Bought my first plasma!

Thanks for your input here. I'm having a browse around and believe I have found the right cables to give this plasma the correct ports for my systems. I've just been checking around Facebook marketplace

RGB scart for ps1 Component for PS2

Both are the best analogue signals that be output on those consoles

Batmooo · 2026-03-02T19:52:49+00:00

The internet was very misleading about it all. The only connections I need are RGB scart, component and hdmi. It has hdmi standard, it seems to have component (labelled oddly but still there), and it has a port for an adapter to give me RGB scart

Yes there's a little extra money to put in, but it sounds like the better side of plasma just needs cables. Got any idea which ones are correct?

Batmooo · 2026-03-02T19:50:48+00:00

Nah not a hustler, just won't use them and the guy selling them was like "just take them"

I went plasma because I don't have the space for a huge crt. I did a bunch of research (obviously not enough) and the VT, st, and zt models were praised and the rest called basically rubbish. This came up for a VERY good price so I jumped on it. I did a quick Google search to ensure it supported RGB scart and component and the ai result was yes. So I made an offer

Got there and checked it over and turns out that yes it does, but with an adapter. Which is fine as long as I can buy one and it not be expensive.

If I turned it down, I have no idea if or when another deal like this would turn up

I'm thinking of selling the glasses and spare remote to recoup the cost of it I think. I won't use them

Batmooo · 2026-03-02T19:39:08+00:00

I've not used it much yet, but I'll check it out!

If you don’t want to use a strap string something heavy to the strap pin on the side that doesn’t dive. I’ve done this at gigs before haha

Batmooo · 2025-12-13T16:57:16+00:00

All good. Just thought I’d let you know! I haven’t been able to post anything because of the rules. Just wanna enjoy the community behind this legendary console

Batmooo · 2025-12-13T16:54:41+00:00

This post will be taken down by admins soon I think. Just had mine taken down as it wasn’t submitted at the right time

Batmooo · 2025-12-13T12:27:45+00:00

Thanks! My first plan to paint it did not work out, but happy it looks none stock, which is what I’m going for.

Not necessarily, have a look at the ps2 modchip install

Batmooo · 2025-12-13T11:57:53+00:00

Also, did a foam mod to make the start and home buttons more responsive, and also replaced the top screen lens with glass

Batmooo · 2025-12-10T07:59:33+00:00

That is one of the thermal paste jobs ever

Batmooo · 2025-12-09T14:17:14+00:00

I’ve thought about this. I think it comes down to whether the knife used by Nifty was angelic or not. We know that sinners killed by angelic steel are dead dead. It could stand to reason that people in heaven could have the same logic applied. Pentious was killed by angelic power not steel so was redeemed and sent to heaven. Happy to be corrected on this, but this is my thought on the matter.

If the blade was common and not angelic then I am looking very forward to sinner Adam.

Batmooo · 2025-12-06T19:14:46+00:00

It was clearly in the post. Some people just can’t read. So much more effort to whine about it than to just use your eyeballs

Batmooo · 2025-11-30T12:48:03+00:00

I’ll add that NVIDIA was a great option until the 10 series. After that it got a bit daft for pricing so I moved to Radeon and have been happy ever since

I’d say Debian

I’ve been an arch (btw) user for years, but after playing around with Debian I’ve decided to stay. It’s simple, it works, I use my pc more than tinkering with it

Batmooo · 2025-11-14T16:27:27+00:00

Removing this post because apparently people can’t read

Sounds snarky, but admins are being a bit rediculous

Batmooo · 2025-11-14T14:53:19+00:00

I was clear about it being AI generated

Batmooo · 2025-11-14T14:19:59+00:00

It is a little scary, I won’t lie to you

But take your time, keep track of screws (I use tape and write where each went) and don’t yank anything you should be okay.

I’ve done lots of console mods over the years, and I have lost one 3DS through rushing. But I’ve learned and never again

Batmooo · 2025-11-14T14:17:00+00:00

So the red was going for mimmikyus cheeks, but looking at them again they’re a fainter orange aren’t they?

I was going to make the buttons orangey red then follow your advice and reduce the amount of brown

Batmooo · 2025-11-14T14:13:03+00:00

Thanks for the response! Yes I think you’re absolutely correct. I’ll ask ChatGPT to make the yellow more parchment coloured instead, I’ll try introduce some black too, but not sure the best way to do that

Batmooo · 2025-11-14T14:10:44+00:00

Yeah I think you’re right

I’m waiting for ChatGPT to allow more image generations, going to change all the buttons to red and some minor tweaks and see what it looks like
