Yeah. I think I will just order them off eBay. They are only about $10 a piece. On Fri, Dec 8, 2023 at 11:54 AM Chris Fala <chrisjpf33@gmail.com> wrote:
Jeff,
I would buy what you found on eBay. Cartridges seldom go bad since they are just a ROM chip. Of course there are exceptions, but it isn't a huge risk to purchase a used cartridge.
Duplicating them is another story. Certainly possible, but somewhat involved. We can talk more in person about it.

Does anyone have experience copying Commodore 64 cartridges? I'd like to make copies of a cartridge called "Music Machine". I see some on eBay, but they are untested. I'd rather not buy something that might not work. I need it for VCF when we do the NJ Maker's Day at InfoAge. We found it easier and faster to just pop in a cartridge for children and adults to try out music. We use cartridges because they are faster and easier to switch between programs such as paint, music, and programming.
In any case, if you have the ability to copy them, I would love to talk to you about it. We have one cartridge that works.
Thanks!
