I know that Atari has some 32 games in one cartridge, also Game Boy Advance has some illegal 117 games in 1 cartridge as well.

Anyone know of any others? And have any links or pics of these?

You can get the Atari Joystick with a built-in Atari and built-in games. I think it comes with 20. There are also GBA Flash Cards, where you can upload ROMS from your computer onto a GBA cartridge. You can get the carts with different capacity, I think they come in 128, 256, 512, an 1024 megabits of storage. Obviously, however, they are illegal.

You know those GameBoy Advance carts that claim to have (number) games? Usually ONE of them is a normal GameBoy Advance game, and the rest are games running on an outdated version of Pocket NES, and are unplayable because they can't be supported anyway, like Duck Hunt, Hogan's Alley, Gyromite...

I have a few GBA Flash Carts, and I highly reccomend them if you want to take a whole bunch of games with you at once. It's really fun and convenient!

I remember seeing a multicart for GB like 7-8 years ago... who somebody at school had.

Action 52 anyone! If you see that game, buy it! All games are so fun! *cough*

There's a 76 in-1 multicart for NES, that's actually 76 different games.

I have the rom of it, it's pretty cool.

Extremely common. Well, moreso than you'd believe. Go to some Eastern European countries and you'll find a ton of NES pirates like that.

I always liked 31-in-1 myself.

I have a decent GB multicart with gems like Wario Blast, Jurassic Park 2, Crazy Castle 2, Tetris (well, I can play multiplayer now, at least), The Smurfs, Darkwing Duck, Talespin, ect. It claims to have 17 games, but it's more like 12. But those 12 are mostly great games, so who cares.

I also have that Namco joystick with Pac-Man, Galaxian, Rally X, Dig Dug and Bosconian. A nice collection.

But yeah, stay the hell away from Action 52. There's more action in a bowl of oatmeal.

GB carts are rarer but if you're lucky you can find a good one like that. Most pirate carts that you see now for the NES have those CRAPPY fighting games.

I'd like to find one of those joysticks in stores. Not too common here.

No, they're not. Just because Nintendo says they are, doesn't make it so. If you use it with games you legally own, or homebrew ROMs that are legally distributed, then you are fully within the law to use a flash linker.

I think it depends how stores advertise the things... Obviously if a place selling them says "Play hundreds of great GBA games!", then they're doomed.

anyone played 'polystation'? it is an imitation of playstation which uses cartdriges instead of cd's. there are usually a lot of nes games in it, but some (like smb) are divided in parts. For example: in the same cartridge there's a smb section from world 1 to world 5, and there's then another one from world 6 to world 8.
It is pretty...meh its not the same thing

There's tons of devices like that. One of them was actually on a shopping channel here. They showed it playing such hit Japanese games like Battle City.

Usually the unit is composed of the game controller.

I have one of those. None of the built-in games are very good (Well.. Tetris 2 is good fun, and SMB is always there..), but it does play Famicom carts. I picked up Wai Wai World 2 and Adventure Island from eBay. Good, cheap fun.

$5 says they reverse-engineered the Famicom for that.

Most built-in games are from the mid-80's - Nintendo titles and basically any cart under 64kb.

Yup. As far as I know, it was released in Japan only and made an appearance in America on SEVERAL pirated carts/portable systems.
