    Little off topic, but is there a bit that can get those deeply imbedded Virtual Boy screws?
    Not that I've found or heard of... the way I do it is use a flathead screwdriver with a notch in it, check out the Disecting the Virtual Boy section on my page @ http://projectvb.vze.com .

    Mine is always a fight fit but it does not damage the cart at all.

    mine fits in but it causes the white dust on the initial unscrewing that was mentioned earlier, it doesn't damage the cart though.

    With mine (bought mine on EBay a while ago) it varies with each cartridge. Somtimes the bit goes in easy with some cartridges, other times it shaves off a bit of plastic on others.

    If the bit feels a bit tight and it looks like you're going to be forcing the bit into the screw hole, try coating the bit with a dab of dish soap. It's helped me on some of my problem carts. It may still be a tight fit, but the soap prevents the bit from rubbing plastic off. Then after you reassemble the cart, just rub any excess soap out with a dry or lightly dampened cotton swab.

    This trick also works on screws when trying to drill them into dense wood.

    Yohi, that was the issue I was having- some carts it'd hit nicely, others would take some slight shavings off the plastic. Fits perfectly in my tengen carts.
