Can you do a custom Wii or game boy advance that can dock to a tv
I was hoping this wouldn't turn out to be a gambling platform. Sorry pal, you really deserved a better sponsor. Unsubbed with regrets.
Modernize a PS1 or PS3. ps3 is a challenge so i would hope you do the original launch model
You should check out the VM2
deserved a better sponsor :(
Warning: You did not disable the charging circuit when replacing the rechargeable CMOS battery with a “standard watch battery.” It’s not just that the CMOS battery died, it’s that the console wasn’t used regularly to maintain a charge. Of course, many won’t maintain a charge these days either, but the issue now is that the system is going to be dumping charge into a non-rechargeable battery. You can either use a rechargeable coin cell or add a diode to the resistor to disable the charge circuit.
yes, he was already there, and if I remember right is just replace the resistor nearby by a diode and it will not try to charge the battery.
@@marcelofrau8818 Yeah. The diode kinda goes inline with the resistor after you trim the leg off. Super easy.
Was going to comment the same thing. :) Need a Schottky diode on the resistor.
5:06
Double check the choice of CMOS battery. The Dreamcast's soldered-in one is an ML2032, which is a slightly different one to the Sega Saturn's easily replaceable CR2032. Decide for yourself whether sticking a non-rechargeable battery into a circuit that will attempt recharging it is safe.
This. It is very easy to disable the charging circuit with a diode if you want to use standard non-rechargeable 2032. It’s possible that nothing was wrong with the original battery anyway since it’s usually just that Dreamcasts consoles don’t see regular enough use to maintain the charge.
bro, CMOS batteries usually die on old computers and such. This console is 20 years old.@turner9452
And if you'd actually watch the video he said his dreamcast has a problem with date and time. Suggesting a CMOS problem. But hey I guess people don't watch and just complain.
Was gonna comment this until I used my infinite wisdom to look up the comments.
I moded my two dreamcasts, one of them having a dead battery. I'm pretty sure that ML2032 is fine as long as you let your console charge it for an hour or two though they are usually considered dead at about 2.6 volts.
Out of curiosity, would putting a rechargeable LIR2032 battery in instead of a CR2032 be a solution to the problem of CR2032 batteries not being rechargeable?
@@chrisdunning6144 The my are different voltages so I would try to find an ML2032 if I wanted to stick with rechargeables.
Really like the "modern console" series. If you plan on doing more of it, can you do SNES or NES next please?
N64 can "easily" be hacked to have a newer processor, and more ram. Sadly no software out there to take advantage of either mods....
I would recommend ps3. They have ps3 phat, slim and super slim. He should make the ultra slim. No disc drive smaller console foot print, while also using a cech2001 model to take advantage of the modded homebrew. This system can play ps1, ps2, and ps3 while also emulating your console. Already has hdmi, already has usb ports. Is over due for a smaller power supply possibly one that’s in the cord and not in the system.
@@TruthYT00nah use a cecha instead for the ultimate system
I want zac builds and diy perks Collab, both of them do a very clean and precise job on their diy project, and I would love to see them make something grand together....
DIY Perks is dead right. Seems like he no longer makes projects and has gone full on high end rather than the DIY smaller cool projects. Everything is all high end.
A tip for future designs. If you have a fan and right next to the fan you have vents.. the air will circulate from the closest vents and out of the fan exhaust. In your Dreamcast, that means that you are not really circulating air across the entire inside of the case, just around that one side. Which can explain why your power supply was running warm. Which is why in the original case, the side with the fan exhaust did not have any other vents. Great work otherwise, can't wait to see what's next!
really bad sponsor! But really nice video!
🎻
When I hear sponsor I just fast forward thru it. Was it bad?
Only a scumbag takes on gambling sponsors. I am done with this channel.
@@kameljoe21 it is draft kings, a gambling website
Gambling and casino ad :/@@kameljoe21
I love the build and the post mortem analysis that you give if someone were to try and do this on their own. That’s great.
What’s not great is advertising betting. I know you have a business to run, but it just felt kind… I don’t know exactly, but I just felt used
Just my thoughts on it
It's a good thing I have Sponsorblock that bypasses it every time and gives me a green color on the bar to let me know if it's a sponsor or not. I personally don't care if creators need sponsors to support their videos, but I know every single one of their videos that has sponsors in it, I don't bother to buy it nor give the discounts to the creators. If the creator decides to stop making videos, so what, I move on to the next person. It's only when nearly 50/60 percent of content creators/small channels up and vanish that I would start to have a problem with TH-cam. But sadly this is how youtube likes to operate their site, even after 20 years since it's started. Personally, I do think 2005-2015 were the better days of TH-cam before 2016 came in and pretty much ruined what TH-cam used to be and became the monster we all have a hate/love relationship with this website. But pretty much Google buying it out was the start of what TH-cam would end up in the long run up into the present.
So yes, I don't like sponsors either, but you can always mute or skip them however you like, up to you.
I hope DraftKings paid you well for this sponsorship. While this specific app sounded like an American service, Canadian media, especially sports broadcasts is just plagued with these gambling addiction advertisements.
I hope you’re sending Zac money on Patreon to avoid such sponsors…
Yes it is. But it is even worse in the UK
@@cajun4christ there's other sponsers that are less fraught
@@cajun4christNah
Please don't do ads for gambling sites. I love your content but these are predatory
I can't say I'm comfortable with gambling ads in general, but "If you're ... looking for an easy way to have some fun" is a step way too far.
While I don't disagree, it isn't really any more or less predatory than any common video games and their loot boxes, imho.
Gambling ads will be banned eventually, so this video will get blocked.
@@NeverlandSystemZor There is a reason why loot boxes are banned in many countries.
@@i.k.8868 hopefuly not, free speech!!
The DreamCast was ahead of its time, i have many childhood memory with friends an family cause of it.
Really disappointing to see you take a gambling sponsorship. I’m tired of seeing that addictive vice pushed on so many TH-cam channels and every commercial break on television. 1/5 gambling addicts will attempt to take their own life,
Only a scumbag takes on gambling sponsors. I am done with this channel.
Any chance you'd drop this sponsor?
I used to work for gambling companies - they are remorseless in their exploitation of human nature.
I understand the need to earn a living, but please reconsider partnering with these sponsors.
Spot on but it's basically the same as being sponsored by stuff like the FTP mobile game stuff that's even worse since it appeals to a younger audience and it uses the same mechanisms to get you addicted to throwing your money and life away.
not only that but online casinos are notorious for scamming their customers and using gross loopholes. they should just be banned outright imo.
Only a scumbag takes on gambling sponsors. I am done with this channel.
Horrible Sponsor.... gambling? Not worth it.
I can't imagine what the life of a kid is by living at Las Vegas or towns nearby, there's coin gambling machines like everywhere, it's disgusting how they base their lifes on it, it's like they worship the god of luck and gambling, that's sick
True no gambling adds pls
yeah, love Zac's content, I just don't pass casino ads, unsuscribed
@vicenterfrostcl This guy could be sponsored by Vegas hookers and I'd still watch because I'm here for the content, not the sponsors. Maybe if everyone complaining sent him a dollar he'd be a millionaire and wouldn't need sponsors.
Dont want to watch anymore after that. What the hell? Asking in the description do I have gambling problems? No but you ain't helping.
Dude my jaw actually dropped at that sponsor section... poor morals man. "looking for an easy way to have some fun without leaving the house"
I hope you’re sending Zac money on Patreon to avoid such sponsors…
I mean if you want him to keep making videos then he’s gotta do this. You don’t have to use the app nor do you have to listen to the segment. We are all people here just trying to live.
@@caboose6411They're complaining about the choice of sponsor, not the fact that he's accepting a sponsor.
@cajun4christ I like that name by the way. Representing Carencro over here, lol. God bless.
@@cajun4christ F no, I am not sending money to an immoral person like Zac. I'm glad I never subscribed to this a.hole.
A bit disappointed that you accepted an online casino as a sponsor..
never expected you to take up an online casino sponsorship, very disappointed
Gotta agree
Meanwhile you are here watching his content for free...
@@johnwick6831i agree, but, what would the right option be? Between moral and fair monetization?
@@johnwick6831 Not really, it's TH-cam, there are YT ads and I personally pay for premium. It's not that he's got a sponsor/promotion it's the industry. It's about as shady and destructive as accepting Tobacco sponsorship.
@@johnwick6831you aren’t watching it for free, that’s why you get ads or pay for premium
Why Casino…… 😒 Stop doing such sponsorings please. Your Content is great, i realy like it. But Casino Promotion is nothing your Community should come across.
Agree...!!!
Same
These sponsors make it possible for creators to put out content. I watch UFC so I hear about Draft Kings constantly. Not a fan of Draft Kings but I respect the reason for it. This channel is awesome.
@@Peppersfirst I know, but UFC and console Modding are completly different things. Here on TH-cam the Community for console stuff are maybe way younger as the Community for UFC. Younger people shouldn‘t be influenced with gambling on such a channel like this.
Yeah that felt so weird
Uncle from Another World would be incredibly proud. I too was a Saturn and Dreamcast kid! Great video Zac!
I remember the Dreamcast died because EA lead a group of developers into NOT publishing games on this platform after the 2k sports series showed them up so badly!
I LOVED this console.
A lot of third party devs actually pulled out after the Saturn's shadow drop. They promised not to support Sega anymore after that.
Thats why Sega had to build 2K Studios. Because EA wont make sports games for them anymore.
Also: Sega's original graphics chip maker 3DFXreleased to the public they were supplying their chip to Sega. This led to Sega replacing them with the Hitachi chipset that was in the final version of Dreamcast.
Unfortunately, EA was a shareholder in the original chipset manufacturer.
Fucking EA
This is pure nonsense , and how does it have so many upvotes?!!? What happened was this: There were 2 Dreamcast prototypes, one using a 3dfx gpu, the other using nec powervr. The contracts were signed for the 3dfx one , then sega decided to go the power vr route , as usual sega japan wanted the japanese hardware and overuled sega of america.
So 3dfx sued Sega. They settled out of court for millions. Guess who was a part owner of 3d fx at that time? EA.
So EA then said to Sega, ok if you still want our games on your console, we want to be EXCLUSIVE makers of sports games on Dreamcast. But Sega had just bought visual concepts for 30 million to make their own sports games on dc (the 2k/sega sports games), so they said to EA , '' No, But you can be JOINT EXCLUSIVE along with our own first party games.'' EA said no. So Sega said no deal. So no Ea games ended up on Dreamcast.
This is confirmed by Peter Moore in his Dreamcast junkyard video interview and court documents from the 3dfx lawsuit.
Are you for real advertising for a casino? I am kinda disappointed. I liked your videos, and thought you had integrity :/
It doesn’t make his videos any worse. If anything be mad at TH-cam for not paying well. He has to pay for this stuff somehow 🤷♂️
@@caboose6411i know plenty of you tubers that refuse predatory advertisements no matter how desperate they are, you don't have to excuse this.
I don't get why people are freaking out over a sponsor....don't go gamble.... problem solved.....you like watching free videos? Then deal with 30 seconds of sponsor.....
@@bentboybbz Gambling ads should be banned anyway. They are in my country, but it is impossible to police the internet.
@@i.k.8868 It's a product that is being sold, like alcohol cigarettes sugary food fast cars vapes etc... it's advertising, what's wrong with it? If you think that it causes anything you are helping others make excuses for their lack of self control and inability to take responsibility for their own actions.... Children aren't allowed to gamble.... It's adults making their own decisions and then trying to deny responsibility and place blame elsewhere.... Thank you for your response! I hope you are having a great day or night?!
You're very talented and I think your builds are great, but the DraftKings ad is just so off-putting and potentially harmful, even with the "gambling addiction outreach" disclaimer at the end. Please reconsider your sponsorships.
Promoting gambling... really not cool.
Power stone and house of the dead 2 all day! Amazing build! Definitely getting inspired to do wood working thanks to you.
As someone who has worked in an automotive paintshop, I'm glad to see someone doing 3D printing finally realizing how well suited those filler sprays can be!
Just... do tests first, as there exists fillers that can react with plastic and start bubbling, or if it's got a strong hardener even deform the plastic as it heats up, so we were fairly careful with plastic bumpers and such, and sometimes even used a plastic primer of sorts as a in between layer of the plastic and the filler.
Retro fighters did have a black wireless controller. They opted to make it a limited release that you had to preorder thankfully I bought mine and it matches my black dreamcast perfectly
The wireless black controller from Retro Fighters is still very much available. Directly from their site.
@@tubinonyou i hadn't checked since I ordered 🤣
I honestly don’t understand why this failed most of the games are amazing
Piracy was too easy, Sony Won the previous generation by a very large margin and so the new age kids thought Dreamcast will be weak as Saturn was, and Dreamcast mostly sold well in Japan, you could get any western markets at all. With Sony having a build in DVD player and Dreamcast launching the day it was announced, it being actually a bit underpowered, more expensive. It was just waiting to die as Sega got bankrupt from the last system and was putting too much faith on this system and 100 mil on just one clunky but more like boring game named Shenmue
dvd players.
i think that's pretty much the end of it lmao, thanks PS2
(Or maybe Sega's post-saturn reputation had something to do with it too...)
Long story short, people waited for the PS2 instead.
I lost many an hour playing ChuChu Rocket 😂
@@morebasheder same although the GBA port
Would love to see all of the consoles you’ve modernized thus far and how they compare with each other! Perhaps you could do a collection video?
Yeah I'd be interested as well
That was amazing, I really hope you do the revisions you mentioned in your post mortem analysis like the modifications on the VM card and the Led light on the Dreamcast logo and stuff. Really inspiring I wish I knew where to start with all of this.
you know your battery mod is not good because the dreamcast battery is rechargeable and it looks like you replaced by a normal CR2032 which will suffer from overcharge that dreamcast sends to the battery, so you need also to replace some parts of the circuits to not send power anymore to the battery and you can use CR2032 without any risk of damage.
I clicked the thumbnail bc I saw "dreamcast slim" but this is barely thinner then the original profile of the system. very clean and nice looking build though
Finally another Zacbuilds video. Haven't watched it yet but just had to comment to say I feel like I've been waiting years. Your videos are so good, I just can't get enough. Keep up the good work man ❤
Appreciate you waiting! Ran into some big production delays with this video and it took me long than I thought, BUT silver lining, I should be releasing a couple more videos pretty soon after this one.
@@ZacBuilds I appreciate you dude. Your work is very inspiring. I'm glad you take the time to make your videos and designs high quality rather than just chucking them out every week. Hope you've managed to work out all your production issues. ✌🏼
This is an awesome video. Just starting modding my own and the teardown helps out a lot being able to see everything. Theres a lot of good videos, but they dont have as much info packed in like that. And after seeing the finished console, looks like im gonna do a new case at some point. It looks like something that came out current day!
Love what you have done. This has to best dream cast redesign yet.
What I want to see is instead of just shell redesigns, you should trim the boards to recreate actual miniaturized consoles to actually make them modern like with how Bringus Studios TH-cam channel does with Wii and Wii U to actually miniaturized and make them modern.
I'm usually not a fan of the reworked/redesign chassis but this one is ace! Fantastic job!
Your presentation skills are fantastic and the results never cease to amaze me. I don't know much about a lot of the things you talk about and the finer details go way over my head as a result but your videos are so fascinating to watch nonetheless. It makes me want to learn, maybe I'll get into it one day when I have the time and money. Thank you for making these videos!
Thank you for watching! I couldnt do these projects without you and the rest of my audience. It's the only I can make dedicating hundreds of hours to these projects economically viable.
I did not know that Tony Romo was so handy!
Dude, I wouldn't imagine you advertising a online casino, your subscribers normally don't come from this area, I was disappointed
I hope you’re sending Zac money on Patreon to avoid such sponsors…
Did you enjoy this free content? The advert paid for it. Be grateful. No hate
Money is money.
Adguard, sponsorblock, and controlD
Zero problem
Oh no he’s a normal person and needs money to survive. Doesn’t matter what your ethics are, if you need money to survive and a company will send you a ton to simply mention them. Oh and you can skip the sponsored section.
I do love the wood accents, on most projects, but in this instance, with the Retro Fighters controller being gray, I think those accent panels would've looked better in PLA and a color matching the controller.
Please keep doing these types of videos. I found your channel last week and this stuff is so interesting. I look forward to new videos anytime I open TH-cam.
You took a sponsorship from Draft Kings?! I get that you need to make money, but shouldn't you have a disclaimer or something to warn kids away?
Gambling sponsor?? Really?
Very disappointed with this
Yeah... it definitely left me feeling a bit iffy. "Influencer" sponsers rely on you trusting the person, and possibly using that trust to promote possible life changing addictions really rubbed me the wrong way. I recognise the need for sponsorship, but this has really dwindled my trust
@boisephine9474 there is no point putting in a gambling aware disclaimer either.
So yeah, I just stopped watching immediately and hit the unsubscribe button.
Seen too many people fall to the evils of gambling.
@@superamario6464that’s a bit dumb and an over reaction
@caboose6411 you have your opinion and I think that's a croc of shit. Sod off if you can't handle it
@@caboose6411 dumb? That's your opinion and you know what you can do with that.
I have been enamored with your builds since discovering your channel! I really appreciate all your uploads and the hard work along with filming you put into each video! Keep up the excellent work sir!
I really enjoy the build and all the love you put into this mod, my only suggestion is taking care of your health and have a better solution for painting, try to do it in open air or forced air filter mini room, the chemicals in these tubes are quite toxic. take care :)
I smell a PCB way sponsorship with their 3d printing services in the future
They sponsored my last video! Love their service
IS THAT A GAMBLING AD? HOLY SHIT I THOUGHT THIS VIDEO COULDN'T GET WORSE THAN THE THUMBNAIL IMPLIED.
LMAO
So flippin' cool, Zac! I didn't understand any of it except for the walnut cameo, but loved watching you rebuild this system from the ground up.
Haha thanks Keith! I know it's not exactly a traditional wood working project but I can't help but incorporate a little walnut here and there 😉
Great work, you did every of the best hardware mods. 👏👏👏
Not cool Zac, Not cool. Just my opinion, of course.
(The sponsor ou chose to work with, not the project)
you get a downvote for advertising predatory gambling scams
This is amazing. Top notch work!!!
When doing fine-pitch soldering, I would not suggest, as is stated in the video, keep working the solder on the contacts over and over, especially if you are relatively new to soldering.
Some chips may take too much heat and fail quite easily. However, the movement and timing shown in the video is totally fine. Relatively quick sweeping motions - and keep that chip as cool as possible.
Same goes for all soldering with chips.
A gambling ad, seriously? I would have prefered 10 Raid Shadow Legends sponsors than a single gambling ad
Casino ad 👎👎👎
Great updates, I've been modding my Dreamcast lately too. Was hoping you were going to do an internal blueretro mod on yours, because I can't find any videos of that installation lol
Gorgeous console design! I was alarmed seeing replacing the rechargeable ML2032 with a CR2032 though, but since others pointed that out already I will leave it at that. The wooden panels are so so pretty! Amazing work.
I'm a big Dreamcast fan and this update was fascinating! Great job...
But I will say your choice of sponsor in this one isn't that cool. Here in the UK, online betting has infiltrated every level of professional sports and advertising and has created whole generations of new gambling addicts. They are not an ethical industry.
Was invested until you started advertising a casino app. Nothing like advertising an addiction to put me off a content creator.
Man I have seen your n64,ps2 and now the dreamcast...I love these kind of videos....great job.....I personally have been doing a discless original xbox into a asus rog z11 micro atx pc case...tomorrow the last pieces of the controller port 3 and 4 will be in tomorrow completing the mod I started last year.....but I highly enjoy your videos...can't wait to see more
I’ve been waiting for another video! Thank you this was awesome. I wasn’t a Dreamcast kid but I def appreciate it.
To anyone complaining about the ad, pay him then? They keep the channel going and help pay for all of his hard work.
Wow! Taking gambling sponsor money. Integrity out the window.
I hope you’re sending Zac money on Patreon…
I hope you’re sending Zac money on Patreon to avoid such sponsors…
@@cajun4christ ad hominem fallacy - just because he may not be sending zac money on patreon disqualifies his legitimate critique of partnering with gambling sponsors?
this was a cool project but a gambling sponsor really ruins it for me. I hope this is a one-off mistake, because otherwise I am not coming back
Would love to see the case white like the original and you using the Dreamconn+ project for the controllers.
Also there's a limited black version of the remote controller from that brand, at least it's available in the UK.
Dude, please stop, you make the most amazing high class versions of these classics. I love this build. Would love to see a Dreamcast gray version.
sad you have to advertise casinos you lost a subscriber
It's hard to find sponsors when you have 300k subs. Unless u wanna see another raid shadow legends ad id recommend just shhh
Shut up
I get you are paying bills. But gambling as a sponsor feels bad man :/
Yeah, like, I'm a minor and I feel super uncomfortable with things like that. I keep seeing people my age and even under cry over losing money from gambling at school after saying it's "easy money" (this actually happened), and if that happens just in my school in a third-world country I can't begin to imagine outside of here. Gambling ads are predatory as hell and should be kept in their corner.
Dude, what are the chances!? I been really into my Dreamcast lately, and I even got a GDEMU on the way! I love this channel!
I loved playing Nights so much on the Dreamcast as well as some PSO. Good times! I wish I had a system to do this with. Love the quality of the picture and a very neat downsizing. The wireless controller with the VMU is neat.
Why a casino maan tf😂😂😂
Please don't
Stopped watching as soon as the online gambling ad came up. Shame, looks like a cool project
It’s so cool that you do these things it must take a lot hard work and patience.
Wow! Simply fantastic. I have my old Dreamcast in the garage and I would love to be able to upgrade it. I just don't have your tools (or expertise). My favorite games were Jet Grind Radio and Phantasy Star Online.
I've just come across your channel and found it pretty cool - but the gambling ad is reason enough for me to not watch your content.
The DraftKings sponsorship is really disappointing, not going to lie.
Cry
i love these videos so much! It is so cool to see how fast technology is changing!
This is truly the most top tier custom dreamcast I have seen. I grew up modding dreamcast and started a few of the mods back in the day so seeing this was such a treat. Thanks for keeping the dream alive!
What a terrible sponsor
Gambling sponsorship. Unsubbed.
That was amazing!
Some people say the Dream is over but the retro community is always growing. I still believe we will have a new Dreamcast, an upgrade or even Dreamcast 2.
Could fix a lot of the 3D print-yness of the 3D prints by having the slicer set to iron flat surfaces.
It really looks awsome! :D I always loved the Dreamcast, I still remember standing in line in 99 to get my one. The same thing you said about the "fotorealastic grafics" I told back then when I played SF2 on the SNES in 93 for the first time. I was so impressed and convinced that it ever could become better then this ;DD
I love your work so much!! Awesome project ideas, music, editing, composition, etc. Thank you very much.
Dreamcast rocks!! Sonic Adventures was the first game I played on it, great game. Sega GT was EPIC!!
I have to say, you had me at Dreamcast. One of my all time favorite systems! The only thing I could think when watching this was that I wished I somehow saved your life and you said "What can I do for you, name it!" and I'd say "Send me that Dreamcast!!!!" Awesome stuff! 🙂
I just got back from basic training and the dream cast was my gift to myself. It had so many great games.
I'll send you out a wind breaker!
Very nice! As the owner of two Dreamcasts, this video has me dreaming...
The Striker DC controller needs to have a slot for a VMU.
The swirl in the DC logo could be translucent white, and have RGB lighting behind it, so you can choose which colours you want it to be, or even animated.
My dreamcast survived over the years and I never had any problems with it. I found it at my mom's house and brought it home to add to my old games in my garage/game room. Then one day my cat somehow opened it and puked into the laser area. RIP. 😢
Retrotink 4k would make this thing look amazing - potentially either through your HDMI port or the OG analog outputs.
I could never get bored of these videos
i think it would be really cool to see you make a modern version of the gameboy color, os another handheld. im sure you can do some great things to enhance their audio. i think the plastic + wood case would look sick for a handheld aswell!
I was thinking the same thing 😉 if I used a game boy sp as the base I could have GB, GBC and GBA all in one console
Was a weird dreamcast family over here. My older brother has always been into tech and quickly was burning emulators and roms onto disks for the dreamcast. My friends had no idea what was going on but we could summon games from other consoles on our little dreamcast. Great memories.
I do have a minor gripe at the lack of the "GT 90" signature look the Dreamcast had... This version just looks like a Minisforum PC with a logo on top. I'd sooner think it to be an emulator box than an actual DC mod... But it's amazing regardless.🤣 Just like my gripe against the PS2 mod, I think a "modern revision" should have at least a minor homage to the original. It's a rebirth for those who had it, to revisit the past in a new and enhanced light!
I LOVED the idea of LED lights for the logo. That was the one thing I was going to recommend but you got out ahead.👍 It's a little hard to see the text up against that wood color. A lighter wood would definitely enhance it in my opinion.
I'd say the PSU and disc bypass mods are near necessities with how fragile those games were and how relatively easy those mods are overall. (Really though, those discs would give out with the slightest nick or abrasion.😞) I'd be fine with the lesser HDMI adapter quality to save me that incredible amount of precision work. It's still better than composite.👍
Sure wish I had the eyes and talent to mod my first day Dreamcast that I still own. Also own a first day Saturn. You video was amazing. Maybe after cataract surgery I could attempt it. Keep up the great work from a new subscriber. 🖖🏼
Put a GDemu in my dreamcast a few years ago and did some tweaking to the internals to increase airflow. Still an awesome piece of kit with a 128GB microsd card in it.
What a cool video! So amazing all the builds you made. Hi from Ecuador
Thank you! Really appreciate the kind words!
Man, watching you using those wires and quality equipment is just *cheff kiss*
That looks awesome, well done
I love your builds, and will be doing a lot of these after I move in a few weeks...
However, printing, even with all the consumables and time, is WAAAAAAAAAY cheaper than getting it machined out of a block of aluminum.
Assuming that case is around 8" square, I'd estimate that to be 4-5 setups on a 3-axis, or 2 set ups with a 5-axis. I'd also estimate around 5 hours of machine time, at around $100-200 / hr, and probably 2-3 hours of programming time at around $100~/hr, if you can even find a shop to do a 1 off project like that. Most machine shops hate doing 1 offs because the initial time investment is significant. They might scrap 3-4 parts before they get the program right and the machine settings right, only to make 1 finished part for you.
That said, you could probably do quite a bit with a bunch of flat sheets and laser cutting all of it, then bending or pressing it with 3D printed molds.
I was more referring to having it professionally 3d printed being cheaper. To have it CNC'd would definitely be more expensive, but you should check out some of the services by companies like PCBWay, you'd be surprised how cheap it can be. Also, it depends how much you value your own time 😉
You might be on to something with using flat sheets and just shaping them, but it might actually be easier to make a mini-forge and melt scrap aluminum and pour it into a mold. Then you could do some finishing work on the shape after pulling it out, anodize it while you're at it. Might make for a fun project for version two if he sees this.
@@ZacBuilds Is that a hint you're picking up PCBWay as a sponsor coming up soon? ;)
And yea, I used to work at a machine shop and saw a lot of the work coming out of some shops in China, very hit and miss, but also took 4-8 weeks sometimes for delivery. So..... I do agree with you on how we should value our time. ^^
All that said, you could do a lot of the machining on your CNC and then just TIG it all together afterwards...
@@ZacBuilds Why are you an immoral person, Zac?
Probably your best looking project yet! Nice job man!
Wow. Im amazed at this incredible outcome!
However since im a little too young to relate to the nostalgia of the early playstations, and dreamcasts, i have only played the Nintendo wii. And therefore I would love to see a modernized nintendo wii
Whatever you do. Keep up the great work!
as a fellow torontonian i just wanna say im so glad i found you're channel, these videos are great man!
Heck ya man! Appreciate the support. If you see me out on the street dont hesitate to say hi :)
