It has arrived.

It's a TMSS VA7 model 1, so I'll be modding it with a Mega Amp to fix the audio, and then hopefully getting a better way to hook it up to my TV. (Genesis Composite is really bad when upscaled by HDTVs) Probably a custom RGB SCART cable and an OSSC, although I am looking at other solutions.

Also, it needs to be cleaned. :P

Bought windshield wipers for my car and the van. Got to install them next weekend. I also got a 5 level brightness adapter for my 32pin gba. I'll be installing that tomorrow night.

Not me but my friends Facebook got hacked and someone tried to hack my other friends psn account. Thankfully he had enabled 2 step verification on psn.

Also my glass screen lens for my green Gameboy came yesterday. So now I'm going to take it apart, clean it and possibly back light it and maybe do a pro sound mod to it

Took apart my green dmg Gameboy, cleaned it and put the glass lens on it. I have bought clear green buttons for a sound reactive leds in the buttons and also bought 20 0.1mm prewired leds. Also bought a heat mat for a 10 gallon terrarium for when I get my snake.

Probably a sand boa, hog nose or corn snake. If I get the corn then I need to get a bigger tank and heat pad.

Also the pcbs of the Gameboy were extremely clean and shiny like it was brand new. I've never seen a Gameboy with such a clean boards.
