just did the snes vertical line fix and feels like i got a headache from breathing in the solder.

what console mod should i do next? s-video for genesis or buy the $61 cable? rgb mod for nes? heard that one is a real bitch to do.

Stop mutilating systems.
Find non-working ones and fix them if you really want to have fun soldering.

S-video Genesis mod was fun as hell and totally worth it.

He already owns them so it's not like he's taking other ones off the market for people who want unmodded hardware.

This, do the s-video mod next or mod a ps1 to play burned discs. Link to the snes mod?

Also these consoles will need soldering work eventually, you think those capacitors are gonna last forever? The resistors and transistors will need replacement eventually also.

Isn't S-video kind of pointless when the console does RGB?

i got a super game converter on my ps1 to play burn games but now i just use a modded ps3 to play ps1 and ps2 games.

i just did the 16v 470uF capacitor and it worked perfectly on super metroid.

Why do people who can barely even hold a soldering iron think they're qualified to go poking around their consoles? Pic related is /vr/ OC from redditor normalfags like you. On that note, is it just me or has this overall been the most destructive summer in /vr/ history? This place is just infested with blatant newfags now.

Fuck off, s-video is good. The genesis modchip works fairly well although I'm still having a bit of noise pop up on the screen. I was planning on desoldering the video chip and putting in some copper sheeting which worked pretty well for my Famicom

Easy mode:

>Get a game shark

>Play backups
>Never modify system

Total time wasted: 3 minutes.

I mod what I want, when I want.

Here's a filtering .01uf cap on the audio pins in a Supaboy (Version 1 with the Barrel-type DC plug and 4:3 LCD)

Clears the buzzing issue right up, audio sounds fantastic.

Derp. Picture. I suck cocks.

Advantages over version 2: It rusn Street Fighter Alpha 2 without the need for a CIC mod.

Advantages over Supaboy S: No forced shitty 16:9 mode.

It's fine, yes, but sucks compared to RGB.
People like to get cucked, it's a fetish, you have it.
