It's almost Winter again and it seems that that's when I do the majority of my projects. In the pipeline, I have my 2600p (which is at home, so I won't really be working on it), my NESCade (that will finally start whenever I find a suitable monitor) and many miscellaneous gameboy mods. This...

I ask because I'm looking to make a cool wall clock. My budget is ~$50 max, but I'm hoping to spend closer to $35. Feature wise, I want it to be analogue and have a pendulum. I'm wondering: 1. What's a good diameter? Assume that the pendulum will be 70-100% as long. I'm thinking between ~10-14...

http://www.pokemon.co.jp/bw/index.html More info Saturday night, probably. Thread title is a joke; I don't mean to offend. :P

I have a few miscellaneous questions relating to various Gameboys and decided to cram them all in one thread. 1. Is there any online database of Gameboy cartridge mobos? I know there's an N64 one, but I haven't been able to find a Gameboy one and I want to see what games have really tiny mobos...

Kind οf neat site here. My personal favorite so far ιs Thinkgeek.com, but I haven't looked through all οf them yet. By τhe way, someone here needs το make this. EDIT: It seems MR has some word filter antics going on. How festive. EDIT2: 20ish edits later, αnd I've successfully fixed τhe word...

Sorry for the atrocious title, but I couldn't resist. :roll: Anyway, this is my entry for the April Fools contest (which better be a real contest!). Terrible quality pictures and video, I know. If you can't tell what this is, it's two gameboy games shoved into the same cartridge shell...

So I'm about to order $8.06 worth of jacks and crystals from mouser, and the estimated shipping cost is just short of 8 bucks. I have exactly $22 dollars left on my account, and I feel that I should add about 6 dollars worth of stuff to my shopping cart so that when I need some parts in the...

This is probably my fourth thread where I propose an idea for a future project and never get around to actually doing it. This one is probably the easiest yet though, so we shall see. Basically, I plan on making a modular PSOne portable, because it'd be really, really, really simple. The only...

I have a hard time finding space to do my modding. I have one desk that I use for homework and modding. Here it is: Right to the left of my desk, I have a box containing an SNES, a smaller box full of a DVD player's mobo and parts, a soldering gun (too bulky for me to use), and miscellaneous...

At launch, I imported Pokemon Soul Silver. About a week after I got it, I accidentally left the pokewalker in my pocket and did some laundry. This was my first load doing laundry myself too. :roll: Normally, I wouldn't care. Electronics are fine to be washed and dried when they aren't on...

It's not wired up to anything but the charger.

Good morning/afternoon/evening, etc. fellow ModdersRetro. As most of you know, bentomo recently finished a musical glove project. I've become interested in this project and would like to make my own, but with a few spins on the original idea. Obviously, since I never know what I'm doing, I come...

I haven't played my Wii in over a year because it can't go more than 30 minutes without overheating. For example, I can't even get through Wily's castle in MM9 without the thing overheating and turning off. Since MM10 and BLASTER MASTER: OVERDRIVE are coming out soon, I figure that it's about...

Rules as in the noun, not verb. :mrgreen: Anyway, I have this assignment due about 6 days ago for my law studies class where I need to come up with an idea for a rule change/addition for my school/local community. Since my only problem with school is the homework, which can't be outlawed, I...

Share your favorite music, neat music, whatever. (Youtube) Links are encouraged, as are descriptions of said links. Recently, I've grown fond of rap music when mixed with video game soundtracks. Here are a few links to albums/tracks that I'm currently enjoying. Tae K-Megaman Mixtape...

I finally did it. Nicccccccccce! (This is also my front-lit CGB, hence the green and purple wire+resistor) The third picture shows a gap between the two case-halves that I can't figure out how to close. The bottom screws normally do that job, but I dremel'd away the screw wells. Oh well. I...

I want an avatar 90 pixels wide and no more than 120 high of: (in black and white, no grey) inside this: . The LOST s6 premier is in two days, and this could be my way of participating or whatever. If anyone would oblige, I'd appreciate it very much. :) Furthermore, I guess this thread could...

Alright, time for an update. I just got some parts in the mail. I've done little in regards to planning, so I hope that doesn't catch up to me later in the project. :P Here's the plan for the interior. Featured in the picture is the screen (LED modded), cart/cartslot, 4x4, batteries, and pot...

All the other Gameboys have 4MHz. :( I went to overclock my newly frontlit GBC (with an 8.19MHz crystal) and I couldn't get it to work. After trying for about 5 more minutes, I looked at the preinstalled crystal. "8.3"--I was underclocking the thing! Well, this topic is just for me to rant...

So, normally, to solidify my knowledge on a physics subject, I read the book and watch Khan academy videos. This way I learn the material from both a formal and a casual standpoint. This method has allowed me to achieve perfect scores on most all of my tests. Anyway, I'm trying to learn a...
