Title: How to open Datach carts?
Post by: scaryice on June 30, 2019, 05:04:36 am
Anyone tried this? Can't find any pics of what the insides look like, I imagine there's the usual tabs like a bigger cart, but I'd like to see before I try it myself.

Do the boards show up on BootGod?  That may afford some clues.

Without looking or having any I'd guess the same way Famicom carts open (tabs inside), if there's no screws.

He was able to get them open and get scans (I have sent him a few Datach carts), but he was waiting until later to put them online.  This was a few years ago :-[

Well, I just decided to try it myself. The good news is that the tabs seem very sturdy (more so than normal FC carts), but I still damaged the bottom of plastic a little bit in the process.
