Clever idea, instead of throwing away broken consoles, turn them into art

I'm full of poef.

I'd rather repair like I did/busy with the GameCube controllers and consoles.

Like my 1 GameCube no longer reads discs. Installed Picoboot and all is well with it.

On my 1 GameBoy Colour I just need to understand how a small transistor/resister works for power distribution and I can fix the board again. (Just buy the parts)

Now I know where to send my broken consoles. Thanx. Do you buy parts from xmods locally?

No no, I just TRY to fix some of the stuff I can sort of fix.

Seems I have bought from XMods before:

P.S. Those replacement parts did not work.

Even the new Joy Con parts had "Tokyo joy con driftuu".

Can anyone guide me in the right direction here please. Imported a sega saturn from the USA.

I see its 120V. For starters, do I need a stepdown from 220v to 120v ?

Power Supply ! 110v-120v conversion to 220-240v Tutorial | The Sega Saturn Forum - セガサターン - SegaSaturn.co.uk

Well, The title says it all, I've managed to buy a Yamaha for my beloved Saturn (MK-80200A-50). My saturn is completely okay except that it came without a power supply! I do know that my unit works!

Asked for R50 off, got it and ordered it. R300 +R30 shipping. Just Hope the Soviet disc is not scratched too badly.

Very nice. I should get my xbox 360 collection going, seems prices have been increasing a bit on some games, I want to get some before it's too late, or the discs too badly damaged. Really want some racing games. tomb raider, and a couple of mix and match. Got my Xbox super cheap, just haven't gotten around to getting more, extra controller and more games......This thread annoyingly should be avoided like the money pit it is :D
 
Anyone here playing PS1 games on PS2 using Funtuna and the ISO files?

I got GTA2 running using OPL 10th anniversary and the game itself runs no problem.
But it does not save. It creates the virtual memory cards but does not work.

Any ideas?
 
Taking my old school gaming seriously.

Finished Underground 1 for pc.
Finished Red Alert 2 Soviet and Allies.

@EL'Diablo got me jealous so this pay day thinking of increasing my PS2 collection a bit
