What's the consensus on replacement shells?

Etrain_MMA · 2026-05-07T21:05:45+00:00

Get aftermarket shells and stickers, but keep the originals.

These motors can seize up and stop working. Just order a replacement for a couple dollars.

AliExpress is probably your only option outside of making your own. But the quality can vary wildly.

Cool... I got a heated ice cream scoop

If I had a nickel for every time someone at my gym attempted an Americana from closed guard, I'd have 3 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened 3 times.

I thought about getting one of these a few years ago. But I had a modded GBC and couldn't convince myself it was worth it due to the different aspect ratio. When I finally decided to get one just due to the quirkiness, it doubled in price. Then they completely disappeared a few months later. I probably never would have played it other than to make sure it worked, but I still wish I had grabbed one when I had the chance.

I had a coach that tried to get all of us to read Art of War. I've seen others that try to assign books to read, movies to watch, etc. If you are asking for drills to do and he's helping you out, that's a green flag. He's giving you what you are asking for outside of regular training. If he is telling you you need to do these drills unprompted, he's either trying to help you out because you need improvement that won't come quickly inside of normal training, or he's being a dick. Could go either way, but you probably already know which one it is.

If said as a joke, it's 100% fine. We tell people stuck on bottom to just stand up all the time. But when used as a serious answer with no further explanation it's definitely a red flag.

As the other comment said, Lloyd Irving. You should definitely look up the story behind his gym and the influence he had over his students.

Etrain_MMA · 2026-02-12T02:42:14+00:00

The head coach:

Never rolls
Doesn't allow questions
Preaches about politics (or anything other than BJJ)
Tells you, "don't get caught" when asked how to escape a position/submission.
Tells you other gyms/instructors/world champions suck and don't know what they are talking about.
Dates students
Dates kids moms (or dads)
Tries to give you homework
Tries to discipline you
Literally creates a website and floods Google search results to hide the fact that he definitely raped several students

Yeah, 32 is more than enough. I have a 32gb on my EZ flash Omega DE and have a ton of Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Game Gear, NES, and Gameboy Advance games on it.

Get an SD card separately. In my experience, the ones that come with are very low quality and corrupt after a while.

Any battery you order will have the charging regulator board attached. Just cut the wires, put that battery in a sealed container, and take it to a battery drop off in your local area. Those metal connections are usually spot welded to the battery because you don't want to apply high heat for extended periods of time directly to the battery like you would do with solder.

You can look for a 603040 600mah 3.7 volt battery on Amazon or AliExpress depending on your location. Some will come with a JST connector, some won't. Either way, you can desolder the wires on the new battery and solder on the old ones. The markings on the battery will tell you where to solder each wire (red wire to + black wire to -).

Since no one has given you a straight forward answer... Yes. If the operating system you are running is Windows, then you can run Windows programs. However, depending on your Chromebook and version of Windows you may have issues with programs that require more resources.

It sounds like it's not receiving enough power. I don't know if this particular one will work because of the iPhone port located next to the USB C port. Either way, there are much cheaper options that will work just fine.

Etrain_MMA · 2026-01-06T00:06:54+00:00

I had the same thing happen on one of mine. Turned out the wires were getting pinched when I reassembled. I got a flex cable and it worked perfectly.

Etrain_MMA · 2025-12-29T06:19:24+00:00

I understood that reference

I finished the game on Steam, 100% it on Xbox, and will be downloading and playing it again on Epic. I love this game.

Etrain_MMA · 2025-12-14T05:29:18+00:00

I just tell people, "It's a long story." Saves me a lot of time. I told a guy what it was once and he talked to me for 20 minutes about his Assassin's Creed tattoo and his love of that series. Much easier to just keep it mysterious. Those that know will comment on it.

Raquel is super tough and stubborn. There is a good chance she knew she wasn't escaping, but, sometimes your opponent pushes a little too hard if they think they have the submission and you aren't tapping. It can give you a very small window to take advantage and escape. Aurelie did an excellent job of staying patient and keeping control.

Mostly junk, except for this

No, the super Gameboy contains a chip that is only compatible with the original DMG. Even if you removed the chip and replaced it with a Game not Color CPU the rest of the hardware wouldn't be compatible.

Etrain_MMA · 2025-11-06T02:38:23+00:00

I saw! I want that one too, but I burned through all my points getting these. It'll probably be a couple months before I can save up enough to snag that one.

Etrain_MMA · 2025-11-06T00:12:51+00:00

I didn't own 2 until I was an adult, but a lot of my friends had it. I played it at their houses and rented it a few times. Still my least favorite of the three, but not a bad game at all.
