Getting a SNES cart flashed

CiDeRmAn

Okay,
So I don't have a SNES Everdrive but I do want a cart flashed with the New Super Mario Land binary.
I have a Nintendo Power Super Famicom flash cart but no means to flash it.
So, any suggestions how I might go about making a dedicated NSM Land cart for the Super Famicom??

It looks like it would be a whole lot cheaper/easier to get a Super Everdrive as it isn't straight forward if you are just looking for a one off re-program

Or get an eprom flashed with the .bin and pop it into a donor cart?

Thats the other option should you want a perm version of the game

Possible to build a DIY flasher for those Nintendo Power carts

Although much easier to just fit a new eprom to a donor cart. Assuming this new games doesn't require any of the additional chips

So... can anyone out there help with the following?

1. An Eprom
2. Flashing the Eprom
3. Soldering the Eprom into a donor cart or fresh blank PCB

Cheeky git... I know...

Let me look into it

As far as I know its a surface mounted eeprom, no one's going to enjoy that experience:D

Ah, even I could make a Mario RPG JPN->ENG cart - its more the prepping of the ROM I've never looked into and would be a 'suck it and see' only to find out if it works after its soldered in which could be annoying if yea get it wrong

That Mario Land is a 16Mb game so just need a suitable donor or repo cart to lash it onto.

These seem like decent enough repo carts to use, I'm sure others are available but saw these one first..

I'm sure I have a FIFA or something in a drawer!
Let me know what components I need to pick up and I'll get them.
This could be great!

I remember a friend I use to go to school with in the early 90's, around 1992', he had equipment to re flash Sega cartridges. I use to think it was amazing. His father use to travel to Hong Kong for work a few times a year and he would bring back really interesting stuff like this. He flashed me a copy of Sonic 3. It worked great in my Megadrive !

I’d be interested in getting 2 snes cartridges flashed.

Both rom hacks of Super Mario Kart. (Item hack and speedo hack)

This is a completely non pirate event as I’m willing to use copies of SMK for this purpose. The carts are needed for training towards next years world championship so any help here would be very much appreciated

As a technical exercise, Super Mario Land on the SNES is interesting, but it's not very playable and they chose a terrible art style.
