Does anyone know what type of screwdriver one uses on an American Genesis cart? I got a PAL cartridge that fits in my now-broken Nomad (please see my other topic Sad ) I know that Tototek's MD flash cart won't fit in the EA games or Accolade type cartridges *The BIG ones* I've seen some that have triple-bladed screws, but mostly they are those weird star things. I went through my whole tradespro toolbox looking for a proper screw. I can use the flashcart "naked" so to speak, but I'd hate to damage it by accident or via static...any ideas?

It is a standard 4.5mm security gamebit. You can find them all over Ebay. MCM electronics sells them too....in fact, they were the first ones to sell them in the early 90s.

They are used most Nintendo consoles after NES, also the TG-16, and Gamegear, along with a few othe rsystems Im not thinking of right now.
