🚨 PSBBN Update: Thanks to KyleSanderson, the game installer can now automatically create VMCs for all your PS2 games! - Compatible with Neutrino and OPL - Supports group VMCs - No extra setup needed github.com/CosmicScale/... #PSBBN #PS2 #PlayStation #Homebrew

Fun fact: The "Internet Channel" icon was made by Sony but unused. Other unused icons like "Utility Channel" and "Other PC" hint they might’ve planned a full Linux desktop inside PSBBN. #PSBBN #PS2 #PlayStation #retrogaming

So my project of late; has been setting up PlayStation Broadband Navigator! It was Sony's vision (c. 2002) for what the future of the PlayStation 2 could be like, but it sadly only ever launched in Japan. Thanks to @cosmicscale.bsky.social it's now translated to English, and it's great on my PS2! ✨

Early 2002, Sony held an event for shareholders detailing their plans for PSBBN. It had a different look and included features that never came to fruition: - Streaming movies with RealPlayer - Instant messaging, voice calls & video mail - Recording TV #psbbn #ps2 #retrogaming

Are there any PSBBN Definitive Project users here who are fluent in Japanese? I could use a hand translating a few small paragraphs of the PSBBN User Guide so they match up with the English version. If you’re up for it, please drop a reply. #PSBBN #PS2

🚨 PSBBN Definitive Patch Update. Today. 5 PM GMT.

Introducing the HDD-OSD Icon Generator! Easily create your own HDD-OSD icons by manually supplying the required images. Create icons for all your games that don’t have one yet, then please submit those icons to the HDD-OSD Icon Database #PS2 #PSBBN #HOSDMenu github.com/CosmicScale/...

Does anyone have a PSX DESR with a dead HDD and want to try installing the PSBBN Definitive Patch? In theory it should work if you boot the console from a memory card with FreeMCBoot or PS2BBL and launch __system/p2lboot/osdboot.elf from there #ps2 #psx github.com/CosmicScale/...

The RePS2 for PlayStation 2 had also recently been updated. It now has connectors for a 5V or 12V fan. Great for fitting a Noctua fan without undervolting #ps2 rexusnexus.com/product/reps2/

Just a heads up, the RePS2 is now also available for the PSX DESR. I've ordered one. Waiting for it to arrive before I plug it in. Didn't want to use an inefficient step-down transformer and it's always a good idea to replace those ageing power supplies. rexusnexus.com/product/reps...

Got myself a little present #ps2 #psx

Working on a new #PSBBN Definitive Patch feature... It's far more work than I anticipated.

Finally reached the level of success on YouTube where I start getting offered fake brand deals.

I’ve been fixing numerous bugs in #PSBBN DP v4 today. If you're updating within the first couple of weeks of release, consider yourself beta testers! The latest stable version is v3, available here: github.com/CosmicScale/...

🚨 PSBBN Update: Definitive Patch v4 is here! • New MBR app: OSDMenu MBR • Significantly faster loading • Support for 3rd-party HDD adapters with HOSDMenu • Improved partitioning and more! youtu.be/fT368C90Trc

🚨 PSBBN Definitive Patch Update. Tomorrow 5 PM GMT.

Big #PSBBN Definitive Patch update is in the works. Hoping to get it done and a new video out by the end of the month 🤞

PSBBN Update: Help needed! If anyone has experience working with old Linux kernels and wants to help fix a strange FAT32 file read bug, it’d be hugely appreciated! More details here: ko-fi.com/post/Help-ne...

. @archive.org has been available intermittently in the UK since the introduction of the Online Safety Act. I have a feeling they’re purposely limiting UK traffic to avoid being classified as Category 1 - average user base of 7 million or more per month.

#PSBBN Mini Update 4: New Art Downloader The Art Downloader has been converted from JavaScript to Python, eliminating Puppeteer and Chromium dependencies that caused issues for some users. Artwork now downloads faster! github.com/CosmicScale/...

#PSBBN Mini Update 3: Launcher for Windows updated to v1.1.0! Includes bug fixes affecting a minority of users. Redownload from the “Installing on Windows” section of the readme. Special thanks to Yornn! github.com/CosmicScale/...

#PSBBN Mini Update 2: Music Installer Multi-disc album support ✅ Unsupported characters cleaned ✅ Album Artist used for albums, Artist for tracks ✅ Skipped files now clearly grouped✅ github.com/CosmicScale/...

In other news, it looks like the Internet Archive is blocked in the UK. From the link below, I’m clearly not the only one. The site still works fine if you use a VPN. If you're in the UK and want to install the PSBBN Definitive Patch, you'll need a VPN. downforeveryoneorjustme.com/internet-arc...

#PSBBN Mini Update 1: Some users were getting confused when partitioning the drive. The installer now shows the OPL partition size, makes it clear you’re only partitioning the remaining space, and creates the POPS partition first.

Due to personal reasons, I’ll have less time to dedicate to the #PSBBN Definitive Patch over the next month. That said, I’ll still be releasing smaller updates as they’re ready, rather than waiting for one big monthly update. Thanks for your patience and support!

If any YouTubers are interested in covering the #PSBBN Definitive Patch, feel free to reach out, I’m happy to chat. I can also provide an info sheet with background on the project.
