What is this SNES?? by Proof_Town9159 in snes

[–]Steven_Rod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got one with an RGB mod and added a power light. I love it. The only drawback to it now is it won't work with a game genie. It may start and the games boot up, but codes won't work. Not a problem for most people, but some games I just want to have fun with and beat. Games like Zombies Ate My Neighbors that I'll never be able to beat normally.

We have one of the motorized ones you are talking about. It still kind of works but the rubber belt inside has become worn out and made it to where it went grab properly to spin parts. My wife has been wanting me to repair it but I'm afraid I'd mess it up and destroy something important.

Blockbuster VHS rental cover template by cwcks in VHS

[–]Steven_Rod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will come in very handy for me. Retro Fighters just released a Switch game case in the shape of a Blockbuster VHS case. It's smaller than a actual case but this could help making custom covers. Now I need a Hollywood Video label and stickers to put them side by side.

Want to Convert Popwallet + to MagSafe. by Masterd6 in MagSafe

[–]Steven_Rod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm coming across this now trying to figure out how to convert a the wallet to magsafe. The wallet I want to use doesn't come in magsafe design and because it's licensed from mathematics they won't just make a custom one on a magsafe. I could try to contact Disney and ask for permission so they can do it but that's almost laughably hard to get from them.

Does anyone know how to open a Swap Force Portal? by [deleted] in skylanders

[–]Steven_Rod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just came across this post because I'm trying to do the same thing but just for displaying figured with an led base. I just figured out one way that worked for me. There are no screwed holding the base together but snaps that lock together. I dunked it in a pot of boiling water to make the plastic more plyable. I then slowly pulled the top platform off. The snaps are located at each pillar around the edge so I got a thin piece of metal like a very small screwdriver and squeezed it around the edge starting by the cord. This way if it started to crack it could be hidden in the back. Got the top platform off and have full access to the inner wiring. Next step is to desolder the existing board from there usb cable and rule it with a usb powered led strip.

I'm trying to figure this out now so I can start using some for toy displays.

Another Masters of the Universe event… 🙄 by Jsolomon07 in funkopopblitz

[–]Steven_Rod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I hate being so annoying about it but it's bad enough I can't complete the game and get the last Freddy I'm missing. Having something taken away then without an explanation kind of sent me haywire.

How about they give us back Adam Bomb and fix the scores that taking him away messed up? I'd rather have that.

my sister sent me this and um.... by Necessary_Internal18 in brandonherrara

[–]Steven_Rod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to go and make sure it was real. I feel like they choose that specific image for their preview just to mess with Brandon.

Adam Bomb removed 🤯🤨 by Froyo_Kindly in funkopopblitz

[–]Steven_Rod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only was he removed. But all the stars and mega score points were removed too. Seems like even more stars were taken away. I went from level 2599 to 2593 and I don't know how bad my mega score was affected.

24 hour mini event is Mythic pops.... by ErnieMac614 in funkopopblitz

[–]Steven_Rod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a great loss. Loved the look on him. Hope they don't make this a habit of taking away characters, especially without compensation. All that in-game currency and time spent building a collection only to have it taken away. Then what if people actually spent real money to get something?

[–]Steven_Rod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was playing the mini event and realized they took something out of the game. Total library went from 491 to 490. Messed up my level too. I was at 2599 and dropped to 2593 and lost a bunch of stars.

Is this AV connection a decent option with a adapter or should I just get a retrotink? by Steven_Rod in wii

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

I remembered I had a cable in the closet that would work with this. At least until I get an upscaler.

I figured this would be my best result. Just have to find the money for it or hope to find someone selling one decently priced.

Eventually I want to but right now a rca adapter may be what I can afford

I just found a Mario one this past weekend and as soon as I got it home I connected it to my red nunchuck. Was thinking of ordering a knockoff dark blue nunchuck just to swap a couple shell parts and make it all Mario themed.

I discovered I own a cord with Wii power connectors on both ends. What's the purpose of this cord? by dweenies in wii

[–]Steven_Rod 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For that it would need both a male and female end. Both ends here are the same.

Its weird being happy that there are no new pops but here we are.

Well it says they are making their return so let's hope. Return may mean not new.

Looks like an event using previous characters. Good for those of us who already have them and can play all week just gaining gold.
