    Rock solid video and I especially liked the important part about the cloned boot loader. It’s such a rampant problem especially in the console modding scene where It’s almost an expected part of the scene. Spend months making a breakthrough modding tool only for someone to clone it, make it cheaper and spread that version. Thank you for making a point of acknowledging the original creator and wanting to give financial compensation.

    • @Professor_Falken
      @Professor_Falken 3 місяці тому

      Yes but with an SP the screws are a lot smaller and the shell is plastic so much more likely to do damage. You can try putting pushing your screwdriver through a strip of rubber band for extra grip?

    • @kestersforest
      @kestersforest 6 місяців тому

      Great question, I should have made that clearer. As standard, Sendico charge 500 yen per purchase for processing. And then there is shipping to your own country which you get lots of options on and the more you include in one shipment, the more save. But each purchase also might come with its own shipping charges from the original seller. Often free shipping within Japan but not always so be careful when reading the listings. The numbers in the video include all the costs.

    DO NOT replace your shell with an after market, I just bought an aftermarket shell from extreme rate to spruce up my childhoot ds light and it is absolutely ruined now, the shell they sent me doesnt close, doesnt snap to a 90 degree angle, and even destroyed my receptor for my top screen because of the ds not opening correctly, i spent hours just to find all of this out after i had put the shell together, again please save yourself and do not get a aftermarket shell

    • @lennybuud2463
      @lennybuud2463 5 місяців тому

      I have recently upgraded my dsl with a housing from extreme rate and i have none of the issues you mentioned. I think they have excellent build quality. However i have recently seen a video with a similar complaint, however he used his original buttons, maybe that’s your issue of closing? Also the ds isn’t supposed to lock in at 90 degrees, but a larger angle and full 180. I will however say that i think the stylus is rather cheap looking and i used the original and i had minor issues with the volume button, which wouldn’t stay in place and i glued a small piece of a toothpick into the housing for support. Other than that i think it’s a superb shell.

    Hi. Thanks for the video. Interesting to see difference in Kaboom (could be because of difficulty switch being on easy? Hence bigger?). In relation to the flickering, if you read Retro Gamer Atari 2600+ issue recent number they explain why it flickers. In relation to Berzerk, little correction, you could/can shoot diagonally but enemies couldn't in original, enhanced version allows enemies to shoot at you diagonally, and have the voice. I probably will buy this version too but will think about Run and Jump :) To add I also have an original 2600 but got this one for xmas (early present haha) Many thanks /GRooBY

    The flicker is related to total amount of sprites on screen - seems 1 sprite + character sprite is allowed at any one time. 2 sprites means they need to flicker/alternate display each one - 3....as you can see they need to flip between all 3. Stairs, enemies and obstacles are made as sprites.

    Im on the fence about this tbh. I might pick one up but I am a bit disappointed in the loading times and some games won't actually work on it. That might get sorted in a firmware update? I think the colour issues might be a PAL/NTSC issue but I can't be sure!?
