Don't you still have some extra pins in your broken Genie you could spare?
I do, but just barely enough to make another. I destroyed a bunch before figuring out an effective way of extracting them without bending them. If you bend them even slightly it becomes VERY difficult to reuse them. It requires 16 for the mod, and I have 17 left. That leaves me with a very small margin for error, and I can almost guarantee that I'll bend at least 2-3 making another. Even though I have a good system now, I'm apt to still have a hiccup here and there. These are pretty tiny, weak parts, so bending a few by accident is just a reality that I can't do much about
Even after I figured out a way to extract them I still bent a few trying to reinstall them. The hole that you need to squeeze them through is about 1.5mm wide by a nearly immeasurable height, not to mention the small "ramp" inside the plastic housing that you must carefully navigate over without bending the pin.
Basically, it's REALLY tight and the parts are extremely small. This sort of thing was never meant to be done by hand (even by the hands of small Chinese sweatshop workers
)
Don't go out of your way yet - I can't say 100% I want you to make me one yet. 
Well, I want you to make me one. Just not sure if I want to buy it.
It's hardly going out of my way, don't worry. I'm on eBay every day hunting for deals anyway, and the estimate doesn't require much effort at all since it's about 97% labor and 3% materials (about 2-3" of .22" solder, 40" of 26G wire, one #2 Xacto blade, and about 4-6 drops of super glue)
I think I can do it for about 50 shipped within the US plus the cost of parts. I can pretty easily source the parts for about 10-15 shipped on eBay/Amazon, plus I may be able to find them for less if I shop locally at one of the nearby used game stores.
On a side note, do any of you guys collect Nintendo Power mags? I'm looking for a scan of the issue that has Stunt Race on the cover (plus whatever decent images are in the article about the game). I can grab the issue on eBay for about 4 shipped, but I just want the damned cover really. I'm not super excited about my cover for the game, and I'd like to revamp it a bit, but artwork for the game is pretty non-existent on the web
It's issue #63 from August 1994.
