My roomate is currently working on a project wherein one step he is trying to rework snes controllers to use in an arcade style cabinet setup. We had one we thought was finished a few days ago but stopped working for some reason today. After taking a look at the soldering points it appears as if the board was burned/over heated a bit and might have led to premature failure. Now for the question, does anyone have any suggestion about how to soldier on these type of boards? For example: wire or soldier type. I was thinking that the best route would try to go with somethig that had a low melting point to try and keep damage to a minimum. However, I am pretty inexperienced at this and looking for advice.
