I do enjoy Sega Rally, though I'm quite bad at it
Also, what's wrong with the swap trick? It doesn't harm the system any more than changing discs does when the system is off if you do it properly... If you time it correctly, the motor isn't spinning at all so you just swap, thus being the same as normal disc changing, just the system happens to be powered on at the time.
I have all of the Netlink games.

The speed at which you have to perform the swap leads to greater stresses on the system, as few have the control to perform a swap as gently as a normal disc change. Damaging the motor or the drive spindle is not good, and you also risk scratching the discs.
I have my Saturns, I have some of my games, I have a RasPi. Gotta put all this stuff together!

The issue is not the swap trick, but recording a disc with a pirate game...
Also, who would care about scratching CDRs lol?
I'm ready to play!

You risk scratching the disc you initiate the trick with, and possibly the lens, motor, and spindle.

This thread is to advertise NetLink games and hardware for sale to help others find it, not to advertise wanting to play. :/
