Re: need help deciding what to do first
I would recommend making an NOACp (NES-on-a-chip portable). NOAC's (like the Yobo and Retro Entertainment System) are very small, have low power requirements, and at least in my experience, are pretty hard to break.

Re: need help deciding what to do first
what gets the job done for doing these kinds of projects, a 200ºC (392ºF) to 450ºC (842ºF) soldering iron, or a 30Watt Soldering Iron & Solder?

A 30 watt soldering iron should be fine. I use a 15/30W one from Radio Shack.
