☢WARNING! This video is NOT for the technically faint of heart! It's super technical!!☢
You can buy my SNES modules, here:

You guys are ALWAYS asking me about programmers. Here's the unit that I use primarily for EVERYTHING. From old, UVPROMs all the way to "fixing" PS3's by reading their NAND/NOR memories.. I have a special kit put together that's incredibly affordable! Of course, it supports all of my cartridge mods! You'll be hard-pressed to beat this for the price. Check it out:
►www.embeddedcomputers.net/pro...
I use the INL Retro Dumper to dump all my games:
► www.infiniteneslives.com/inlre...
♰ I don't condone piracy! As you'll see, I am dumping the games that I legally own! ♰
Okay, let's get started...
In this installment, I showcase two products that I've designed that ease the process of creating SNES "repro" carts that rely on original hardware. My methods greatly differ from what's commonly done in practice. No cartridge rewiring, no desoldering MASKROMs, and the modifications are 100% reversible and do NOT destroy an original game.

You beat me to it. The Bob Ross of Soldering. Best soldering video I have seen thus far. Love your voice and plugs thanks for sharing.

I want you to know that as good as this video was overall, it was specifically the out-of-left-field toilet-humor that compelled me to subscribe. Hearing you explain things in a relaxed, yet earnest voice and then bust out "It's gonna take a nice, hot dump..." made me instantly lose it.

@HostilePride 5 лет назад

Voultar, thank you SO much for this wealth of information. I recently imported a heap of my favorite games from japan planning to translate them to english (even bought multiples of some games because they were so cheap as display pieces). This by FAR is the most valuable resource to doing this. After decontaminating myself of the cesspit of certain forums it was a great relief to watch your video and hear your ASMR worthy voice to see such a clean solution. You are a great teacher.

@MartinPaoloni 5 лет назад

Lol, same here! Games in Japan are so cheap it's unbelievable.

@Administrator_O-5 5 лет назад

Voultar, it's hilarious listening to your word choices: "just got to clean the tip", "sweet special sauce", "let me load my tip", "it's important I give you the best angles & positions", "now I'm going to wet my tip & just drag it along slowly"....🤣. In all seriousness I am a former Network Engineer, but I know nothing about electronics, soldering etc. I wish I did. I'd love to be able too do the things you do with PCBs & chips! But I absolutely love & thoroughly enjoy your videos! You, Sir are like Mozart with a soldering iron! Thank you very much for taking the time to create these videos in such detail & going in depth with the explanations as you go along!

At @31:42 you mention about patching a Final Fantasy VI with a pretty good English translation. Would you mind sharing what specific translation patch it is?

Your advice on tools has been invaluable and I have competed my first mod, a Gradius 3 SA-1 mod. Went like butter! I now find myself with a small collection of fantastic JRPGs that I would love to translate and use your great boards for, the non destructive method appeals to me no end. But unfortunately I am from the UK, can you give any advice as to alternatives to your super stacker, or better still how I could get your super stacker here in the UK? Love all that you do, keep up the amazing work.
