Re: How could I upgrade my super ufo super drive pro 8 ( 32mbit ) to 128 mbit ?

The easiest way would be to sell the Super UFO and buy a 128Mbit DX2. But, I don't know of anyone who needs a 128Mbit backup unit, 64Mbit should be fine for almost anyone with the possible exception of translators working on the handful of games greater than 32Mbit. As far as I know no one makes 128Mbit units any more.

> What are the games that use above 32mbit in the SNES ?

Someone else can jump in here to help out but the ones that come to mind right away are Tales of Phantasia (48Mb), Dai Kaijyu Monogatari II (40Mb), Star Ocean (48Mb), and Far East of Eden Zero (Tengai Makyo Zero, 40Mb).

Because Star Ocean has a compression chip in it, I'd estimate it's equivalent uncompressed ROM size would be at least 64Mb and probably larger and FEOEZ would be at least that also.

I have to say from what I've seen FEOEZ is visually the best. I haven't played the game because I don't read Japanese but I've been helping to see that it gets emulated and it has hands down the best demo loop I've ever seen on an snes game. If the game itself lives up to half the promise seen in the demo loop this would be my pick for best snes RPG but I'd still say that if you're a serious snes fan you need all the >32Mb games in your collection. They all look good.

Oh, in case you weren't aware, you won't be able to play FEOEZ or SFA2, Star Ocean on a backup unit without the actual cart in the unit and some mods made.
