    Default Drilling out SNES screws :C Black screen of death..

    So my SNES in great condition stop working from the last time I used it quite some time ago. I tried the credit card trick and everything so I went to take it apart and all the security screws came out but one. :C. Has anyone had to drill these out if so which drill bit should I use. How big of a pita? Whats the chances of cleaning the pins out will get it to work again. How are the 62 pin replacements are they worth 20 dollars?

    Also, anyone know where I can get the reset button for a SNES mini? Does thos cleaning kits work?
