Choping up an N64 controller mobo

Post by ninjamonkey »

Ok, I have a question about this. Can you just cut the board an old way, keeping the main chip intact? or is there a specific way?

lolololol

I remember a post from metal cookie yesterday about n00b questions, one of them was about cutting the processor up. :lol: :lol: :lol: He called it.

No you can only trim around the outside edges of the board. The metal parts that aren't covered by green stuff.

No he said chip, so I said processor. I'm not talking about the controller.

but that's what he's asking about.

Answer:

Pretty much anytrhing that isn't a surface mount component or A plug(ala joystick) can be cut off, and rewired, of course!
