I'll be buying more GBA stuff in the future.

I'm certainly no expert on this stuff, but it looks like they put in jumpers on the cart to hook up to it? I really don't know, as I've never really looked very far into how to make a Repro.
Here's a couple pictures to illustrate what I mean from the SoM2 Repro. Ignore the spot on the mat next to the cart, I spilled some super glue one day and haven't been able to get it out of my work mat. :(
Also, do you happen to have the cover for this still? I noticed it was already in your collection. :)

I have never seen one done this way. The only two ways I know to make these are with Eprom stacking or TSOP adapter with flash memory.

Sorry for the no pic ..
Found Spyro the Dragon and Next Tetris for $4 each at Value Village.
Both complete and in pretty good shape.

That's just an adapter board to allow 16-bit eeproms.
