The Behr Bonz multicart - 127 games for your VIC-20

C64/128 version please

Nick Coplin is working on that. However, unlike VIC, C64 carts do not have a standard "presentation" from the computer's point of view. Manyare more than 16k in size and have special systems for flipping visible content.

It would be possible to limit yourself to 16k only games that contain no special hardware but I already hear all the people complaining about missing games.

My personnal favorite C64 cart is Super Zaxxon... Much better than the disk based version. I truly don't have a clue how I could make a multicart that includes this game. It has 20k of ROM stored in a weird manner that uses minimal banking.

All the large capacity carts with 256k ROMs are completely off limits considering my own abilities and they are likely to be the most requested games.

My cart was mailed out last Wednesday, and I received it today!  Hooray, the postal service is not slow for once.  I will demonstrate it at this Saturday's TOGA meeting and this Sunday's FCUG meeting.

Hi Robert!

Good to know you got your Behr Bonz multicart.

I hope it performs to your satisfaction.

Keep us informed!

To canadian people:

I have been asked time and time again for shipping cost by canadian people who don't give me their postal code, assuming I can get the information only with a city's name. I can't.

Here is how you calculate the shipping rate if you live in Canada:

Go to http://www.canadapost.ca/personal/tools/rc/res/bin/rc_res-e.asp and enter my postal code (originator's postal code is H1Z 3P4), your postal code, a max weight of 0.2kg and dimensions of 3 x 15 x 25 cm then hit SUBMIT. Look up the total price for Xpresspost service (I refuse to ship fragile items like that through the normal service as they get damaged too often) and add 2$.

Canada post has flat rates for shipping to the US and europe. Accordingly, I charge 9$ for the US and 10$ for europe.
For these, I use the small packet airmail service.

I still need a volunteer to help me create a PAL version of the ROM.

Help me make a list of games for the PAL version and you'll get a free Behr Bonz cart!

The Behr Bonz multicart for the VIC-20 now has its own web page!

Wow, things go fast! 5 PAL units sold already!

I paid for a cart but i found it a little worrying that Eslapion seems to have removed his account here as it says anonymous.

[Jiffy]

He didn't remove his account, he has been banned from Amiga.org and his account was deleted, making all his former posts 'Anonymous'. Something to do with a discussion about a PSU which went a bit wrong...

[tokyoracer]

A bit wrong? How? What did he say? :-?
