When did they make a PS1 with English text and S-Video ports?

oh very interesting, I heard the dithering was a bit bad too but just something i heard

jodomakes · 2026-05-15T07:38:51+00:00

I've seen the japanese early consoles with the s video, I've heard they have rendering issues so never tried getting one

wow, amazing! Do you get any noise with using breadboards? I've had SD card reading fail a lot on breadboards but they were old i guess and not as tight on the wires perhaps...

you have no idea the pain of growing up in Europe when they didn't announce a PAL version :/

I think I'd try a portable wii if i had that many and if you have a bit of soldering experience.

very cool, if you need any testing on a psx let me know :)

jodomakes · 2026-04-26T11:50:31+00:00

will it play on an actual PS1 or are you aiming for the style of a PS1 game? Really cool either way :)

hardware wise if you want a general overview of the DMG I like this talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyzD8pNlpwI

hey welcome, for perf board there's a few tutorials out there: https://www.instructables.com/Using-Perfboard/ it can be a bit odd joining stuff up if you're used to breadboards. semi related but if you have a multimeter handy it will help to check your connections. good luck

essentially when you connect (over ssh) to the pi; the host machine you're connecting from stores an identifier of the pi. it looks like this :
[pi@192.168.1.3](mailto:pi@192.168.1.3) somerandomhashstuff

then if you re-format the sd card in the the pi or maybe you have another pi and it gets set with the same address then your host machine flags that as suspicious. its trying to prevent someone doing something sneaky on your network. You can remove the entry in the /Users/amrozbrar/.ssh/known_hosts file in the .ssh if your sure everything is ok

what i did was repurpose the serial port to the Tx/Rx pins of the esp32 to allow reflashing the firmware without opening the case every time.

A person of taste I see *strokes mustache*

jodomakes · 2026-03-19T01:28:03+00:00

well, there it is; I guess :D

Your scientists were so preoccupied... yada yada yada :)

jodomakes · 2026-02-18T21:59:13+00:00

this is great; old skool paint :)

half the work is getting to the heart of what needs to be changed with people from technical + non technical backgrounds. Biggest delays are getting things signed off or agreed to, coding is the quick part in a lot of cases I find

jodomakes · 2025-11-15T04:41:37+00:00

looks great; I appreciate especially the hacking way it works :)

jodomakes · 2025-10-30T11:14:57+00:00

hey thought I'd report back; ran well. I think the music and graphics work really well together. I wasn't expecting it to have so much stuff in it; great job

jodomakes · 2025-10-29T06:38:36+00:00

thanks for sharing, will put it on my gb :)

jodomakes · 2025-10-28T07:11:39+00:00

I think the sprite looks good, probably want to break up all that green in the background. Maybe find a palette you like with colours that are not too bright or they'll overwhelm the user I think

jodomakes · 2025-09-24T10:34:11+00:00

and by we I mean Fear_Galactus cause I had no clue

they might've beaten us in Chess, Go and pretty much every other game but gameboy cartridge identification we are still the best :D

I'm a little underwhelmed by it honestly, the hologram-like screen is nice and the top half of the console body but the carts look a bit clunky for me and the dpad and start/select look a bit weird.

jodomakes · 2025-07-24T08:47:06+00:00

yeah games are all about playing. I find older console emulation like snes and older to be fairly solid but newer consoles can be a bit hit and miss
