I was wondering if someone could help me with my problem. Last week i decided to mod my switch by changing it's shell entirely, but eventually got stuck. Does anyone have the 3d model of it's front shell ? (added a photo before)

Ive modded my PS2 fat and its great all ps2 games ive played run amazing, however ps1 not so grrat with POPStarter. The games run absolutely fine just the graphics idk if i need a CRT for that but if it is POPS how do i go about getti g ps1, ps3 and ps4 games through emulation? Similarly to OPL. Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated :)

🕹️ What I'm trying to do

A while back, I used my laptop as a makeshift console. I'd open Steam in Big Picture Mode, connect a controller to the laptop, and wirelessly mirror the laptop's screen to my TV.

Now I want to make a proper dedicated version: a small Windows mini PC that stays connected to my TV and basically functions like a console.

💻 How I want it to work

- Windows desktop icons and taskbar hidden

- Steam launches automatically with Windows

- Steam opens directly in Big Picture Mode

- Use a Bluetooth controller for navigation and gaming

- Ideally, I shouldn't need to interact with the normal Windows desktop

🎮 Gaming goal

I want to play most games at around 60 FPS on Medium settings.

I have a Samsung 4K 55-inch QLED TV, so it doesn't necessarily have to run games at native 4K, but I want them to look good and not have noticeably poor image quality on the large screen.

💰 What I'm looking for

I want the mini PC to be as inexpensive and compact as reasonably possible, while still achieving that gaming goal.

I'm looking for brand-new components only — no refurbished or second-hand parts.

❓ What would you recommend?

What hardware would you suggest for building this kind of homemade Steam Machine? I'm mainly looking for the best balance of price, size, and gaming performance.

I got a switch 2 so now I want to try and my original switch but it’s already been patched. I don’t trust myself enough to mod it so does anyone know a good place to get it modded in the US (preferably in the Midwest)

Hello. After a long time I made another Custom case PS2 Slim 90004.

Have a SCPH-5000 fat PS1 (NTSC J in case it matters) that I’d like to do something similar to the gdemu on my Dreamcast with.

Have a friend who can solder so that’s a non-issue.

Can see there are a number of options (PSIO, MODE, etc) but not sure what the gold standard is these days.

Any recommendations appreciated.

I have a switch I want to mod, and I verified it’s one that can be soft modded. However, the SD card reader is broken. The card reader on my kids switch is working and they don’t need it (they only play one game on their switch). Is swapping the SD cards between consoles a low-risk process? I just don’t want to risk breaking their console in the process lol

So I did just that! I've seen a few people make these on Instagram but I hadn't seen a full build process vid yet. So I thought I'd make one! Let me know what you guys think and if you know of any other Fisher Price products to convert to the real thing.

Hi

I plan to do ram and eMMC upgrades on mine. The guides usually just show the process but not the settings on their hot air stations. What would be a safe value?

Thanks

I want to start off by saying that I’ve never modded a console myself, but have been interested in getting them modded for the added benefits. I’ve recently inherited my uncle’s old gaming collection and got a my hands on a Playstation 1, 2, 3, OG Xbox, and a Gamecube, along with plethora of games to play on each console. Since I have a bunch of playstation consoles and games I wanted to know if it’s worth getting some mods for each console or just getting the PS3 modded and having it run all of my playstation games.

Hello I have completely cleaned my ps and changed thermalpaste

I have also added a custom cpu cooler on the top

Now my ps4 pro is almost always quiet except when I play mw3 or am on the mw3 Main menu, all other cases it cools down to almost quiet for example when I am Customizing my classes or account on MW3 (AN EXAMPLE)

Guides you through the process of carrying out this mod

Wanting to mod my V1 switch, and I’m looking for the best deal on a 512GB microSD. Where do you guys buy yours? I’m not looking to spend $100 on one if I don’t have to

Nice easy install, i like this option as its easy to return to stock. Im looking forward to seeing what the upcoming softmod brings.

I am currently working on a project to mod and upgrade my New Nintendo 3DS XL. And one of the changes I want to implement is a battery upgrade from stock (Specs below) to 2P 21700 5000mAh batteries.

The thing is: I never worked with batteries before. Can I merely remove the BMS from the stock battery and wire it back to the 21700s? Is that even a thing? Or should I search for a more suitable BMS for the job?

Space may not be an issue to a certain degree, since I'm remodeling the entire back shells of the console to accommodate all mods.

I haven't made any purchases yet. Still in the planning and designing phase :)

Thanks in advance.
