NES mod questions (power and regulation, cartridge slot etc)

But... that's just the problem! did you look at that part number? it's got a 0.1" (2.54mm) pitch, not 2.5mm like the NES cartridge has!......

Oops, my bad. That's what I get for copy-pasting between threads. I'd say finding a Game Genie or clone would be your best bet then. I'm planning on using a Game Genie in my it'll-be-done-eventually NES portable. Like this Game Genie for $10 shipped, for example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-NES-Ga ... 2eb7cccc1c

So there's no chance that that connector will work? I wanted to order one for my NES laptop project but I need to be sure it will work ofcourse... Any other connector that you can order online that would do the trick?

the spacing is close enough that it should work, and someone else in the thread had stated they got it working fine, so it seems it's close enough to work.

I'll give it a try then! Hopefully this will not destroy my nes or game!
