Full listing of game copiers
These old timers are still used by dumpers and release groups.
They are especially cool for dumping prototypes recently found. http://www.robwebb.clara.co.uk/backup/index.html#menu |

You had that? Cool!
Imagine back in 1994, when we were going to BBS to get Atari or C64 or Amiga games, and this thing comes out. And the new internet information suoper highway is burgeoning, and you have all thoughts of ideas on the way we get games. |

I still have a coupla these lying around .. The boxes look a bit tatty but they (the wildcards) work perfectly.

I've still got my Super-UFO for SNES and a Super Magic Drive for Megadrive. Can run downloaded ROMs on the real hardware which is really nice

It would be nice to see one that could use Flash Cards or if you can use it with the Floppy Emulator. I Love these things I remember as a kid I thought I was cool copying Amiga and ST games but my neighbor from Hong Kong had a MagicDrive Ive never figured the disk capacities 12MegaBit etc? but Street Fighter 2 Fitted on 2 disks and was a hell of a lot better than the Amiga Version

I've successfully assembled some MD code, copied to a floppy and then run it on a real machine It also has a connector to run games from a PC over a parallel cable.

I used to have a Super Wildcard DX 32 (much like that pictured), either send via parrell cable, or use HD disks.
Sigh, those WERE the days. |

Yes indeedy. Snes games on a floppy - like magic! I'd love to get hold of a wildcard dx2 - where would be good to look?

£200 for a dx2? Blimey.. And they must be old by now too...
I used to have a pile of old snes copiers (super ufo/profighter/professor etc...) but sold them all. They were all unreliable imho - I used to fix them for friends - internally they tended to be very cheap; the voltage regulators always knackered (and was pretty dodgy to start with). Best console backup unit I've ever seen was "Mr.Backup" or 'Z64' for the N64. |

You can sometimes find them on places like Tototek, if they happen to have them lying around... I got a Double Pro Fighter from them (after I sold all my copiers back in the day) for Snes/Megadrive. Admittedly it came wrapped in a carrierbag + sellotape all the way from Hong Kong, but it worked (and still does)!

Worked fine from regular HD disk. So I can't recommend doing it. Oh man, I really should not have sold that SWC DX.
