Impossible Saturn Mod

[ricpicado]

Hi guys.

I decided to mode my saturn and put a 50/60hz switch on it.

I follow this tutorial www.retrocorner.net/index.php?Mods_%2F_repairs:Saturn_model_2_50%2F60hz_switch_-_page_1 and when i opened the console, there were no jumpers to sold the wires. I stayed like "wtf?" and just closed the console again.

Anyone know's another way to put a 50/60hz switch on the console? A good tutorial is welcome too

I didn't come across the method you have up there until recently, but here's another surefire way --

It's a tad harder, because you have to gently lift one of the pins off the IC, but every single saturn has this chip, so it's guaranteed to work. It's the way I did it.

edit: I guess he modified the instructions a bit so you don't have to lift the pin.
