      Put together a simple project with a Pi I wasn't using an an old cartridge for a game I never played.
      Not too much to the project, removed all the Pi components aside from the HDMI connector. Replaced the capacitors on a Plugable USB hub and a Wii controller to USB adapter to lay them flat. Reorganized everything inside the cartridge and soldered everything back together.

      I still need to make a trim plate for the front, but functionally it's done.
      Next I start adding games and enjoying it.
