Hey /vr/,

I am thinking of making a project that involves NES cartridges and magnets as a storage solution, and I wanted to ask if the Cartridges themselves could be harmed in any way? The roms are probably safe as far as i can assume, but what about the savefiles or the batery inside? Would it interfere with these components? Would it have bad juju in the cartridges that if you stick them into a console it would zap it? Don't want to mess up the ol' piece of hardware, it has survived so long.

Being on this topic, how about with other cartridges?

>Pic not really related, best I could find when googling nes and magnets.

Don't use magnets that are too strong. Prolonged and repeated exposure to permanent magnets can still fuck up magnetic properties of ferrous material. I don't know much about the makeup of the circuitry in most cartridges, though.

I was playing with the idea about painting a wall with magnet-coating and then using pic related between wall and the screw sockets of a nes cartridge to 'pin' them to it. As far as I know these are pretty strong magnets... too much?

You could plaster a whole wall with games

That sounds like diametric opposite of comfy.

Also, terrible idea overall You could accomplish the same thing with a simple plastic clip. If you must use magnets you could put one inside the cart and one inside the wall. Magnets won't hurt you cart but they will do other things. Since you're too young to have a CRT or credit card it probably isn't a problem for you though. kek

Are you sure you know what it means?
Never seen magnet paint before? Pic related

Putting a magnet inside would be way to much work, the small magnets fit perfectly into the screw sockets

Also, yeah you sure showed me! Your witty writing totally comes across as you being a man of age... /vr/ is like a good bottle of wine... Left open in the sun for a year, so the /v/ shitflies can fall all over it and taint it forever
>>3804658
I have two of the cylinder magnets here, so I just tried it out with one of the games that has 5 sockets (in the top corners) on a Metall plate and it stays put. You don't even need force to take it off the magnets... Fuck it I might try this

Honestly. Magnets are an awful solution for hanging your carts. A peice of 1x1 screwed to the wall would be a better shelf.

Magnets are cool and useful, like for holding cabinets shut in an RV.

You're using a jack hammer for something that needs a screwdriver.

>magnet paint is magnet-coating
Oh god. Another one of those who think words mean whatever they say.

>>3804658
Yeah, that looks retarded. Also it won't hold a cart to your paint. Also clean your carts you filthy animal.

>im insecure about my age
>i didnt even try it yet
Not much to say about that except...Top kek kid
Don't try it. It won't work. Just keep taking about it and talking about it. That's the best thing to do with fantasies.
