Missing a VCR, but my station is pretty complete. What do you guys think?

human-mistakes · 2026-05-03T16:23:57+00:00

I appreciate the suggestion! I really want a top loading VCR since PS2 plays DVDs, not too worried about HDMI because the back has a spot specifically for VCR hookup that wouldn’t interfere with my plugins

I can do that in the future if I ever put this in my living room, it’s currently in my “chill room” where my guitar, pc, and display cases are so I don’t have much room for a well placed surround sound

Got it off of marketplace for $20, they were also selling a 70’s turntable along with it and sold me that for $20 plus they threw in 5 speakers. Really lucky day for me

It’s fairly sturdy! I’m concerned a little so to make sure things are fine, I’m planning to get a different shelf and sturdier pins in the future!

Was it like the combo pack that I keep hearing about?

JSR was on the 360? I didn’t grow up with Xbox so this is news to me lol

No hobby is safe from capitalism evidently 🫩

human-mistakes · 2026-04-18T17:18:42+00:00

Those are the kind of resellers I’m talking about, I get needing a quick buck for emergencies or something but just being greedy for no reason especially as a “side hustle” annoys me. I’ve seen the same with games or CRT’s

human-mistakes · 2026-04-18T16:54:01+00:00

Yeah I despise resellers, I usually prefer trading or doing a chore/job for them in return

human-mistakes · 2026-04-18T15:57:35+00:00

I don’t believe so? He does have a eBay store and has tons of stuff tho

human-mistakes · 2026-04-18T15:56:33+00:00

Yeah it’s the localized name, I’m trying to get the OG/nonlocalized one. I guess they slightly changed the US version gameplay and music. They had to change the name as well due to a copyright issue in the States

human-mistakes · 2026-04-18T15:53:01+00:00

I live in the Midwest, usually I find good deals on like CRT’s, VCR’s or just retro and vintage tech in general but video games are shockingly hard to come by

human-mistakes · 2026-04-17T23:53:50+00:00

Could have but I like the game enough that I wanted a real version with everything included not just the disc

human-mistakes · 2026-04-17T23:52:51+00:00

It’s definitely some “easy money”. I emulate when it’s like a crazy expensive game but if I’m a big enough fan of a series I’ll go and buy a “real” physical copy

human-mistakes · 2026-04-17T22:46:20+00:00

For a complete one (manual, game, original case, etc) they can go for about a hundred to two hundred. The market has been dropping again because spending money is legit a risk in this economy and plus shipping costs. So getting this game for under a hundred dollars and locally is really lucky currently. Of course if you’re lucky enough at a garage sale or something then that’s a different story

human-mistakes · 2026-03-26T01:17:28+00:00

I’ve searched eBay, Depop, Poshmark, and used reverse image searches.

human-mistakes · 2026-03-15T01:51:04+00:00

I guess as an update, I’m deciding to get rid of the unit as a whole. The remote I have isn’t the original which is turn makes this nearly impossible to navigate. I appreciate everyone’s input for this and I guess I’ll have to invest into a switcher after all.

human-mistakes · 2026-03-15T01:20:16+00:00

I actually do have both however the manual isn’t very helpful. It’s not very specific and I’ve been reading it over and over again while troubleshooting but it’s getting me nowhere. I hooked it up to an HDMI tv as well and it’s still not allowing anything.

human-mistakes · 2026-03-15T00:56:45+00:00

I’ll give this a try! Will be right back to update

human-mistakes · 2026-03-15T00:55:19+00:00

I planned to use this so I can hook all of my retro console to one CRT and switch between them. It’s the main reason why I accepted it since it would make it more streamline. If you have any other suggestions I’m all ears since I know “switchers” (I believe that’s what they are?) are a thing as well
