I have a broken gameshark for the Nintendo 64 and a working on, I took them apart
(after turning them on...) to try and figure out how I might be able to dump the software stored on the two boards. They are using two flash chips to store everything from what I can tell, then they are just connected to an ASIC. I looked up the datasheet for the flash chips, all four have the label "SST\n29LE010\n150-4C-NH\n9926033-01"
(\n is a new line for those of you who do not program). My main issue right now is the chip has pins connected that do not exactly match the datasheet, I am wondering if this means it is a customized chip or there are red herrings to throw people who are new to this off, so I would like some help for this before I let any magic smoke out.

Sorry about the images being huge, could not find BBcode to make them smaller.
