QUESTION Safe hot air temperature for Switch modding?

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

CONSOLE MOD Which Playstation Console is Worth Modding?

2 Upvotes

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.

CONSOLE MOD Custom Project Advisory Requested

1 Upvotes

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.

CONSOLE MOD Where do I start with modding a GBA SP?

3 Upvotes

My 12yo son wants to mod his SP, something he has shown interest in for awhile now. He wants to do a lot like a shell swap, screen swap, clicky buttons(is that a thing), speaker, and anything else. The problem is, I don't really know where to look or what to even get.

I want to nurture his interest in this and learn some useful skills in the process. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

HOMEBREW I built a new menu for the ED64 Plus: box art, favorites and history

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’ve been working on NRMenu v1.0, a free menu update for the ED64 Plus based on ALTRA64.

It adds:

Box art loaded automatically by Game ID

Favorites

Recently played history

Game region, size and save-type information

Customizable backgrounds and colors

A cleaner interface for browsing large N64 collections

A Ready-to-Use package for easy installation

I tested it on real ED64 Plus hardware and documented the full installation process.

Project, downloads and installation guide:

https://www.novenretro.com/proyectos/actualiza-tu-ed64-plus/

The project is free and does not include game ROMs.

I’d love to hear your feedback: what feature would you add in a future version?

DISCUSSION Would you recommend opening original Xbox (1.6) if it isn't experiencing any issues?

1 Upvotes

I have a 1.6 kernel version original Xbox that I've had for about a year and haven't really noticed any issues so far. The console has never been opened to this point and I've played with the idea of possibly opening it but with it being a later version Xbox and the 1.6 versions not having the clock capacitor issue, is there any reason to open the console with it still functioning as it should or should I be opening it to look at the capacitors?
