Finally hit 800 subscribers on YouTube! Thank you all so much! I have a video idea lined up, but hopefully I can get filming and editing done before Sunday. We shall see!

With Discord most likely going up in flames, I decided to give Fluxer a try. Looks to be a straight clone of it, and their is no mobile app (yet). But I think I can get by with browser for now.

Does anyone within the USA happen to have a SNES Model 2 (Junior) in terrible shape that they're willing to sell? I am trying to find one in absolutely terrible shape, that won't cost me the price of a good one. Even if it's board only, I would be interested if it at least works.

The weekend haul. Wasn't looking for consoles, just accessories. And I got that and more!

Please Help 🧵

Welp, guess I need to start implementing this fix on all those Super Famicoms I got. Thanks @theretrochannel.bsky.social ! youtu.be/NgK2uuRKtTI?...

Videos might be delayed again, i'm not really feeling like myself right now and I wouldn't want that to be reflected during filming. I'm sorry.

Back from hiatus, to kick off the first video of the new year with a mega video! I unboxed and tested 25 Super Famicoms I got from @zemarket-en.bsky.social youtu.be/Y9LSkwTBQxU?...

Out with my sisters, to watch Iron Lung. Hope it's worth the hype!

Feel free to widely share this curated easy to understand #Satellaview knowledge that I just posted on my blog. I didn't want to overscope it but I spent a lot of time explaining a curated list of games for those who have no idea what the Satellaview is. luigiblood.neocities.org/blog/2026-01...

My pickups today! Got quite a few goodies and a potential restore item for the channel (if I can get a replacement front panel without opening a reddit account) 👀

Time for Return to Silent Hill! Bit late, but also perfect given the weather lately.

It's a foggy day today, which means only one thing... They call to me....

Here is the graveyard pile, after working on all the broken Super Famicoms. Two of them had to be used as donors, but that means 23/25 Super Famicoms survived afterwards! Now what will I do with 23 Super Famicoms? Well, they will either become custom systems, sold as stock, or even quick fix SNESes

Opened up one of the "black screen" Super Famicoms and... Yeeeeah, this thing is gonna need some TLC 🙃

Just another day in the bench, today. Pulling PPU1s from all my junk boards, in preparation for more console repairs. Hopefully I can straighten things up afterwards...😅

So this came to my attention, and if anyone is curious if I plan on covering or installing this mod, the answer is a big fat NO. Felix not only used ChatGPT during the development of this mod, but also used GenAI to make the music for his video about the mod. So he can go fuck himself.

Friends, come join me! Pick your poison! youtube.com/voultar twitch.tv/voultar

So I got a bit of a dilemma. I finished filming the unboxing of the Super Famicom lot, in which I tested every last one of them. However, I don't plan on releasing the video until February, since I am still on hiatus. But I want to do posts of me fixing them now, which could spoil testing results

Nice little lot from @zemarket-en.bsky.social, to kick the year off! 25 junk Super Famicoms for me to tinker with. Maybe I might do a video of me testing them all? Hmmm....👀

On a bittersweet day (my late mom's bday and the anniversary of that little insurrection), I received something very nice: a beautiful, custom Super Famicom from @fenriswolfretro.bsky.social, to replace my failing SNES.

As 2025 comes to an end, and 2026 approaches, I wanted to spend some time reflecting on everything that has transpired throughout this year for me. 🧵

Happy New Years, from the Tech Cave! Just as a quick update, I will not be posting any videos on January (and possibly February), because I will be spending the time catching up on personal projects as well as some send-ins. But don't worry, I got some stuff planned for sure!

Alright, last video of 2025! I got my hands on this system that's been advertised on Instagram. Is it any good? Well... youtu.be/reW43L3uytU?...

If any of y'all are curious where I'm gonna be in June, this is where! I won't be a guest for the event, just regular attendance.

Merry Christmas from the Tech Cave! Hope you all have a good one, today.

Had a blast at Sac Gamers Expo 2025! Picked up some cool stuff as well as a ton of stickers and keychains from local artists, including @artofmazzy.bsky.social @eeveelatte.bsky.social @joeybluej.bsky.social @anighsrat.bsky.social

I AM GIVING AWAY AN N64! This is case and light modded. All you have to do is follow, leave a comment, and reskeet this post. You must live within the continental US. Comes with Expansion Pak, Power Cable, and A/V Cables. Quest 64 not included Winner will be randomly picked on the 22nd. #n64

Just out of curiosity, if you could do a sleeper PC build, what would you use as the case? Personally, I am obsessed with early 2000s PC cases. Like man, they really don't make them like they used to!

Made one more masterpiece of a SNES, for the year! It is fully equipped with an RGB LED, SNEdge, all necessary fixes, and I custom painted this console. The decal came from CraftventureTimes on Etsy, whom you can check out here: www.etsy.com/shop/Craftve...

The clear SFC will only be available until Friday. After that, it will no longer be available for sale. So if you are interested in having this one of a kind piece, strike while the iron is hot!

It's Christmas time folks, and Santa came early with a new project for the Tech cave! youtu.be/6wmiuE3He4w?...

This next video is going to be late. Life got really busy for me, and I hadn't been able to get to editing until right now. I am sorry for the upcoming delay.

Clear SFC is still available!

I am proud of this routing. I managed to fit two sram on the board... SGB build a boy is a go! evilhandrub

Clear SFC is still available!

Watching Five Nights at Freddy's 2, today. And already I am seeing some people come in wearing FNAF face paint and carrying Freddy dolls. This is going to be an interesting time, for sure.

If you haven't had a chance to check out the "Pixels to Pages: The Story of Electronic Gaming Monthly" documentary from @gamesack.net and MLiG, take a break from Metroid Prime 4 and give it a watch here! youtu.be/E010OPY1Tzw

Funds are lower than usual because of medical stuff and bills are coming up. If you’re able to spare a few dollars or sharing this I’d appreciate it. ko-fi.com/A35596H

Finally hit 700 subscribers on YouTube! Thank you all so much for getting me this far!!

So I'm yet again looking for (more) work. Ideally I'm looking for work as a community manager for a games developer or publisher. I'm also interested in doing game review work, which I currently do as a freelancer. I have no intention of stopping it, but would love additional work. Thank you 💜💜

paypal.me/manwithasword After applying to 150+ jobs this year alone, and barely even getting enough interviews to count on two hands, Ive finally run out of unemployment. I have no money coming it, so I have to ask for help from you all. If you cant donate, please consider sharing at least.
