      I know it's been done before, but when I was seraching it if was possible, I didn't find any build of a Pi in a Pal Snes cartridge.
      So if any of you are still wondering if it's possible, yeah it is : p

      I messed up the plastic while cutting some parts on the inside tho, so be carefull with that

        I like projects like this.

        There was a neat kickstarter of a similar sort:

            @edmaul69 You must've left the door open. Not all of us were born in a barn - HA!!! ;)

            Not to derail the thread here too much, how did your Pi Zero in a cart turn out?

              @fdr4prez great. I just did a pc inside an atari 2600 and a gameboy zero with an original gameboy last week.

              @Godwin_Point what is this salty box exactly? I see it has something to do with the pi but i cant read it.

                @edmaul69 - A pc in an Atari 2600, you say? Now that gets my brain flowing... what about a PC inside a Channel F and if I was handy enough the cart port would be the bluray drive...

                  I'm in a fighting game association, and I use that pi as a machine for some of our tournaments(Street fighter third strike, Windjammer, Mark of the wolves...)

                  In the fighting game community, the term "Salt" is often use to describe the feeling after a bad loss(being "salty" at your opponent or at the game)

                  So it's a joke about that, since my machine would be the bringer of salt : o)

                    @Godwin_Point so did you make the box and label or did you get them that way?

                      I made the box and label on paint.net before printing them and and gluing them on cardboard paper, then I folded it like a snes box.

                      The cartridge was a soccer game that I sacrificed for the process(nobody will miss it tho). I removed the previous label to glue the new one on it.
