pew pew!

No one gonna say analogue pocket?

I’d say it’s a near certainty. 
 

might be a change in the joy on design and I’d expect a 1080p screen with possibly 4K docked. Maybe even with eGPU in the dock but that could just be wishful thinking. 
 

Either way, after not getting into switch until the lite was released, I’ll be day one for whatever (unless it’s stupid like the wiiu)

Got a multimeter? I would check the voltages being put out over the pins. Might be missing a rail. 

New addition to my backlog:

What voltages have you set on the resaturn? Which type stock psu is it? A, B or C?

Edit: ah, va0 so likely a type A. You’ll want ground, ground, 3.3V, 5V, 9V I think. 

Picked up my copy from Smyths this morning. Just walked in a grabbed one off the shelf. Just like old times. 

A pulled back carrying them to the post office?

I’m using about 24GB just on two Amiga hdf files

I’m just gonna wander into Smyths Friday morning before doing my Aldi shop. 

I only use a single 64gb sd card but then again I don’t try to collect entire rom sets for cd based systems. 

I think stage 3 pretty easily. Stage 4 seems to be when the difficulty ramps up too much h for me. One day I'll see stage 5. maybe. 

there's a few that use the master system mode natively. Castle of Illusion is the most popular one.

I'd be interested to see how the 320x240 master system res looks. 

That pixel grid isn’t pretty. It’s like it’s just been dropped over the non integer scaled image so there’s gradients in the pixels. 
 

As an aside do you have any master system games to test on it?

Which screen did you go with? 

You just need any generic power lead from eBay/maplin/Amazon/Poundland

i think no intro or redump are the ones to use. I use bin/cue files that I rip myself in my Lair from discs i legally own. Takes a lot of Vimm and vigor to do it though...

I spent a rather enjoyable half hour fixing a Dr Mario cart this morning. Probably not worth the effort as it only cost me a fiver but some corrosion near the contacts had eaten through a trace. One small bodge wire later and we’re back in business. Another cart saved from the recycling. 

Heads up!!

This makes me very happy indeed. 
don’t suppose there’ll be a physical version?

I’d moved away from gaming (yay drink and drugs) when the Saturn/psx came out. It was only in late 98 that I got back into it with a very cheap £15 Saturn. Those were glorious days. 

Yes is the bluey green (copper oxide) crusty bobbins. 
 

Any corrosion still on the board will grow and continue eating away at the boards. Clean off what you can physically then use ipa or vinegar to scrub it clean.
 

It could be that the power jack has a contact that disconnects the battery when a power plug is inserted. 
 

But seriously you’ll just be wasting your time if you don’t clean the corrosion off. 

They must have thought about with using a 68000 as a sound processor and have the controller ports electrically compatible with mega drive controllers. 

There was still a fair bit of corrosion on the boards. Make sure you clean all that off.
