Hey everybody, sure is great to be back. I am not sure about your situation but I recently purchased a VG pocket caplet 50 games in one and am amazed at the screen resolution (in response to your post). There are LOTS of video players out there with a screen this size and don't even come close...

I bought one of thoes 30 rom systems for test purposes. don't know what I did with it. but anyway, I can do some3 tracing with it when I get a chance. I also have one of thoes handcontroler plug n plays laying around exposed so I can see what it has too. the key is to compare the tracts so we...

well, it has been a while and now I am back. I had one once but it got stollen so I bought another. I have heard of some people geting them and using the screen for other projects but as far as modding the thing, nothing. I still think that the SD card is the way to go. The biggest thing right...

Everyone elso just seemed to give up on it here. I didn't have the tools or time to work on this. Howevery I can come up with ideas just fine.lol

I have given many documents and diagrams ilustrating NOAC's cartrige connections and such. If anyone wants to take the time and try and trace any of the circuit board connections, we may can identify some if not most of the NOAC lines. I still think that the PIC may be the best solution. I ran...

Has anyone heard about PIC programing? This may be the solution we have been loking for. I don't know why I didn't think of it before. A Programable integrated circuit. With a pic we just need the address lines of the NES slot and the input of an sd card and voila! instant portable NES. If...

I was convinced that there may be tracks on the internal board for start and select. This debug screen supports this even more. Would be cool if someone could find these. I need to go now. Got to get ready for work.

One quick fix. If anyone can buff out the current scratches with maybe a dremel buffer and do it litely enough as not to burn a rut in the screen cover plastic (as long as it is evenly done across the screen). You could purchase a palm pilot screen protector film and trim to fit. This would do...

Just in case that an SD card could be added to a VG Pocket Max, I found the perfect location just under the D pad from the left side. This area is rather vacant of parts except for the clock crystal. However the reader guts could fit just under this. My theory on adding a memory slot consist of...

I got the dream gear on sale at walgreens for like 15 bucks and I got the mini at wal-mart for 20 bucks. the max cost around 40 ona side note to a previous post of mine, I got a site for the pinouts of an SD card http://pinouts.ru/data/sdcard_pinout.shtml

I picked up a mini one tonight to hack up sorta speak. thiis one has the same type of rom chip (new type of course) that nintendo uses for their carts. old (nes, snes) and newer (64, gba) Even today this type is used in the Nintendo DS. (MX)

I also found one for cartriges http://nesdev.parodius.com/rom.txt I figured if anyone can trace the tracks on a vg pocket based on the NOAC pinouts then that will allow them to know what the pins are for the rom chip based on the cartrige connections.Just find ground and the vcc+ and go from...

If this can get the ball rolling, I found this site that may help out a bit. http://nesdev.parodius.com/nes-on-a-chip.txt

I was also going to try and take a high res image of the circuitboard for layingtout the tracks better to work with.

I have been monitoring the posts on this forum for a few days and would like to add my thoughts. I work at a wal-amrt and happened to see the vg pocket max and picked one up for under 40 bucks. I had a few thoughts about it that may be nice to roll around. If indeed it is a NOAC, then it may be...
