I do not think so. DaveC should have received one but it was the last one. There is not enough interest for another run. Sorry.

Thanks for the reply, and that's too bad. Is it possible to get the design files and firmware for personal, non-commercial use? Certainly willing to pay for that personal use in case it helps

If there is another batch I am interested in two of these. Very cool, and I saw a photo of one attached to an FPGA MSX clone recently which piqued my interest

How do you all unpanelize/depanelize the PCB's for programmable game cards? Is there a way to do this safely (without SMD damage) without a specialized tool? I've separated mouse-bite arrays before using regular cutters, but that doesn't seem as promising for these V-groove arrays

Received today (hat and case), assembled, and now put to work reading my small Lynx cart collection after which I intend to leave the original carts packed away and play from the RetroHQ flash cart. This is a great little device with quite usable software and the stylish case is a nice touch too

I'm hoping whitelynx.fi will again sell the PCB's at some point to make dedicated patched/homebrew game carts too, for those situations where the RetroHQ flash cart is overkill but rewriting is needed occasionally

For the specific case of SG-1000 on Game Gear a new adapter with palette set-up and BIOS-appeasement would be ideal. Until that's a real thing, there are a few patches I threw together over here which would require flashing a new copy and (in some cases for BIOS-ful Game Gear models) defanging/removing the Game Gear BIOS: http://www.smspower.org/forums/16912-SG1000SC3000MarkIIIJPSMSRArrExportSMSRArrGameGearConverter#102434— so far it only covers Zaxxon, Penguin Land, Bomb Jack, Q*Bert, Chack'n Pop, Wonder Boy & Championship LodeRunner, though the same ideas should work with other games provided a z80 machine code cheat sheet and minor changes

This is far from perfect, but I have made a first attempt at a terminfo for ATASCII terminals. I built this from descriptions on Wikipedia, documentation for BobTerm, and using the Atari Terminal Simulator (ATS) running inside Wine. It has never been tested with a real Atari, so your mileage will likely vary. Please feel free to use it, comment on it, criticize it, and modify it — my hope is to eventually have a description good enough for inclusion in the master terminfo database.

Here's the URL where I'll put any updates:

I've also attached an automatic termcap conversion, in case the system you're connecting to does not use terminfo.

edit: i forgot to mention that this has also been tested using the ATASCII mode of SyncTERM, where it works somewhat
