A videogame cartridge copier copies videogame cartridges to ordinary
3-1/2" DS/HD floppy disks. The original cartridge is not needed to play
the game.
All videogame cartridge copiers have built-in support for battery backed-
up videogames, real time save, Gold Finger, which is a feature comparable
to Game Genie, and slow-motion modes to make games easier to play by
slowing them down. Real time save data and Gold Finger codes can be
saved to disk. On Double Pro Fighter X, real time save, Gold Finger, and
slow-motion modes are available on SNES only.
========================================================================4
Pro Fighter X Turbo (Super Nintendo) 32M min./32M max.
Abbreviated PFXT
Parallel interface option is optional. DSP is standard equipment.
1. PFXT has Gameboy copier option. With other systems such as the Game
Doctor SF VI, Super UFO Super Drive Pro.7, and Super Wild Card DX, this
feature is not available. To the Double Pro Fighter X's credit, this
feature is optional.
2. PFXT can maintain memory contents even when SNES is off. Large
videogames such as Super Street Fighter II (32M, 4 disks) require a long
time to load. With other systems such as the Double Pro Fighter X, Super
Wild Card DX, etc., the unit cannot maintain memory contents when SNES is
off and you re-load every time you turn the SNES on. To the Game Doctor
SF VI and Super UFO Super Drive Pro.7's credit, this feature is available
as standard equipment.
3. PFXT identifies videogame while loading videogame from disk.
4. PFXT has built-in Gold Finger codes (manufacturer claims over 400) for
hundreds of videogames. On other systems such as the Double Pro Fighter
X, Game Doctor SF VI, Super Wild Card DX, etc., this feature is not
available. To the Super UFO Super Drive Pro.7's credit, this feature is
standard equipment (built-in X-Terminator codes; manufacturer claims over
2,000).
5. PFXT has DSP, so that DSP-enhanced videogames can be played. With
other systems such as the Super UFO Super Drive Pro.7, Super Wild Card
DX, etc., this feature is not available. To the Double Pro Fighter X and
Game Doctor SF VI's credit, this feature is optional.
6. PFXT has parallel interface option. On the Super UFO Super Drive
Pro.7, this feature is not available. To the Double Pro Fighter X's
credit, this feature is optional. To the Game Doctor SF VI and Super
Wild Card DX's credit, this feature is standard equipment.
7. PFXT has artificial intelligence to defeat copy protection. The
following copy-protected videogame cartridges can be copied by the unit
without the need for a patch: (note: this list is incomplete.)
