link to one of the ones I made that was sold on the chuckwagon. sorry I forgot the link http://www.nintendoage.com/forum/messagevi...;threadid=18346 Edited May 29, 2009 by i2a2n2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, would you want to be that person? It's just selfish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
