Hey Sumez, I don't find your comment to be of bad taste, neither offensive.
In fact, I felt it was true and sincere.
Lidnariq's right...
To produce something here and export is complicated.
Importing things is most of the time prohibitive.
I know many people are doing loads of money with bootlegs/repros, but the ones I do are just for my amusement and fun (and for my kids too
).
I usually try to do something different, be it on the program that is in the ROM or the label.
Here are some examples:

Although in some labels the printer was not very kind to me.
I don't intend to sell or trade any of them, at least while I'm still alive (according to statistics, I have around 30 more years of life).
I also tried to find the ROM for Journey to Sillius Anarchy Edition to make my own cartridge.
The creator unfortunately didn't agree with the idea, wich is a option I respect and didn't bug him/her any more.
For now they're about 120. Many are originals, but most are reproductions, pirates/bootlegs or fixed ones.
This is kind of a hobby for me, with the nice pay off that I can play the real games on the real thing
.
I also use old and discarded parts most of the time, since buying most of these parts are difficult or expensive right here where I live (in fact, you may have noticed that in the location field there's coordinates to a point very near of my house. Feel free to take a look at my city on Googlemaps).
I'm also trying to learn this very beautiful and intricate science of micro electronics.
And in this forum, I've learned a lot of things!
I really have a lot to thank for the people here!
