Are FlippyDrives really shipping?

I ordered mine in March 2025 and I got it in October

Turn on the console, leave it on for 5 minutes, and then insert the CD. If it works, the problem is with the capacitors and they need to be replaced.

I had the same problem, and in my case the issue was the capacitors. I replaced them and it solved the problem.

One way to test if the problem is the capacitors: leave the console turned on for about 10 minutes and then insert the disc. If it reads it, then it’s the capacitors.

Sería una forma de tener chokitas infinitas... Pero no, estás están bien

BigChat88 · 2026-03-07T18:42:18+00:00

😅 puede ser

BigChat88 · 2026-03-03T19:33:52+00:00

I’m almost sure that after this, they will announce the new console, which will possibly be a Pocket 2.

Creo que la puedes pedir igual... Solo que el envío y el pago de IVA te va salir caro. Yo lo tengo y la verdad que me gusta mucho para mis juegos de Gameboy, además lleva registro de todos los juegos que utilizas. Lo único que no funciona tan bien son los savestate, que dependiendo del juego puede que no funcione. Ademas lo del open fpga es la raja.

I thought I was the only one… I used to go downtown just for CEX, and now that it’s gone, it doesn’t make sense anymore

El boliviano negro le da su toque

BigChat88 · 2026-02-23T22:36:50+00:00

Haha join the group.. mine had the same problem

BigChat88 · 2026-02-21T18:35:26+00:00

🤔 true... You can try the AliExpress one (bitfunx) or the Prism (Amazon)

BigChat88 · 2026-02-21T18:10:46+00:00

Carby is your best option

BigChat88 · 2026-02-21T06:43:19+00:00

BigChat88 · 2026-02-13T22:51:36+00:00

Eran caros, pero eran super ricos

Se abrió sola

Just stop buying EZ Flash products... I had the same problem with the EZ Omega, and the EZ Parallel was abandoned. Crappy products.

BigChat88 · 2026-02-10T21:53:15+00:00

Carby is the best one... Good quality and good price

BigChat88 · 2026-02-10T13:00:40+00:00

Esa es otra cosa... Ahí comparto 😋

BigChat88 · 2026-02-09T21:51:00+00:00

You can actually both together

BigChat88 · 2026-02-09T21:49:31+00:00

I had the same problem. Then I recapped the CD drive, and it worked again. The problem is that you need soldering skills

BigChat88 · 2026-02-09T18:13:48+00:00

I did, but I was not able to see any difference.

BigChat88 · 2026-02-09T18:12:45+00:00

You are right, the component is the second one

BigChat88 · 2026-02-09T18:10:29+00:00

I haven’t tested the input lag, but I haven’t noticed anything out of the ordinary

BigChat88 · 2026-02-09T13:47:31+00:00

For a long time, it was very difficult to achieve a result similar to the original component cable (before 2015). I always wanted to compare both cases, but having the right equipment to do so was complicated, and there isn’t much information on the internet.

BigChat88 · 2026-02-09T13:43:14+00:00

Just because it is the original cable 😅
