Is it normal ?
Hold the power button for 10 seconds. It will also enter sleep mode automatically by itself.

Please reference the IndieGoGo page for details, including documentation (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/vm2- ... updates/13).

Mine arrived yesterday in Denmark. I was hoping for better sd card management without having to pull the card out, but at least it's nice that you can generate additional vmus as needed :)

Does it use the *click* eject+insert mechanism? On my SD2SNES mk3/pro it is wearing out sadly

Yes, you need to press it down in order to release it using a sim card ejector (included).

Mine was delivered yesterday. I don't have time to mess with it until this weekend. What size SD is everyone using?

512GB should be enough, right?

A full VMU dump is 128 KB. As such, a 4 GB card will give you over 31,000 virtual VMUs.

512 GB is total overkill.
