Noooes! Whyyy?! Got a cool #anpanman #sega Pico by getting this #beena Advanced Pico. Has some nice upgrades over the normal #pico. But it has a different cartridge port! Can't play my pico games on it. It's battery operable though and can change the side of the pen for #lefties. Very nice to think of us lefties. #leftiesruletheworld !

Out of the blue my neighbour asks me if I have a #gameboy camera. Duh! So I went digging in the basement. Found some old photos on the camera from 20+ years ago. Made a photo and tested the printer. Yup, still werks!

Back home! Here's the loot!

Found one more grandpa retro game shop in Wan Chai in some half abandoned shopping center and offered to buy all his #wonderswan games. Also got a broken #gameboy light, pocket and dmg. Couldn't leave that #gameboyadvance game either :)

Applied a #wonderswancolor power button fix using a tiny momentary tact button. It works quite well.

RGB modded the CD32 :amigacd32: , no idea if it works because I don't have a MD2 RGB scart cable. Always was a SFC fan, only have a MD1 in the basement somewhere. Used a 9-pin DIN socket upside down, soldered onto the mainboard. Used a fiber glass pen to expose some copper to solder the socket onto it. Used csync from the Sony CXA1145, not composite video. Just have to wait for the MD2 RGB scart cable to arrive now to test.

The TL082 amplifier arrived today, so I could finally continue fixing the sound on the CD32 :amigacd32: . Used a heat gun to remove the ic, after which as you can see in the photo there is a black pad. I used a fiber glass pen to clean it and then re-tinned it. Soldered the new TL082 (U15B) in place and the audio is working properly again.

My first :pico_jp: Sega Pico. Does not turn on, receives no power. Now let's solve the mystery. My daughter wants to play the Anpanman and Doraemon games.

Finished last modification on a Neo Geo AES :neogeoaes: which I did some other mods on (RGB bypass, stereo mod, soundfix, unibios, recap), the buyer chose red for the power led mod. Good choice, I have my own modded with red as well.

Got myself an Atari 2600 :atari2600: flash cart today. Traded it for a "junk" Twin Famicom I still had lying around waiting to be fixed. Can't wait for the composite mod to arrive so I can play some Demon Attack on real hardware again.

BREAKING: Apple takes a trip down memory lane, releasing Mac OS 7.7 in 2023! Get ready to dial up that nostalgic tech vibe as Apple taps into its vintage roots. #ThrowbackTech #MacOS77 #RetroRevival

In a surprising move, Apple decides to unleash Mac OS 7.7 onto the unsuspecting tech world. But wait, wasn't it renumbered as "8" back in 1997? Ah, yes, it was a clever loophole exploitation. #VersionVagaries #LegalLoopiness

Getting my twins ready to find a new home. Finished recapping and fixing audio (fds and volume) for this black/red AN-500B Twin Famicom :logo_famicom_disksystem: :famicom_disksystem: . Of course the belt drive had to be replaced too.

From left to right. I Love Banana, RX-78-2, Insdie Out Boy. :gameboy_yellow: :gameboy_white: :gameboy:

What is the reason #bandai added a lock to the battery holder of the #wonderswancolor :wonderswan_color: ? It's not that easy to remove the battery holder, let alone by accident.

#retrocollecting #retrorevival #retrogaming

Finally found the problem of the crackling in the sound. Stopped changing the recapped capacitors after doing most that were related to sound. Connected one of the audio RCA plugs to clamps, connected it to ground and a paperclip and started probing where the sound originates from the PAULA chip until I reached where the sound starts to distort at U15B, an amp. Now to wait for the replacement to arrive.
