Hi, I have an evercade and all the games released so far. I haven't played with it yet because I wanted to dump the games and I think it saves to the cartridge and don't want to risk contaminating the data.
There is an article:

This suggests that the cartridges are pretty much SD cards with a gameboy interface.
If I set up a similar reading setup and DD all the ROM data, would that make a decent dump? Would no intro be interested in such a project?

Re: evercade
A dd dump should be fine. No-Intro would absolutely be interested 
Its a very good idea to use this linux distro (as a live USB/DVD) to dump external media with much less risk of the operating system writing to it - by default, most operating systems will change the metadata on inserted media.

Turns out my soldering skills are abysmal and I've made no progress in creating this device. If anyone is UK based and able to cobble something together and send it to me, I'm more than happy to pay.

Re: evercade
I'll post a message to VGPC (game preservation discord server) asking if anyone could make one.
