The following two factory new and sealed items listed below ship the same day or next day once payment is received
1. One factory new ColecoVision/ADAM Ultimate SD Wafer Drive (a modern day Supergame wafer drive):
ATARIMAX has developed the Ultimate SD Wafer Drive that allows programmers to distribute ColecoVision/ADAM games and programs onto low cost and reliable SD cards (extremely reliable with no moveable parts, ATARIMAX offers a lifetime warranty on this product). The latest firmware for the Ultimate SD Wafer Drive supports up to 32GB SDHC cards (
With true 32GB storage space a game developer could literally make a Supergame that has over 10,000+ different game screens and with outstanding graphics and sound)
. In the future ATARIMAX plans on offering a firmware update that will allow consumers to use up to 2TB SDXC cards.
2. One 16GB SDHC wafer card with 2 games:
Fully licensed digital editions of Mr. Chin (32KB) and Mario Brothers (64KB) videogames are included on the SDHC wafer card. In the future some game developers will have the potential to make Supergames on a SD wafer card with a maximum game size being 32GB in size under the existing firmware. This Ultimate SD Wafer Drive also allows consumers to store every single public domain ColecoVision/ADAM cartridge ROM image every made onto one SD wafer card. Public domain cartridge ROM images can be downloaded from many websites and then stored onto a SD wafer card.
** This Ultimate SD Wafer Drive is perfect for game developers. Blank 2GB size SD wafer cards can be purchased from online venders for only around each (blank 8GB SDHC cards for around .50 each). Low cost blank 32GB SDHC wafer cards can be purchased from many different venders for under if one needs that much space to distribute games that they have personally developed. **
The following is some technical specs for the ATARIMAX ColecoVision/ADAM Ultimate SD Wafer Drive (a modern day Supergame wafer drive)
Firmware upgradable:
Each of the four major core components of the Ultimate SD Wafer Drive design can be upgraded instantly by just placing new firmware files on the SD card and turning on the ColecoVision or ADAM!. Firmware updates will be offered for free on the ATARIMAX website.
Current firmware Supports MMC, SD, and SDHC wafer cards. Both the FAT and FAT32 Filesystem is supported (full long filename support also).
Current firmware supports up to 32GB SDHC wafer cards for programmers that want to create huge Supergames and programs (The actual capacity of the current hardware is to allow up to 4MB of data to be loaded at any moment. A game developer can page data in and out from the 32GB SDHC wafer cards as needed, which means a programmer can literally make one large ColecoVision/ADAM videogame that takes up the entire 32GB of space on the SDHC wafer media).
A future firmware update from ATARIMAX will offer support for up to 2TB SDXC wafer cards with full support for exFAT file system
(to be released sometime in the future).
Requires NO PC software
: Compatible with any Device/OS that can read/write a standard FAT/FAT32 formatted SD and SDHC memory cards.
Support for all currently used ColecoVision bank switching methods, including "Mega-Cart" (up to 512KB) and Lord of the Dungeon NVRAM.
Supports all standard 32K or less ROM images (Many free public domain ColecoVision games can be downloaded online to a SD or SDHC wafer card and then inserted into the Ultimate SD Wafer Drive).
C Programming API allows advanced users to write ColecoVision/ADAM software that can interact with the onboard CPU and SD card!
Powerful on-screen menu software supports interactive SD card directory browsing, including sorting of long filenames.
Menu software includes support for viewing screen shots and reading game manuals right on the ColecoVision or ADAM computer!
Cartridge RESET switch means you never have to power cycle your ColecoVision/ADAM to return to the game menu.
Onboard 50 MIPS CPU w/ High Speed SD Card Interface.
Advanced reprogrammable Bank Switching "Mapper" logic

Highly reliable Ultimate SD Wafer Drive comes with a lifetime warranty(
If your Ultimate SD Wafer Drive ever fails, for any reason other than clear abuse/misuse, ATARIMAX will repair or replace it at no charge
)
.
Bonus: A 16GB SDHC wafer card is included with two licensed videogames
Mr. Chin (32KB) standard ColecoVision game.
Mario Brothers (64KB) Mega-CART game.
In addition, plenty of space on the SD wafer card for consumers to download free public domain ColecoVision games from many different websites.
In the future videogame developers might start releasing advanced Supergames on SD wafer media because of its high capacity of up to 32GB of storage space. SD wafer media is much more economical when compared to the price of an 8MB Supergame cartridge.
A future third party firmware update could make SD media 100% secure from being copied:
Videogame developers that want to protect their hard work from being copied, could in the future release secure encrypted Supergames onto SD media. With a third party firmware update to the Ultimate SD Wafer Drive, it would be possible to make an encryption system with a digital serial number key that would marry the SD card wafer Supergame to only one Ultimate SD Wafer Drive.
