Genesis 3, need the board dimensions

Post by G-force »

Can somebody help a fellow out? As long as it will fit in a 4"x4" space, it would be just perfect for my project and I wouldn't have to resort to a Radica after all.

4.6875 inches x 4.6875 inches (4 11/16 inches x 4 11/16 inches)
12 cm x 12 cm (120 mm x 120 mm)

Ech, a bit bigger than you wanted it to be, sorry!

No problem. You can actually cut down the board by relocating the controller ports and everything on the left side of the motherboard (lined up with the 7805 and power switch on the bottom left of the mobo). You would also have to cut off some of the right side and cut off behind the cart slot.
