Title: Sega CD Backup Cart alternatives Post by: ProjectG.U.E.S.T. on April 25, 2013, 03:16:36 PM Howdy folks! It's been a long while since I posted. I've got a question... See, I just won a copy of Shining Force CD on Ebay and I'm crazy excited to play it but I know I'll need a Backup cart for it. But those danged things are so expensive. I know there are the Action Replays for the Saturn but I haven't seen any off-brand alternatives for the CD.
Anybody know of anything or have any suggestions? Thanks in advance! Title: Re: Sega CD Backup Cart alternatives Post by: Cobra on April 27, 2013, 09:11:00 PM Not to my knowledge. So it'll definitely be too big for the system back-up?

I did read that JP ones tend to be a bit cheaper but require modification of the system/cart in order to properly fit into the system.

If you went the JP route you should be able to use it with a 32x. If I remember correctly the cart slot will allow JP carts to fit.

It is probably way more expensive but it can do all sorts of neat things.
