Seriously, I haven't had much luck finding detailed shots of the DS4 proto.

I am really liking the SNES Classic after the Hakachi mod was released. Unlike the NES Classic where it super easy to put all the games for the system on it, I am treating the SNES Classic as more of a companion to the SD2SNES I have, as it can generally run all the games it can't while it's rewind/save state function is great for SNES games without battery backup, as it makes it easy to finish those games.

This is seriously the only reason I want one, at least until someone figures out how to get the remaining chips to work on the flash cart.

We already know how, the problem is we can't yet do it without making new flashcards that would cost an additional $200 on top of the current prices to cover the costs...

http://www.marseilleinc.com/mcable-gaming-edition/ MyLifeInGaming is going to be doing some testing with these cables when they release their video on 4K retro gaming pretty soon. I'm real curious to see how they look, but drat sure ain't paying over $100 for an HDMI cable.

I wanted to hook up my TG 16 and seem to be missing the power cable for the CD part, which wraps around the turbo like a gross parasite but lets you use composite instead of RF. It's 11v center pole negative but the barrel seems to be the wrong size on everything I've tried. Anyone know a label maker or whatever wall wart that will work?

Are PS2 Slim adapters that look like this legit? I lost mine and need to buy another one. Losing power bricks is kind of a theme with me.

Yes, it's actually a Sony power brick that was also used with laptops and other Sony consumer electronics, but which provided correct output for the PS2 Slim. It's a convenient thing Sony did back then. Similarly the PSP power supply could be replaced by chargers for Sony digital cameras for quite a while.

It's probably safe to assume that you can never assume anything about Japanese TG16/PC Engine stuff applying to American TG16 stuff and vice versa. Anyhow, since I don't have any US TG16 stuff, moller should take these recommendations with that in mind and weight their merit accordingly: https://console5.com/store/dc-power-adaptor-set-convert-a-standard-power-supply-to-6-different-plugs.html https://console5.com/store/dc-2-pin-interchangeable-dc-plug-atari-5200-intv-ii-tg16-cd-dock-twin-famicom.html https://en.retrogamesupply.com/products/power-supply-for-nec-turbografx-16-cd-rom-dock

I gave a five minute talk about "retro gaming in 2017" to my coding bootcamp classmates a few months ago. If any of you need to explain the ins and outs of this hobby/obsession to the uninitiated, this slideshow I made might be a decent place to start. I don't think any of this will be new info to anyone in this thread. Feel free to liven up your next party with a goony presentation.

I think that is more a generic shape. And without looking, maybe PS1 is round on both sides like that. And even laptop power supplies may work, ones that break away at the middle.

If you cant find one you can use any cord from a PS1 PS2 and just carve it down with a knife to make it fit. It is AC it does not really care how it goes in.
