And what a year! Bumping to see if any of us three (me, Kitsch and DaRko) finished their projects. I didn't. Did they? smile

Btw, a user from www.elotrolado.net (a Spanish gaming forum) made his own version of the project:

worked great.  there are a couple burrs (spelling?) to clean up, but that was it

(OSHpark did the samples, haven't tried my normal fab house for the bulk run yet, but on a 1.6mm board from oshpark this worked really well)

Especially between different board houses with different quality vias.

I've been planning to do this for some time; I want to do my own version of the Backwood Scotty board.
For anyone not familiar with the concept, it's function is to convert an original GBC game into a rewritable cartridge. It'll still require a flasher.

The original pinouts and wiring is taken from here: http://reinerziegler.de/readplus.htm#32MBit home
Ziegler's original project needs lots of wiring, this board here only requires 4.

The board was shown on 8bc somewhere in 2009 and it looked like this:

What do you think?
