While I chimed in to give my two cents, can you please move this discussion to another thread? This is really off topic unless you're considering making the carts yourself. Cartmodding is really not at all related to the business of manufacturing new carts for commercial production. Here's a side qu...

Don't bother contacting Nintendo, you got a form letter. They're extremely picky about who they license, and unless you are actually an established game developer with enough money to show them (as they have capital requirements, if I remember correctly), you have no hope of being licensed. And at t...

Here's a side question:

Has anyone identified a battery clip that actually fits inside the cart?

I've ordered some well designed ones, but they're much too tall! Gonna look at a local place and hope for the best, otherwise I'm going to have to go to town with a Dremel.

Is there an advantage to the faster chips? Just curious.

Still waiting for the adapter PCB's. :\ I'm probably going to try to solder of the chips tomorrow, I think.

Finally got my shipment from BuyICNow. Man the pins on the AM29F032 are tiny! They were out of the -90EC so I had to go with the -75EC... I hope that's acceptable! I'm still waiting for the adapter from the DorkbotPDX PCB order... apparently there was a mixup at the board fabrication place so it's r...

Oh right. Duh. I realized that upon rereading the question just now! Thanks for the clarification though, the image certainly clears that up.

re:rkrenicki Any luck with posting the PCB? Also, I'm following the other thread on the TSOP adapters. Is it true that the Type I ROMLAB style boards can't be programmed directly? Or rather, to state for clarity: Which boards can be used for writing to the EPROM through the adapter? What steps need ...

SNES DIP36 to Willem Adapter

Now my question! The one thing I can't seem to find better info on is the TSOP board to Willem adapter. That seems to be an active discussion here right now as well. People have made them. I've seen dead links to what I think are PCB designs for this purpose. There is a schematic on ROMLAB for one. ...
