Don't get too excited, I took the kids on Wednesday and tbh I was quite disappointed :-( 1 small room with a display case of old consoles and games and the following consoles set-up to play - PS1, PS2, N64, Megadrive & Atari flashback. They also had a few demo games created by students from the loca...

Morning all, Can anyone point me in the right direction of a good step-by-step Wii full dismantle? as I'm looking to do a full case replacement. I've found a few sites on the internet such as YouTube but non seem to go into much detail or stop at the point of removing the CD drive or are poor qualit...

Scrap my last reply, it's doing it again !!

Model number is BX2D

Thanks for the responses guys, appreciated. Update - It would appear the TV can support upto 1080i, however, just changed the res down to 720p in the One's settings and appears to be ok now (fingers crossed). Although still dosen't answer the question why it appears in 1080p res when I switch the ca...

Ok guys, can any of you techies help? Just bought an Xbox One yesterday, connected it to my Sony Bravia TV and all appeared to be good but no sound? I googled the issue and rectified the problem through the 'settings' menu by selecting the HDMI option rather than the defaulted DVI and all was ok so ...

Picked up a generic PSU from the car boot this morning as it looked like it would fit a Megadrive. Output is 10v and 1.2a unfortunately the tip is the wrong polarity, therefore I'm thinking cut the tip and solder a new tip as Maplins sell them for a few quid. Question? Would this work and any helpfu...

Picked up a GBA SP with 6 games for a fiver and Pokemon pinball for a quid. However, star buy of the day a boxed Atari 2600 (light sixer). Seller told my it didn't work but included a bundle of games in the box. Got it home and it worked perfectly along with a total of 19 games, 2 controllers, 2 set...

First Carboot sale for me this year, a wii bit chilly but I braved it.

Linux 1.0 for Playstation 2 - £1.
Tomy 3D Sky Attack game - £1.50.

Nothing else much of interest, just the usual PS2 PES/Fifa .

Popped into my local Gamestation (Northwhich) yesterday for a lunchtime browse and clocked a notice wanting Megadrive, SNES, N64, Gamecube & Dreamcast software/hardware - see staff for details!!! I asked the guy behind the counter if they had any retro stuff "Only whats on the shelf" mainly PS2 and ...

Title says it all really, ideally looking to trade for other PS2 title (see list below). Happily accept disc only as I only need it to complete my 'Crash Bandicoot, Action Pack' I bought recently but missing said game. Bomberman Hardball. Crazy Taxi Metal Slug 3. Metal Gear Solid 2 : Sons of Liberty...

There is a letter code on the barcode label that could help you figure it out. If the usually miserly buying practices are anything to go by then it probably says something like KS.HH , KH.HH or even SK.HH if they were being a bit more generous. Sadly some of the letter codes are different in some ...

Passing my local 'Crack Converters' on Saturday I noticed in the window they had a Vita with 3 games (Rayman, Fifa Football & Golf) for £180. Now I don't normally buy bundles as there's usually only one, maybe two titles that's of interest, however, I popped in and asked if the games were interchang...

You can also add Pacland to the list as each level scrolls left to right and the return journey right to left.
