Description

These are a few different types of retro gaming cartridges/carts for use in a Zaparoo (TapTo) NFC Mister gaming setup.

NES, SNES, N64, GB, Atari 2600, 3.5" floppy, a CD/DVD and my 'custom cart'.

 

They all use the standard 1" circular NFC tags I have been using with the self adhesive. You can get them at amazon like these that work with Zaparoo:

I am sure there are many, many others like those. These just worked for me and I liked the adhesive already on them. These are sized to slip into the 1" hole in each cart.

 

These all were designed to work with the reader enclosure I made (card reader model is uploaded to MakerWorld HERE).

And a SEGA cart added by itself here - SEGA CART.

 

None are 100% accurate, they are just an homage to the original designs. They are designed to just fit in the reader and kind of be scaled to reflect the original carts or medium.

 

Attached is a PDF that just shows the size of labels that I printed on mine. 

 

You can single color print these, but I did paint these for use in an AMS for a little more fun… especially the gold PCB contacts.

 

The colors are all just grey, black, white and yellow (actually use GOLD if you have it for the PCB effect).

Change the colors as you want. I printed so many colors - so much fun changing them up and it does help to have different colors to find the carts a little easier.

 

Please look at these in the slicer before blindly sending them to be sure you are sending what you want.

 

There are also some simple organizers that I use to store the carts in.

They all have text you can either use or whatever. 

 

If you print any of these, let me know how it goes!

 

The pictures are a mix in time of my setup, but just to show how it all kind of works.

 

It is a hit with the kids and family!
