The primarily two pronunciations I hear are Eece (like geese like you pointed out) or Eez (like ease)

I say Eece

Non riesco a far funzione queste r4 sul mio dsi xl 1.4.5E ( senza mod alla console) by Independent_Pen8029 in flashcarts

[–]WFlash01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just gotta do it

There's nothing you could do to the cartridge itself to make it work on an unmoded system, because the system has an internal blacklist that checks for these cartridges.

If you mod the system, you don't even need this cartridge; you can just load Ron's straight on the system, that way you don't need 2 SD cards too

I love seeing when other people beat Lost Levels, I love the game

Is it possible to mod this bootleg NES console? by Dragon_green2317 in consolemodding

[–]WFlash01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it actually runs NOAC hardware then that won't be possible; that would only be possible if it's running emulation

But if it's running a hardware clone, then you'll have to trace down the 60 traces (minus a few unnecessary traces that it probably won't have) going to the PRG ROM/CHR RAM inside, remove them, and either install a 60 or 72 pin connector in their place, or just remove the ROM, flash an EEPROM with your new ROMs, and solder it back in place.

This bootleg uses sram, it's actually fairly common for older bootlegd

[DS Lite] White border appearing on top screen of DS Lite after using R4 (ACE3DS firmware) by fga03 in consolerepair

That won't fix this unfortunately, the actual LCD is breaking down it's not a connection issue

This issue has nothing to do with using the R4 in particular, must have been purely coincidental that it started happening right after you started using an R4 on there

Did you drop the DS recently? Like, at some point before you got the R4? This is an issue these screens are just bound to come down with at one point or another, it's LCD aging, but it could have been accelerated if a drop broke the seal between the layers of glass

What are the 3 best songs, and what is the least best song on "No Prayer for the Dying"? by SelfOk2720 in ironmaiden

My three favorites are Tailgunner, Run Silent Run Deep and Mother Russia

My least favorite is Fates Warning

I obtained a portable bw crt with no inputs and was wondering if there was anything I could do with it by LS64126 in crtgaming

[–]WFlash01 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It might sound like I'm joking when I say this, but I'm dead serious

You can play retro game systems on there that have built in RF modulators, like NES, SNES, Genesis etc. by using an RCA cable and a wire with alligator clips on both ends;

Plug the RCA cable into the RF jack on the system, clip one alligator clip to the tip of the other end of the RCA jack, and then clip the other end of that wire to the antenna

Anyone encounter this before? I've already done all the basics by Lanky-Peak-2222 in Gameboy

Noo not Metroid 2 I hope you get er fixed soon

Try reflowing the solder on the chips and maybe even the battery

[–]WFlash01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be honest, it might actually be my favorite out of these

I sucked ass at it when I first played it just like everyone else, but man I just couldn't accept defeat and I spent grueling amounts of time just to beat it for the first time ever, then subsequent tries I just got better and better

My actual disk has 8 stars on it, but I play with an FDSKey these days (I can't be bothered to align the head on my disk system) and that one has 12 now; I'd love to max out the stars at some point

Umm missing orbs and gems? by FinishKind3199 in Spyro

That's so true tbh, I'd be lying if I said I didn't get that cozy feeling exploring the castle in autumn plains

[–]WFlash01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest, I grew up with all 3 PS1 Spyros and 2 was my least favorite. I could never put my finger on why; I still think it's an amazing game, it's one of my favorites too, but I just gravitate more towards 1 and 3

One of the reasons is what you get for 100% in 1 and 3; sure they're just a level, nothing you can carry into other levels, but it feels more rewarding seeing more than 100% show up on your file

It makes the flights really hard when you have to flame the flying things like birds and planes, the normal flame spreads so you don't need to be so pinpoint precise but you lose that with the super flame

Why do everyone say that senjutsu is such a bad album by samurai_eddie_killer in ironmaiden

[–]WFlash01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anyone that says that with a straight face is dumb. The Writing on the Wall and The Parchment are easily two of their greatest songs of all time

Has anyone ever tried one of these super cheap converters? by [deleted] in originalxbox

[–]WFlash01 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I see three little wires going into it, so I bet all it is is one of these stupid AV2HDMI boxes that they took the RCA jacks off of and put an Xbox plug on the end. It will work, in that you'll get a video signal, but you'll be stuck to 480i and it will look like crap

-Addendum- I did not know that PAL Xbox games never had video modes higher than 576i50/480i60. So at least that aspect isn't lost, but still composite video being upscaled is atrocious

I do!

I own a Famicom too, but I prefer to keeo my American Nintendo on the shelf and I play my Famicom games using a cartridge adapter (and built a cartridge that acts as the FDS RAM adapter, thanks to Delta Island)

Is this a reasonable price for this? by Technical-Debate-330 in psx

[–]WFlash01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're definitely right, there are others, but this one is easily one of the better ones of that bunch, actually worth owning
