► Genny multigames

From China/Hong Kong, Korea, Russia, Ukrainia...
How many of these exists ? I don't know! I even saw on eBay recent releases so the list is still increasing!

What is it exactly ?
Take a cartrdige with a big sized ROM and add a counter IC connected to reset pin and A12+.
Everytime to reset, you increment the counter and so the address in ROM.
First time, the Genny acces to 0x00000xxx (first 4M)
Second time, the Genny acces to 0x00001xxx (second 4M)
....
