Title: Weird DVD Player with pirated NES/Famicom Games
Post by: Galaxy Knight on October 15, 2015, 08:48:06 PM: Okay, quick story time, I had to get my cousin a gift (birthday) and he wanted to play my famiclone carts. He's rough with his stuff so to save my collection, I bought him one of these:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/7-8-TFT-LED-Srceen-Portable-DVD-EVD-Player-with-TV-Player-Game-FM-3D-Movers/1001877431.html?spm=2114.01020208.3.72.a7L2OW&ws_ab_test=searchweb201556_7,searchweb201527_4_71_72_73_74_75,searchweb201560_4 (http://www.aliexpress.com/item/7-8-TFT-LED-Srceen-Portable-DVD-EVD-Player-with-TV-Player-Game-FM-3D-Movers/1001877431.html?spm=2114.01020208.3.72.a7L2OW&ws_ab_test=searchweb201556_7,searchweb201527_4_71_72_73_74_75,searchweb201560_4)

Well I ordered one for myself, needless to say I was surprised. You see I ripped the game and instead of getting normal files, the games were all under this "Gxxx.bin" I frankly don't know how this works, My question is, Could I burn NES games on discs and play them on the console? I could really use something like this. Before you ask "Why not just use an emulator?" Thing is, If I could do this, then when my cousin comes over on holiday's and he wants to play a game from my collection I could just burn it to a CD and give it to him.

If anyone has info on this It'd be great if you could share it. Thanks!

Sounds very similar to what you bought. So it seems like you need some tweaks to your common dumps to get them working on your portable DVD player...

The device has to have the FAT32 filesystem. Just copy the .nes files into the device, then plug it into the player. When you press Play, you should be taken to a file explorer. Press the Menu button (the leftmost button of the three buttons in the middle of the two d-pads), then navigate to Game. You should be able to select your ROMs from there.
