691.0. "Copy and Edit games" by STC::STC::TIMMONS (Stack Overflow) Tue Nov 12 1991 12:55

This appears to be a system where by you can copy the ROM
of a SNES game onto a floppy, edit the code (for instance
NOP the code that checks how many lives are left), load
the code into RAM and play forever.  

CAUTION: 
Note also that one possible use of this system is illegal, 
(copy games to disk and play without buying the game).
Therefore the odds of seeing such a system for sale at
Toys-R-US for use in changing the games as I want to do 
is remote.  Once again, crooks spoil the fun of the honest 
folks.

Hopefully, we will soon see a Game Genie for SNES though.

Subject: Copier for Super Famicom (SNES), Mega Drive (Genesis), and PC-Engine

I am posting this for a friend.  Send Email if interested to:
[email protected].
-------------------------------------------------------------
Disk drive system for Super Famicom (SNES), Mega Drive (Genesis), and PC-E.
Turbo-16 owners must use an adapter.
Includes 8 megabit rampack, 1.44meg 3 1/2" floppy drive, copier.

Adapters also available for Game Boy, Game Gear, Supergrafx.

Unit requires a 9v DC power supply but will run on 6 AA's as well for
portable use.

The unit is in perfect condition.  I am selling to pay my tuition for next
semester.  I have only one to sell.  First come first serve.  Send Email if
interested.

This unit is NOT the Multigame Doctor with the wires coming out of everywhere.
It is a rampack based unit.  Game loads from disk into rampack (sort of a
blank cartridge) which plugs into the adapter then into the game console.

Subj:	Re:  Copier

Because of the nature of the unit (being multi-console compatible), it is
very expensive.  The unit will include:

Main Console (3 1/2" 1.44 meg floppy disk drive, LCD display)
8 Megabits RAMPACK (think of it as a blank cartridge to load games into)
Copier
Adapters for the following systems:
	Super Famicom (SNES), Mega Drive (Genesis), PC-Engine.

Also, the following adapters are available, but not included:
	Game Boy, Game Gear, Supergrafx

Turbo-16 owner need a converter to run the PC-Engine adapter.
The converter, along with a Mega Drive converter, is included!

You need to supply your own 9v DC power supply.

This multi-console disk drive will go for $850.  It costed me that much,
and I'd like to get what I paid for it.  If you don't have enough consoles
to justify the cost, my cousin has a Genesis-only system that he wants to
sell for $500, which will do what this system will do, but only for a Genesis.
It is NOT expandable to other systems.  Thank you for your interest.
