The smaller black chip marked in red (LDP?) is the tallest point on this side of the rp2040, and when mounting on top of the emmc shield it will stick out south of the emmc shield = not a problem. I'm measuring here with an opened switch lite and an rp2040 and it looks fine to me.
WARNING* this is only imagine question
ive been imagine this alternative...
(this only for people who only use digital games from eshop)
(warning this is only idea)
if we cut the cartridge reader, is it gonna still working? the audio jack ?
this position look fit, but sacrifice the cartridge reader... (rp2040zero sleep there)
I did on my first mod, and it's a bear. You are REALLY likely to accidentally rip pads off if you are not very diligent at securing the wire from flopping around.
I had to repair several traces, and ultimately ended up using AWG40 magnet wire to do a majority of the mod, but left AWG30 for the 3.3v and gnd, as well as the mosfet wiring.
Thanks man.
I will do that Way.
I use here a very thin enamel wire for everything. I don't know the thickness, it's from Xbox One Power Supply coil. so, I will try to use this and let the AWG for CPU, 3.3V and GND.

Sorry @rehius for disturb. Do we have any tool for dumping firmware?
Would be very difficult to implement it on picotoolbox?
Sooner or later someone will get one of this "rp4020" based chips flying arround and would be interesting check what they have inside. Don´t know also if picotoolbox would be compatible...
Best regards

I've made now this file in scale Thickness of the Wires. just let the PDF in 100% scale.
Put AWG30, AWG36 and AWG40.
Mine looks like AWG40. I hope it helps some one else that don't know how it's in hand.
hmn... idk if it need power or not.
but my idea so, it only to make the audio jack workin, cuz on that image, you can see the layout audio and cartridge reader is different path.
green for audio jack path >
and it connect to jack PCB audio (see image)
but its only teori...
and sadly
i dont have extra cartridge reader...
maybe someone who have a broken cartridge reader can try , is the audio still workin
hehehehe

i watch this video again... and find out hes using emmc position
video:
-watch minute 10:23 on top emmc position
and he manage to close metal shield without problem
also it look clean

If you cut right on the pink line with an exacto knife, you should theoretically be able to make a mini flex that will still work in the large flex receiver, you'll just need to align it before closing the flex connector's latch. That would only hook up the headphone jack and completely leave the Cartridge reader "off-the-hook" so-to-speak.
However, I see no reason for this mod, considering how cleanly the RP2040-zero can already be mounted with a little bit of planning.
First of all thank you to all the people involved in this project since the begining, sharing information, making test and making such a great engineering job. Well done guys, congratulations!
I have been looking for some information about the update from 2.5+unlock to higher firmwares but i have some doubts about that.
Right now i have a fully working switch v2 (skhynix) with picofly 2.5+unlock. Boots fine atmosphere in emunand and stock sysnand ( also from the no sd screen holding vol+ and vol-).
So, how can i update to the latest firmware version? I mean i know that i need to reflash manually from usb the latest version but should work if then i wired it as it was? I need to do backups from boot0 and boot1 and then restore them?
Iam thinking on wiring another rp2040 zero that i just have prepared with the new fw. Could that make some trouble with the backups due to the id of the pico?
Also I read that v2.5+Unlock has an issue with boot0 backup, should i fix the boot0 File?

since i dont have a proper heat gun/blower solder to remove rp2040 usb-c(prob ill go to small service smartphone center,ask them to remove usb-c port), this is "my alternative".
actually my alternative wasnt cut them, but just take em off, so no jack and just use the speaker.
and my other alternative
if i dont wanna remove the rp2040 usb c, i can place the rp2040 there...
use that cartridge reader place.
but this alternative only for me.
so the rp2040 no mod needed.
