I noticed on Neo Geo cart systems that there is a wired attached(screwed on) from the metal inside of the top cover to somewhere on the board. Is this wire for grounding? And if so/or not, where does it attach to?

The one in my cart system has been chopped off, is it essential?

Thanks.

It should be a ground. Not necessary, but recommended.
