Finally finishes this project. Bought some acacia benchtops from bunnings. Dark for the D-pad and Select Start buttons and circle area around ABXY buttons. and Light for the rest.

I've got a laser engraver so I could cut out template and route out the shape and timbers to make the D-pad and logos ETC

For the buttons I just filled some cupcake silicone moulds with epoxy and dyed them their colours.

Just found my original receipt for my SNES. Still remember calling and when I got there being told they couldn't sell it before release, but did since they told me they would.

Musha never fails to help me through any tough situation! Whenever the SNES is on Musha is there to battle along side me! His favorite game is Tetris & Dr Mario but he loves all SNES!! If you are ever in a perilous situation, just remember Musha!

Has anyone ever taken a look at the motherboard specs for this cartridge or know where I could find any info?

Just got this recently from a local game store for their free day today and heard something rattling around inside. Turns out it was this little capacitor. I can clearly see where it’s supposed to be seated but the cart works great and played every Game Boy game that I tried.

Just curious as I’m sure I could solder it back on with how clean everything seems, but I’m not sure how necessary it is since everything also seems to work as it should.

Hi. So I decided to add this tiny LED to my SNES Jr. I salvaged this tiny LEDs for some old equipment and I thought it would be a nice fit to my SNES without so much drill.

RIP to my HD Retrovision cables...

So my HD Retrovision cables stopped working a while back, and I just got around to trying to diagnose the issue with them. They're well outside of warranty at this point, so that option is out of the question. I was thinking there was probably a broken wire somewhere in the cable. I started doing some diagnosis starting with the green wire, since that wire is critical for getting a picture, and sure enough there was no signal on green, but blue and red were still working. Unfortunately there was nothing visibly wrong with the cables from the outside, so I wasn't entirely sure where exactly to start looking. Started with the plug end because there is no strain relief there, and that would be the most logical place for a break. No break there, so I decided to open up the other end and uh, I think I found the issue! Completely severed green wire! I have no idea as of yet if I'm going to even be able to fix this because that circuit board appears to be encased in a hot glue like substance, and removing it could potentially pull off components from the board. Has anyone else had an issue with their cable failing?
