It could be possible your rom file is corrupted.
How are you transferring the rom to the MiSTer?

Do you have the SDRAM Board installed?

Alot of early Homebrew games and demos is made for Emulators and don't work on real hardware or FPGA implementations

Hello. I noticed the 2 World Series Baseball games for game gear do not start up in this core. Verified good rom dumps of both and all I get is the BSOD (Black Screen of Death). Anybody else notice this? These were my favorite baseball games on any handheld of that era. Hope they can work at some point.

regarding the OP, that's a 4MB SMS ROM. The reason it doesn't work is the core isn't setup to handle a 4MB SMS ROM. There's no cartridge like that out there. It seems like some gimmicky thing for software emulators.

Confirmed, they currently don't load. All 4 EEPROM game gear games don't boot.

I opened a new issue because only 2 of the EEPROM games were mentioned in another issue that was closed which had like 20 other games in it that were fixed.
