Has anyone here modded an N64 controller to use a thumbstick with a potentiometer? I play a lot of Mario Kart and the thumbsticks on my controllers get really loose from moving left and right to get the drift boost. I'd like to mod a 1st party controller to use a thumbstick with a...

I'm looking to buy a cheapish 3D printer soon. Does anyone have any home 3D printer experience? I'm looking at one right now but I'm wary of the lack of brand name associated with it...

Edit: Sold! I came across this a few days ago. I plugged it in and it loaded up Donkey Kong 64. I don't really have any desire to finish up this portable. The controller ports are no longer on the motherboard. The relocated expansion pack sticks out over the end of the motherboard a little...

I'm doing some cleaning and found a bunch of stuff that I was going to throw out but I figured some modder might find one of these things useful. I have way more stuff I'll be posting in the coming days but this is what I have so far. You just pay shipping and I'll send out whatever you want...

I was given a 42 inch Toshiba Regza LCD TV that doesn't display picture. I checked out the inverter boards and found that each transformer was receiving 12 volts like it should. Is it possible that one of the transformers is bad and causing the whole backlight to not light up?

I listed this a while ago but ebay pulled it. Hopefully it doesn't get pulled this time because I need money :awesome: http://www.ebay.com/itm/181356924913

I made a Super Nintendo that turns on with a tap of the finger. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GURs1eeROtM I posted something about this a while back but now I have a lot more details on it. Here's the instructable I made: http://www.instructables.com/id/Touch-S ... -Nintendo/ If you guys...

I got a 27c801 eprom and programmed it with the patched rom and soldered it into a stunt fx cartridge but it won't work. Does someone have the md5 of the correctly patched rom that needs to be programmed for me to compare with? The patched rom worked fine in zsnes. I'm pretty sure the...

Just found this on hackaday a little bit ago. It's a guide for making wireless SNES, N64, Saturn, etc. controllers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... lnmfaILCHw The guide is in the video description. I'll definitely be making a wireless N64 controller.

I modded this super nintendo to turn on with a touch, and off with two touches. It's basically just an arduino controlling a relay. TVODZzuJwMs The power switch was covered in tinfoil. A wire is soldered onto the other side. That wire is connected to an arduino which controls a relay...

I just installed Windows 7 on my computer because I got it free through MSDNAA. I left behind a desktop overflowing with useless icons and pretty much everything on my hard drive. I wanted to start fresh. I'm in the process of copying over all the music from my ipod right now. I've heard...

Most of the big places have leaked black Friday ads on bfads now. What are you guys planning on getting (If anything)? I'm considering getting this xbox 360 bundle http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Microsoft+- ... &cp=1&lp=3 which will be $200 at best buy. What are your opinions on "Sharp" TVs...

My router has a built in firewall that prevents me from using fun things like PSN and multiplayer games. If I want to get a port unblocked I have to call the ISP and have them open the port for a fee, which is what I had to do for FTP and xbox live. There is a reset button on the back of the...

I recently got a broken laptop for free. This is it: http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/Q10 ... Rsp2.shtml . Except instead of having a 100GB hdd it had a 250GB hdd. After some troubleshooting I figured out that the hard drive was bad and replaced it with a 60GB hard drive I had laying...

Today I went to turn on my 360 and it wouldn't boot. When I press the power button on the console, the middle green light comes on, but nothing happens. The lights don't spin around in a circle like they normally do. I rarely play xbox, so the last time I used it was about 2 weeks ago, and it...

I'm in the mood for some lulz right now and I'm thinking I'm going to go to different stores and get on the PA system and say things. I used to do it at walmart when they had phones everywhere. What do you guys do for lulz? Another thing I want to do is get on one of the PA systems in my...

I have a hardly used jasper xbox 360 that I was going to put into a huge briefcase thing (old video camera case) with an lcd monitor, but I decided that I could put my 360 to better use after seeing how big and un-useful the end result would be. If I ever make a 360 laptop it's going to be made...

What's it called when a photo is edited to have multiple "frames"? Not sure if that's the right way to put it, so I'll give an example. http://leegertrained.files.wordpress.co ... =450&h=450

6/22/11 I got the expansion pack relocated. I'm surprised that it actually worked. It took me about 3 - 4 hours total to do. The last half hour was mostly troubleshooting and looking for shorts. I also got the cartridge slot relocated. I was a little bit scared when it didn't boot at first, but...

I picked up an as-is electric scooter at a garage sale for $10. The person running the garage sale told me it was found on the berm during spring clean-up, but they couldn't get it running because they didn't have a key. I brought it home and hot-wired it and got it started up. It runs now...
