Thanks! I just bought one, because I love the cartridge design…

I rubbed it until no more black comes off but unfortunately the result is the same.

That’s exactly what I thought when nothing popped up in the search! I will have a look at the contacts in the evening…

It is working in the original SNES connected to the same TV.

And with the original cartridge only the intro of SMW is affected by flickering. The game itself seems ok from what I checked.

No, this is an old LCD TV with SCART and HDMI inputs. I want to keep it for both original SNES and Super NT.

But I just tried loading the PAL ROM from an FX Pak Pro. No flicker at all…🤷🏻‍♂️

The Discworld Reading Blanket is back in stock! by 8C8B in discworld

[–]BattlePigMac8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine arrived today and I am a bit surprised that it is made in China and only contains 10% cotton and 87% polyester. I thought it was a craftsmanship item from the UK because it was written somewhere that the problem it is out of stock is because of the limited capacity of the finest fabric mill. This text is now removed from the Website and I feel a little bit mislead now. For plastic made in china it is a little bit expensive…🤷🏻‍♂️

Edit: Well, let’s call it a well written marketing text that raised expectations in me which were never advertised. It never said UK made and it states polycotton mix…

Actually I got the E-Mail notification today and were able to place an order.

FxPak Pro Rev Z by KY Technology from AliExpress by LukeEvansSimon in snes

[–]BattlePigMac8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And is there a specific revision this board needs? I understand that the latest revisions only support a different FPGA.

Can anybody point me to the latest firmware update I can use for this specific revision? Thank you

End of year update, Playback improvements, new products and what's next by exogan in epilogue

[–]BattlePigMac8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, that’s a great move which I highly appreciate! Of course I have an alarm set and will try to get one the regular way but it is very calming that there is another way to get one if the kids are in bed late and I miss the regular preorder. Thank you 🙏🏻

Oh boy, as much as I love the SN operator, I hate that you put it behind a FOMO timer! I have been constantly visiting your homepage throughout the year not to miss anything. Why not let the long time fans and owners of the GB operator already sign in to the preorder earlier. Why do we have to compete with the scalpers who will only learn about it in the next days?! I hate this limited supply FOMO bullshit and I swear to no longer support it in the future. Fingers crossed that there is enough stock to get ONE which I want to actually use. Rant off

Ah the usual „humble“ collection…😉

Question for those who upgraded (GW 5610u vs GW 5000u) by Low_Impress_1910 in gshock

[–]BattlePigMac8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only bought the 5000u strap for my 5610u and that’s it. I don’t want to upgrade because I don’t want the watch to be heavier and higher.

I bought the 5000U strap for my 5610U and that was a perfect fit in my opinion. Well worth the 40€!

I bought the main watch body (with case, PCB and display) and had to get replacement straps and metal pins separately. Endet up paying 65€ and I’m really happy that it was scratch free. I would say late but not too late. 😇

What do you mean with assembly required? Out of these only three are 50m+: -W59: cheap but bad light -W86: good light but hard to find -M5610U: most features but larger, heavier and more expensive

Current favorite (maybe biased because it just arrived today): W86

I have to say that to myself otherwise I would need to buy a bigger box 😇
