On my SNES mini, R6 an R7 are both labeled "151", so I think they should each be 150 ohms.

So today I cut the screen board and case. I all fits inside with just a little room to spare :)

I need to order my LEDs for the screen asap.

I got a bunch of tools for this project over the weekend so I should be set and ready to work.

THINGS TO DO:

- LED mod the screen
- Get new snes board
- Wire up batteries (coming tomorrow!)
- Wire up av-out
- Wire power switch
- Paint
- Glue screw posts in place
- Finalize!

So today I got my batteries and wired them up mostly. I still have to wire them up to the power switch. So I placed in the switch and power port. I used the old zenith screen's power port and will hook up the plug into the smart charger.

Today I cut the hole for my cart slot. I Also started to cement the screen into the case. All seems to be going well. Here's some pictures.

On LOB's Superboy the cart actually went in the portable a bit for stability. This one sticks all the way out which will be resetting all the time and bending the contacts pretty bad.

Just so everyone is clear I did that because everything couldn't fit in right. But last week I changed the design so that the case is a zn-40. I will post pictures soon. But I didn't update you guys much. My more active topic is on modretro.

Well I got some work done on my case. So here's some pictures! The cartridge case is only mocked up for the time being.

Looking good.
A truly wise man can entertain a thought without accepting it. A fool cannot withhold past judgments but instead closes his mine to new possibilities. Someone who wants to innovate simply needs to forget what everyone says isn't possible.
