Got my lipo battery in for my NDS. I'm probably going to re-solder the battery wires to the pcb I'm using because I used some really crappy solder, mainly because I didn't want to get my good solder in the garage. I mean it working and the battery is charging in the DS, I just don't like the way it looks and feels kind of loose.20210508_011616.jpg 20210508_010914.jpg

Who would have thought I would ever need one of these again:

Now, looking at this carefully:
What's with the kids on this label?! What do two boys playing outside have to do with CD-R?

==================

Got another PlayStation 2 Slim, SCPH-90004. Laser still strong: Reads CD-R and DVD-R like a charm and it is FreeMCBoot compatible. Last but not least: Original packaging and manual which is rarely the case on cheap offers.

Console is scratched up and both the main unit and the controller need a good cleaning. But I'm very happy with this one.

I also found myself buying CDs again after getting back at the Saturn.

I think the kids implying the usage of the CD to store family videos. But they can also be using failed burn discs as throwing discs xD. I used to do that when I was a kid, they are very aerodynamic and cut though the air.

Those kids were born in the year I last used a cd...

Ordered some more PCBs from oshpark. ordered 2 more lipo batteries(103040 lipos 1200mah), some battery jst 2 pin battery connectors and some Diodes(IN4007). Going to be making some removable gba lipo batteries.

They will probably have crappy battery life, but I'm doing this mainly for fun.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
