Dual mono, true stereo, RGB, Component, S-Video you know simple shit like that OP

I want to 47k Resistor mod mine, but I feel like I'd fuck up.

>>367401
What does that do?

>>367406
Allows for special Famicom sound and disc system sound.

Extreme mode: Could put in a CopyNES. That's a bit crazy though. Not really as useful anymore with the proliferation of emulators and rom collections.

>>367415
that sounds pretty neat

I had no idea you could mod it to hook up to the disk system

>>367427
A mod chip right?

>>367463
That's pretty sick

There instructions how to install it?

>>367449
The hardest part is getting the actual PPU for a reasonable price but the rest is a cakewalk if you know what you're doing.

>>367492
Most of us don't know what we're doing

>>367492

But the colors man, the colors!!

Isn't some guy working on a complete PPU replacement without the palette issues?

>>367532
What is a PPU?

it's going pretty well for the guy. Too bad he doesn't have a proper recorder

>>367568
>not having more than 1

You must be new here.

>>367568
Yes and there are over 50 million of them in existence

You're like somebody from /k/ who gets pissed off when someone fudds up a Mosin Nagant

>>367532
Elaborate. I know that the regular RGB mod basically slaps on the PC10 PPU onto the NES, which results in ridiculously bright and inaccurate colors. Is there a mod that would clean up the image while still retaining the NTSC colors?

This seems like a good place to talk about this.

>>367626
Holy shit, how much money, how much money man

>>367626
I still want to do this.

>>367626
>haha dumbass forgot to push the game d-

Since we're talking hardware, does anyone know how to fix the tray not locking?

>>367693
Loosen the screws, assuming you've opened it up.

>>367679
Got news for ya. I replace my NES pins and don't even have to push the game down into the lower level of the console to play.

Just push it in horizontally and power on. (sounds like my last date)

>>367623

I know of a few mods that decrease the brightness (not terribly difficult), but I'm not sure how much you can actually do about the color.

>>367701
Yeah, but then when I put the top back on it doesn't lock down again. Is there a 'correct' way of doing it?

>>367714
I'm not quite sure your problem. Loosening the screws with anything related to the tray fixed my problem, so sorry.

>>367702
I know, I was just posting my reaction as I was watching the gif

>>367702
same here but its all fucking loose again so it needs an adjustment.

Credit goes to console modder "Silius" for this modded beauty. http://technabob.com/blog/2013/03/13/nes-console-with-built-in-screen/<wbr>

>>367623
PC10 PPU uses a different palette so it's not really fixable without finding another source of NES compatible PPUs

>>367626
this mod looks great

>>368101
sauce on pic? Reverse image search gets me nothing.

>>367626
It's....It's just beautiful!

>>369327
I second that
