FS: TONS of blank Sega Genesis development boards

Thanks Stone, 8 megabits is pretty low, I assumed they'd take at least 4M ROMs. Blah, it wouldn't have killed them to put a dip switch to future-proof them. Good luck with Virtua Racing then Assembler So the proto is <= 8M and doesn't use a SVP?

But actually I was curious about the non-ROM chips on the 8 socket board heh, I don't understand why there are three chips when only one is needed to decode the ROMs. I assume they are unnecessary buffers. On retail carts the only time there is more than one logic chip is when the cart has save memory and these don't appear to have save memory. The Sega test boards I've seen actually were 32M (8 x 4M) and had save RAM, so that's why I questioned if Sega made these; but if the 8 socket only supports 1M ROMs they could just be really old.

 

I have a Virtua Racing proto myself but it sure isn't on a board I have ever seen before because of that extra graphics chip...
