Order now: www.retrode.org FAQ: www.retrode.org More info on this little website: www.retrode.org To the best of my knowledge, this is the world’s first USB interface for Super Nintendo Super Famicom games. Note: This is one of the few LEGAL ways of playing a commercial SNES game on an emulator. Just because you own a game cart doesn’t mean you are allowed to download the corresponding ROM somewhere.

how would you control the game though
@eMGeeGFX Luckily, I didn’t have to do too much reverse engineering, except for my own code, of course
There are a bunch of excellent tech sites out there. Which kind of reminds me that I wanted to add a link section to the homepage. By the way, gamepads have been supported for half a year now 
Excuse me, I just checked your channel (which is excellent, by the way) and you already have worked on gamepad support I see. That’s just great, also your plans to produce these units. I wish you the best of luck.
That’s impressive. I’m somewhat familiar with AVR’s Atmel, only recently got acquainted with it. Did it take much assembly insight or did you write it mostly with C/C++? Also, did you reverse-engineer everything, or are pin-out schematics and so on available out on the net?
Now also build yourself an USB joystick/gamepad controller!
@HepheistoBD So why don’t you get one? They do exist, after all
I would need the exact opposite thing … a blank cartridge to upload ROMs from the PC to play the games on the SNES with the controller (yea maybe it would be easier to just get a controller for PC….)
@xkrazyways Most game carts are not writable, so: no.
can you change games like i dont like this game and put a differnt game in it
The ability to back-up & restore game saves between cartridge & PC makes this a very enticing device!
Still, if there were an adapter that went between the console & cartridge that could read/write saves to an SD card, that would be the ultimate “must-have”.
@joemann797 Yeah, but if that’s what you have in mind, you might as well just download the stuff.
Well, I guess this is the most legal way to play your super nintendo games on your PC, since you are playing it directly off the original ROM. The only problem with this device is that you can also simply just copy the SMC file onto your computer and not even have to keep it connected at all or keep the original cartridge either.
I have never seen someone miss the point that’s right in front of their noses… That’s exactly what he means by “Russian porn sites”. It’s a funny way to basically say “by illegal means”.
@DaVince21 no. I just go on goolge and put in snes rom torrent,
“Usually you have to go to different Russian porn sites to download these ROMs. But wouldn’t it be way cooler if…”
So, you basically missed the point here. Also, for who cares, this makes playing ROMs on PC actually legal.
@Dant2142 Whatever the reason, they still don’t emulate the bios but use the original
@Psoewish That was mainly because they wanted to keep the emulator itself legal, and couldn’t reverse-engineer the bios themselves.
good work
lol the russian porn thing is soooo true!!!
wow its caleed rom and also torrents
Actually, I don’t believe it does emulate the bios. Most emulators I’ve used either had the bios built in (mostly for older systems) .. but some actually require you to use your own bios … like a ps2 emulator for example.
Also .. using torrents to download roms lets you pretty much evade thos “russian porn sites” … but this is still much more epic. Now you should modify it so it has a nice case and all that .. and can be used anywhere without getting too weird looks :3
Russian porn sites? WTF? There’s a whole bunch of great sites that have ROMs for various systems – and the closest they have to Russian porn sites is that one of them is French.
ok , i sent them an e-mail about it , thanx though
Subscribe to the newsletter, and you will be told when they are available
ok , but how do i purchase it ?

@Kloen27 Christmas Carol Part 2
Which episode is it where he meets the ghost and is him in the future playing on the Wii with beard and stuff?
Ahh, Mike Matei, like Johnny Depp, Always playing Dress-up
It would be worst if the characters fell from a great hight they would die.
Thats would of benn really bad.
lol wtf with the end
the book is really different then the book…. witch bubbles? also nice cowardly lion…. haha did you just swear??
My cousin had this god awful game on the SNES. It sucked then, and it always will.
The lion is unreal xD
motherfucker mike is a legend
Mike Matei’s performance is amazing.
@hockeyplaya131 I KNOW THAT!!! YOU obviously missed my first comment. I said, and I quote…
‘I think “The Wizard of Oz” would have worked better as an RPG, like “Final Fantasy” or “Dragon Warrior/Dragon Quest”.’
And if you still choose to be stubborn, then that’s your problem, not mine.
@Tubewings Obviously you don’t. Wizard of Oz is a platformer you idiot.
@hockeyplaya131 I know perfectly well what RPG games are. If i didn’t, I wouldn’t have suggested that “Wizard of Oz” be an RPG game.
@Tubewings “…it would fit perfectly with the RPG genre of gaming.” Do you know what an RPG is? I highly doubt you do, so until you learn what it is, I, on behalf of RPG players and gamers in general, request you shut up.
The lion has tourretes!!!!! lol!!
Oh god, here it is , look out for the clock * Thud * Ugh…
Best line of the episode
lol, Fucking Horrendous game. The demo was absolutely pitiful haha
first minute and a half featured douche bags with guitars and little kids with xylaphones.
lol i have tht same clock…5/5
lol i like to wipe my ass with this tail 6:02
@LooneyTunerIan It did at the end.
nerd: see, now how am i supposed to get under this flame?
lion: piss on it
@TheEventMaker Well, for one thing, the Nerd explained all the f-ups they did with them doing it as a platforming jumping game (such as Tinman not being able to jump). And also, since “The Wizard of Oz” falls into the fantasy genre, it would fit perfectly with the RPG genre of gaming.
At 1:10, I wonder why a five year old watches the Nerd.
@Tubewings Can you explain a little bit more?
