EverDrive GG x7 Available For Order

Posted on by Bob

Krikzz has just released the updated version of his Everdrive ROM cart for the Sega Game Gear:  https://everdrive.me/cartridges/everdrive-gg-x7.html

The x7 offers quite a few upgrades over the original, including save states, in-game menu and instant loading!  Here’s the full list of features:

  • Max ROM size: 4MByte
  • Max SAVE RAM size: 32KByte
  • Save States function and In-Game menu function
  • Instant loading
  • GG and SMS games are supported
  • Low power consumption
  • High quality 4-layers PCB
  • Soft reset to menu
  • Micro SD cards are supported
  • OS supports up to 1000 files per folder

While the Game Gear + SMS library is under 1.5GB total, the cheapest Micro SD cards available these days are much larger than that.  I suggest either getting the cheapest, which is a $6, 16GB card that’s a bit slow to transfer files from your PC to the card.  If transfer time from your PC is important to you, try the 32GB faster one for just over $10.  Loading from the card on your Game Gear should be the same for both though, as individual Game Gear games are really small:
