Reminded me of my problem and the thread I made some months ago about it.

Still haven't been able to fix it. I bought a modded white japanese saturn and when I plug the ar max in the saturn doesn't boot, it just gives me a black screen.

I remember that thread.

It would be a lot easier to bend the pins if you remove the cart slot from the motherboard. You would just need something like this...

You would also need a regular old solder iron to put it back on.

I said it was a pain in the ass to remove it, but it's actually not that bad. If you know what you're doing solder-wise, it should take about 10 minutes to remove it. And after you're done fixing the pins, it should take about a minute to solder it back on.
