A videogame cartridge copier copies videogame cartridges to ordinary 3-1/2"
DS/HD floppy disks. The original videogame cartridge is not needed to play
the videogame.

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 videogames easier to play by
slowing them down. Real time save data and Gold Finger codes can be saved to
disk. On DPFX, real time save, Gold Finger, and slow-motion modes are
available on SNES only. On SSC, real time save and slow motion modes are not
available.
============================================================================4
Pro Fighter X Turbo (SNES) 32M min./ 32M max.

- Abbreviated PFXT
- Available in memory capacity/capacities of:
32M

Parallel interface option is optional. DSP is standard equipment.

1. PFXT has Gameboy copier option. With other systems such as the GDSF6,
SUFO Pro.7, and SWCDX, this feature is not available. To the DPFX'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 DPFX, SWCDX, etc., the unit cannot maintain
memory contents when SNES is off and you re-load every time you turn the SNES
on. To the GDSF6 and SUFO 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 DPFX, GDSF6, SWCDX,
etc., this feature is not available. To the SUFO Pro.7's credit, this
feature is standard equipment (built-in X-Terminator codes; manufacturer
claims over 2,000).
5. PFXT can test its memory and BRAM for defects. With other systems such as
the DPFX, the unit cannot test its memory and BRAM for defects. To the
GDSF6's credit, the unit can test its memory, BRAM, ROM, and disk drive for
defects. To the SUFO Pro.7's credit, the unit can test its memory and ROM
for defects. To the SWCDX's credit, the unit can test its memory, BRAM, and
disk drive for defects.
6. PFXT has DSP, so that DSP-enhanced videogames can be played. With other
systems such as the SUFO Pro.7, SWCDX, etc., this feature is not available.
To the DPFX and GDSF6's credit, this feature is optional.
7. PFXT has parallel interface option. On the SUFO Pro.7, this feature is
not available. To the DPFX's credit, this feature is optional. To the GDSF6
and SWCDX's credit, this feature is standard equipment.
