With all the RE remakes I'd love to see RE Outbreak remade.
that's what I thought too. I really think that'd do well now compared to when it first got released.Quote:

I'd hope so since it's lasted this long but :shrug:.
I didn't think about it till today but does the blue-ray and bluetooth still work?
gonna see about talking to the guy my tv came from (he's a relative) see if he can find the leg stands for it and/or at least the ac adapter. I'd like to not have to buy a universal stand mount for it.
It's functional; I didn't test the ethernet or the analog output but seems unlikely they're busted when the rest works. No PSN since I installed Rebug, aside from PSN I think all the PS3 game servers are dead. You have a controller, right? I forgot to ask but I'm pretty sure you do :sweat:.
If you have the tools and correct screws for the mounting point you could build something with wood scraps.
yeah I do I have a wired and a wireless(maybe another one but I think it had stick drift) aftermarket ones aren't expensive so if I need another one I can probably get one for $15-$20 maybe less.Quote:

BD laser is a different thing, but honestly you don't need it at this point unless you're dumping discs.
If you wanna play BD video discs then any random cheap BD player will do, at work we sell working units with remote for like $20aud max usually... unless it's something really special.
eg just the other day: Samsung BD/PVR with 250GB HDD, 3D BD capable with remote, HDMI and component outputs $20aud
Above unit is PVR but doesn't have any extra inputs like scart or whatever.
If it was a similar thing but like Panny then maybe a bit more $ but not much.
BD recorder with input options then yeah it's going to be more for sure.
You can fix stick drift there are small boards you can buy cheap to correct that, no need to replace the whole stick unless it's totally fucked up.Quote:

Even just a wall mount and then weld up a metal stand from scrap :lol

4.82 is installed and you could easily update to 4.86. I wouldn't bother changing to another CFW, doing the PSN spoofing stuff, or mucking with the pad plugin myself. I would suggest installing the toolbox, toggling QA, dumping stuff, and most of the others.
Most people don't have welding equipment laying around :wacko:. My dad had some but didn't keep it safe from mice.Quote:

I've had an arc welder for years :shrug: They're so cheap there's no reason not to have one imo. Same story for a chainsaw, 4x4 and at least one trailer (no, not a caravan).Quote:

Mig; my brother in law has one.
Probably not a bad idea to pick one up. I haven't welded anything in a long time though.
Cleaning the pots doesn't help any?Quote:

Yeah using some electronics contact spray is the first thing you try. Or if you only have IPA then dump some in there and try to sort it out.Quote:

The replacements generally aren't top quality though, so the fix board is the cheaper way to get a genuine stick working properly again.
There's a trailer sitting in our yard which I should probably get cleared out and see if it can be salvaged before the ground eats it :whistle:.
That was why I never bothered getting a replacement for one of my PSPs. It could be made tolerable with a plugin and I lived with it until I got others. Same with a Sixaxis with the first PS3. Total replacement almost always ends up being cheaper than 'parts' controllers or whatever because people are nuts here :rolleyes:.Quote:

I'm not an expert at soldering now, I was much better when I was younger. So now if I have a project I spend a little time practising on scrap electronics before I tackle a serious job.
I have a Hakko station that sits in its box most of the time.
:bore: starting to get burned out on lego starwars. I also have to dust but I just don't feel like it(though I have been putting it off)
Hakko. Sounds like an Animaniac!!!!
:yakko:
I could never get into the Lego: X series games when I was younger.Quote:

Shit list or no, Switch is still the best selling console. As long as there are little brats convincing their parents to spend on over priced pokemon games and switch consoles they'll continue to be so.
