I dont have any everdrive carts yet, but as prices are going to keep going up on real carts, ill probably have to. It a bummer because I really enjoy the real games (just like i enjoy having my records and cds) but its just not worth what people are asking for some of these games, especially if they are at all sought after, forget about it.

How is the ever drive experience ? Do they have an easy game browser built in? I find sometimes these type of things are annoying trying to find 1 game out of 1000 if it doesn start with "A" .

This would likely be for n64/snes/genesis

@bridgeenjoyer Not an Everdrive but I have a EZ Flash Omega for the GBA but works largely the same. It’s easy to pick the game you want from a list but don’t put 1000s of games on there- that’ll just make it hard to find what you want and you’re not going to play them all anyway.

For the vast majority of games there is zero functional difference between playing an original cart or a flashcart like an Everdrive. You get the original hardware experience without price gauging.
