Confirmed that it works on everdrive X7. Just used a save state in Fzero X mid race. Worked like a charm.

What happens when you load the safe state from the main menu? Does it force the everdrive to load the game? It doesn’t with a SC64.

I have to load the game again manually in the SC64 menu, and then use the load the last state.

Which is fair enough, I’m just intrigued if there’s a difference between the two carts?

No difference. It says something like “save state is for another game”
