I've never seen one with the cartridge for sale.

Here's an image of one though. The box with cart was different than the just arm version. As you can see from the picture the box is bigger and has more red in the bottom of it and is labeled SVI-2000B. And there were also manual for the cart included.

I want to warn, that the cartridge is not compatible with all MSX models. I've had problems at least with Panasonic MSX 2+ & MSX tR models. The problem is in hardware, not software. (to test this I build a switch to bypass the Rogo-language and made my own)

I've never seen one with the cartridge for sale.I have seen the cartridge at eBay but it is very rare and hard to find.

NYYRIKKI, I didn't know that the cartridge is not compatible with MSX2+/turboR

Yes, I think this problem could be solved by soldering resistor between ground of cardridge and ground of MSX, but I've not tested this theory.

BTW IIRC the RobotArm is controlled trough I/O ports 0&1 I'm sorry, that I don't remember details, but over 10 years have passed... Nice thing in Rogo (variation of Logo) was, that you could anyway use emulation to display the emulated robotarm movement in "3D" (side view, top view + command window) of your program even without hardware working.

Hi! I didn't find it. Did you already sell it? If yes, may I ask you for how much?

Thanks

Yes, I want to know the price as well. I have two complete Robot arm sets (including box and interface). Maybe, if the price is right I will sell one.
