What is required to make this work? I would like to know every piece of equipment necessary. Will it work without the FDS?

No, it requires the FDS and Famicom to work. Have a look at my site for more info on Famicom game doctors: www.famicomdisksystem.com

Wow OK... looking at this it's a lot of equipment. Since you are obviously very proficient in dumping FC/FDS games. What is the best option in transferring them to your PC?

Edit: Would the game doctor work with a Sharp Twin?

The best option for dumping regular FDS games is FDSLoader. If you want to dump FDS game doctor games, you'll need an MGD1.

You can only use a game doctor with a Sharp Twin FC if you have a standalone FDS drive, or if you do some rewiring of your Twin, but I really wouldn't recommend this. Just buy a standalone FDS drive.

What about famicom cartridges?

Edit: And when I ask all this I mean what is the cheapest/easiest to find?

Famicom cartridges dumping is best done via an adapter in the CopyNES system. CopyNES can be found here: http://www.retrousb.com/product_info.php?cPath=24&products_id=36

Yeah that will be the project for the next year or so I believe. Looking forward to it.
