Is there some PCB scheme for MSX Cartridge? i.e. for C64 there is the Magic Desk
I don't know if there is something. I would like to program some EPROMs with games.
I'm using a simple Philips 8020

I was working on multi-rom cartridge some time ago that also supports bank switching, but that's not finished yet.
The multi-rom part works though if your interested...
(also several different schematics for Atari2600 cartridges, just in case your into other vintage computers)

Here is the information that I have gathered for my project, maybe it's useful for you as well...

Konami mapper
Ascii, Konami, and SCC mapper
Eprom cartridge

Note: If you copy multiple games of the same size to the Eprom, you can use the jumpers on the Eprom cartridge to switch between these games. But only if there are the normal size and not need any bankswitching.

only the konami zemina mapper works well at startup
look at also this post

the others are just block diagrams
they do not start at the initiation of MSX
the final version of the project is here

it does not start alone but using the program contained in the file MSXRAM.RAR on the second page
the launch of this cartridge is incorporated into sofarun

Jipe's MSXRAM is Amazing and Sofarun support it.
