Hello everyone, where can I find blank Evercade cartridge PCBs?
I would just like to solder an SD or micro SD card holder on it. Thanks in advance.

Yes, I had seen this topic. I am looking more for blank PCBs in order to make a kind of reproduction.

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any. The closest you can get is to re-produce the PCB from scratch. KiCAD is by far the easiest to work with when designing circuit boards.

Not easy there

Has anyone tried?

To my knowledge no one has bothered. It's easy to buy a real cart, remove the flash chip and install an sdcard socket.

If you know how to use software to design a board, it should be a super easy project. Unless you're trying to get fancy with it and add a few new features. All you need for the standard functionality is 8 traces from the first 8 cart pins to the mSD socket with spots for two tiny capacitors - if you're mimicking the official PCB. The rest of the pins after the first eight, or at least the first handful of them, are grounded.
