Long version: All games have a chip on the board for it as well. It's to prevent unlicensed games (and what a fine job they did). The cart has to communicate with the chip to work. If not, the chip will keep resetting the system. This is all solved by snapping the fourth connector (going left to right) on the front side of the chip on the system board. There are good picture step by step guides for doing it.
Short version: It's a useless piece of shit.
Yaaaaaa boi. Probably gonna do this myself for Super Aleste. Because SUPER ALESTE. If only Nintendo region lock was as much of a joke as Sega region lock. :wacko:Quote:

It didn't help things that Sci-Fi ended Atlantis before announcing Universe but, those trailers put me off more than anything.
I need to get the rest of the Atlantis BDs at some point. I secretly hope for an SG-1 BD release but, I know it's not happening :sadchair:.
Hey...TNG happened! But yeah super unlikely.
Also this :wacko:.Quote:

I still need to give Babylon 5 a proper go.
That's because nearly all the right source material was there and they didn't have to make a vast amount of enhancements.Quote:
