Re: The "Look What I Did / Made" Thread

Nice! One day I’ll have to do that to my SNES mouse.

Re: Recapping and Consolizing a Game Gear (WIP)

DAMMIT! There's still an issue with glitchy video. :x Yesterday, I didn't have the controller port hooked up. So when I was testing, it was just on the intro, title screen and demo reels of Ecco and Sonic. Today I finished hooking up the controller mod, so now I can actually play the games. Ecco see...

Re: Recapping and Consolizing a Game Gear (WIP)

Progress! https://i.imgur.com/2wtlqN6.jpeg I shortened all of the wires for the video signals that input into the GGTV. They are pretty much as short as possible at this point, unless I relocate the GGTV board. And I made sure to route the pixel clock wire so that it can be as far from the other wir...

Re: Books!

I didn't even know about this book (or maybe I did and forgot). Sounds interesting. I just ordered a copy.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread

Well actually, the coffee maker was more expensive this time around. :lol: Just to shed some light... My old coffee maker was fine, it's just that I broke the decanter. The machine itself is fine. Maybe I could blame the fact that the glass was so thin, it was bound to break sooner or later. But occ...

Re: Random Thoughts Thread

Right. That's not to say that EVERYTHING is made poorly these days. And there definitely are some things that are still made very well, like the KitchenAid mixer. But apparently the same brand (I wont mention them by name) drip pot coffee maker today is super shit compared to the equivalent class on...

Re: Random Thoughts Thread

I've been use to the fact that "they don't make it as good as they use to." But usually I'm referring to something I bought decades ago, or something that was my parent's or grandparent's from many decades ago. It's no secret that things are NOT made as good anymore, but it never dawned on...

Re: Any love for the 32X ?

The region mod is on the Genesis itself, not the 32X. Ah, gotchya. I still probably wont do it, though. Simply because I have the flash cart, I can either use a patched ROM or Game Genie codes to bypass the region check. If I were to start collecting imports though, I would definitely want to mod t...

This guy is awesome for making and posting this. I just printed up the back/front, and while not perfect, it came out good enough for me.

Re: Any love for the 32X ?

I love having a 3D printer. :D https://www.printables.com/model/229612-sega-32x-riser-for-megadrivegenesis-2 Pretty much unnecessary accessory, but it's awesome being able to simply print one up. And the person that designed this did a good job. They did it in two halves, so each half has a flat bot...
