+retroclouds Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Klaus of Team Europe has been working on a new cartridge for the Tomy Tutor: You can read all about it here: https://team-europe.blogspot.com/2020/09/tomy-tutorpyuuta-ultimate-multicart.html There’s still some space left on the cartridge. Everyone who contributes a new game to the cartridge (new homebrew) gets an Ultimate Cartridge for free (you only pay shipping costs). Thank you Klaus!

wolhess Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Hi, are topics related to the TI-74 also a part of this forum? I think the TI-74 is similar to the CC40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the TI-74 is similar to the CC40. I think so, but who am I to say. When I did the poll and requested this subforum I had standalone systems in mind with a Texas Instruments CPU belonging to the 16 bit 9900 family (and did explicitly rule out the Z80). But the TMS7000 family is a Texas Instruments CPU, so... ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the construction, to protect both sides of the PCB. Only last month I learned it was called a "Standoff Sandwich" or "Clock Cage".

+Ksarul Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Is this one going to have Door Door on it? It is the only cartridge game I know of that isn't on the list . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kl99 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I wrote to the Developer of the Cartridge, also named Klaus, also from Austria, yet somebody else. ? I havent heard about Door Door yet, but the Pyuta MkII BASIC1 cartridge would be nice to get on that ultimate cart. That one is a normal cartridge without extra logic. According to the floodgap website it is 16KB and matching the ROM1 of the US Tutor. The Basic1 cartridge provides the american BASIC on the MKII. I am still looking for a real cartridge. ? Is anyone having that to provide a dump? The header might be different (compares to the ROM1) to identify correctly in the MKII. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flottmann1 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) I found here a Picture from the BASIC1 Cartridge https://www.mercari.com/jp/items/m69339598721/?_s=U2FsdGVkX18T_vq6d72Jga359_7UnLuNDYWrlI9gCHu16-PdooB6hMLlViy5eJflXv-rAlv9tu9IOFpGab6pxiamEaCcQ3JYv-FNjc31kZDjNxYbX2txFzsYUm8FhJpn very interesting, has a printer interface, I think it's for the Pyuta not for a MKII Edited October 10, 2020 by Flottmann1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 It'll be interesting to see if the Tomy Tutor ever gets a "FlashROM like" cartridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one for the Pyuuta plugs into the back (like the Game Adaptor) and includes a Centronics Parallel Interface. The one for the Pyuuta MK-II looks like a standard cartridge and plugs into the cartridge port. The MK-II has a standalone printer interface box that also plugs into the expansion port--that was sold separately from the BASIC-1 cartridge. I have all three of these cartridges/interface types in my Pyuuta collection. I am missing a number of the Pyuuta cassette tapes though. . .and then my collection will be complete. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
