PicoLoader back in stock after a new shipment of flex cables 👍 topvint.co.uk/product/game...

Today I put a PicoLoader in my Cube via @topvint.co.uk amazing new no solder kit.

Bought this off Facebook & I noticed the fan & other side was dirty & also the controller/memory card panel was really discoloured so I sent it to @topvint.co.uk to get cleaned & they totally transformed it Brilliant customer service & brilliant job 🖤 Thank You 🤍

The installation instruction of the PicoLoader advice you to solder the Raspberry Pi and diode once the flex is in place in the Cube. While this is a relatively easy solder, you can indeed install a PicoLoader with a pre-soldered Raspberry Pi and diode, already screwed into the 3D-printed bracket 😁

I refurbished (yet another) #OGxbox , but this time with a bit of a twist. It has an interesting modchip and software in it which I want to preserve. Want to see how I made sure is in great condition but keeping the original character? check below 👇

Build the second best vga dongle from the sensation Jeff Chen dongle series. The Dreamcast one that can do up to 480p for games that support that and have a bunch of different sync options to connect on different devices. Pretty neat 😎

Thank you @topvint.co.uk for your amazing work on my OG model PS3! After some drama trying to get it halfway around the world, it finally came home in one piece looking incredible. He did some minor upgrades to the thermals so hopefully it will never have it experience the yellow light of death.

Good morning 💦 (What's not to like about a wet PS2?)

Just to circle back on this, adding 15uf capacitors between the RGB lines and ground fixed all the noise. Below are a couple of screenshots of the difference between stock and with the SNEdge. I don't have the right equipment to capture this properly, and this is from an LCD TV. What do you think?

Had my #ps1 upgraded to 8MB RAM by @topvint.co.uk as part of his free modding programme 🙂. Top guy, really good work and he now offers this as a mail in service (you provide the ram). topvint.co.uk/product/ps1-...

Did you know you can upgrade your #PS1 RAM from 2MB to 8MB? I didn't know either but @danhans42.bsky.social approached me through my Free Modding Programme and I now have learned how to do it. Do you want to learn too? See below 👇

How do you make Mayumi v4 modchips for your #PS1? Is a simple yet somewhat involved process that requires PCB manufacturing, ordering a couple of components, programming a chip, soldering and finally installing in a Playstation 1 console. Want to know how I do it? Check below👇

I refurbished this rusty #PS2, installed a modchip and added an EasyHDD from @jeffchen.bsky.social with a 500GB HDD. Now you can play import disc games using the modchip and also games from the HDD using OPL. Want to see what I did? As usual, check below 👇

1/6 I finally decided to stop procrastinating and get on with assembling some @loopj.com WavePhoenix receivers. This thread will show you my journey. I started by tinning the pads on 6 PCBs and the 6 EFR32 MCUs I had. 🧵👇 #RETROGAMING #Nintendo #GameCube #WaveBird #WavePhoenix

I have been thinking about it and I'm willing to offer you free modding services if you are willing to trust me with mods I have never done. Maybe this will bring nothing but I think is worth a try. Check out the link if you want to learn more. topvint.co.uk/free-modding...

Order #3672 I installed an Modbo 5.0 into this lovely Japanese ceramic white #PS2 slim. I also gave it the TLC treatment. Check below for more details! 👇

Inspired by @pointerfunction.bsky.social I decided to make myself a few SNEdge boards. Great Github documentation. I installed in a Japanese SHVC-CPU-01, and I got mixed results. I did a full bypass. The edges do get sharper, but there is also a lot of new noise. I did add the 10uf caps...

I'm going to go for another FatScreen build but this time, it'll be using a 10.4 inch screen. The lens I'll need to build will only just fit in the lathe and it'll need to be spot on centered. I've got a spinning arbour and used a 3d printed guide to stick them together with thermal tape. 🙂

Either somebody has a LOT of Famicoms or I'm being hacked 🤔
