Zelda 3 is teh bestest. Everyone knows that 

[CommunistGamer]

Nope.AVI

Its zelda 2 and windwaker.

[wiggy]

AVI?

Those are my least favorite, by far.

Well, the CDi games are slightly worse

[CommunistGamer]

I hate you now...

[wiggy]

We gotta be able to bust each others chops. That's what the Internet is for

Anyway, I'll gladly do up a cool Zelda 2 faceplate for ya, and if you're willing to part with your micro for a few days, I'll give it a sweet coat of gold powder to go along with it You'll have the most baller GBA micro EVAR!


Here are some new pics of the collection. Figure it's been a while.  Somehow I keep managing to make more space without starting from scratch with the new shelving that I'm planning.  It is getting tight though.

SNES collection outgrew these shelves, so PS2, PS3, PSP, Saturn, Xbox/Xbox360, GameCube, and Wii all migrated over instead.



Made room for everything else over on the big wall.



All the portables get to hang out together now...



And all of the non-portable carts get to chillax with each other too while the cases portable consoles sit up top



I've got 10 N64 and 15 SNES/SFC games to make covers for still, which means they're gonna spill into that shelf that's holding the Genesis stuff. Gonna be completely out of room soon :/

About that.... I just found out. my brother "lost" my micro, so i need to get a new one. :p lucky me.


And by lost i mean he gave it to someone.


And the only other micro i have is a mother3 micro i left at my cousens house

[Dan-Fu]

Wiggy, pm me about the trade?

[wiggy]

PMed ya!


So, this is the 1st of my own personal SNES games to have a battery go dead.  I've changed plenty for other folks, but have never had a failure of my own up to this point.

It's SimCity.  Of all the battery-backup SNES games that I have, I would exepct this to go first.  It was a launch title AND I can't help but imagine that the save files create a tad more drain on the batery since there's so much data to keep track of, versus something like SMW where the only thing it really needs to save are whcih levels have been completed. 

Anyway, I found these little battery clips that allow me to keep the original tabs in place and only require soldering to one terminal.  I HATE desoldering, and I thought I'd give this a go in order to save some headache.  On top of that, these are actually the cheapest CR2032 holders on digikey 





I guess .5-.6V is about when they crap out :/

Doing some S-vid mods tonight 



And I know at least one member that'll be happy to see this

[Azarkhel]

So close I can taste 'em...

[wiggy]

Genesis 3 S-video mod and power LED mounted under the power switch. 



Custom S-vid to 1/8" mini plug cable.







And just so you have an idea of how wonderfully tedious it was to install that power LED where I did, here's the SMD that I used.



Mmmm, that was fun.  Mounting it was a blast too.  Nothing like needle-nose tweezers and super glue to make someone wanna rip their hair out LOL!

[Dr.Agon]

why do you insist on using SMD LED's? surely mounting a regular LED would be much easier!, do you just have a large stock you want to get rid of or something??
