What do you mean by that?
It might work better! Put a GBM next to an SMS cart, compare the size and thickness/tallness of the cartridge and GBM.

I'd probably need to trim the GBA, plus I'd like it to have a back lit screen.

Nice idea! I'm not sure about your placement of the L en R buttons though, if they're that low they will be hard to reach.

My idea is the you tap them with your middle finger.

Bump!!! I ordered the GBA Micro, and the SNES game. Is there anything else you guys think I'm going to need, other than the SNES screwdriver?

Bump!!! anyone want to donate a SNES cart, and/or a Screw driver to open it with?

I'd really apreciate it and give you credit once it's made.

I'll sell ya a screwdriver. Not something I'd want to give away.

I thought you had an SNES cart already.

Nope... I had a copy of star fox I thought was broken but I cleaned it really well and it worked. I still need a Screwdriver and SNES cart. (And the L button for the micro XD)

One thing to also consider, the PAL SNES cart is a rounded version of an NTSC cart - if you need a small amount of extra space and happy with a curved surface, you might think about one of these.

I'd take any for this project.

If you were in the UK I would send you one when I played some of my large collection and found one to discard, however postage to USA is not that cheap.

Instead of a SNES cart, you might be able to use an N64 cart? Dimensions (external): 115mm long, 65mm wide at narrowest 75mm thickest, 18mm thick. Should be fine.

I am at the stage on my N64 project where I am gutting a couple of N64 carts for the mobos for the traces part (just opened one up) - happy to send that to you - you also don't need a Nintendo screwdriver then to open it up! Actual postage cost to USA for up to 100g is Â£1.64, which is $3.23 (airmail, 1 week to arrive), plus 14% surcharge PayPal charge to convert one currency into another (eg dollars to pound sterling), so if you PayPal me $3.68 I will send it to you if you want it. This is postage cost price, no profit. 80% extra if you want me to post two. What you will get is the top and bottom parts of the cart and their two screws (and second identical set if you want).

Interested? PM me if you are.

I think you should do it to a Shaq-Fu cart. Make sure to burn the eprom after taking it out of the case.

You prevent other generations from feeling the corruption of this game and its evil.
You clear up the enormous copies of Shaq-Fu lying on the shelves in used console game stores. By doing so, you remove it from public display so that people will not be reminded of the game's existence.
Purchasing many copies of the game shifts the demand schedule, consequently raising the price. Even though it costs you more money, it reduces the incentive for a non-liberator to buy the game; a worthwhile sacrifice.
By getting it from another person, you remove the burden and embarrassment they feel.

I mentioned this in his thread in the Trading Place, so I agree full heartedly.

I havn't found one yet. Next time I go to "The Exchange" (a store an hour away that sells old games for cheap.) I'll look for some cheap SNES carts (found one for a buck but didn't buy.

) Anyone willing to donate a SNES screw driver? or willing to sell for cheap?
