I semi-remember those clones..

What always had me curious is how they were beig sold without any license
They just stole. Sometimes they removed company trademarks in the main menu, but more often they didn't even bother with that. There were even "official" pirated cartridges (and later CDs) that were advertised on television. These are the same pirate ones, only with their own logo and their own color of the cartridge box. Many countries have gone through it - pegasus, dendy, phantom, micro genius, subor, etc.

We had them in Greece too. I guess that's why Nintendo hates everyone so much xDDD Nothing got pirated like Nintendo.. Sega was second best :p

What are these "!addlicense asf" or "javascript:AddFreeLicense" codes?​


ASF stands for "Archi Steam Farm", which is a program people can use for idling Steam games for their Steam cards. Many people use programs like this, but this one also allows users to activate games to their accounts, emphasis on the plural. For users with multiple Steam accounts for whatever reason, they can use the supplied "asf" code(s) in the comments of some posts to activate games to their accounts faster. More information can be found on the ASF wiki - https://github.com/JustArchiNET/ArchiSteamFarm/wiki/Setting-up
I only wanna use this to add the free licenses. Im not interested in it farming cards for me but I read pages and pages of info and cant figure out how to turn off the farming cards option. If the option is there I cant find it. If I use steamdb's install option I usually get an error because you need the parent app/base game first. 🤷‍♂️

I wish I could help you with that.. I don't know but I'll try asking a few people that use it. Maybe someone knows (they all admit that the UI of the program is HORRIBLE)

I just want the AddLicense factor myself, without the app at all, if thats what your trying to figure out, I'll be on the hunt soon enough--when I find it I'll let you know. If you want to use the App, I can't help there, I don't install that stuff.

And from what I here its on the verge of getting risky on the steam end while doing the cards lately....mind you this was a quick search, I suggest researching yourself if you ARE doing it.

Dodge this.
This is mine. But such cartridges with an abnormal number of games were not sold separately, they came bundled with the clone itself. Everyone had one. there were actually about a dozen games there: tetris, lunar pool, galaxian, battle city, wild gunman, duck hunt... and if you were lucky, then instead of Tetris there was Super Mario. I wasn't. But the main interest there was the game selection menu, where they actually tried :)
were the games in those cartridges ripoffs or did they just pirate the original games and put it on the cartridge?

Pirated. Very rarely in some games the sprites of the characters were changed and sold as other games, for example, the main character of the game Adventure Island was replaced with Mario and sold under some stupid name like Super Mario 14. sometimes they just changed the title screen and, say, Duck Tales 1 became Duck Tales 3, but except for the name, everything remained as it was. Some unique pirate games exists, but they are simple and uninteresting, and there were also more ambitious attempts - ports from 16-bit consoles, such as Mortal Kombat :)
