Never bothered to test my soldering abilities before. Welp, wish me luck. I went over the contacts with a mm earlier today. Been taking college classes on electronics so I've returning to this hobby. I've been wanting to make a n64 mini, make it smaller than the stock mini if possible. If anyone sees any problems with my images let me know and I'll update them. NOTE: i was also planning on rewiring the top row of the RCP/CPU back if I went thru with cutting up to the RCP pins, if that's possible when cutting?

It's possible to rewire the CPU and RCP if you decide to cut that low but I would recommend cutting to that first line above the 1997 Nintendo logo silkscreen. That way you'd only need to rewire the RCP

I understand what kind of madness im falling victim to by agreeing to the terms
But believe me it's gonna happen. I also want to rewire the left side of the cpu traces back to the rcp so I'm going full force. Just taking it one step at a time. I'm in the middle of having to prep the pif chip to solder that back up by hand.
