I took away this man's stupid club.... and gave him a gun. Not just any gun though, one that works with his original and "discreet" storage slot. The gun is from Arcee - the poopy one no one likes. I repainted it silver and black and sanded down the side tab so it fits in vehicle mode storage

Boneshaker's 5sp wheels being fully painted silver was something I could not stomach. I flat blacked the inlays between spokes and while I was at it painted the inside of the engine intake and side pipe exhaust.

Got me some of them new Matchbox Converters. They're pretty swell.

Pics sent to myself via my own email from my phone, to my pc and posted on my pc because BSKY WON'T FIX THEIR BUSTED FUCKING SHIT.

I'm calm

calmer than you are...

Who is the fucking asshat at Microsoft that decided this would be on by default?

You're a moron, stop it.

There was a time when I thought about these. And then I just decided to build a real one because it would actually be useful.

And so it was done

Left = components that were removed/replaced by the clock mod + finger for scale. Right, playing Super Game Boy on the smallest color TV I have

Me: Super Game Boy Clock MOD? That's ridiculous! No one will ever be able to perceive a 2.4 - 4% difference.

Me 5 secs later playing SuperGB: ... Oh... Oh god.... I...

Yeah so I clock modded a Super Game Boy for accuracy.

Game Boy Advance AGB-001 overhaul. Recently found this forgotten GBA in my collection. This was a Glacier flavor but the shell had seen some sun, yellowed and was crumbling as a result. Decided to run with the cold theme. Has a Funnyplaying v2 screen and a lipo upgrade. V2 screens are the bees knees

Overhauled my Game Gear. Out with the aliexpress screen (shit scaling) in with a BennVenn. OEM audio board stayed and I swapped in a retrosix's "cleanjuice" rechargeable lipo power kit. Shell is retrosix and I fucking hate it. There are a couples points of incorrect internal geometry I had cut/sand

And we're done. Everything is now clean, fixed and fully functional. What a ride.

Ended up moving my 5v line off of q502 onto cn201. Q502 is hard to solder to and I just couldn't get it to stick. Also, previous owner imtionally bridged the internal speaker with the headphone out using a capicitor leg?! Fixed that shit.

PC Engine GT LCDDRV install nearly done. We are operational! Also installed a new power jack, new audio jack and new NES membranes. Now, time to tackle the shell mod and get all this into that.

I definitely paid too much (thanks USA tarifs/asshole president) but yeah, he's fucking rad

Metroid II again... I said my previous time was good enough. I lied.

And I could've gotten a 1:45 but a black wasp irl was fucking with me leading up and into the last boss, causing me to fuck up, leave the fight and retry.

I don't know what to play next
October 12, 2025 at 8:33 PM
METROID II Samus Returns fin @ 2:04. I'm calling that close enough
October 12, 2025 at 3:41 AM
It's not the 2:00 that I was going for but it's damn close and I know exactly where I lost that time. Still, got the good skeevy ending lol
