If the pins aren't submerged in flux you're not doing it right. - Things I've learned from Louis Rossmann's videos btw you spelled his name wrong :P

Oh, you're on youtube now, awesome :D

I normally go with castellated pads for stuff like this, and I've seen your final version of this PCB which also has castellations but I have to say I've never thought of this nor have I seen it done this way but I really like like it.

Really enjoyed watching you mod this cart. You make surface mount soldering look really easy. I wonder whether the cost of sacrificing a Pokémon cart would make it cheaper to buy an after market flash cart?

i have 1 of these but i cant figure out how to flash this with the joebagg gen 3. how do i flash this?

Nice, im also actually in Japan for 2 more weeks .. and i now will grab some pokemon Editions .. i got all GB/GBC Versions so far for my Collection .. but now i will grab some more to get some spare parts for the convertion to putting the german roms on it .. they are cheap here .. between 550 and 880 yen per Card.

When will your store restock the conversion board?

What temperature do you have your hot air gun at ?

Are the parts not on your website anymore?

what flash chip do i need? for making this flashcart with pokemon silver japan version i know that you can a AM29F016 and an adaptor with pokemon crystal version

where do i get the EEPROMs

Do you also have a clip on how to prepare and flash the rom to the card?

Yes! MBC3 is the only unique component of an RTC-enabled GBC cartridge. Everything else, as long as the wiring is done properly, is completely fine as long as its similar data sizes, which a mod like this should be more than enough

The WE pad you can connect to 5v, you can't leave it disconnected. The upper Address line must be connected if using more ROM than the cart originally supported. If you're not using more, that too can be connected to GND, but don't leave it disconnected.
