Sorry, I wrote everything what came to my mind, I am lost now :/

I may be too stupid, but I did not figure out a way how to fit the four piggybacked into the cartridge, there is just no way.
Just try to fit everything in there, you have got a case and the stuff ;)

I got a few things I want to try.    Like I ran the VCC differently, also the ground I did differently.   

Does it matter that I am making a ntsc cart? Not a Pal.

Maybe Burning the eproms at no clear setting was wrong?  But I copied the data back from the eprom, and rejoined it. and it worked in an emulator.

If i can't get it to work then I am back to ground zero.

Plus I need a new solder iron.  It looks like the end melted clean off.
destructiveme:
Yeah, I noticed you used one VCC for both chips. You may want to use one for each.

NTSC/PAL should not matter as long the cic in your cart fits to the one in your snes.

I don't know what "no clear" is supposed to mean, but you cant delete a EPROM anyway in software.

Funny thing, my rejoined rom didnt work in bsnes, i just got a black screen. But it worked on the hardware :)

Any solder iron should have exchangeable tips.

Debugging is a bitch on the iron, with no special tools so more - i wasted so many hours on that ;) (on my 2nd try with the chip onboard, the 1st one worked flawless, to my big surprise..)
amarthar:
Another setback for me. My SNES power adapter died on me. Now I need to find a new one, so my repro is not going well.

In lighter news, I actually finished the SoM2 box and label. Right now the box is only for the PAL version, though I made 4 label variations. 1 for NTSC-U and 3 for PAL. Everything is here: http://www.box.net/shared/nton61s4kmv7gn5jzbjz
Tell me if anyone wants me to do a US version of the box or a UGC version.

Also, @destructiveme, send me a PM with your e-mail address, so I could send you the PSDs.
destructiveme:
Damn, a SNES power thingy is ~10 euros though. :/

Send you a PM.

I got my new 27C801s and are waiting to get my eprom progammer again.... :/
