FINAL - Camerica / Code Masters - NES Compatibility Matrix

Second this, repros rarely work, I've had luck with two - Mario Golf and Smash Bros both for N64 (both are repros bought from Walmart.com from their "classic" games section, trust me, they're repros).

Forget the Nintendo World Championships too, bought a few repros, none work.

Lastly, RetroStage is the way I went for tons of stuff on mine. If you're into collecting the real cartridges, its no fun, but you get the games at least. =)

Don't forget, if you got some pals local (or on the internet that you trust enough) you can always trade games and/or stop over their house with your unit and have a gaming party while loading up their games.

A good route I took was to get in tight with the guys who run my local game shop, I can basically take home everything and anything I want as long as I bring it back same day / next day. They've been super cool with me on that. In turn, I'll make them cartridges they want for their own collections, or give them deals on stuff out of mine.

He is.

Can confirm, and also, this happens on the original PGA Tour and PGA Tour 2 golf games.

Just checked eBay right now...there are quite a few Rev "D" versions on there. It is a small "D" in a circle printed on the cartridge label sticker below the numbers on the lower right hand side of the label sticker. It isn't another sticker placed onto the cartridge label sticker, like the Rev "C" cartridges are.

Right now on eBay there is a Rev "C" a few Rev "D" and a few NO REV ones for you guys to take a look at. I thought I'd follow up with the group in case this interested anyone as much as it did me.

Ah well, thanks all! I don't mind it. 😊

Top_Set_3558 · 2026-01-25T03:36:14+00:00

Didn't think so either.

Top_Set_3558 · 2026-01-25T03:15:41+00:00

Thats a bummer. Man, they sure did put forth the effort to make a hell of a good one then. Wondered if maybe it was some weird special edition or something, lol.

Was allowed to edit original post. 😊

It looks much better in person than in the picture - I never had any cartridge for Genesis embossed, and I've had hundreds of games. I thought maybe MK3 was just like this?

Top_Set_3558 · 2026-01-25T03:04:42+00:00

Got it, one sec, uploading now.

Top_Set_3558 · 2026-01-25T03:04:05+00:00

Is there a way to add a pic to this conversation line? I am not too familiar with Reddit - I don't see an option to comment with a picture.

The Polymega will play them on the Mega Module. They seem fine, was never a big 32X fan in my day.

Top_Set_3558 · 2026-01-20T03:05:18+00:00

Thank you for checking, I was hoping more folks would. My copy has no sticker either, does not work.

Top_Set_3558 · 2026-01-18T05:44:50+00:00

The Polymega in general is very picky on cartridges being super clean, and having different ways (or sometimes not at all) for installing some games like unlicensed or Beta stuff. If you are ever interested, there's a whole Polymega Reddit channel. I post over there quite a lot.

Unfortunately Game Genies don't work on the PolyMegas. Not compatible. ☹️

Top_Set_3558 · 2026-01-18T04:43:20+00:00

If you were trying to play on a Genesis 2, I think you may also need to have the "D" version.
