Picked up some N3DS systems. The Pokemon one took me by surprise, it looks really good in person. Got the DK and Mario games for a buck each!, a friend bought them at a yard sale. Couldn't believe it. The Crimson DS lite is pretty mint for $10.00. Rune Factory games from Ebay. Pretty cheap. The 3DS one being less money then the DS one.

Lol, God, I bet that will be difficult

Anyways, I actually need to buy a new she'll and upper screen for my DS Phat, screen has a crap ton of dead pixels, and the shell is damaged beyond repair

Of the sp, the hinges and connecting the ribbon cable to the motherboard through the shell are the hardest parts.
If my ds was that bad, I might just buy another one. The price of a new shell and screen, not to mention your labor installing it, wouldn't be worth it. Unless, I found a sick housing.

Its pretty easy I replaced a bunch with little to no knowledge about how to do it. Id say removing the ribbon cable from the top screen to the bottom is the hardest, but all you need to do is gently roll it and push it through.

I got a new pair of Skullcandy earbuds a few days ago. I thought I broke them earlier because the left one had no sound, but the jack wasn't plugged in all the way :rofl:

Man, that's sucks.
My advice: go to yard sales/flee markets, you're bound to find something there
I do but most people near me when they have them never sell games or systems. Well when someone has a game system they want alot for it. I remember last year some lady wanted $100 for a broken gameboy pocket. it wouldn't read any games and it looked like (and felt like) someone dropped it into a bucket of coke/pepsi. She kept trying to tell me it's a rare limited edition. It was the black version, probably because of the coke. She kept saying that u just have to blow the games for it to work.


Edit: I just got a ds lite with a broken top screen on ebay from Japan for $14. I was to only one that bid on it for some reason. It's a white ds lite and I will be turning it into a gba macro when I get it.
I'm also going to try install a speaker in it somehow with the slot-1 still intact. Most gba macro mods make you remove the speakers because there is almost no room in the housing

    I just recently picked up a n64 from a garage sell, and looking to mod it and add a HDMI port to it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3548173115...044&customid=4f3038da73b61afddf7e5e90f4153856
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'd like to find a power strip and HDMI selector built in 1 unit, so I can select which game system I want, and will switch to that hdmi, and power on that plug/power supply only, so don't have all game systems powered all the time, but can't find anything like. May just have to make something myself.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Maybe start a kick starter page and sell them, yea right. Big N would prob C&D me, not anything Big N related, but just because that's what they do nowdays. Then come out with they own in a year or so.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nice. Which operating system are you installing?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, windows 10 and some linux distro like linux mint
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    dualbooth
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Yeah, I'd recommend having another OS just in-case you want to play games.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least Linux doesn't contain spyware than what Windows has.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:

    @SylverReZ,
    I recall @impeeza mentioned some trick about not having bloatware when installing windows where you set up your country to "world" or smh like that

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

    @SylverReZ,
    I also recall my brother downloded a "non bloated" version of windows 11 on his pc

  • impeeza @ impeeza:
    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.
