Are those old shirts you're using as covers? That's a pretty good idea. I have some old favorite shirts that I just can't throw away even though they don't fit or are too worn out.

>>4383698
yup they are old shirts i used to wear in highschool. they had a bunch of holes and rips and i couldnt throw them out for nostalgia's sake (that slayer shirt saw some of my best days) so i cut them up to serve as dust covers for my systems.

>>4383559
Yooo that profeel works in that spot so much better than the old Wega. Good job! Nook looks perfect, you did it

>>4384031

I routinely scan these threads for Anons caught off-guard like that.

Just need a new shelf for my rapidly growing collection.

>>4384039

It's a 25 incher and is a heavy bitch at 120lbs.

It's basically a full size arcade monitor in the house.

bomp

>>4384710
Not really I have one and while it was fun to have you can do better with a mid 90s PVM. The best thing about it is it has external stereo audio output but you can achieve that just plugging your RCA outputs into any sound system you have.

It's a pretty old model. It can't do component or progressive. No service menu to make minor adjustments. I sold mine for twice as much as I payed for the 20" BVM I got to replace it

>>4383559
not oldschool enough

>>4389029
wew

>>4383559
Pretty cool, did you get the official speakers with it?

I got a 27-inch Profeel myself a couple of weeks ago, it's the European model, but should be near identical to the 25" US version. It's currently in storage (and sadly will be for a while) and probably needs a recap/some adjustments, but I simply couldn't resist as it was free + 20€ for the speakers.

821 Retro Games in my Cellar Gaming Room. I like it, it's comfy. ClassicTV died on me and got a Flat for basically nothing, that's why. Modern Systems and another 400 Games in Basement, but too modern for this place.

Can I just say how much I fucking hate the fad of cube shelving going on right now? I mean look at all that wasted space.

>>4389576
Sure. But keeps the Option available to Backlight everything, no dust issues whatsoever (Pic related) aaaaaaaand no Heat issues (And i don't mean the Consoles, i'm talking bout the AC Adapters)

>>4389594
I... just have the lights on at night.

>>4389609
GamingRoom in Cellar (one shitty light inside in the middle of the Room) Main Light source on the Photo is a small window during daytime, so it gets pretty dark plus Eyes irritated when playing longer equals shitty Vision.

Oh shit son I still have that same Garfield alarm in my closet.

>>4390904
Pretty much everyone of a certain age had at least one Garfield gadget I reckon.

>>4389403
Nice!! Yes i got the speakers. They sound awesome!! My profeel needs adjustments , but luckily i found an old tv/vcr repair place nearby that says they can fix it up, not for free of course! You gotta pay play i guess.

TIL there's a <nonretro>PS 2 Slim</nonretro> model that has a normal Figure 8 AC plug rather than a separate power brick. Gottta get one to reduce the power prick clutter.

>>4384140

Kind of Ironic playing a (Super)Nintendo Title on a Piece of Hardware that would not be there, if Nintendo had not fucked with Sony in the first place.
>>4391716
Never judge the Hardware, always the User.

>>4391743
Let's be honest: Sony is a vile, evil company, and Sony would have double-crossed Nintendo had Nintendo not beat them to the punch.

>>4391748
Yeah, sure, i totally agree. But i also have to say Nintendo doesn't hit my Taste like it used to do and Sony has VR, and i'm totally hooked on that. But of course i'm no Fan of the Company, just the products. Nintendo somehow lost me as i got older. On the Retro side i prefer Nintendo. Just my opinion.

>>4390864
Your trinitron is too big for your entertainment center.

>>4391610
Dude i beg you. What Emulator are you using and how can you make it run smoothly? Mine is lagging hard

Op here.
I just dropped 180$ on the super rare, proprietary sony multi input rgb to scart cable.

>>4395985
>180$
>super rare, proprietary
If you actually do go ahead with it, I'd really like to see some photos and such of what the cable (and possible breakout box?) looks like/has in it if you wouldn't mind.

That said, you could have very easily commissioned someone to make you a breakout cable that would do the exact same thing for a fraction of that price. The connector itself is a common floppy drive connector, and the pinout is pretty easy to find.


Additionally, if it still looks the same as the picture in the OP, it badly needs some adjustments done to it, if not a sizable recapping. At the very least, some geometry adjustments and likely some brightness/color balance stuff. I hope it's not looking the bright and washed out in person, since that's putting extra undue wear on the tube as well.

>>4389576
>Can I just say how much I fucking hate the fad of cube shelving going on right now?
God it's been going on for fucking years. I hate it, too. It's basically because it's the cheapest, zero-effort solution.

>>4389029
That screen is a projector, isn't it?

>>4396020
The bottom part opens up and has the projector in it, to shoot up onto the screen.

>>4395985
>I just dropped 180$ on the super rare, proprietary sony multi input rgb to scart cable.
>180$ for a SCART to """proprietary"""" port cable when the unit already has a SCART input and said """proprietary""" port which isn't proprietary to begin with has it's pinout in the service manual
There is so much wrong in this post, tell me you're baiting or something.

>>4396027
>>4396020
Yeah its a front projection tv. color tubes shine out and onto a mirror on the panel. As a kid i used to look directly into the tubes. I think it explains alot

>>4383559
What do you say when someone enters your room and sees the display?

>>4396005
Thanks, captain obvious.

>>4396043
>when the unit already has a SCART input
The KX-27PS1 has SCART straight up, the KX-2501a (in OP) does not.

>>4390786
Man, I would love to have one of those glass cases to put my boxes in.

>>4396005
Reason it is so brigt and washed out lookingnis cause the oicture was taken with a flash. I called an old tv repair guy nearby and im gonna take it to him to have the screen adjusted. Its not centered it has a curve on the left aode of the screen and it has some faint lines that show up on the screen that i think can be fixed by replacin the capacitors in the tv power supply.

>>4396216
Who knows what eldritch horrors lurk behind that curtain

>>4389029

I wish I lived in a house with a proper cellar instead of a shithole studio flat. That brick wall & old furniture aesthetic looks top comfy to me. You don't worry about moisture or anything like that?

>>4396625
it's Nebraska, it's bone dry.

worst thing is if severe rain happens it may cause up to 6 inches of water but that has only happened once in this area in the last 30+ years

>>4395985
You could have made that yourself for literally no more than $5.

Disney Pixars Toy Story 2Buzz Lightyear of Star Command and DUNE 2000!!

>>4397445
Yeah an it would have had no interferance shielding.

>>4397965
The official one uses twisted pair then?

Who am I kidding, there never was an official one. Sony supplied a wiring diagram and 34 pin connector (as parts no less) and expected you to make your own.

>>4398000
Official multi input rgb cable part number is px-34
Sony made one.

>>4398228
PX-34 is the 34 pin (aka floppy drive) connector which was supplied with Profeel monitors.

A solitary ready-made cable (SMK-0001) was offered but it terminated in a DIN connector and was intended for use with the TI-99 microcomputer. It's likely not shielded either.

tl;dr: It's better to make your own. Short as possible with a ferrite bead for EMI suppression and terminating in a suitably ubiquitous connector (SCART of course).

No, not one. All Original. Ea Games on Genesis/Mega Drive had a different Cartridge with the yellow EA Logo. Read here: https://magixbuttons.com/article/story-behind-eas-yellow-tabbed-genesis-games

this is a 90's/early 2000s nostalgia room
no one questions the meme level boba corner with the guitar but the bionicles always get brought up. i like them, they get displayed. i dont have some giant glass display case of obscure anime figurines... its 4 bionicles. chill.

besides, bionicles were everywhere in 2001. i knew boys and girls alike that played with them back in the day so they are the least of my worries on my shelf.

audio is important

>>4401713
this nigga

>>4390864
Sorry to tell you this, bro but... your Trinitron has a memory card slot on the bottom left, so it's probably a model that says it does 720p/1080i near the component/DVI inputs on the back. They don't display 240p scanlines and have scaling issues. Your CRT is too new. Post the model code in the CRT general for confirmation.

>>4409487

What's a quality, long lasting NES clone to buy? Looking at the RetroUSB for it's high-def support, but how's it's reliability? Is it a stable system? Should I just get the original NES? What's /vr/ own

>>4410447
Basically no cheap NOAC clones are worth buying, AVS and Analogue NT mini are the only two worth getting, frankly. Both have great reviews; the NT does more but it's ludicrously expensive. If you're looking to use HDTVs going forward, an HDMI Modded NES or an NES/FC and a scaler are wise moves.

I know my cable management sucks, but whatever, the whole setup is kind of temporary.

>>4410490
>the whole setup is kind of temporary
isn't everything?

>>4410447
Just get an original

NES-101 with a Famicom adapter RF'ed into a portable Panasonic I got at the goodwill. Fun times. Actually a decent rig for Atari games, since many of them were designed to be playable in B&W

>>4409487
kek, he is watching jewtube on baby's first LCD and using a shitty HD CRT. Maybe he could have a proper set up if he sold some of those games and emulated like an adult.

>>4410954
this set up would be perfect if you had a front loading NES and set the TV on top of it. too bad you have the shit model

>>4411005
I'm not really an NES guy, my hardware collection is almost all Famicoms. The NES-101 is the only NES I have, and the TV is longer than an NES is deep anyway.
