In this first part we’re going to install the DCDigital and a brand new translucent smoked shell! Part 2 will cover the rest of the mods (PicoPSU, Noctua Fan Mod, and GDEMU). The Sega Dreamcast is one of my favorite home consoles and I have wanted to do these mods for a very long time! So sit back, relax and enjoy the show!
    So here's what you will find in this video:
    ► 0:00 Intro
    ► 1:00 Mod Overview

This channel just feels refreshingly honest. It’s super informative, the mods are beautiful and functional, and the reviews are well thought out and even keeled. Filming and editing are on point, too. Happy to subscribe :)

    I love how flush the Mini-HDMI looks on back. I would’ve freaked out if I got no video output. That’s why I stick to converter cables and leave the soldering to the pros.

    • @MachoNachoProductions
      @MachoNachoProductions  3 роки тому +3

      Thanks Erik! I did have a minor freak out when it didn’t work. Thank fully it just required a little touch up! Some of the cable converters are excellent solutions. The vga from the Dreamcast is supposed to be very good! Cheers dude!

    • @Nightopian1982
      @Nightopian1982 Рік тому +1

      Agreed! I've got absolutely no confidence in my ability to solder. My hands are far too unsteady for the task, not to mention my lack of patience if things go wrong. Even if I managed to get to the menu stage, as soon as any of those numbers had an 'x' underneath, I'd be freaking out.
      Like you, I'm happy to stick with the converter cables I've got for my DC and N64, as impressive as the visuals look with the mod. I've got a Fenrir Duo ODE for my Saturn, but I'm not going to risk wrecking my consoles with my lack of technical skill.
      My mate sent me this video. I think he's going to attempt this himself. He's already got the shell on this DC. Still has to get the console though.

    Amazing mod, Tito! I love the Dreamcast. So many great and unusual games. My favorite games were NFL 2K1, Space Channel 5, Samba de Amigo, Fire Pro Wrestling D, and Crazy Taxi. I foolishly missed out on Skies of Arcadia and Shenmue. I hope that Sega eventually brings some of the classic Dreamcast games back for the other consoles... or maybe a Dreamcast plug and play system, like the Genesis Mini. I would never be able to do the amazing mods that you do here. Great work, as always!

    Oh man, Tito... I built my fully modded Dreamcast on Wednesday, then you drop this the day after. You must have been only a few days ahead of me! My build was almost exactly the same as yours, except I get a red case with a white/orange logo from Muramasa, and I got a PicoPSU instead of a DreamPSU. Other than that, complete mirror of what I did, LOL. Also, I removed the outer (inner?) shield of the modem for a little more of that sweet transparent action.
    Very clean port on the back, looks like you took your time with it and it shows. For whatever reason, that's what I was actually most afraid of with this install, but it turned out looking factory just like yours! I did have a couple minor hiccups with the solder work though -- I initially had 00, 01, and 02 as X in the test menu, but a very deliberate reflow of the pins fixed that issue. Also, Controller Port 1 stopped working for me, which is evidently a common issue with the DC Digital kit. I thought it was the fuse at first, but the fix was actually to resolder the reset wire oddly enough. Maybe that anecdote will help someone using this video as a guide like I've done with your previous videos.
    I was just as happy with the install as I am to finally have the ultimate Dreamcast. Your channel inspired me to start modding, and not only is it satisfying saving hundreds of dollars on install costs by doing it myself, it's also a great feeling knowing that it was my hands that put it all together.
    I ended up picking up a matching red Retrofighters controller and red VMU. Never had a Dreamcast as a kid but I wanted one so bad. Guess it's time to dive in and see what I missed out on! Or... just play a lot of MvC2. Can't blame me for that one, eh? Hope you have a blast with that beast because it's such an incredible piece of hardware, now elevated to Ultimate status.

I ran JGR at the title screen for two hours afterwards and no further issue, but that's not exactly stressing the system.

    I did a peasant upgrade: Noctua fan, GDEMU, blue LED to match the PAL logo, original PSU just with resistors added, and a cheap VGA cable which's surprisingly good. Also got a Brook Wingman SD so I can use a Playstation (3/4) or Xbox (360/One) controller with the Dreamcast, and as a bonus the adapter also has 200 blocks of memory like a standard VMU.
