This is just to make the motherboard smaller to make a portable smaller basically - board bend the cartridge slot area. Quite a few pics, so easier just to give the link to it: http://www.made-by-bacteria.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2397
Gotta have some crazy soldering skills to pull that off with those tiny legs on the CPU. I like it. I need an iron with smaller tip now...
??? Dude, where do you think the wires FROM the cart slot go to? The same cart slot??? They gotta go to the CPU since the legs from CPU to slot were cut in the process. Soldering the wires to the cart slot is nothing. Easy as taking a walk for me. It's the other end I'm scared to try soldering... Not trying to be a dick here, just using reasoning logic...
He's referring I think to this Bad_As84, which was wiring to the chip, although that wasn't part of the cart folding, it was only to make the board cut further across for my next stage - trying to fold the motherboard itself: This is just a sideline project BTW, nothing to do with my Unity project, just doing this for fun to see if I can fold the motherboard a few times and keep it working ok, to make the smallest N64 motherboard around.
Yes, the cart slot pins will go to the same cart slot.... I got the impression you got confused with the label saying "NUS-CPU-01" above the cart slot. If you are indeed talking about the part bacteria posted above, then those arent cpu traces - its the cpu legs. Which is why I didnt think it was that part you were talking about. All logic and reasoning used to reach my conclusion. If its wrong and you were talking about the cpu connections - calling it the right thing would ease confusion ;p
