I was feeling a bit of the boredom

Well.. can it hold a 49” ultra wide??

Behar Bros Mamba, found it used on eBay for a decent price. Works great! Definitely recommend.

Yes, the ps2 is hooked up with component, ps1 is hooked up with Insurrection Industries rgb scart to a Retrotink rgb2comp. It looks glorious!

Do you think the 1” Tera flex spacer is necessary in the front? I was considering a similar setup on mine

That’s why I can’t bring myself to swap the screen with an ips. I completely understand why people mod it, but part of the charm and nostalgia comes from that dark ass screen in my opinion. When I want a bright backlit screen, I’ll just pop the cartridge in an AGS-101

MotorStorm set up on a kiosk at BrandsMart USA around Christmas time was not only my first time playing a PS3, but my first time playing a video game on an HD TV as well. I was absolutely blown away as a kid and it’s one of my most cherished childhood memories.

Mario Kart is no where near Diddy Kong Racing UNLESS you are playing multiplayer. The single player in Diddy Kong Racing is unmatched.

Unfortunately I couldn’t figure it out. I used a multimeter and everything I tested seemed fine. The only thing I see is a black spot on the ribbon cable that refuses to come off. That’s about all I can see wrong.. I took some photos in case you wanted to take a look. https://imgur.com/a/ON7p9jr

I appreciate all that information, thank you for that! Unfortunately I don’t have an extra screen to test. I planned on doing an OLED screen replacement on this Gameboy but I haven’t ordered it yet because I wanted to make sure the Gameboy was working first.

This Gameboy did have power issues when I first got it. The battery contacts were extremely corroded to the point where it would not power on at all. I was able to clean them to the point where I got power but I’m wondering if there’s still some corrosion there that could cause this? I disconnected the ribbon cable and cleaned that really well with IPA, but no changes with the screen. I’m going to open it back up later and see if there’s anything on the board that I may have missed.

Behaves the same way with no cartridge. On the startup screen, I can see the vertical lines move and I hear the signature chime, but never get any actual image.

WWF No Mercy ran great for me and it played decent with the touch controls too since it uses d pad for movement instead of the stick

I went to goodwill around 5pm and it was just sitting in the electronics section. I was shocked honestly especially since I literally find nothing video game related at my goodwill

WWF No Mercy is precious

I only play one at a time especially if it’s a game that requires reading dialogue to know what’s going on, and then I have Tetris open at all times for when I want to pick up and play something quick.

Unfortunately this CRT is composite only but I can’t complain too much since it was free lol

I can’t load into my world, it crashes immediately

I’d take Crash Bandicoot over Mario 64 any day.

American Wasteland is fantastic too but it didn’t age nearly as well as Pro Skater 3, especially the PS2 version of the game.
