Well I officially give up. This thing is broken beyond my skill set. If anyone on the fediverse thinks they are able to get this working, feel free to hit me up. I’m happy to part company with it. Well, shipping dependent. I should put together a video on it but I’m not feeling completely motivated to do so. Let me know if you think I should. #retrorepair #retrogaming #nintendo64 #deadconsole

The saga of the Interton VC4000 is over. A client mailed 4 of these consoles to me to mod for use with normal power supplies and composite output, and I can confidently say I know more about the Signetics chipset than I ever thought I would

Treating myself to a TRS-80 repair today. Check out the crunchy ribbon cable!

After getting some fresh foam to hold the little individual cards in place, this Magnavox Odyssey is working fine! Only thing wrong with it was a single broken trace.

Das hatte ich auch noch nicht; der Appke III hat sich ganz schön gewehrt; nach mehreren Retrobright Sessions mit 3% Wasserstoffperoxid. Leichte schlieren sieht man trotzdem noch. Lackieren geht für mich allerdings gar nicht… #appleiiiforever #applecomputer #appleii #retrobright #Retrorepair #retro #computer

It lives! It's now displaying composite video AND it's running off a single 12VDC supply instead of the whacko 15VAC/8VAC it was supplied with.

Well, this should be interesting....

Die Lötaktion (zum ersten Mal auslöten / Sockel montieren) war leider nur Semi erfolgreich. RAM-Fehler immer noch vorhanden, aber dank des großartigen Support des forum64 konnte eine fehlerhafte Adressleitung zwischen RAM und VIC als (Teil-)Fehlerquelle ausgemacht werden. #retro #retrorepair #c64 #commodore

Can't stress this enough, people: if you have a Game Gear, REPLACE THE CAPACITORS

One new CPU later, and the TI-99/4a springs back to life!

Giving this Master System a tune-up. It does work, but it was sitting in a garage for over 20 years in Ohio, so I figure fresh caps and maybe a more efficient voltage regulator will provide some future proofing

While I finish the editing of the #nintendo64 video, how about you all enjoy some relaxing tunes and watch the N64 case get cleaned... #retrorepair #retrogaming #relaxing #contentcreator

This happened. Panicked. Then realised it’s not soldered, it’s supposed to be removable. #nintendo64 #retrorepair #retrogaming

I’m finally dismantling it. Gonna work out what needs repairing or replacing and do a short video on it. No promises but new video should be out next week. #nintendo64 #Retrorepair #retrogaming

Few months ago I found my childhood Nintendo 64. As well as my GameCube which I’ve already done some repairs to (https://youtu.be/WBGmouCh2WI). The cartridge slot is problematic. Not sure what else to do with this other than fix it up, or get some mods and give it an upgrade. Happily take donations for mods, carts, etc if anyone has anything 😂 #shamelessplug #retrorepair #retrogaming #nintendo #nintendo64
