Everything looks pretty good. Except the top screen, which is ridden with scratches :( That won't sell well.

R4 vs. CDSE Debates

Sat Jul 26 2008, 08:55PM by LocalToast

Complete List of Debates

I noticed a lot of people having arguments about why the R4 is better than the CycloDS. But when asked to civilly debate the matter, they come up with interesting responses:

LocalToast What makes the R4 better than the CycloDS?
Cute_Evil_Pichu cycloits better
LocalToast Case closed.
Cute_Evil_Pichu cyclo sucks case close
LocalToast I said civilly debate.
LocalToast Does the R4 support SDHC?
Cute_Evil_Pichu r4 rules case close
LocalToast Does it have Realtime Save?
LocalToast Does it have GBA ROM booting from the menu?
LocalToast Does it have soft-reset in homebrew?
LocalToast Does it have slow motion?
Cute_Evil_Pichu yes
Cute_Evil_Pichu yes
LocalToast Wrong.
Cute_Evil_Pichu yes
LocalToast Where are your facts?
Cute_Evil_Pichu i have
Cute_Evil_Pichu it
LocalToast I don't care if you have it, I want to see somewhere on the internet where the features are listed. Because last time I checked (today), none of those features are on the R4 DS website.
Cute_Evil_Pichu you cant play some games on cyclods
LocalToast Such as?
Cute_Evil_Pichu ff4
Cute_Evil_Pichu etc
LocalToast What do you mean, "etc" you only listed one game <_<
Cute_Evil_Pichu everything
LocalToast So you're saying all games do not work with the CycloDS?
Cute_Evil_Pichu yes
=-= Cute_Evil_Pichu is now known as nic
LocalToast Wow.

DS Repair Parts ordered!

Sun Jul 20 2008, 08:40PM by LocalToast

I finally got around to ordering repair parts for my DS. This includes:

- Magnetized Triwing/Cross head screwdrivers
- Complete soldering/desoldering kit (iron, 2x solder rolls, 2x desoldering braids, extra iron tip)
- Full DS replacement case (a sweet Nintendo World custom case!!)
- Replacement L+R buttons
- Replacement Power switch
- Replacement DS Lite Top Screen

I'll post pictures of all of the stuff I'm getting. This all cost me about $92 dollars, which I think is reasonable for restoring two DS Lites back to peak condition! I can probably sell one on eBay and make more than I paid for supplies. Plus, the soldering equipment can be used over and over again.

I ordered the soldering supplies from Apogeekits.com, and all of the DS parts from DealExtreme, except for the power switch ($4 on eBay). The DS stuff is coming in from Hong Kong, so I'll be waiting a while.

Oh, and my new DS from Nintendo is coming in the mail sometime soon this week, and also my broken 360! (I'll have a total of 4 DSs by the end of summer)

Metroid Prime Hunters WALL OF SHAME

Wed Jul 09 2008, 03:11PM by LocalToast

I'm making a new page, the Metroid Prime Hunters Wall of Shame.

It's a list of cheaters that I have played. Their names are bolded and underlined, with an icon of the Hunter they used. Under that is the cheat they used. Let me know if you play any cheaters (only if they use codes, glitches/disconnectors don't really count, unfortunately), their exact name, hunter, and cheat.

Last night I had a dream that I posted a witty comment on Digg that had a +143 rating. I was happy.

In other news, I'm saving up to build a computer. Here's a rough list of stuff I'm looking at.

I broke my DS Lite.

Never mind, I got another Lite

Wed May 21 2008, 11:40AM by LocalToast

Probably 2 people at most read my last post about needing a DS Lite. Well I found one, so don't bother. It's Coral Pink, with the broken top screen. I paid about $59 for it, which is a steal. If need be I can replace the top screen for about $17. Much better than buying a Refurbished model from Gamestop *shudder*.

Anyway, now that I have you attention, I'd like you to stop by AcidMods. They're incredibly helpful with not only repairs, but awesome mods for the DS, such as custom cases, LEDs, Analog Sticks (still under development), and they also have help for just about every other current system. So yeah.

Looking to buy Used DS Lite - Any Condition

Sun May 18 2008, 05:02PM by LocalToast

If you have a used intact DS Lite, I would like to buy it. I'm looking to mod one, and don't want to buy a new one or mod my old one. As long as everything works, I will buy it from you. I'm looking to buy one at around $70, but not any higher than $99.

Again, everything should work. I don't care for case condition as I will be using a new one anyway. Broken buttons (buttons that do not register) aren't okay, though. (So no broken shoulder buttons or any for that matter). Also, the touch screen and top screen must be in good usable condition, excluding dead pixels.

Leave a comment if you're interested.

Update: May 1, 2008

Thu May 01 2008, 06:08PM by LocalToast

Not much has been going on lately, but we've got 2 new members as of late! Woot!

Anyway, "Hot Wheels: Beat That" also has some .bik animation files in it (much like Transformers), so that opens some new grounds for videos. But not really, considering the limited capabilities of it...

Oh, and the CycloDS is no longer for sale. I already sold it.
