[QUOTE="TeamScriptKiddies, post: 5530540, member: 347622"] You misunderstood me :P, I have nothing against soldering, I'm an electronics engineering major lol. I just meant, why go the more difficult route when there's an easier solution, but to each their own. I missed the part about you not wanting the cartridge slot used up etc. If you'd much rather go the region free bios route, go for it :). You could always flash the chip yourself with a PIC programmer, google is your friend on that one. I'm pretty sure it would violate the rules to post a link to the bios here as it's just a slight modification to the official Sega one. There's a tons of downloads for it all over the internet though :P. If you're handy with a soldering iron, you could probably make your own custom PIC programmer for this particular use if you don't have one that's compatible with whatever chipset the Saturn bios uses. I honestly don't think many people (if anyone at all) is selling these pre-flashed chips anymore. Keep us posted on how it goes, if you need any pointers, I'd be more than willing to lend a helping hand. [/QUOTE]

Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
