(They/them) Kalamazoo FGC TO, retro gaming hardware restorations, custom controllers, fighting games, and other nerd trash.
Give us a reissue of the @acai.bsky.social doohickey in another color. Imagine the nerves hitting shockwave on emulator with this. Itd be so clean.

The amount of work and dedication its taken to get everything together for competative guitar hero has been a ride. Stream setup, done, consoles (ps2 and 360) done, guitars, done. I love this community so much. You all make it worth it.

Vinyl wrapped and rescued an old mayflash guitar controll34. Used a fretboard from retrocultmods and the original strumboard. Uses new old stock alps blues on the strum and kalih choc ghosts on the frets.

Just finished modding this Hori Rap EX for myself. Went with a Seimitsu Nobi and Qanba Gravity KS buttons. Used a brook gen5x as the brain. It was awful to mod since i had to buy specialized tools, but im loving it so far.

Just installed a pi pico kit in an old SG for guitar hero and rock band on my rgh 360 and clone hero. Thing works like a dream. Big thanks to @retrocultmods.bsky.social for the strumboard.

Brought a nice flying v guitar hero controller back from the grave for clone hero. Wire and a pi was 20 bucks, the guitar was ewaste. Life is good.

A sampling of some fightsticks and hitboxes i've cooked up during convention crunch for Isshocon.

Some decent retro pickups this weekend. Super stoked to finally have the sly cooper games finished off.

Super proud of how this pair of fightsticks came out. Still needs some finishing touches but, they're looking good.

Cant wait to start cooking with the soldering iron. This pricepoint for a brook board is stupid for ps4/pc support. Expect leverless and fightstick builds soon.

Going through the final rounds of testing on some freshly refurbed gamecube controllers. Once they all pass find them on our etsy and at Isshocon. We'll be in the arcade at Isshocon. Can't wait to see you there.

Finished a super nintendo reshell. I think the acrylic came out super slick.
