Bung GB X-Changer/Mr.Flash - Part 1 (First Impressions & Dumping Carts) (Re-creation of the GB X-Changer logo) Introduction It's been a while since I last wrote a blog entry about what I've been up to, and I have kept this particular one on hold for a reason because it's very special to me as...
It's been confirmed that retrobrighting can do more harm than good even after bleaching what was yellowed for 10-years. I recently watched a video from Tech Tangents where he details his experience with retrobrighting a Dreamcast, and after leaving it, he came back to discover bleach streaks...

He told the genie that he wished to have his game physically, didn't like how it came, then chucked it to me to tear apart and laugh. Joking aside, I received a bootleg copy of "Aladdin" which wasn't original which came with my SFC console. At least, for one, it plays just fine, and hasn't fried...

The writer works with one issue, being that the F-Card wouldn't read properly. I presume it has to do with the contacts, but it'll work with the Nintendo DS. I tried cleaning the reader's pins and the cartridge-still nothing. The other carts I have that work (except for the DS Fire Cards) being...

In this new series of blog entries, this will be where in-case what I think doesn't need a full in-depth write-up that takes over two hours, then it'll go in my blurbs blog. Today, this is going to be about more Nintendo DS flashcarts as it's been a while since I've delved into this rabbit hole...

I've been reading on Reddit about there being supposedly "fake" Modbo 4.0 chips circulating in the wild. While most Modbo chips are indeed clones of the Matrix Infinity, and to this day, clones are still being mass produced on a daily basis in China. Yet, what if there was a fake-of-a-fake? It...

This is going to be a quick blog entry, nothing too long. But over the years, there have been many myths circulating when using official versions of AKAIO, in particular with 'clone' carts. One that appears to pop up is the full capacity to brick your cart if it detects it as a clone. This is...
