Yes.

can it play earthbound without the copy protection kicking in?

The sd2snes and sd2snes pro support like 99.9 percent of the games even those with copy pretection. There are a small number of BSX games that have some issues and 6 special chip games that do not work as of yet.i can not remember them at the moment but you can see a list on the sd2snes.de blog

There's only 3 co-processor games not supported on the blog:

ST-011:
Hayazashi Nidan Morita Shougi

ST-018:
Hayazashi Nidan Morita Shougi 2

SPC7110:
Far East of Eden Zero
Momotaro Dentetsu Happy
Super Power League 4

Then there's all the Sufami Turbo games (15 carts), the data pak slot feature required by some games and all those problematic Satellaview games.

SPC7110 is hopefully coming as it's supported by the Mister. ST-011 is said to be possible on the pro but not the original SD2SNES. ST-018 is said to be out of spec for either.


I don't think any game with copy protection is able to detect the SD2SNES.
