Works perfectly! Great flash cartridge

Posted by Marq9 on Sep 30th 2022

Finding proper nesos files was a bit tricky; N8 Pro OS worked, but N8 OS didn't

Got NES game loaded with no issue on Famicom!

Awesome

Posted by Gus Martinez on Aug 4th 2022

I’ve never used an Everdrive before so I was a bit concerned on how to use it. But needless to say it was the easiest process; from adding games to playing them. It was so easy. I can’t wait to by one for my SNES.

The best way to just play the games on real hardware

Posted by Andrew Tompkins on Sep 20th 2021

Works great with everything I've tried, not everyone needs savestates and fancy features when playing on real hardware. Works great with US games and Japanese games, especially Disk System games and games with expansion audio. A real one stop shop for playing whatever you want on your real Famicom.

A higher level of gaming

Posted by Bartłomiej Szulter on May 17th 2021

N8 is a high quality product. The plastic is thick and not brittle. The SMD chips on the motherboard are arranged in an orderly manner. Good solder. The PCB is 1mm. The system and game roms are placed directly on the SD card. When there are problems, we format the card and it continues to work. The Stone Age Gamer store does the job. The cartridge was delivered to Poland in less than a month. Great packed package. I would highly recommend.
