Hmm... That sounds really odd.
Marshall did excessive amounts of testing on his 64Drive, so the game should not do this.
It may either be,
- Your N64 is overheated (RCP / CPU / RDRAM)
- The SDRAM in the 64Drive is faulty or the file did not 'buffer' correctly from the SD card?
- The ROM you used is bad?
Those are just some ideas from a moron who knows nothing about the N64, but Marshall would have the correct answer for you nonetheless.

Re: Cart emulator progress thread
The main races, single or multiplayer races, are perfect, but battle is slightly slow. I don't think it's a defect on the cart, maybe some software bug. I dunno... I'll check an actual cart side to side, and see if it's for real, or if I'm imagining things.
Any other game runs perfect IMO

Re: Cart emulator progress thread
all Aussie mario kart levels have super speed Rainbow road when you play 4 player on it, it might just be mario kart
Re: Cart emulator progress thread
That's how the mario kart game/n64 is. It has nothing to do with the 64drive.

Re: Cart emulator progress thread
Just wanted to say I compared the 64drive running Mario Kart, and the original cart. THey're the same, so it was a wrong impression. I'm very happy with my unit. Have you guys received different cart colors from Marshall? mine's blue with a brownish label .
And now, some stuff I'd suggest as updates and developments (I'm not demanding anything, just wishing ) :
- controller pak saves to the CF or microSD card
- improved mp3 player. I'd be happy if only the next song started without me having to select it. Also, the songs start like 1 or 2 seconds forward, not fatal, but sometimes anoying.
- If possible, an easy way for us mortals to convert videos like the one Marshall shared.
- Text manuals and gamefaqs . The Colecovision flashcart supports displaying the manual for each game in text. I know there aren't text transcripts of all the manuals around, but it would be cool to put a gamefaq and being able to give it a quick read on the screen. Cheat codes galore!
- Cheat device support. I don't know if this is really possible at all. The NES Powerpak has Game Genie code support.

Re: Cart emulator progress thread
Could you please post a picture of your blue 64drive? I always wondered what it would look like in a colored cartridge
As for suggestions:
If you press C-Down the game list is really scrolling super fast. Maybe one( ) could make it so that if you press C-Right the game list just skips to the next 9 games.

Re: Cart emulator progress thread
Mine's blue.
Re: Cart emulator progress thread
I wonder if there is a golden one
Imagine 10 years from now these special 64drives may be worth something to a collector ... who will be the first to have it in all available colors

Re: Cart emulator progress thread
Oh man, if you ordered yours in September and still haven't got it, then I've still got ages to wait for mine.
At least a month anyway.
I wonder how many of these things Marshall has actually sold?

Re: Cart emulator progress thread
How'd you get a blue one? Make it yourself?
Re: Cart emulator progress thread
Marshall asked me if I wanted a blue one, and I said sure.

Re: Cart emulator progress thread
When I unplug a controller when playing F-Zero X on 64drive and plug it in again, I can't use it anymore until I press Reset on the console. The same with every controller but with this game only.
Is it a glitch in a game or in 64drive?
