Relaxing today with the excellent Open Matte 4:3 LaserDisc of Sam Raimi's Darkman
Running the LaserDisc composite video through an outboard 3D Comb Filter, to the SVideo input of the Sony PVM 2530, which can fully resolve the detail of LaserDisc. Pushing the stereo speakers back to form an equilateral triangle with the chair while maintaining a 30° field of view with the CRT. This is as good as I can get 😅
The only thing left is to settle on a more permanent spot in the basement with a rug and a more comfortable chair.

Psycho Fox - SMS. Jugabilidad algo complicada al principio pero una vez que le agarras el ritmo es increíblemente satisfactorio. 🔥

I have a new CRT DEEP DIVE ready for everyone. It's a comparison of three of the more common NTSC Sony Trinitrons from the early 2000s, the FS100, FS120 & FV300. I will show some of the tricks I have learned to get these TVs looking and performing their best. Check it out: youtu.be/PHs1EvRadMk?si…

@KennyLauderdal3 Damn, somebody needs a colorimeter🤣. White point is all over the place

When you turn 30 you start building Tube TV Walls so you can watch Gunsmith Cats like this.

Para este punto, pienso que el que "Ashita no Joe" tuviese poca animación (dígase, movimiento) por su bajo presupuesto, resulta irrelevante. Las cosas que llegaron a lograr visualmente tanto Makura Saki como Yoshio Takeuchi hacen de éste un trabajo técnico más que sobresaliente.

@retrotink posted a Tink5X firmware that blows away earlier work & brings the 5 year old scaler up to par with the Tink4K.
Pictured on my ultra cheap Samsung 4K TV next to my 14” PVM.
The Tink5X delivers insane performance on just a crappy LCD.
Thanks @retrorgb for the posts.

@MoonPieDreams @NostalgiaPro Yeah pretty predictable. Not a single japanese exclusive. I mean all these games were pretty good sellers back in the day with good reviews so I don't see the 🤯

@NostalgiaPro This list was actually pretty safe and predictable. 😅 Was expecting stuff like Wild 9, Tail Concerto, Harmful Park, Tobal 2, Incredible Crisis...
English
Most people rank PS1 games based on pure, unearned nostalgia, pristine jewel case counts, or 30 year old review scores from magazines that don't hold up today.
They build these safe, predictable top 10 lists that look exactly the same because they are afraid to challenge the established consensus.
This list is going to completely break the brains of traditional purists who think critical acclaim equals elite design, but it is the only accurate evaluation of what actually made this hardware legendary.

@usa_retro @Cruzlink2 Seems that you forgot to add a jumper to have stereo sound while using RGB, as it is, you will need to add a dummy plug in order to enable stereo

CRT RGB Mux Mod Thread - Sony KV 27FV310
- This is the process to install a Sunthar RGB Mux kit with Scart. Please note that working on a CRTs is dangerous. Let's dive into this installation. 📺🧵

@Cornyzuka I really love this game. Played the hell out of it back in 2001

@sonicgdavies nope. Not even close to Tengai Makyo IV FMV quality which is far superior to anything i've seen on PS1
English
Think the Sega Saturn couldn't handle top-quality FMV right up there with the PS1, think again. Desire had top quality fullscreen FMV. #SEGA #SegaSaturn

@felipebaguena Sí, igual ayuda si tu app de cámara en el teléfono tiene modo "pro" o manual. Ahí puedes hacer ese ajuste y bajar el ISO a menos de 800 (dependiendo de la luz de ambiente en donde te encuentres)

@elbuensaul Nunca me he aclarado para grabar el CRT, muchas gracias! pruebo ❤️

@khmr33 @usa_retro Good luck with this one.
By default check every voltage regulator on D and D1 boards which fail a lot.
Also the connection between those boards fails so check continuity.

I'm working on resurrecting a Sony PVM 20L5 that was serviced by someone who clearly doesn't know how to solder. Mangled pads, too much solder, clearly no flux used. I pulled C662 which is supposed to be 3.3uf 50V and someone had put 33uf 50V in there... I'm not 100% sure what the consequences were hopefully nothing serious.

@zackreese correction: surprise launched the Sega Saturn for the "US" market
English
Happy 31st anniversary to that press conference during E3 1995 where SEGA surprise launched the Sega Saturn for the Western market that very same day.

@Caution_138 As with any electronic device. There's more stress in a power cycle than leaving the device on.

So, I left the MiSTer on at the shop last night, it’s been running for 2 days straight on Super Atract Mode, and didn’t crash. This thing has been kicking ass for 6 years straight. What a machine.

Rewatching it last year having seen a lot of 70s mecha anime Gundam really does feel special. In fact what stood out most on this rewatch were the elements that felt too "70s" like the theme song, the white base having a pirate ship wheel, Zabi family's evil castle.

I don’t know much about anime that came before it, but Gundam is more advanced than one might expect for 1979. The way it handles character development ages very well. It deals with some serious and heavy subjects, and it makes you feel. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s influenced reaches past just mecha, and it extends to many anime and manga that come after. I imagine it’s not the first like this, but I can certainly say it was ahead of it’s time.

@EmperadorG20 Pobres...
La segunda película es una obra de arte pero la serie en realidad tienen muchos problemas, por algo la cancelaron.

@MoonPieDreams @JackyOfDiamonds The thing is "US gaming market"
What most people needs to realize, is how many of those games were actually sold in LATAM as well which has different tastes in games. Just look how many copies ISS sold, I doubt those were inside the US maket. Unfortunately there are no records.
English
@JackyOfDiamonds I think a lot of hardcore Saturn fans/gamers need to realize what the US gaming market was at the time. Madden NFL is one of Saturn's best sellers. Bringing over Super Robot Wars wasn't going to save the Saturn in North America, sorry to say. 😅
English
Los norteamericanos tienen el problema de creer que el mundo de los videojuegos gira a su alrededor sin pararse a pensar en que prácticamente todas las consolas que disfrutaron en su vida y la gran mayoría de juegos que valen la pena vienen de Japón

Saturn fans historically claim it failed commercially in the West due to not enough Japanese games being localized, but it's not like Princess Crown was going to sell systems in the U.S. Let's be real. Great game, but it wasn't the hot 3D stuff gamers desired at the time.
