In the next Barcelona MSX Meeting (9-12-2006), Manuel Pazos will present his
new hardware products.
As a result of lookig for a way for making new MegaFlashROMs SCC without using
original Konami games, he developed a new board to build them using new
components.
Due to this new production, some users like Nerlaska, asked him the possibility
of releasing their new ROM games (some of them in development for MSX Dev 06)
in a real cartridges. So Manuel decided to modify the board design to support
both MegaROM and non MegaROM games.
As an example, in the next Barcelona Meeting he will release a new game
compilation cartridge for 10 euros. Two of the included titles are: Operation Wolf
Extended Version (ToyBox) and Traffic Jam (Imanok) still in development for MSX
Dev 06. The final number of games will be 4-8 titles.

play them in the real computer. The cartridge can be also used as SCC sound
