Nintendo 64 Flashcart Comparison
Feature | SummerCart64 | ED64 (Clone) (e.g., “ED64 Plus”) | EverDrive-64 X7 (Krikzz) |
64DD support | Built-in hardware emulation. Runs raw 64DD disk images, including cart+disk combos and multi-disk. | No hardware emulation. Some units run 64DD cart-conversion builds only; results vary by firmware/model. | No hardware emulation. 64DD play typically requires cart-conversion builds, not raw disks. |
Load speed | ~23.8 MiB/s over microSD and USB-C. | Varies by clone; not consistently published. | “Fast loading” up to ~23 MB/s. |
Max ROM / working RAM | 64 MiB SDRAM + 16 MiB QSPI (2 MiB reserved) → effective up to ~78 MiB ROM coverage. | Typically 64 MiB (depends on revision). | 64 MB SDRAM. |
Save handling | Automatic write-back during gameplay (no reset ritual). | Many clones require pressing RESET to back up saves to SD. | Save without reset (auto-backup). |
Supported save types | EEPROM 4k/16k; SRAM 256k / 3×256k / 1 M; FlashRAM 1 M. | Common N64 save types supported; behavior differs by firmware. | EEPROM 4k/16k; SRAM; FlashRAM; RTC. |
Region/CIC | UltraCIC-based, auto NTSC/PAL; can boot from 64DD IPL. | “Multi-CIC compatible” claims vary by vendor; behavior differs. | UltraCIC III with auto region. |
microSD support | microSD, cards up to 2 TB supported. | Many limit to SD/SDHC (≤32 GB); varies by unit. | microSD/SDHC commonly used; capacity support depends on OS version. |
USB for dev | USB-C with open command-line deploy tool and documented protocol. | Often no USB; even when present, tooling/compatibility varies. | USB supported for dev workflows. |
Open-source | Yes (GPLv3) hardware/firmware/menu. | No (proprietary clones). | No (commercial/closed). |
Built-in / menu emulators | Launches GB/GBC/NES/SNES emulators via the flashcart menu (run on N64). | Community menus exist; emulator support varies by firmware. | Built-in .nes support; additional emulators via menu folders. |
