I was hoping Stone Age Gamer would so I could purchase one domestically. In fact, I've been thinking about emailing them and suggesting that.

Is Dragon Box legit? I never heard of them before.

Yes, make sure your firmware is at 2.0 BETA 6 because I still think that's the best version overall, but the game saves were fixed at 1.5

I really need to talk to that guy again and see if there is any more story to the save issue on Sega stuff, Nintendo was cleared.

It also reminds me I need to actually USE the console. I've barely touched it or the PS4 for months now. I've been more into my pinball stuff the last 30 days, beyond that just the laptop, my kindle paperwhite, and the 3DS. I just picked up a GBC about a week ago now because it was too good to pass up, so now I could actually see what GB/C games are like on it too.

I've heard of Dragon Box for a while, but never ordered from them.

So many complicated answers here.

The solution is simple.

Get a Retron 5.

For all your cartridge stuff, yes. Back it up to the Retron's internal memory or to an SD card.
