ReRuss Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 So, I went a bit overboard seeking out 5200 for my dad, but in the end he was completely overwhelmed and will have plenty of entertainment. I started with just an in-box 2-port system (Found at Thrillhouse Games in Tulsa, OK, great place), that ended up modded with 4-port bios, s-video/composite mod, and blue LED (Thanks to crossbow) Couple rebuilt controllers, one done with a gold kit by me, other (probably better) done by Crossbow An erroneous CIB teak ball found on eBay Cleaned, polished, lubed, and new ball + fire button mod (Likely switching to blue sanwas) A good chunk of games from various sources Repros from Al here on AA And in case there's something missing to try out Gotta have protection! And of course expanding the cobtrol options Impirt controllers because, why not. Unfortunately, AV mods and this, are a no-go. It's a nice display piece at least. (And luckily the broken switch was easily replace, ty crossbow) And that's everything I think... Not as complete as I would have preferred, but we'll just see what the future holds... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerG Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 That is an incredible set-up. You did it right with the sd multicart and the s-video modded console. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
