Hello everybody. I'm looking or some info about the best method to dump Nintendo 64 ROMs and I think here I can find the right people to solve my problem . I recently could get my hands on a Nintendo 64 prototype cartridge and I'm looking for a method to dump the ROM on my computer. I own a Retrode 2 and I tried using it but it doesn't work properly. I know it can be used a GameShark with a particular method but I'm a bit worried the GameShark can corrupt or damage the ROM. What's the best method to dump the ROM? I need just 2 things: 1) The method must be safe for the prototype and not ruin or damage the ROM chip 2) I need a perfect dump, no errors or problems, so I should also find a way to verify everything went ok. I know my requests are too hard to satisfy but I hope someone here has the right solution! Thanks again
Thank you. I knew about this method but I don't know everything about it. I actually own a Gameshark v 3.2 and I'm afraid of trying the method with this device. Do you know something more about 64drive? Is it safe for the ROM chip?
It should be. I trust marshal’s work. Let’s just say If I had a proto, I would use marshal’s tools to dump it.
I use sanni's cart reader (alot!). its dumps ROM and any save type straight to SD card. https://github.com/sanni/cartreader Plus you can write to the chinese n64 repro boards too
Thank you. I've just ordered it because I want the most reliable method ever. I know it's a bit expensive but I can also use it to play ROMs on my N64 so I will not use it just once. From the website it seems to be easy to use.
Thank you. I'm a bit worried because it seems to be hard to realize. I need something pretty easy to use
