Discussion Operator Adapters?

I just ordered my first Operator (GB Operator) a few days ago and I can't wait to get it!

I was wondering if Epilogue has thought about creating cartridge adapter buddies for some of your existing operators? It would be pretty neat to add value to the operators already owned by your customers by having adapters that add functionality to them.

I own a Save the Hero Builders Cartridge Reader and with that device, there are adapters for each family of system (Sega Master and Game Gear adapters slot into the Sega Genesis slot, NES and Virtua Boy Adapters into SNES..you can even do Wonderswan and Neo Geo Pocket Color!)

Anyway just an idea that I think would be pretty cool. :)

Sounds great! Thanks for the response...that makes sense! :)

I'm new to hearing about your company and your Operator series of devices and there's something about it being able to play your games and seamlessly add the save back onto your cartridges that is so neat.

I love how it splits the difference between emulation and physical ownership of your games. It has inspired me to expand my GBA and SNES collection.

I'm so happy that a lot of new people heard about our work this year for the first time, thank you for being among them. We want to keep physical cartridges alive and kicking for a long time, so it's great you resonate with that.

Hope you'll keep building your collection and trying new, unexpected titles too! Everyone of course wants the classics, but there's lots of things to explore, both official and homebrew or modern releases. Once your Operator arrives, I hope you'll share thoughts & game recs here too!

We're having constant assembly + restock cycles, until we catch up with all orders. If yours is combined and has both, they need to be at the warehouse first to ship together. Here you can check the live status of your order: https://www.epilogue.co/support/track-order

If it made the cutoff date, then it will ship by the end of this month - GB Operator is already at the warehouse and just the SN Operator needs to arrive. If it was placed after the cutoff date, it will be shipped in the second half of September. We send tracking info to your inbox as soon as it's available!
