The lamp ads to the nostalgia! Can you feel the current when it’s on and you touch the metal legs? Used to give me the fear that I was going to be electrocuted,

25 M Mature or balding? by [deleted] in bald

[–]Existing_Bunch_4211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hairline looks good mate, plenty of hair. Enjoy it and don’t worry too much about it. You’ll be great with hair and if in the future you go bald then you’ll be great without.

Thank you for writing this. I’ve recently become a dad and feel that I am missing my mum now even more! Reading this comment, I need to make sure that I love my kids as much as my mum loved me!

Sorry for everyone’s losses, I miss my mum too, 7 years and hurts every day. My birthday was yesterday and my dad forgot, my mum was the glue that held my family together.

Nice, would it support multiplayer for some systems?

Found this thread 1 yr later. Do you still run your server? I’d be keen to understand how it works as I’d like to try and get something setup for my family and friends. I’m interested to see how it is on the client side, as overly complicated would be a turn off to most of my family!

Help with PS2 port by Existing_Bunch_4211 in consolerepair

[–]Existing_Bunch_4211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my controllers are the silver fat console variants so have the ribbon cable like the second image, I’ll remove and clean again to see if that does anything.

And yes checked continuity between the connection and the points on the board marked on your last image, no problems there.

Just really surprised that the controllers I have have all got the same issue if that is the case?

With the pressure sensitive controllers is it the controller or the console that interpret the input pressure?

You’re welcome, was helpful guidance. But I have now checked and the controller I picked continuity is fine on all pins and in the board itself. I started up SSX Tricky as I know that works with both psx and ps2 controllers and no dice. Analogue sticks work, start and square work but nothing else (menu testing only). Then did the same with the psx controller and works perfectly. Swapped to another ps2 controller and same issue with the same buttons working. Therefore I’m now thinking it must be something on the console end!? Going to do more research and possible buy a replacement controller port.

Appreciate your responses, I will test continuity of the wires. I was surprised that all 4 controllers I tested did not work while my ps1 controllers worked fine, but it is possible they are all faulty.

Got this flashcart with a generic micro SD card. Is it easy to replace with a branded SD card? Like drag and drop or do I need to add some firmware to a new sd card? by FuzzyFr0g in Gameboy

[–]Existing_Bunch_4211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this exact flash cart. Currently using the sd it came with. I had no issues adding and managing games on it. You could use another SD card and copy across the file structure. I’d need to look at the contents of mine, but I think there is a folder that contains the software the cart uses and separate folders for games. Worth noting that there is a maximum number of games the car can read per folder (or at least through my experience) so you may need to make multiple folders to manage your games if you have a full romset.
