What's a good cartridge and linker set?

[makeshift5]

I don't need to put a bunch of games on it so a small sized MB cartridge will do just fine. I'm totally new to GBA roms so I have no idea what to buy or where to buy the cartridge and linker thing. Something cheap around $50 bucks would rule. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks :bouncy:

You'll be lucky to find one for 50, but i know www.jandaman.com has an EZFA256 (which is the cart I used to have) for a decent price. I recommend that cart.

I have an XROM 512Mb which I got from www.easybuy2000.com. Had a neoflash 512Mb previously, but one of the Flash memory chips was bad, and they were being retarded about RMA, so I picked an XROM up. Couldn't be happier, and it's cheap cheap cheap at $69. Works great in my DS, although you need a GBA/GBA SP to connect it to your PC.

Keep in mind that flash carts' storage space is measured in Megabits (Mb), not MegaBytes (MB). A 512Mbit flash cart has 64MB of space, and so on.

i got a XGLite 256Mb, it works fine, has a little "cradle" to load the roms, i got it cheap at ebay.

for the sake of this thread I am going to assume these are public domain gba roms you're going to be using

I'm using the Supercard SD. I'm happy with it, because i don't mind the slowdowns at some places in Metroid Fusion and some non-working games (those who need 128kb save files, Realtime clock or EEPROM's). One advantage is the big capacity of SD/CF cards, it's enough for whole movies
I bought it just because i was curious about how the GBA movies are looking. They're very acceptable for a 16Mhz handheld :happy:

i am not talking about this again, not even on PM since it is against the forum rules and it is widely discussed on other GBA Forum sites.

I'd recommend the X-Rom also... Great cart for a great value xD Had it for 5 months, and no problems yet
