    So. I was thinking of getting a PowerPak. Very expensive. Are they worth it ?

    Was looking to pay 50$ for Tecmo Super Bowl with updated rosters and thought I could just get a PowerPak instead.

    Thoughts ? :)

    If you're going to use it then yes it's worth it, I think they're cool, same as the Everdrive. It's obviously not a replacement for collecting games, but it's very handy not having to swap NES carts out and gives you access to loads of games, fan hacks and whatever else is out there including a demo of Battle Kid 2. :)

    How much are they ? Krikzz has a NES everdrive coming out soon should be around the €100 mark I think.

    135$ from retro usb I think (+ postage). I guess it's all to do with how much I'll get out of it. I wouldn't be looking to have it replace collecting games but would be nice to have a feel for games (not just emulation) before I buy and of course game hacks.

    hmmm. Might ... just.. go for it :)

    85 Euro (with shipping included) is all it cost me for my Famicom Everdrive from Krikzz. I doubt the price of the forthcoming NES version will be any different. Well worth it.
