A friend of mine bought this MMX game a while ago, while he was cleaning it he noticed that bridged connection and got really upset since he paid for it as if it was untouched, but then someone else showed him the one on the 3rd pic which makes us wonder if every other MMX game has the same thing, I don't think it should, has anyone else had any suspicious items around?

It doesn't look like aftermarket work.

I don't see any open pins on the ground rail and if there was a broken resistor the tech would have replaced it instead of soldering in a random new wire with resistor in line.

That's probably what it came like new.

that's a cut trace which is where that wire is rerouting from after adding a bit of resistance. A lot of old systems, games and hardware have a surprising amount of last minute official modification. The Sega 32x comes to mind, if you've ever disassembled one you'll see how sloppily put together they are.

A couple iterations of the Genesis have some odd modifications. This one appears to be a signal inverter, but I've never bothered to research the schematics of the system to see why it might be needed.

I've seen a genesis model 1 system with heatsinks attached to certain chips. I'm convinced Sega had people experimenting on hardware and ended up shipping it as retail units. It seems interesting when I think about it. A lot of "officially modded" genesis systems are floating around out there.

I haven't taken too many systems apart, but this is this was the second Genesis I've seen with wires being added after the board has been etched.

nintendo systems tend to be firmly finalized in each revision. there's a ton of sega system revisions however, especially for the genesis. It's interesting to see how a lot of genesis systems that had some patch work or experimentation done on them ended up in customers hands.

that said, nintendo systems have some weird things like on the video out for certain one chip models which results in an inadequate pulse in drawing lines up to the half way point. You can correct it by replacing the capacitor with one with a higher capacitance. There's a few oddities here and there and it's a lot of fun working with it I think.

So how does the chip in the Jr snes make the pixels clearer? some dude was trying to tell me that over the standard first edition. Also, isnt the original release of the 16 sega genesis(the one with the volume scale on it) better then the more compact 2nd sega genesis?

>>13979800

I don't know the specifics of it. I think it mostly has to do with nintendo getting a better grasp on the hardware spec and ultimately consolidating and condensing processing across multiple chips into less and less. There's a few explanations for it, an easily understood one would be additional tampering with a signal is bound to produce more noise. There's RGB bypass boards for this reason, it takes the raw, final RGB signal from a system and amplifies it before sending it out and avoids and low pass filters done by other pieces of hardware.

I guess in the most layman terms possible, imagine a distributed baking process. You have one building that mixes the ingredients. the other which bakes it, and the last one which applies finishes like icing and stuff. There's a distance to travel to each building, and along the way certain things happen that are undesirable, ingredients stagnate, the baked cake gets cold and cracked in transport, and when it's iced, it may not be the cake that everyone wanted.

The SNES is an interesting system too in that its earliest models actually supports the component video standard, Y/Pb/Pr. This was about a full decade before any consumer sets had support for Y/Pb/Pr, and only a few professional sets did (speaking as someone with access to a lot of pro monitors.) You can drill a few RCA outs for a component signal out of the earliest SNES systems. That said I do not know how the picture quality would be on these.


154a6f No.13979849

>>13979828

Oh, and I'd like to add that there's actually some minor incompatibilities with the SNES Jr. that the earliest SNES models don't have. The SNES Jr. is practically an "official clone console." A very good one, but there's a few documented undesired results it has.

The snes is one of my personal favorites. I found a not working sega saturn about 2 weeks ago and have been trying to fix it. It works as in it reads the disc, all the inputs are fine, but the system does this weird thing with a noise and pretty much shuts down after 5 minutes of playing it.

Yes, looking at shekels alone, the SD2SNES is probably the better deal. Even better than that would be emulation, which is free and can run games in 16K@480fps. But some people like having a collection. Some would rather look over an entire shelf and pick a game out, rather than stare at a menu of text. It's fucking soulless.


0b83c1 No.13979921

>>13979890

The SD2 is I think 200$? it grants you access to the set chip carts of MegaManX2/3, Pilotwings, Star Fox, Super Mario RPG, Mario Kart and maybe some others. Seeing as those games besides Pilotwings are shit, the Super Everdrive is 80$ SD card included.

I fully agree, I have both a crt, my snes jr and emulation setup on my PC. The whole latency lag input shit is pretty much placebo at this point. Thank god for speedrunning though right! Its one of the only reason the retro shit is still lasting, that an inbred faggots like 3714ff.
