The super gameboy technology still blows my mind! Still use the one I got from KayBee toys back in the day on the Analogue Super NT- looks and sounds fantastic.
Don't forget, the SD2SNES can also play SA1 enhancement chip games too. So, not only will this play retail SA1 games, such as Super Mario RPG, Kirby Super Star, Kirby Dreamland 3, Parodius 3, and more, but also new game slow down fixes, by Vitor Vilela (which includes Contra III and Gradius III). The SD2SNES is pretty amazing.
@@SC-lc7tm Yes, the FXPro is the SD2SNES Pro, with a new name and sticker. This was done due to copyrights on the SD name. The Pro versions contain a more powerful FPGA chip, so it's a bit more capable. You'd have to Google around to find what those things are. I can tell you that I own the old SD2SNES and it does quite a bit. Loads all DSP 1-4 (Mario Kart), FX (StarFox), SA-1 (Mario RPG), CX4 (Mega Man X3), MSU-1 (Super Burnout), and much more. (Edit), they've also added more exciting abilities to the original SD2SNES / FX2SNES. This includes emulating the Super Game Boy ² cartridge (So now you can play those games without requiring the large SGB² cart, and load original .GB roms.), and someone was able to get a NES game working on it (Mega Man 6), along with MSU-1 PlayStation version MM6 music playing (as an optional soundtrack). I have a feeling we will see a lot more NES games working on it soon, ;)
A tutorial on how to actually get the SGB2 working would've been nice. As it stands, I cannot for the life of me get this to work. Followed the readme included with the fw and have all the necessary files but everytime I try to load a GB game, it just freezes at "Loading..." Not a huge deal as I already have a SGB2 and Everdrive (which for me is the only way to go apparently) but I would've liked to see it working.
Thanks for the vid! I wonder why the aspect ratio of the SGB2 looks a little stretched? I wonder if there's any way to fix this on the Sd2SNES/FxPAK Pro?
The Super Gameboy support is amazing, but I just wish it were possible to play Gameboy Color games someday. I was so excited to try out Zelda Oracle but it didn't work :/
I have a question, I was checking out FXPak Pro, which I understood it was previously named SD2SNES, just changed name due to trademark. But I think I read somewhere that FKPak Pro may have extra features not in SDSNES but was a SD2SNES Pro. I'm not even sure if SD2SNES Pro exists? I saw a deal on SD2SNES but not sure that before buying it. Thank you.
I couldn't get Super Game Boy/2 support to work on my FXPak Pro. So I tried an entirely different microSD card to start from scratch, used the latest beta firmware, got the correct files in the correct spots, and Super Game Boy 2 support still doesn't work. Is there something fundamental that I am overlooking?
I have an EZ junior flash cart and it works with super gameboy it’s pretty cool and works flawlessly with every game. Plays hacks n homebrew no problem. Has a burton on front for this purpose to get past the boot up screen the sgb has. Not sure about a krikzz one but at the ridiculous price I’d expect it too. Highly recommend an EZ junior if you have a super gameboy hands down no brainer. I did have to load an update file to the downloadable kernel that’s r
@@LonSeidman I typically watch all my UA-cam content on FireFox at UA-cam.com on my HTPC with an old LG 42LC7D a buddy gave me as my current monitor. Not sure if it has anything to do with it being 720p.
The Super Game Boy feature does not impress me because you could just simply purchase a Super Game Boy cart adapter. Get it to run GBA games! Now that would be impressive.

Hey, I also got my SGB from KB! I remember buying that and Link's Awakening together with my birthday money. What a great peripheral.

are there a difference between this SD2SNES vs FXPak Pro?

same!

We need to get you a set of HD Retrovision cables and maybe some Console5 membranes for your controller!
Shoutout to Lon from another Nutmegger retro gaming/computing fan
I would love to get a flash cart for my genesis one day especially the one that emulates sega cd!
I have the MEGA SD and it’s super cool, definitely a must buy.
EverDrive Pro now does this--slightly lower cost than the MegaSD.
The Super Gameboy support is amazing, but I just wish it were possible to play Gameboy Color games someday. I was so excited to try out Zelda Oracle but it didn't work :/
They're completely different systems... That would be like hoping to play Super Metroid on an NES, it ain't happening.
Nice video lon. Also I have a question do you have a laptop or PC recommendation that I can buy for less then 350 that I can play games on?
@Arthur Feitosa thanks, can you give me some names so I can look at them I'm barely new at laptops and dk much
Check out the Acer Aspire 5 - great deal but you'll need to add a stick of RAM for full performance: lon.tv/9pkt6

an sd2snes pro/FXPAK Pro allows for msu-1 on sa-1 chip games, but im not sure what else has been added
Question why do youtube video not mention Micro SD cards and say just SD cards?

Never mind, apparently they needed to be ".gb", not ".GB". Silly that it wouldn't recognize the different cases, but whatever.
Please help... For the game boy games to work, do I need the 1.10.3 firmeware? and which type of roms, gb?... Thanks
I have a question, what happens if you use the super gameboy with a gameboy flash cart?

That shirt had a bad moire pattern watching on my big screen.
What TV and app ?

It's not that bad on mine, I'm using Kodi (libreElec) HTPC on a 70" UHD TV
How can i put in Sd2snes game genie code?
Why did you use composite?
Retrotink has S-Video.
I don't have an s-video cable
@@LonSeidman You really should get at least one.
They are less then $10 and work for SNES, N64 and Gamecube.
I’m waiting for an official update for the firmware
manichispanic999 - me too, I just got the FXPAK Pro and love it so far. I don’t want to mess it up! 😆
I got big rake of leaked never been released gb games. Some real decent ones but mainly puzzle games
Lon, i gotta know where you got that MUG!!!
.gb files dont appear on my SD2SNES how can i play pokemon on my sd2snes lmao

You need a Turbo Drive.
Is there one for the European/japanese SNES ?
Yes it works with all regions I just have mine in a us cart
@@LonSeidman Thank you very much, the functionality this offers is amazing.
If you’re looking to get one now, the SD2SNES Pro was rebranded as FXPAK Pro in early 2020 because of a trademark conflict.
Super NT out of stock since 2019.
Black ones are available from Analogue. Although for me, because of shipping even in the US, it was cheaper to get one on eBay.
👍👍👍
Hi nice video!
no love for the real thing
At almost $200, it better be good.
Truly a favorite Flash cart of mine.
It is
just wait for a new version next month for 300
@@arthurcollector4002 they are making a newer version? You have any info on that :p?
