So, my old Super Everdrive is pretty much dead, it doesn't boot up and when it does it's garbled screens, and the 2 times it booted up tonight, it halted at loading a game.Mine was bought in 2013, how long do these things last?
>>11996140Have you checked a real cart and made sure it's not your SNES?
could be the SNES, the older everdrives did have some voltage issues rarelycurrent ones are properly voltage regulated, not telling you to go buy a new fxpak pro (current cart)but yeah check the SNES first with a real cart, I always have a few random carts for each console laying around to trouble shoot, helped me recently actually
>>11996194oh and I usually pick a first party game just for the sake of control
>>11996185I tested 2 actual SNES carts and they worked just fine, but my Everdrive doesn't.
>>11996387is it pic related or chinesiumtry a different sd card thoughit does read and write to the card and that could be the issue if the cards time is upi doubt it but
>>11996390All everdrive are "chinesium". the shells and parts are manufactured in china and only assembled in ukraine
Perhaps off-topic, but I have SNES and N64 I'm looking to purchase some flashcarts for. The N64's best option seems to be the Summercart for around 50 bucks. Not sure what to get for the Snes, any recs? Also does the summercart work with the expansion pak?
>>11996528Summercart for N64, SD2SNES for SNES.>Also does the summercart work with the expansion pak?Of course it does.
>>11996523old ones, yes, the new ones are manufactured in germany
>>11996140>krikzz quality thread
I will reformat the card and see IF THAT is the issue, because I tried to boot the damn cart with no SD card and it rarely boot, always black screen.I should mention my SNES had the AC port broken like many but it used to work.
>>11996140It’s definitely the sd card that failed not the cart itself. Flash a new sd card and itll be fine.
>>11996140its the sd card DUMMY
>>11997476Oh really, I did formatted properly, FAT32, installed the corresponding iOS for V2 (mine is old), and still no boot and sometimes I got garbled screens.And yes I DEEP cleaned the contacts of both my cart and my SNES.But I did mention that my AC connector is broken and sometimes that also gives me problems.
can any flash carts actually damage a console?
>>11997531You need a new sd card not just reformatting the one you already were using.
>>11997536Supposedly yes some flashcarts and multicarts can run high voltage and break shit
>>11997576And here's the proof.>>11997549Well, i did just that, i had some spare cards, properly formatted, same brand (kingstone), same shit.
>>11997580Ugh, I missed up putting a link and the video record fucked.
>>11997609https://files.catbox.moe/7g355h.mkv HERE
Well, I gave up, I did run tests, and I am still convinced that my flashcart pcb and NOT the SD card fucked up, how do I know that?Because I tried 3 different SD cardsAll FAT32With the correct iOS (V2 Everdrive)Correct PathsAnd I am sure that the SD cards weren't the problem, BECAUSE I JUST RUN THE ROMS ON EMULATOR FROM THESE DAMN THINGS, AND NO PROBLEM.IT IS NOT THE FUCKING SD CARD NOR MY SNES, I clean and run my old carts and they worked fine, even the chip based ones!MY EVERDRIVE IS DEAD!
>>11998069Nope. Nothing ever goes wrong with things from Jesus Krikzz so it must be you.
Got a sd2snes from 2012ish that still works. They should last a lifetime outside of power sourges
>>11998621I think his is fucked anon, looking at the video he uploadedThe thing is I doubt it's very common so it'll be hard to discern the issue
>>11998069Its possible the flash memory wore out, each time you write to it, it wears out the oxide layer between cells. You can get a fake one for $20 so no big deal.It could still be the snes, the menu uses the hi rez interlaced mode and if your cartridges don't use that then they might not fail.
>>11996140probably corrupted flash chip. they have a limited amount of write cycles before they start shitting the bed.
>>11998806But I didn't use it that many times?What was the actual limit?Also mine was an old Super Everdrive from 2013, the pcb said V2, it didn't used hires menus.>>11998591Is that the best you can do? A WERKS4MII shitpost?
I see a chink FX PRO on amazon, would that be good enough for SA1 and Super FX? I have old school flash carts from the 00s for Game Boy and NDS and a Famicom Game Doctor.
>>11996523This is false, the shells are made in Ukraine, when the war started Krikzz said he had to pause production on some items because the factory that made the shells was damaged or destroyed, I forget which>>11999025If you got a Chinesium ever drive they probably sourced used flash or flash that failed QA, that's why they're so cheap. You get less write cycles as a result, or they just die soonerAlso flash memory needs to be used periodically, it deteriorates if it sits unused
>>11997562Proof?
>>11999025>Is that the best you can do? A WERKS4MII shitpost?I can do a lot better by pointing out that was an obvious joke. And I can top that by pointing out that your failure to see that indicates you're so dumb it's likely there's nothing wrong with your ED.
>>11999292Not same anon but, fuck you buddy, why are you so obsessed to be so much of a naysaying deflector, nigga posted a video of him trying to turn on his thing and didn't worked. >>11997629You are like one of those pissfaggots from /ic/, just being a shitposter and derailer just out of spite.
you guys do know emulation is free right?
>>11999396You must be 18+ to use the 4chin, OP
Speaking of which, what SNES flash cart should i get from chinkexpress?
>>11996140>>11998069Sorry your thingy broke, OP. Perhaps send an e-mail to the maker and they might help you?https://krikzz.com/contact-us.html
