Hello
Has anyone done PCB design for a Japanese SMS reproduction carts?
Would love to make a couple mainly for the awesome music the Japanese system has.
Thanks a lot!

2minds.fr is doing x4 Japanese inspired homebrew cartridges. Check it out 👍

Thanks for the tip, but I am looking for some open source DIY project to create a few carts for my japanese system.

Anybody know about these? Or maybe direct me on some master system japanese forum where I can ask for it?
Thanks!

Maybe have a look at this, it might help as a starting point:

Thanks I will check that out! Looks promising!
I guess the mapper will be always a problem, but sourcing cheap donors for mapper chips (and creating a design with these) is also an option, but that is for a different discussion.

I guess there is no bigger interest in making carts for japanese only system...
