How to Clean or Fix Sega Saturn Cart Slot

[emwearz]

Because I have never used it would be the most honest answer.

EDIT: 500th post, aww 128bit....the bits should go backards!

You'll have to carefully try bending he pins

Would using a pen work? I use a ball-point pen clicked down to move CPU pins.

Wasn't there also some sort of cart to let you load movies off a CD?

Yeah, there's a VCD card, but I think that connects to the back of the console.

Well, you don't want to end up getting ink in there. An ice pick or something else pointy that's clean would be better. But if you got them bent back in place without a mess, then it should hopefully be ok.

Correct, the VCD decoder fits in back where the battery goes.

I use the pens when they ran out of ink.

Fair enough then.

I also forgot at least one developmenal kit used the Saturn's slot

This board plugs in to the slot

Random thought. Has anyone ever modded a 4 meg ram cart or memory card into a Saturn? I mean sure it is not the best idea if you play alot of different games, but I havent swapped my card out from 4 meg in well over a year. And itll either need to be painted or modded inside the slot cause the white is starting to take color.

Some one posted a thread asking how to do that...
