Hi guys.
I made an adaptor from the infos available on the website.
My PCB is design to fit inside any SNES game shell.



Still need to make a part for holding the 2600 cart.
I'll test them and publish when everything is confirm working

Nice! By the way, the weird outline of the original design serves to unlock the plastic lid of those cartridges. You may need to reintroduce that for smooth insertion.

The goal is to 3Dprint the same slot as the original like similar to this https://hackaday.io/project/113217-atari2600-cartridge-reader.
This should help to hide the cut on the SNES cart shell.
The two holes on the PCB are here to hold it.

OK, that does of course make sense. Cheers M

I'll have to trim it a lot to make it fit in a SNES cart.

Hi, just discovered this and wanted to say great news!  My 2600 games are literally the last in my collection that I don't have a way to dump.  A Retrode plugin for that would be fantastic!  Hope you're able to get this to a finished state and make it available for sale some place.

Good luck!
