The kind of things you find in flea markets.
SAMSUNG monitor with Apple base.

The things you find in flea market part 2.

Dell "tower" that starts but shows no picture at all. And I have no USB keyboard to test if I can at least boot to bios.

Decided to take it apart, and found the dinstinctive molex without hard drive, so I guess that's why it's not working.

Then looked some more and found a 120GB SSD in the bottom held (or hidden) by a fuckton of ducktape.
It has 3 RAM sticks, one 2GB and 2 512MB. So I'm assuming this is a x86 machine. And that the SSD was just for storage since it doesn't boot to any OS.

I got a 500GB HDD in January, so I'm gonna try to find a cheap keyboard, and install Windows 7 into this.

About the SSD... finder's keepers!

PS: The price for both that monitor and this tower was less than 10USD but more than 9.

Finally got a working PSP Go Dock, so now I can watch old UMD movies without the battery dying an hour and a half in.

Some goodies for myself

Love that PSP sleeve. I still have the one that came with my PSP 1000 back on release, and it still looks great. Meanwhile the hardcase I got for it (Big Ben, I think?) fell apart a long time ago.

Damnnnnnn they sold out like, instantly on our storefront. Think it's slightly too expensive for my taste anyway, but definitely get some pictures posted when it turns up!

New set of self care

I ordered a Lattice ispDownload box for programming Lattice CPLDs while also setting up my Aladdin XBlast.

Modified the VCC rail to only output +3.3V instead of +5V by soldering a jumper to +3.3V on the voltage regulator.

Bought a physical copy of Jump Force for PS4 as it was delisted from the PSN Store, and yeah the game sucks, but I can get a Tenkaichi experience and I like it.

Got these stickers of my favorite pal

Got some video games today, because apparently most Wii games are dirt cheap even in basically pristine condition and with everything included.

Got a new vacuum cleaner, cost me just £27.50 from a supermarket and it's better than the £80+ Hoover we already had that was a pain to use.

Sometimes the cheap **** is better than the expensive stuff.

Why not get a GDEMU (clone or original)?

Got a little money for my birthday a few days ago so figured I'd finally grab Xenoblade 3 and complete my Disgaea Switch collection with Disgaea 7 (already bought it on Steam around release to review it but if I have the rest on Switch.....).

Already put the cases onto my shelf, so you'll just have to settle for cart pics. With those two, my 72 card case is also full now, so that's pretty cool.

I got this case too, mine is the galaxy print on the outside, and it's honestly the best game case I've ever owned.

There were times I bought, sold, and rebought again TP_Wii, but never actually played that port.

However, when Ninty released the HD Version (on the Wii U) I played it from start to finish and really enjoyed it.

Makes me wonder why tf they never ported WWHD and TPHD to the Switch those games are awesome! Man, the music of WWHD is legendary.

Maybe they're waiting for Switch 2 or GC games to come to NSO?

Completely forgot that I got this thing a couple days ago:

The Hunter controller from Retro Fighters for the original Xbox. 2.4g low latency plus USB adapter for PC, Switch, and a bunch of other consoles, hall effect sticks and triggers, pressure sensitive buttons, and regular shoulder buttons in addition to the white and black face buttons (mapped identically for OG Xbox).
Took forever to ship from the preorder last March but the thing feels really solid. No discernable latency, sticks feel great, d-pad is solid, triggers feel good.
Definitely worth considering over an old original controller, and definitely better than any original third-party options for the thing.

The Wii version was the first iteration if TP that I played, on my big sister's Wii where I pestered her at her apartment to play it.

And yeah, I'm also curious why they haven't released those games on the switch yet, but maybe it's either still in the cards or they want to wait until the next generation.

Blew my mind to see one that can store so many carts. Most of the ones with that capacity are the gross slide in fabric ones and they’re really just not the same. I want to see my carts damn it!
