If you're not familiar with it the Seta Aleck64 hardware is based on the Nintendo 64

mame driver: https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/master/src/mame/drivers/aleck64.cpp
The hardware is similar enough that some Aleck64 games have been made to play on N64 hardware: https://krikzz.com/forum/index.php?topic=2609.0
I'd be interested in being able to play N64 games on an Aleck64 mobo by way of a cart adapter. this could potentially allow an Everdrive to function as a multi-cart
similarly devices like the N64 Blaster: https://retrostage.net/index.php/product/n64-blaster-2-0/ could potentially be used to make Repo Carts of some of the prototype/hard to find Aleck64 games.
The Mahjong carts have some extra IO hardware on the cart but the simpler Aleck64 carts look like this:
by comparison here's a pic of an N64 Mario Kart PCB:
both carts are essentially just the Serial ROM, security chip, and save chip
