Anyone tried flashing these with Joey Joebags? What cart type should i choose?

Try "GB(C) Generic >"
Don't forget to erase it first.
What are the options once you highlight GB(C) Generic?

I do think he was trying to intimidate or pressure the author into reducing the price.

Consider people with other professions. Look at the pricing for Dassault Catia or CADSoft Eagle.

As for advice, don't ever grow old.

I guess, something along the lines of: don't jump on stage until your set is ready.

@bitjacker: music is a medium, television is a medium, XXL is a medium, mystics are mediums but chiptune is an offshoot.

oil and canvas is a medium, terracotta is a medium, wood is a medium, etc

Wood workers are good people, but place me in a room with a terracotta artist and I'll go mad.

In that case, you will remove the surface mounted capacitors and solder the 4.7uF caps in their place. This modifies the low-pass filter.
He also says "socket and voila.

He also says: "It's super easy if you already have a prosound mod."
Thats because you only need to do the caps and touch nothing else.

Thats what scannerboy says.
You're talking about this here right:

I also found this

and he does it a little differently. You mentioned connecting the caps to external jacks, which they only do in that second link.

Yeah. The only difference between pre- and post-pot are which side of the pot you solder to. The rest of the circuit remains unchanged.

So I just need to solder the capacitors to the L/R of the audio jack and keep the wires that I have soldered to post pot where they are?

Audio jack? No. The new caps need to replace two of the original surface mounted caps. Your audio jack just connects directly to the pot.

Shit just did some research and it's pre pot. Any way to get it to work with post pot?

Yeah. The only difference between pre- and post-pot are which side of the pot you solder to. The rest of the circuit remains unchanged.

No diff. Continue on with your mod.

Just ordered one with mGB. Hoping it will stop the backlight dimming that occurs on my pocket while using an ems64. By the by, anyone else get significant dimming while running an ems in a backlit pocket? I would think these little carts will draw less power than the ems. Fingers crossed, excited either way.

Yes, others experience this. It also increases over time by how much it dims. The 32k carts are as close to an official cart design as you can get so they will dim as much as your Tetris cart does.

Not to mention there are tons of subtle variations even between the model 1 and 2. Generally the "HD Graphics" model 1 is praised for it's sound, but there's also two variations of that, with one sounding better than the other.

End of the day though, who will ever know? I am 99% confident nobody could tell a difference between models just by listening to it.

Determining the difference between the model 1 revisions by ear would probably not be possible, but the filter between a model 1 and model 2 is rather susbstantial. Entire instruments are non existent on a model 2 becuase the roll off is so much different.

The model 1 does have a separate FM PSG, but the model 2 used the original architecture on-die for the all-in-one chip.The only difference you have to worry about is the audio filter which was cheapened for cost reasons when they shrunk the size for the model 2. 

I mean, the SN76489 sound chip was already built into the main chip to begin with, using the same method.
