Nearly 21 years for the impossible to happen. This is a tried and true softmod for the Xbox 360!!! Copy some files, do an installation, and you've got your system permanently modded on coldboot. A big thank you to @Grimdoomer for making this happen 🖤
Here's the first release of the Xbox 360 Peer Pressure softmod. Blog post will be out in a few weeks with all the technical details. Barring any critical bugs I'll be "hibernating" for the next 2 months to recoup my sanity from working on this project github.com/grimdoomer/Xbox36…

Excited to announce that Sega CDX and Saturn VA0.5 reproduction PCBs and Schematics are now available. I haven't tested these boards (yet) but believe the resources will be valuable to anyone trying to repair these systems. github.com/RGBeter/Sega_CDX_… github.com/RGBeter/Sega_Satu…

GTA Vice City in full VR (weapon handling, combat, holsters, vehicle controls) - works great on Quest 3 standalone 🤯 We have lived to see truly interesting times 🤩 And this gives us hope that soon some modder will roll up his sleeves and do what Meta promised and didn't deliver - a VR port of GTA San Andreas 😛 github.com/dubrovskiy-yevhen…

Found out it's possible to upgrade the VRAM on most PS1s. Stack two SGRAMs except for pin 28, solder a 22Ω resistor onto pin 28 and wire that to pin 121 of the GPU. Thanks @PointerFunction for helping me test it. Hopefully someone can make use of it.

#PSX #PSIO Better than the real deal. Silver & Black. Besides the premium matte aluminium shells, the connector is super robust as well, better than the original for sure. Super easy, drag-&-drop to update the jailbroken firmware. Game compatibility - 99.79% (Google Gemini)
#PSX #PSIO #SIO_xS As much as I hate to admit it, these aluminium ones from AE are built so much better than my originals, and they are fully “updatable” as well. Fabricated some lovely custom switch boards from the gracious @ConsoleMods who shared it openly. Thanks!

A brief Video showing how it works. Placing on the radiator, adding the fan, and lid clearance.
✨🛒#GamerGhostShop - Coming Soon! VA0 #Dreamcast new fans + mounts. Worked out the mount, fan samples coming this week. Lots of prototypes. It slips on the heat pipe assembly and the fan slides in and is held in place. Fans should work with VA1 too. I'll do some thermal tests! #ConsoleRepair #ConsoleMods

Big iFlash2PS2 breakthrough! @rezenclowd3 informed me that he and pcm720 had tried following the advice of @Gusse__ to add 100pf capacitors to ground on the RESET, DIOW, DIOR and DMACK pads of the PS2 motherboard. They found that with this modification in place the iFlash was much more reliable at detecting SD cards even when the PS2 was hot, which has been a problem with some PS2s (especially SCPH-70001 models). After some of my own tinkering I found that 200pf capacitors seem to work better for GH-032 motherboards, making hot reboots basically 100% reliable. I don't see any negative effects on GH-035 motherboards from using 200pf capacitors, so I'm going to recommend that as standard for all PS2s. Now for the big news. Not only does this mod improve hot restart reliability, it also has unlocked reliable detection of many previously incompatible SD cards including SanDisk 1TB and 1.5TB cards! There are probably many other previously incompatible cards that will work now, but I don't have a huge sample size to test at the moment. I've updated the install guide on my website to explain how to perform the mod. It works on all revisions of the iFlash flex. arthrimus.com/support/iflash… I've ordered a reel of 200pf capacitors and once they arrive next week I will begin including them with each iFlash kit sold.

🗞️PS3 overclocking is finally real. After 17 years, researchers have pushed the CELL CPU beyond 4.1GHz. No modchip required. The PlayStation 3 still has surprises left 🔥 onejailbreak.com/blog/ps3-ov…

I recently released a video showcasing cheap 480i HDMI #downscalers for CRT's and said I couldn't find one that outputted YPbPr. Well, I was wrong! Here's a short video showcasing a decent, low lag one!: youtu.be/BUgTIOqetYU #hdmitocomponent #hdmitoypbpr #netflixoncrt
