As tragic as that is we really dont need to know everything that befalls you. Its not that important. If you do however want to, there are blogs or websites you can use.

Maybe a bad RF module. If you go to NESp and look at the howto he tells you how to replace it with an A/V amp.

Well I tried the method on the nesp website and after that the nes had the problem mentioned earlier. (And yes everthing was hooked up correctly.) As for Basic skills I have them and even a little more. Most of the Neses I broke were during my sixth grade year. This was after the news of portables surfaced. I really went into portables blindly and learned a lot the hard way... As for this Nes I'm just having problems... Ben broke 10 atari juniors until he succeeded with cutting it small enough. And i'm sorry if my bad luck with portables means I need basic skills. I've just had a day that everthing that could go wrong did. I've been emotionally beat up today and the last thing I need is a Critic. Sorry if I come off harsh but, I really, really can't deal with any more. Period.

well then the internet is the wrong place to go cause there is always someone female of the dog species and I will continue to female of the dog species when I feel like it

one of the things I was trying to say is exsamin the bords carefully look what connects where sudy the secmatics and carefully think things out before you cut and as long as the unreplaceable componints are not broke anything can be fixed all it takes is patince and carefull study

I think peppers is in the right here. Sorry.
I mean, one of the last topics you posted was "I got an NES!" or some such... Sparkfist made a very good point about how there are blogs out there.
I'm sorry you had a crappy day, but going to a public forum about a specific topic to talk about it isn't the way to go.
I really agree that you shouldn't have broken 10 of them... what Ben did was pioneering, and I think that just because he broke 10 to get the job done doesn't make it the right thing to do...
Maybe you should come back to this when you've done more simple things to work up to it? I know that's hardly the answer you're looking for right now, but I think it's the right one to give.
It's my experience that you have to do some pretty crazy crap to break an NES. I think I don't want to know what you're doing to them, to be honest.
Besides, if Ben has those Atari Jrs. around still, he can desolder the chips and use them for the boards he's making, while you are, in fact, probably pretty screwed.

Instead of being called Nes Man, you should be called Nes Destroyer :P
Isn't this your 20th Nes you bust, anyway, its a shame you can't do a NESp, and you lose a lot of money, maybe you should try to portablize something else instead, and have a funeral for your nes, i would.

Hey if its broken better to salvage whats good then let it go to waste. I'd like the cart connectors if possible, would be willing to add extra to shipping.

D'oh, I was gonna ask for the cart connectors :P Though my NES-in-a-cart may never come to fruition due to... what we shall call "logistics issues" :( Ah well.
