Looking to ROM dump just a handful of games, so I’m trying not to spend hundreds on a Sanni or Retrode. I saw this on AliExpress for $15.

I’ve personally had good luck with Alibaba and Aliexpress, but I recognize that this could just straight not work. There’s no documentation, but it claims the game data will show up like files on a USB flash drive.

Anybody know where this design came from?

Seems fishy to me. But they are saying to message them for more info.

Maybe theres some local club or makerspace where you could ask if anyone have a reader they can lend you. If its just a few carts and a one time job that would be enough
