Ordered these a while ago from japan. They came in today. I'm blown away at how good the condition of the Game boy light is.

I bought some nostalgia to repair and mod.

View attachment 282865
I bought one about 3 years ago to recap and install a better screen. It also came with the screw on battery pack, that lasts about 15 minutes and I was going to replace the battery in it. Never ended up modded it or replacing the caps cause it still works and cause I don't really play it all that much to even bother with it. I do want to at least mod the battery pack with a newer rc battery

Keep close attention to the old caps at least. Even without usage they may leak.

@subcon959 , a couple days ago I bought psn+ from cdkeys. I was nervous doing this, because I don't want to get banned for getting a cheaper psn+. it was only $39.99 instead of $59.99, but a friend of mine has free psn 'til 2035 due to a mistake sony made with free trials. I'm not sure if sony can find this stuff out or not, but I kinda regret getting it for cheaper because of that. don't want my ps5 account or ps5 banned for it.

@Chary , I beat the first game on the 360, think it was when I was still using a flashed drive, but I'm not sure. haven't really played the other two. I have them, pirated, on my ps3. one thing I remember is that the title in the xmb uses a weird title name pointer for the game name. the editor shows the English name first, but there's a separate English name that you need to change if you want to change the game name. think it says (digital) or has a trademark symbol or something, which I find irritating.

    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.

    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • T @ TheSusKing:

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
