The only dumbass here is you who cannot even comprehend sarcasm where it's very obviously used. If you actually paid attention to how I constructed my message, and who I quoted and what they said it's very fucking obvious.
relax guys, gals and whatevs.
to be fair when i first read your message i didn't knew it was sarcasm as well, but i had read it twice and yeah, it was sarcasm.
but calm down guys
@smiba got an ETA when you get the game and have time to make the project? i am interesting in seing the PCB of the games
The seller will send out the package tomorrow, knowing the mail system around here it will probably arrive in 2-3 days from now
After that I'll start slow and move towards more aggressive techniques to try and keep the cartridge in good shape.
ETA can be set at 4 days from now for the pictures
When it's arrived...
Throw it!!! Throw it down from some high place!!!
Taste it!!! Chew it!!!
Smash it!!! With a hammer!!!
If it hasn't broken yet...
Crack it open!!! carefully...
Then taste its internal!!!!!
For science!!!

The way I'm thinking of how to crack open a switch cart without damage is by using a thin, superheated wire such as that of a cheese slicer in an effort to melt the exterior of the plastic while maintaining the inside PCB intact.
I hope for the sake of whoever does this that Nintendo didn't coat the inside with denatonium benzoate like they did the outside...
Going slightly off-topic here, but the Norwegians invented the best cheese slicer ever
As for opening the cart, if you don't have a wire you could probably heat a needle held with pliers and slowly melting away at the seams.

I'll see what I can do, the heated wire or needle technique sounds quite well. Although I could probably just use my 0.3mm micro soldering iron as its thin enough, would need to clean off the burned plastic residue after it though
EDIT:
Yeah the 0.3mm soldering iron definitely is the way to go!

Lets move up the ETA to right now!
Time to get this bad boy open
--
UPDATE:
Tough one to open, it has lots of very thick and strong plastic.
But I managed! I'll post pictures and some other information later today in a new thread so its a bit more clearer.
(One hint: It only has 1 chip and 4 capacitors)

@BigOnYa, and since the default emulator is below average i downloaded some "replacements" like snes9x for snes games for example+1 -

If you just want pi for emulation no point when Anbernic releases new shit every two seconds+1 -
@
BigOnYa:
What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted -

@
K3Nv2:
Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option+1

For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display+1

@
K3Nv2:
So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total

Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.

They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree

I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups

I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start

But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox.
