Opening carts
(Remove from disc-based media)
Example: Unscrew the back of the cartridge with a 3.8mm Gamebit or line head screw driver, carefully separating the bottom half of the cart's shell. Then, remove the Phillips screws on the metal shielding to expose the PCB.
Identifying Game Versions
Indicate whether the game version/revision info can be determined through ring codes, label stamping, printed on chips, embedded in ROM etc
Gathering and Submitting Dump Info
Once you've dumped your games, it's time to generate and submit metadata to a preservation project for validating and cataloging. See the dump submission instructions for more information.
