    OLED Switch “A” CMD Resistor - Half Damaged Pad

    Yeah, I was able to confirm this by finally getting a chance to boot the console today. I got the pink/purple screen, so that’s the resistor gone for the A point. I‘ve ordered some of the right size, 0201 4.7k, and I’ll give it a go this weekend if I find time. I’ve got an old DS I’ll try and...

    OLED Switch “A” CMD Resistor - Half Damaged Pad

    Okay, thanks for the info! I’ll give a shot and report back! 1689131082 I didn't get a chance to test re-assemble the console yet, but I was able to attempt to add solder to the pad. I had a fresh narrow tip, iron around 375C, and used a healthy amount of flux. I couldn't get anything to bond to...

    OLED Switch “A” CMD Resistor - Half Damaged Pad

    Sorry, I had the photo flipped the wrong way around; I edited my post to reflect the correct orientation. When I tried to add more solder to the pad, I couldn’t get any solder to adhere. I’m using Amtech tacky flux and Kester leaded solder, and I tried a wider tip to get a little more heat...

    OLED Switch “A” CMD Resistor - Half Damaged Pad

    Hello, When working on modding an OLED Switch, I ended up lifting part of the pad my wire was attached to (I'm using 30 gauge wire as part of an INSTINCT V6 install). I've attached a photo of the top of the resistor I soldered for the A/CMD point. I think I was using too much heat and tugged on...

    Software Atmosphère 0.17.0 released; Fusée now supports Mariko units

    Yikes. I saw one for 150 USD (190 CAD) and thought that was too much. Still considered for a few minutes, lol.

    Nintendo announces limited edition Mario Red & Blue Switch

    The red colour is really neat tbh. I kind of wish it was all red though instead of red/blue.

    [RUMOR] SciresM speculates on Switch Pro details through datamine information

    A more powerful dock is an interesting idea. I wonder if they would make the docking system backwards compatible. USB-C on the switch does offer the ability for a lot of bandwidth, I do wonder if they are going to fit a gen 3.2 port to it, and that might lock out the older switches. Perhaps the...

    Software Atmosphère 0.17.0 released; Fusée now supports Mariko units

    This is really impressive work by atmosphere. it makes me all the more annoyed my mod chip got lost in the mail. Well maybe by the end of the year there might be a open source replacement, or the chinese factories might be able to produce more grey market chips.

    Editorial Going back to basics: leaving PC gaming for consoles

    The simplicity of the consoles is really nice. I think though the reason I just keep buying them is I love the titles are are exclusive to them. It's kind of annoying though there's no premium experience of the Switch for example (the build quality is okay, it would be nice if there were tighter...

    Where to buy SX core?

    If someone’s got a link I’d really like one please. I generally play offline anyway and I mainly wanted to use the switch for emulators and so on. Thanks in advance I really appreciate it.
