Anyone have this issue before? I just picked up a copy of RB2 Jap and it is in excellent condition but I am having a hell of a time getting the ROM to line up and even fit in the cart slot. It feels really tight.... none of my other games have this issue. Anyone go thru this before? Also, the rom part is green? Every other game I have is gray.... but I have seen official pics from the neo store and the roms are indeed green for RB2.

Green is normal for a BK1 / 512Y game. Mine is that way.

Post a pic of the bottom of the cart.

In case of insert marks, lube it up! ;)

Have seen the wide cart issue on a few Sengoku 3 carts, you end up with cart insert marks as a wide band on the front of the cart, rather than the usual thin strips on the two outer edges of the cart. Was wondering a while back whether a converter cart could be made, something like an mvs converter that sits in the slot but is nothing more than an extension of the cart so the cart itself doesn't pick up insert marks. Sure it would be very easy to make, but a step too far perhaps?

Yeah, somebody opened that RB2 cart and didn't put it back together properly.
