Been working on this for some time and it's now finally live. Hitman's Museum: a public archive of every console & CRT I've resurrected. 106 logs and counting. hitmanmcc.com Pick a rabbit hole but my suggestion is, start with this one👇
Hitman's Museum of Consoles & CRTs

Hitman's Museum of Consoles & CRTs

Where dead consoles come back to life.

Saved a PC Engine LT from the scrap pile. Caps had leaked across the board. Voltage regulator IC was dead. LCD bias transformer was broken and no replacement part exists. Subbed it with a DC-DC booster inverter. Screen lit up first try.

My parents had given my kid this RC car a couple of weeks ago but it didn't work very well. It wouldn't accelerate and turn at the same time. So I figured I'd open it up.

Then I soldered it into the new contact already installed into its place.

To my surprise that actually fixed the issue. You can now manoeuvre the car. I guess that maybe the flex applied to the chassis when turning and applying torque was causing it to lose contact with the loose spring? 🤷‍♂️ Glad I sorted it out.

SNESprium (Paprium on the SNES) by Happy-Ferret. Paprium's programmer, Fonzie, wasn't pleased about people attempting to run Paprium outside of real Mega Drive hardware on CRT display, let alone running on the *Super Nintendo*. Anyway, it's just a short demo. "This uses vast parts of my Duck Engine. Previously used for an, as of yet, unfinished and unoptimized SNES port of Jazz Jackrabbit..."

We paid for it. We're finally playing it. Paprium was built around a custom chip inside its

Today, on the workbench we have another one of my childhood RC cars, all grotty and partially broken. This one isn't turning.

Then I threw the shell into the ultrasonic too, for good measure.

It's certainly not looking like new but it came out quite decent and best of all, it works. 😁
