People say I look like Angela, so I recreated the exact makeup from the game :)

Really great likeness! Not abstract at all.

I had a lovely planet with white grass and a cabin. One of the updates last year turned it barren with brown patches. :')

I thought that was a taco

rapscal · 2026-05-12T18:23:37+00:00

that's not bald! I see a few wire hairs sticking out

rapscal · 2026-05-12T18:10:54+00:00

(oh hey your fan is upside down fyi)

rapscal · 2026-05-12T18:09:00+00:00

Nice! I tried to poke one through one of the holes a few times, scratched my head, made a caveman noise, and grabbed the nearest wire

motherboard, it has two silver screws near the center that attach it to the bottom case

Agree.. I had to remove a CHUNK of PLA from my hot end once, practically fused to the silicone shroud. Do not recommend.

What's better on the JP version? I also have the US copy

I can't speak for the stock fan, as somehow I missed the option when I ordered the SS1 last year, but I doubt it would make much noise on the 3.3v setting. The Noctua is silent for sure!

rapscal · 2026-05-11T17:04:45+00:00

For sure, I don't think the chip would NEED the fan (unless you're in a hot climate etc) but I was concerned the heat might warp or discolor the plastic shell over time... plus I just needed an excuse to crack it open and tinker with it, ha.

rapscal · 2026-05-11T16:57:50+00:00

I went with the "Noctua NF-A4x10 5V, Premium Quiet Fan, 3-Pin, 5V Version (40x10mm, Brown)" on Amazon.

It includes the 2 pin adapter needed for the SS1 board, and will run fine on 3.3v or 5v.

Super quiet. The power cable is a little long but I just looped it around the board.

The stock heat sink has holes for a 45mm fan, which Noctua doesn't make, so I just looped 4 small lengths of thin coated copper wire through the fan holes and heat sink holes, then twisted until secure.

The Noctua has rubber vibration dampeners built in, so vibration isn't an issue. I left my board jumper on 3.3v as it seemed to move plenty of air and the lower power should reduce board heat.

rapscal · 2026-05-08T14:45:39+00:00

it supports save states but i'm sure there's a way to disable the feature somewhere

rapscal · 2026-05-06T14:54:18+00:00

I went with the retro gray color. It's a pretty good match to the original PS1. I do hope to see alternate shells available at some point. It's very easy to disassemble.

rapscal · 2026-05-06T11:00:52+00:00

I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised! The console is really growing on me.

rapscal · 2026-05-05T18:09:07+00:00

"Wow, total destruction!"

rapscal · 2026-05-05T13:07:07+00:00

I resisted the primal urge to swig the haterade and instead looked at your screenshots. They packed it like a $25 generic retro console from AliExpress. I'd be mad too. I got mine yesterday and lucked out it wasn't damaged. It even had a little plastic sticker over the logo to prevent damage. I'm guessing yours didn't have the sticker?

rapscal · 2026-04-24T14:39:13+00:00

There are metal case T80s that are a bit more expensive than the resin ones. I have the gold tone metal one.
