I have a black backwards compatable wii but I don't put gamecube discs in it due to those getting stuck in the system. That disc drive needs to be replaced.
what happens if my gamertag was put on dark web allsp good video i only subed other day
@@ZacBobisKingyes I got brave its great
Hey Jacob, just want to say since finding your channel a few weeks back, you inspired me to buy a proper screwdriver set and open up my old 360 for cleaning since it stopped working back in 2018. I’ve got it working and it’s awesome reliving some memories. So thank you for doing what you do!!!
That's a good backstory
Glad you got it back up and running. 360 is an amazing console
Just seeing all the old nostalgic things left behind for trash hurts me on the inside 😢
It wasn't really left behind for trash, it was sold as bulk.
Yo Jacob, DKoldies just made a short addressing their refurbishing practices. They said they'll now open every single console and replace capacitors and thermal paste as needed. I know you've already made a lot of videos about them, but could you do an update buying a 360 or PS3 and checking their new practices?
he already did that.
Lol not again 😂😭
@@jrob0021 🤣 Maybe give them some time to sell off the "refurbished" stock!
Dang I was ready to tell Jacob. It appears I have been beaten.
I bought a ps3 slim, it’s on the way to my house, I’ll let you know lmao
Great video man. Also to note, when the WiiU came out they gave the ability to transfer all data or most of it to the WiiU. Everything went to the WiiU / Wii dashboard. Great series 😂
Ohh yeah good point, forgot about that
There are probably only about 2 millions Wiis reset that way, as the Wii U did so bad and there were a ton of non-wii owners who owned a wiiu, and people who didn't realise that was a feature
One time I tricked a Normal Wii that it was a Wii U Wii Emulator and got both a Wii transfer and a Wii U Transfer
I'd say my favorite special edition is the green Halo 3 edition 360. Got one in very good condition a couple years ago for a really good deal, and I actually ended up getting everything else later. Like the box, controller, hard drive and even the headset
The gold colored chrome on those hard drives is beautiful
I always will love the gears of war xbox consoles, and the resident evil fat red 360 jasper console as well.
Sony did have a major data breach during the PS3 era. Maybe owners wanted a little extra assurance when they moved on from their consoles.
0:06 Guys, Welcome to the T-E-X-A-S LOAD.
A while back I bought a pallet of broken/as is consoles from one of the goodwill centers in Georgia and they deliberately pulled all the hard drives out of the Xbox 360s and PS3s... SMH. And those two systems were 50-75% of the pallet. The PS3s wont even boot without one which made it a long drawn-out, painful process to test them all. I was pretty disappointed, especially since it wasn't disclosed. Oh well. I was definitely jealous of the ease in which you were able to turn on and test those PS3s.
Was this recently? There was a lot I was looking at from a goodwill in georgia a few months ago... actually I've seen them sell multiple large lots of consoles. That's tragic though... thanks for letting me know. I might have to stay away from those Georgia goodwills
@@jrob0021 It was a couple of months ago at the goodwill of north georgia. Apparently they did it to safeguard the peoples stored information but like.. theres no sensitive data on game systems? They weren't budging on their stance when I tried to explain it made little sense, while also devaluing the systems as a whole. On the bright side though, even though they were listed as broken, a good bit of them worked. Also after looking at the photos though, none of the OG 360s in the photos had hard drives on top.. which ultimately wasn't a coincidence. Theres another center farther down in middle GA (Macon) that I bought a pallet of misc gaming items from once and everything in that one seemed untouched. However it ended up being a LOT of accessories. Not a lot of games or consoles.. however it was just a bulk lot of gaming items without much detail of the contents so I couldn't really complain. Probably wouldn't do it again though at the price point I had to pay for it all.
before you change the hdd on the last ps3 you should copy the data and send it to the ps home revival project
Just got a wii! Excited to start retro console collecting. My dream is to make a store like DKOldies (but actually clean consoles, and have good customer service) when i get older
Good luck! Haha
I just started doing some collecting this year as well, and well I don't have anything rare yet, it's fun for sure. Also I happen to have 3 Wiis for no real reason. I don't want to start a store, but I'd love if there were a store that I could maybe send people to get into collecting since it isn't super accessible right now.
DK oldies have good customer service?
@@leo13246 Not consistent good customer service.
dont be like this guy tearing down someone else business to promote his own and you'll be fine
Holy Cow 120 Consoles
Down to only about 70 now! 😂
I purchased a fat PS3 from goodwill auction for 20 bucks. Works great, had games on it already, and a few accounts on them (which wouldn't sign in thankfully for them). I found so many messages in there, from the PS3 spam/scam messages, to the generic salty ones. And one picture of a meme about birth control from 2012
YLOD doesn't necessarily mean a console is a lost cause, especially for a K-01 PS3. It does take soldering skill to do but you can connect a syscon extractor and extract all the error messages to a computer. For a lot of the PS3 systems from J-01 and onward, the YLOD actually tends to be caused from the NEC capacitors failing, probably what happened to the PS3 you tested since it actually booted up most of the way. For earlier systems like backwards compatible ones, YLOD pretty much means the GPU is dead and it'll cost a lot to get it replaced.
This ps3 had rlod, not ylod
@@jrob0021the light is yellow for a second then flashes red.
oh wow, seeing not only a working phat, but also one that was played VERY RECENTLY is very heartwarming to me, especially as someone who plays LittleBigPlanet 2 on their ps3 to this day lol
lmao jacob acts like the last time they played the wii they sold it. It just means that it could have sat in a room or box for 5 years before being donated. Like its not just IMMEDIATELY to the goodwill store hahahaha.
My favorite 360 is the Star Wars 360 S. Alternatively, for the other models it would be the Elite for the OG 360 and the Blue COD 360 E. The original model is cool with all the faceplates you can get but I prefer the reliability of the other models. The Star Wars 360 is cool because I believe it is the only Xbox to have a Blue LED for the power switch and the cool details of the console such as the R2-D2 noises it makes and when you open the disc tray it has a neat episode 4 reference by having text on it saying "Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, You're my only hope." Not to mention the gold C-3PO it comes with. The Blue 360 E is just a fun oddity that I like just based on the release itself. A 360 made in the XBONE era that looks like one at a distance is so redundant it's funny, I love it.
you should put an SSD in the phat, it will make the console run faster and better, more reliable, more profit. Also about a year ago my super slim did something similar, where it froze in game, and when i went to turn it off, but it was stuck on the flashing power off green light (I call it GLOD), and i unplugged it, and when restoring filesys it would get stuck on 47%, so i had to wipe the hdd. it hasnt had a problem since so maybe it was something like that
ps3 update 4.90 was released feb 2023, so its definitely seen use
We're gonna need a headcount of the Wii Sports copies after 😂
Lol we’re at like 10-12 right now. I still have 20+ Wii consoles left, so imagine I’ll find another 3 or 4
@@jrob0021 Sure hope so! At this point you're making bank!
You never know, they might have decided to do one last 24 hour marathon of Mario Kart before selling their Wii.
I love seeing old beaten up consoles tested, inspected, repaired and refurbished. The nostaligia and the unknowns about each machine and then restoring them. Old profiles erased only for new ones to be created, prolonging the life of the console. I hope you get some old Atari consoles one day.
whoever had the empty 32 GB card probably had plans to buy and play tons of games, then heard about Retro gaming getting expensive and was like "so much for that idea. . ." defeated and crushed they forgot about the SD Card inside.
Or they the system within they heard they needed a PC so that Crush their dreams or they heard that they shop closed or they found out you couldn't even load save us from the SD card you can only put them on the SD for backups
One of my favorite consoles was the special edition 360 Halo edition. It wasn't anything fancy, but it was one of the few limited edition consoles I owned until I lost it when my home flooded.
It's crazy there are still sealed 7th gen consoles
Ikr
The graphics on the MW2 editions are so simple it’s beautiful. My MW2 edition has the same manufacture date as yours.
meeting a shawty on black ops II was fire back in the day for sure the playstation messages were poppin
25:22 4.90 is the latest PS3 Dashboard
I’m thinking the last video he’s gonna test that OG Xbox he found!
Broo ,make a series about stuff you find on these consoles.
Favourite 360 is prob the Halo 3 Limited Edition in terms of that classic look but there is a ultra rare variant of the 360 which is the ODST Special Edition that came from a Twitter contest that was given out for a week and I wish they actually released it as a Limited Edition because its swweeeeettt AF
I’m addicted to this series
My favorite is the Modern Warfare 2 Limited Edition. Very hard to find in my country. But I still love my Black Elite Jasper. Just finished Bulletstorm last weekend.
The Gears of War consoles are always the best ones. I also really liked the red Resident evil one.
Forza one for me. Does a cool engine rev up
The Green and Metallic Bronze Halo 3 edition 360 is my favorite
I own a black wii with the game cube ports but I mixed the case with the blue walmart cases that did not have game cube. Still working in 2024!
My all time favourite limited edition Xbox 360 will forever be the R2-D2 with the C3PO controller
My PS3 with the same model had NEC torkin issues and also crashed very offen but now they are replaced and works
7:25 thats funny i was gonna comment "foreign disc series revival when"
Just dance disk: *says kinect at the top right next to "xbox 360"*
him (only once coming across an error screen): "i guess its a kinect game?"
24:58 that's the same issue my old PS3 had
6:28 no way I just saw this on Facebook Marketplace 😮
Where did the noise at 24:35 come from?
Tip for the power button on ps3: put electrical tape and is t should be fine, thats what i did white my old ps3 when it fell and broke.
Use kapton tape to secure the power buttons metal disc on the ps3 super slime. Thats what they use from factory, theirs is just cut to size
It would have been cool if the start up sound was the sound of the character reloading the gun and the shut down sound was the sound of the character pulling the trigger of the gun.❤😁👍🏻🔫🔛🔊🔫📴🔊
6:44 Imangine if the old owner got rid of the wii because they thought the disc drive wasnt working and it was just an wrong game
If you're a Star Wars fan, you would know that's R2D2 sound
The R2D2 Slim with the Gold C3P0 controller and the see-through Halo 4 Slim Both look really cool and I think those look the best to me personally. A close second is the MW3 Slim model, it looks really sharp and has a nice grey color on it.
You should do a similar thing to this but with PS1 and PS2 consoles along with memory cards for them. Real interesting browsing through someone's saves from almost 20 years ago
Hey Jacob, seems like you’re hitting the Xbox 360 pretty lightly when trying to open a stuck disc drive. Idk if you know this already but the tray is held in by a magnet so you have to hit it fairly hard for it to disconnect and open the tray
I actually found a black wii a few years ago at work sidenote im a garbageman so in always finding old games/ consoles
Keep up the content bro love it and the "texas load"
The Xbox with the stickers on it used to be mine lmao. The under armor sticker was from my football cleats. The apple sticker was from my moms phone
Maybe the 32gn sd card was used to play games cause most probably the wii was modded but then restored without formatting, cause when modded, it plays from burnt discs, usb and sd cards, so that's my theory, you could put the sd card in your pc and if there's games, it was a modded wii
Jacob hoarding all the Wii Sports, no wonder the price has shot right up 😜
this man probably owns over 10 peoples childhoods
I have a black GameCube compatible Wii. It’s in pretty good shape for being about 14ish years old
broooooo I'm sooooo happy that my old 360 is in good hands I have a big collection and i had 2 mw2 edition 360 and a lot more special edition consoles. and i just got the new Spiderman edition PS5 and I'm loving it 😍
I’d wager a bet that almost all of the PS3s being factory reset is because they have much more personal data on them than the 360s, instead of just games they can have games, personal photos and videos, music, movies, etc. and I don’t doubt that someone looking to sell their PS3 would wipe the hard drive
You can tell if a Wii has a disc in it before you turn it on. Look on the drive push the felt open a little. You will see two metal clamps that means it has a disc in it.
That might be my Playstation with the dirty messages to my girl 🤣😂
15:23 for that PS3 that’s just Kapton tape, you can probably stick a fresh slice on it and it’d be good to go.
The PS3 you called a Supper Slim is just the normal Slim. Most PS3 are silent until you play a demanding game. The Fat PS3 was noisy all the time.
Opening a 360 basically fresh gave me some insane nostalgia
Jacob i think the disc drives In most of the Xbox 360 is just falcons is just a bit less valuable than the jasper since falcons ports are a more older model than the jasper model
bruh i once found a small sd card case with 3 sd cards in it, each of them had family photos, backed up massages and a couple of dirty photos and videos in all of them, they were apparently used in phones from the t9 era
My first 360 lasted me a little more than 10 years but I took care of it very well
one of those Wii’s were mine! I recognized the mii’s exactly…
Hi Jacob, i have a xbox360 and it still works fine to this day and i still play it from time to time, and i barely have any problems with this console, and also love the vids man keep up the good work.✌️👍
your video on the texas load is great. i would like to see on more PS3 or PS2 pick ups and referbishing on those systems. to me are very intresting on those systems. thanks.👍
I can tell you that you are the only one who made a lot of Mii’s on the Wii. I made at least 100 Mii’s on the Mii Channel
My favorite Limited Edition 360 is the Halo 3 One, That green is beautiful and the orange disk tray is also quite excellent, Currently own ALL the Halo Special edition Xbox consoles
Nice, just got into Halo myself but I always thought some of those special edition consoles were awesome.
The Halo 1 OG Xbox is so cool cause it's that see-through green!
So question about the old Wiis. Just because a game boots, doesn't mean it's entirely okay. How do you know it doesn't have that one broken update? I had that issue with mine, all of a sudden Smash Bros Melee wouldn't load, most other games worked fine to an extent but rare instances like LoZ: Twilight Princess kept hitting points where they would just no longer progress, which never happened before that update.
The South Park Ones. They Made Those In December 21st 2004
When you tap your hand onto the xbox try to hit where your wrist and
Palm meet up almost where your
Lower thumb is at thats my advice
6:42 Foreign disc!
The button on a ps3 super slim not working, that’s just so random 🤦
Lol ikr
There is a setting in the 360 that allows you to boot straight to the media center
That Texas load sound is so funny
I have a feeling the most common letter used in those PS3 Messages was the letter "N"
The Gears 3 console rocked
Halo Reach limited edition sent the Bungie era out in style.
6:51 Yeah, i found "BLACK" Platinum for PS2 in my Wii, i honestly want to buy a PS2 just because i want to play some unknown to me first person shooter game😐
YOU BETTER NOT RESET THAT WII WITH THE VIRTUAL CONSOLE GAMES
have to, this is not the Game Preservation Society, he's reselling the consoles, therefore he cannot be leaving someone else's personal info on it.
Suggestion, throw us off and secretly buy a ps3 with the profits
My favorite special edition 360 is the Halo 4 one. I think it looks really good, and the controllers look amazing.
10:59 on my Xbox one X only one rubber foot is not missing 😂😂
the blue light on fat and slim ps3s means that theres a game in there if u boot it up for the first time
Don't know much about xbox but those HDD's can be simply decrypted by simply plugging into a desktop and decrypt it. No working console needed.
My Fav Limited edition 360 was the Halo reach edition.
It’s the man, the myth, and most importantly the legend. The legend of untested consoles.
My favorite special edition 360 is the Halo 3 one
I still use mine to this day
My 360 red ringed today after spending all my videogame budget on 360 games lol..
i have wondered if you have ran into any og Xbox ones that has the drive belt turned into its primordial state like those old audio cassette players
That Wii owner knows something we don't
6:19 falcons are still good they don’t red ring it’s just the xenon and the zephyr
The gears of War console was by far my favorite. The red one
I own a black, backwards compatible wii. They do exist!!!
