I still can't believe that I found this Toshiba 32-in CRT with component inputs next to a donation dumpster on my lunch break. The only problem was the power button was sticking. Luckily my friend was able to 3D model a fix for it. Works like a charm!

I decided to make some custom cases for my Lightscribe burned PS1 games so they can blend in on the shelf!

What are some other good high dollar games should I burn and make a custom case for?

Loved listening to this! As an OLED owner, I'm looking forward to seeing more progress on this. Would love to see this become essentially plug and play with my PS3.
Can't wait to get these bad boys!

Brought this Game Gear back from the dead! ☠️ In addition to a full recap, I gave it some quality of life improvements including new USBC recharging capabilities, a new audio amp, and a new HD IPS Screen from Benn Venn.

Just got this beautiful custom copy of the English translated Policenauts, courtesy of Pipe Dreams Games. Can't wait to finally play this Kojima classic on the Saturn with a lightgun!

I love that color! Was that all custom painted or is this release color I'm just not aware of?
Finally decked out my GameCube with the #FlippyDrive, MemCardPro, and BlueRetro Bluetooth adapter! Now I just need to wait for a lan update, then I'll deck out my second GameCube for Double Dash!! Thanks @chrispville.bsky.social for this perfect product!

Just cleared off my garage table and started the scary process of CRT yolk adjustments. 😬 I also experienced my first flyback discharge. So far so good with these two Sonys! #crt #crtrepair #yokeadjustments #retrogaming #sonytrinitron
Finally finished my fully modded out Halo Edition Xbox with a new fan, 1tb SSD swap, disc drive swap, and the Project Stellar modchip! Had a blast breaking it in with some online Halo 2 through Insignia!

I'm not yet. I'll need to hop in. Do you all play on comms through the console or do you usually chat through discord?
I think I may have gotten the ultimate controller... I can't wait to test out Steel Battalion and the online Line of Contact through the Xbox Live replacement @insignia.live! Now I just need to finish modding up my Xbox.

Found this DDR pad at my local game store. Being a sucker for peripherals, I had to get it. Never really played DDR much before, it may be over 20 years late, either way I'm having a blast! And getting a workout!

Oh, I see I was attempting to connect my PS5 controllers via Bluetooth. So the PS3/4/5 controllers only connect in wired mode. Will these eventually be able to connect wirelessly via Bluetooth?
I'm not sure why, but I cannot get the Bluetooth to work. I enabled it in settings, hit save, and when I come back to the page, it disables it. Also when I hit pair, it tries to pair endlessly.

Are there known bugs with the Bluetooth connectivity? Is there anything else I can try?
Finally added an original Xbox to my collection! This is one of the few consoles I've never owned or really played before. Can't wait to break it in. And of course I had to get the Halo edition.

Thanks, it was the most complicated console I've ever had to disassemble. And I had to do it twice for this project! 🙃 I'm just glad it worked out especially since I wasn't sure if it was all going to connect the same.
I haven't seen that one of his. But I'm not surprised, everything I've seen of his is pretty much gold.
Just finished up this shell swap, upgrading my backwards compatible Wii with this donor Family Edition Wii. The donor console and controllers were pretty nasty on the inside. Luckily I was able to clean them and get rid of all traces of corrosion.

Thanks! You guys have a great quality shell that really shows off the internals.
Just got this smoke gray clear shell from @stoneagegamer.com, finishing up my fully modded NES! It currently has the RGB multiout mod, the Nintendrawer replacement, and the NES Hub, giving it bluetooth and expansion audio capability. #nintendrawer #rgbmod #neshub
