My tumblr is mostly about things that are pleasing to me aesthetically, but occasionally it gets a little music. Lots of blade runner/akira/ghost in the shell type o' feels.

Ha, I hadn't realized that you were thatbudakguy, I've been following you for a while

Here's mine anyway

Is this a thing? Like, "here's all the crap I've got in my trunk" sale?

People bring stuff they don't want in their car, and set up little tables, and sell stuff.

Carboot sale = swap meet = flea market

Not sure if this is a massivley good tihng to happen to me, as I'm no good with synth prices and the like, but I got a PSS-680 (FM synth from 1988) for free off of a friend of mine last night.

At the weekend, I'll have a scout around my local game market thing, and see if I can pick any of these up for you. To be honest, there are a few of them that I'm after as well.

Got a question about the Wild Chip format, could it be a chip song, but include a played instrument?

The only backlight I have is a yellow non-inverted, which I'm pretty fond of. I don't understand how anyone could use any colour of inverted backlight, it hurts my eyes/

I keep on getting CGB for less than £1 any time I go to a car boot sale.

Would you mind putting up a tutorial kinda thing for this? I want to try this for myself, and I also want to see if it's possible to fit it in a PAL SGB.

It would be possible to make a multirom with these on it, depending on the size. Pokemon is what, 16mb?

Very very interested in mother 3 repros.

If btches of 5 are the smallest you can get, then I'm going to get a batch of 5 with the mother 3 translation on, I'm also going to get another batch with the mother 1+2 rom translation on.

i just contacted a supplier from alibaba, and they say they can put other roms on the carts, for $3 per cartridge big_smile
kitsch, stock those maybe? tongue
i think i will try to order 5 carts with different programs on them (or all the same, dunno) to test it. 5 pieces is the smallest moq i could find.

do you think it would be morally ok to get lsdj via goomba on them if you own lsdj?

Moral? Yeah, you payed for LSDJ. The only problem you might have is that you're sending the rom to another person, meaning that you could basically give them a free copy of LSDJ. Although it's unlikely that they'll do anything with it, they could start selling LSDJ gba carts.

Also, could you post a link to the one who's offering to put other roms on? I might get a small batch of gba carts with the Mother 3 translation on it.

I didn't have time to check the tutorial before it got taken down, and I understand currently there is an issue with diodes. My question is, if I was able to scavenge an NES controller socket from the console myself, would I be able to plug the NES controller into that, instead of having wires running everywhere?

Almost certainly no. Even if you could, they're made very spotty. Saves erase all the time.

That site is insane though. I mean you can get a gba supercard sd for like $20!?!?!? What??? Is this real?

Saves on the bootleg carts that I've had only  get erased in [insert DS model that can play gba games here] or, if you have a pokemon hack (e.g. quartz) the save gets wiped if you try and import your pokemon into pokemon colosseum.

It's only likely to blow up in your hands if you do the bending incorrectly yo.

DMGs are around £20, so over 20 euros
CGBs are a lot less, around £8 I'd say just over 10 euros
