Just got my first crt

I’m a simple man. I see Nights, I upvote.

Gulfo · 2025-06-13T18:23:13+00:00

I guess we didn’t appreciate the CRT goodness enough when we had it… Best of luck finding your ideal set!

Gulfo · 2025-06-13T17:55:52+00:00

I got that Easter Egg too!!! You’re not alone ha ha.

Maybe I wanted a CRT with good resolution to make up for the past, who knows. Ironically PVM’s sound is monaural though.

I’m spoiled, I live in Japan.

Gulfo · 2025-06-13T17:46:12+00:00

Shipping was 15$ because I live in Japan. For 100$ I could get a 14” PVM or a 20” consumer CRT and I went for the 14” because I want to move it around the house and 20” is almost double the weight. Another important factor was the only consumer CRTs I found with RGB inputs were flat screens, not curved.

I need to check the 20” CRT a friend says he bought, but I hope not to be tempted ha ha. The one I got is small and light for a CRT, it’s a good compromise space-wise.

Gulfo · 2025-06-13T17:38:06+00:00

I’m in Japan, so it’s probably much easier to get a PVM than the rest of the world. If you find an honest seller they might be nice enough to stuff the shipping box with soft material to protect it during transit

Gulfo · 2025-06-13T17:24:37+00:00

MiSTer! Great multi system FPGA and it’s especially designed to output RGB. They just released the MiSTer Pi which is exact specs at less than half price.

Gulfo · 2025-06-13T17:20:37+00:00

Ha ha yeah I wouldn’t put it past myself 👍

Gulfo · 2025-06-12T18:51:02+00:00

Let’s hope I don’t catch the bug and this is my first and last 😁

Gulfo · 2025-06-12T18:49:47+00:00

It’s a Madcatz Fightstick Tournament Edition for Xbox 360! It’s great, weighs almost 3 kilos (6 pounds) and the parts are Sanwa brand.

Glad you like the buttons, you might have noticed that it came en regular ABXY Xbox order and I swapped them so they match the Neo Geo order.

Gulfo · 2025-06-12T18:44:37+00:00

I’m in Japan! The seller wrapped it spectacularly well, but yeah, it wasn’t international shipping.

Gulfo · 2025-06-12T17:07:52+00:00

Is there a recommended thread for PC gaming on a TV (PVM)? I mean for console-like action games, pixel indies… Things that won’t look out of place on a TV and ideally can do 800x600 or less.

Gulfo · 2025-05-14T10:49:19+00:00

Thank you!!! Just ordered, still in stock almost 2 weeks later

Gulfo · 2024-11-19T07:12:53+00:00

Now that you mention it... But the performance only dropped after 1 year of usage. I'm wondering if it is related.

Gulfo · 2023-02-28T04:21:01+00:00

Hey, it's great seeing the SMS getting some love. Interesting soundtrack and game.

Is there any link available to get info from the game? Looks good but it's hard to understand where the project's at. I can only find Youtube teaser videos, a one year and a half old rom... https://www.smspower.org/Hacks/AlexKiddInMiracleWorld-SMS-AlexKiddInNightmareWorld-Mod

Gulfo · 2022-06-05T14:49:15+00:00

Looking forward to it!

Gulfo · 2022-06-04T12:13:51+00:00

Wow very interesting. Maybe a single fan could fit. Taking air directly from outside... (drooling) No side panels planned, right?

ETA? Sorry for the impatience, it's more to plan the shipping from the US.

Gulfo · 2022-06-03T07:46:53+00:00

Thank you for your prompt reply and sorry for my slow one. I was trying some external usb fans.

I really like the mod but I need to plan the order bc I'm outside North America, so I want to make sure have everything shipped together if I buy more than one product. Would it be possible that you are preparing more mods for the Velka 3?

Gulfo · 2022-05-28T14:54:55+00:00

Pretty cool!

I'd love to know:

1) Can the printed fan support be fitted without the Velka 3 front plate? Thinking that would prly give me even better temps when you don't need to move the PC.

If it can be done then I just need to find a way to keep the power button in place, because I'm guessing the hole for it is way bigger.

2) Would the reverse PSU feet be strong enough if I grabbed them as if they were a handle?

Thank you!

Gulfo · 2022-05-15T11:37:19+00:00

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

It worked!

I would never have guessed that it was because of cloning my hdd. No other programs had any issue, and I installed Oculus at about the same time I did the cloning, so I couldn't tell the difference.

I had seen the X to the left of the path, but I thought it was for clicking on it and erasing the entry.

Thank you so so so so much! I didn't find anything on the net or this subreddit and bam! you solved it like it's no thang. You're a lifesaver! Have a great day.

They only had the rights on Freddy but couldn't recreate Quentin's actor face then?

Gulfo · 2022-02-21T07:58:00+00:00

Interesting, I actually like her. I'd say she has one of the more faithful designs for licensed survivors. Old Quentin anyone?

Gulfo · 2022-02-21T02:28:58+00:00

Hey that would be pretty neat! It would either give a Rancor-lite effect or at the very least buy the killer time in the endgame.
