It’s just a voltage divider circuit and a transistor behind a diode. Thats the entire low-power circuit in the VirtualBoy controller.

Took apart and fixed a VirtualBoy today! Pretty fun little thing - you can see in the pics the way the reflective bit wiggles rapidly to give the image. Standard eye piece not working issue - requires soldering the ribbon cable itself back in. Which fixed it! :D

Does anyone out there understand their audio circuits?

The OG Red vs Blue

Check it out…. It’s Skyrim, in Morrowind.

Built these at work today. (One chip left off to program before final soldering)

Do you see this kitty? This here is my baby kitty. She very baby. Look at her stare. She is memorizing! (Really she just wants to play fetch the blue bottle cap)

No matter what I do I can’t get around it. Insignia, why do you do this to me?

“BUT MOM, IT’S THIRTY TWO BITS!!!”

Make sure to tell your mother today "Happy Mother's Day!" - for those of you who still are able to and still on talking terms that is. I am going to be doing chores today for my mom - taking out trash, moving things around, changing filters. I'm grateful I have a mom to do it for, still.

The geese that come to our little run-off lake had their babies and they’re super cute!

What is it? Could it be? You’ll never find out! Unless you know! Then you know! If that edge connector doesn’t give it away I don’t know what will! Hint: 🦆

HoskBrew is going to start posting capacitor kits for all the game systems and I helped make it possible! Me and my WALL OF #CAPACITORS!! ADMIRE MY WALL! :3 I recently got even more values to put in there, too! We have so many capacitors for cap kits it’s ridiculous. I’ve been in cap kit heaven!

WAAAAAT?! No way! That's AWESOME!!!

Mario's Modules 2 has finally been released. Much time and effort have been poured into this project, and I couldn't be happier to share it with all of you. Have fun! 😁

Miyu & Fay made their #Starfox debut in the semi-cancelled #SNES game "Starfox 2" But who says history can't be rewritten? @sunlitspace542.bsky.social has gone to tremendous lengths to retroactively add them into the original Starfox game! romhackplaza.org/romhacks/miy... #retrogaming #romhacking

The funniest part of this is Scott Kelly just blurting out like "well, Capitalism is good actually" www.vice.com/en/article/a...

I believe in a better world, too.

Sneaky peak of the absolute beast of a 386 I'm going to be building, many many thanks to uhf_satcom (x.com) for the motherboard and CPU and other bits! 🙏🙏🙏 I've managed to get it running on 16MB of RAM, but I've ordered 16 more, can't even imagine a 386 with 32MB of RAM, but soon.... 😍

Mia Baby is officially 1 years old! She just got her yearly vet appointment and she came back in great health! She had bloodwork done to check for diseases and she tested NEGATIVE on everything! What a baby! She meowed the whole way there but didn’t say a peep the entire way back, lol.

Now that’s good! :3 youtube.com/shorts/3WFWX...

But what if… she loves me? :3

Retro gaming good for your health? Yup! youtu.be/d4QuYuPn2Mc

As soon as I get home she is on her mommies lap! She’s soooo baby! :3

After putting this OG XBox on the back burner due to how upsetting it was to remove the fake RAM, I’m back at it today. Ready to install some AUTHENTIC RAM into these open footprints.

Hey #Atari #A2600 fans, are these the variants of the Parker Brothers cartridges that you know of? Trying to identify them and I’ve heard there’s 8 but we have only found 6 variants. :/

Wow! After all these years…

My first time looking into a broken pinball machine. Middle Earth from Atari (not mine, my bosses).

Hey #NES #gamedevelopers out there! Here’s a kickstarter my company is doing for their new NES board they want to make: www.kickstarter.com/projects/701... You should check it out! We want to make a bunch of them! It does a lot of really cool stuff already and is only getting better!

Did you know that molds to make these replacement console shells can run upwards of 100k$? Insane levels of money. Really nice looking replacement shells tho! Glad I didn’t have to pay for the molds, that’s for sure.

On behalf of sane Americans, I offer my sincerest and deepest apologies to the people of Iran. Please stay safe. Those responsible will one day face justice.

Another switch modded! Another liberated from the evil clutches of DRM. Another free to use, play, and entertain as desired. No locks. No masters. No restrictions. Do what you want cause a pirate is FREE!

YOU REALLY, REALLY, REALLY DO NOT NEED THIS! MegaMan X2/X3 Japanese -> US English converted cartridges in custom bomber blue shells. These use my 3D printed adapters to allow these extended edge connector carts fit into regular SNES cartridges. Tested and ready to go! Links below.

No no no, you don't need it!!! Featuring Final Fantasy 5r Clean physical SNES cartridge in its very own translucent smoky black shell. Take a look at that PCB. See that EEPROM and adapter? You're welcome. :3 I have two of these up for sale now on eBay, links below.

Ones I’ll be doing to finish things off.

YOU CAN COLLECT AND ARM THEM? Good lord! This game.

What ya mean I can’t eat the chemical solder paste!?!? Don’t tell me what to do! I’m an adult! :3

Happy Happy, Happy Cat! This is the face of a kitty who loves her mommies lap! It’s the most comfortable and safest spot in the whole wide kitty world! :) I love my baby Mia sooooo much! She comes and runs up to me when I get home - you know she loves me. :3
