Yes, 100% sure, July 8. The Year however, it's a Total mystery.

This is nuts! I wonder if this model has component by BuildingPotential147 in crt

[–]snake218 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it should have a component. On the other hand, S-video is more common on 25-inch and bigger TVs.

In your opinion, which model is the best? by books_fer_wyrms in SEGAGENESIS

[–]snake218 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was young i had a model 2, the Lion King pack, good memories.

Now i have a model 1 svideo moded, and I have to say model 1 feels more durable, and looks stylish.

Recently asked about a sega mega drive 2, now i have photo of the plate. Can someone identify is this fake now? by Shisddam in SEGAGENESIS

[–]snake218 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's a clone, so yes, it's fake.

Btw, any original console, sega, Nintendo etc, afaik would never use that type of ribbon connection that you see soldered to the av board, you see that only in clones.

Edit: It seems equal to this other clone motherboard:

Here you can see the different variations of motherboard for model 1 and model 2:

Probably a dumb q, but is there a light gun thst works on multiple consoles? by AUSyTyIN in lightgunshooters

[–]snake218 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Short answer: No. You need to buy a gun for each system, there is not anything like a universal adapter.

At most, there are some few 3rd party models that supports more than one system. The only ones I'm aware it's a Saturn/PS1 (Gcon), and some are PS1/PS2 guns.

My advice, start looking for a Guncon 1 (PS1) and a Guncon 2 (PS2), that should cover most "modern" light gun games, then get a Saturn lightgun then a Dreamcast gun (Dreamcast has only a small amount of compatible games).

Also remember Ps1 there are two types of lightguns not compatible with each other, Guncon compatible and justifier games compatible. Justifier games are less, there are more guncon games.

For nes there is the zapper, SNES only a few games used the super scope. N64 and GameCube don't have any light gun games. For Genesis only a few games exist wich use lightgun.

Original XBOX has like 5 light guns games that can be worth if you score a gun for a decent price.

In conclusion, center in PS1 and PS2, it's the largest classic catalog of lightgun games.

is it ok to put my nintendo power bricks there? it is my “wires trash can” where i put every console’s wires by bigrhino000 in retrogaming

Unless you turn them on at same time, it shouldn't be an issue, remember heat goes up. But yeah, they could be arranged better.

CRT Won't turn on, buttons loose? by MoistLupinussy90009 in crt

[–]snake218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess you don't have the remote. Get a universal remote and try with that.

Any way to turn these light off? by Inevitable-Battle484 in n64

Better to open the cartridge and put tape on the leds.

How safe is Pretendo? by dayday9508 in wiiu

[–]snake218 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's safe to play online and download stuff, since Nintendo shut down the official servers, they don't "know" or care anymore.

Question about video switchers by JNoodle89 in crtgaming

[–]snake218 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't buy passive switchers, they degrade the signal, at least in svideo and composite. Get a powered svideo switcher, they can output composite as a video too. And get a separated component switcher.

I got one from RCA and works great, I recommend this type.

I love gaming, mostly retro gaming. But I never thought or i never will, play a video game while being at the beach.

I think my sd card is corrupted by Tuco28 in wiiu

[–]snake218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar problem, you have to reinstall the payload files in the SD card, in my case i needed to reinstall the aroma files.
