hey iv looked around but cant seem to find a list of finished homebrew which is free to download and play. i was able to find alterego and the flappy bird port. i'm sure theres more, isnt there?

as a bonus maybe a list of finished homebrew which requires a purchase?

There's an incomplete list here: http://wiki.nesdev.com/w/index.php/Projects

The Super Bat Puncher demo is my favourite homebrew NES thing yet made.

There's another list at: http://nesworld.com/article.php?system= ... eshomebrew
And an obviously subjective "best of" list: http://nesworld.com/article.php?system= ... rew_bestof

Heck, some homebrew games are licensed under terms that let you make and sell copies of them.

Instead of posting again I was curious if there are any projects that have finished with physical carts for purchase?

A lot of homebrew developers who sell cartridges ban downloading because it would compete with cart sales. Did you want a list of games that are both sold on cart and free to download, or did you want a list of homebrew games that are exclusively on cart?

I just want homebrew that I can purchase on a cart. So I can add a few to my physical collection.

Just found retro zone is this the only place ? The battle kid games look good.
