Yeah, I'd definitely dump it to see whether it's different from retail.

If you need a parallel port, why not just buy a PCI-E one?

Hrm... That looks interesting. The only thing, like everyone else has said, is getting the dump of it and comparing checksum sizes.

Meh. They're just carts to be used at trade shows, I doubt that they're any different to the kiosk demos.

I get that they're highly sort after because of the popularity of the series, but they're hardly rare.

I think I've got Silver and a Ruby ones *somewhere* (or they may be proper kiosk demos with the NFR label).

Edit:
I've got them catalogued as "Kiosk Demos", so they're likely retail carts with the "Not For Resale" label.

They definitely used these GBC flashcarts for Pokemon Gold/Silver kiosk demos at stores here in Australia. Although I had no understanding of what they actually were, I wanted one so much, simply because it was an oversized GBC cart.

If you're still after a dumper grab a Joey Squinson from Benn Venn, it uses a standard micro usb connection.
