Hey guys,
I'm currently faced with quite the dilemma.
As the holidays approach, I was hoping to make my girlfriend her own gameboy, as well as a LSDJ cart. The gameboy was cake (i'll post pics after i finish painting it) but i'm a bit uneasy about soldering this card.
I found an old copy of Medarot 2 (GBC),

so if i killed it in the process, it's not to big a deal, but i'm deathly afraid of screwing up my EPROM.
I'm hoping to use a AMD29F032B-90EF, along side Mr.Ziegler's Amazing set of instructions (Which can be found here) But after reciving the chips, i'm starting to get cold feet...
I mean just look at those pins!
Any tips of advice? maybe some kind of TSOP to dip connector?
TLDR: I'm a weenie, and am afraid to solder small pins- advice?
Thanks in advance,
-Ben

Topic: Anyone Need a Gameboy? (5 replies, posted in Trading Post)
I was bidding on a lot of 6, with out realizing my paypal was lacking the funds to purchase such a large load- and with no other bidders insight i think i may end up getting stuck with the order..
So i come to you guys asking if you by chance are looking for one or two DMGs and would be willing to pay in advance- i'd of course ship them the day they're delivered to me..
So, PM if you're interested!
Thanks in advance,

Re: Screen Recovery..? (10 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
I didn't think so.. Darn.. I should be able to switch it out for another screen though right?
(The screen that came in it was from a DMG-07, while the motherboard was a DMG-03, so i'm pretty sure it's all cross-changeable)

Hello!
Sorry to bug you all with such a ridiculous inquiry, but i recently toasted part of my ribbon cable trying to fix some horizontal lines after installing a backlight, and i think i may have just ruined my screen
I suppose it wasn't the smartest thing to do, but i found a video (can't find the link again- sorry..) talking about how getting rid of the horizontal lines is almost identical to getting rid of the vertical ones- simply running a low powered soldering gun over top, resealing the contacts seems to do the trick, but my crummy hand-eye coordination lead to this (those with a faint heart may want to turn away)-

and this..

TL;DR I'm pretty sure i ruined the screen- anyway i can turn this guy around?
It's my first gameboy, and i'd hate to have it down for the count so soon..
Thanks in advance for any help!
