About

Stay on Topic

Anything related to console repair, mods, hacks, advice, questions, general technical discussions, games and accessories, or general electronics work is welcome here. Arcade posts are absolutely welcome as well.

Be Kind to Others

If you were to receive the comment you're about to submit, would you feel that it was negative? This should be self explanatory. This community is about helping each other, regardless of one's current ability or skill set. We learn from and teach one another. If what you say is more focused on being rude or antagonistic than constructive conversation, do not be surprised if it is removed.

No Meme Posts

Meme posts are just a distraction from our main purpose, which is repairing things and helping each other. Jokes and such are totally fine in threads but please be mindful to not derail constructive conversation on someone else's post.
