EverDrive N8 Fami

This device is a real piece of garbage. Absolutely ridiculous the hoops that you have to jump through to troubleshoot. There’s no real information up front on how finicky it is and how limited the compatibility is with various devices. It doesn’t even work on original hardware with an adapter made by them! It also doesn’t work and spits out errors with just about every memory card on the market. I’m sick of trying to make this work. I wish I hadn’t wasted my money on this trash! I spent so much time troubleshooting that I passed the return window on Amazon. The build quality is terrible as well. At one point I put in a memory card and it got completely jammed in there, so I had to open it with a screwdriver to retrieve it.

I use this Everdrive in a Sharp Twin Famicom to play my NES and Famicom/Famicom Disk System backups. It performs great with little load time. It’s nice having all of my games at my fingertips without swapping carts.

I would have liked to know it uses MicroSD cards, as this wasn't listed anywhere on the product page and I failed to find that in my research of it. I hope someone writes an NSF player for it in the future. The RP2CC (FDS audio) emulation is good if you are on the latest development firmware.

This is a must have if you own a Famicom or NES with an adapter (there is also a NES specific version). Play any Nintendo or Famicom (including disk system) game or hack/homebrew from one cartridge (SD card and roms required).

does what it's supposed to do, would be useful to include an instruction sheet, but lets be honest, if you buying something like this you know how to search the internet. Packaging was fanfrickintastic

Some kids wrote their name in Sharpie all over the old games. Now I don't need to spend hours removing them.
