Thought I would share my retro consoles that I've modded.
My luck is that the SNES I got like new for $25, then swapped out the case for the clear plastic due to the yellowing. Was gonna deyellow it, but ended up giving it to someone whose casing was fairly demolished but worked so they could get that in working order. Would love to be able to replace the power and reset buttons with aluminum ones if that was even a possibility.
The upper right console was sold for parts due to being water damaged and I got it to work again after hitting it with white vinegar then 90% isopropyl alcohol and changing the battery connections
Upper right, worked just fine, but the case needs to be swapped as the soft plastic is not allowing all of the screws to take hold.
what really fucking bothers me in conversations about racism and saying that some work has racist elements people always counter with "I don't think the author had deliberate racist ideology in mind" cause it's like that doesn't fucking matter. it doesn't have to be deliberate to be racist. most people don't go hee hee hoo hoo I'm gonna put racist things in this. everyone was raised in a racist society and covert racism exists and yes needs to be examined in ourselves and everywhere and yes even in works you like author "deliberate" intent or no
my sibling just got a positive COVID-19 test back the other day. they have already been out for a week from work, and are trying to be safe and remain home for another week
that being said, that’s half a month of income lost for them. and seeing how we live in California in a fairly large and expensive city, that makes a massive impact on income and housing stability. so i am going to be opening emergency commissions myself to help make up for their loss

I leaned into some surfer rock vibes with a little bit of flamenco before hip hop drums. And an old timey piano.
It's a weird blend, but it kind of fits Queen's theme.
Still a work in progress. I still need to stitch together the video to show how The Cliffs is in Big Shot, but I think I'll get that vid uploaded at the same time when I do the vid for this.
I had mentioned it befor, but I wasn't prepared for the many leitmotifs were crammed into this boss battle.
The bits of Death by Glamour, Bit Crusher, Spear of Justice/The Power of NEO, The Cliffs, and World Revolving. And Spamton's theme.
It all just makes me wonder what's in store.
So I was looking over Big Shot to try my hand at a remix, and I was not prepared for the possibility of being able to make the focus on Undyne’s theme with how much was in there.
I’ve surprised how many leitmotifs were crammed into this MIDI I was working off of from VGMusic.
You got bits of Death by Glamour, Bit Crusher, Spear of Justice, The Cliffs, and World Revolving.
...Which reminds me, I still need to kick Jevil’s ass
