Well, considering the tech back in 2000 I’d say it’s gonna be really difficult to find parts

or an xbox 360. Oh and i still have a perfect kinect.
@@RS-ko9fx A kinect isn't something you should be flexing
@@chickenwarriorr why ? it is one of the most revolutionary pieces of gaming
@@RS-ko9fx But theres nothing good to play on it and it only exists becasue of the wii what am I gonna do buy it for just dance or a workout game?
@@chickenwarriorr because it is really special to me ! i played the kniect with my friends all the time and yes there were fun games like kinect sports and also third party games like a harry potter game i have. And guess why the move exists ? Because the kinect existed lolz.
Me and my brother had the 3DTV, and to me the absolute best feature was playing split screen games on it. One person would see one image, and the person with the glasses would see another. It made split screen games so much better
Out of curiosity was the screen vibrating on the camera caused by the camera catching the spliced images going back and forth- or would you normally see that in person too? It was kinda like spinning around in a circle and trying to get your bearings but on the screen.
Alternatively, I prefer the Samsung 75 inch Smart tele I got in my home theatre because I love the idea of not having to mess around with the HDR settings!

Wonder why he stopped using that intro
@@K1NGRaj very, veryyy different. Completely different vibes
Hey Austin this is guys.
The PlayStation 3 3-D display basically had a huge flaw its flaw was a faulty firmware that prevented the display from turning on if your display blinks red or just blinks blue with no picture on the screen you need to replace the onboard CMOS chip with the replacement repair kit CMOS chip this requires micro soldering in order to fix the display and fix it permanently it was an issue because Sharp made the display and the display has a cheap ass Firmware on it that prevented the display using its full functionality this is why they recommend replacing the firmware chip and going from the consumer chip which is a pile of junk to a non-consumer chip which is the professional CMOS chip for that display that’s why you now have CMOS repair kits for this display
You need the PS3 3D TV for the PS3 to do 3d gaming
ok he used the 3d display if I was actually watching it I would of known so most don't work then that's too bad
Mine still works after ten years perfectly but I really don't use the monitor anymore
@@XWXS2 If it works reply to this message and we'll work something out
@@BloodsCaress how? Haha
Have you considered covering Louis Rossman's right to repair movement? It's a great cause and he'd be happy to collab.
the most big youtubers the better
Most people rsther go to pros
@@michaelmayers3622 Right to repair isn't just, or even mainly for, people doing their own repairs. It's mainly for the repair shops who can do component level repair on electronics provided they have access to the parts required. They can fix things that the manufacturer will just tell you to buy a new device if they go bad. Should you have to take your car to the dealer every time you need your oil changed? No, you can go to your local mechanic. The repair stores that exist now have to resort to leaks to get schematics and either back alley connections to obtain parts or scavenging them from parts devices. The pro's need right to repair.
YES
How come you're volunteering Louis to collab? He's a busy dude
To note: There were backwards compatible 80 GB PS3's that shipped with a Dualshock 3. FOr example, the MGS4 Kit in the US did so. the way to tell the difference is the 2 vs 4 USB ports on the front, and whether or not there is a card reader in the system. just above the usb ports on the thick part, that would flip up to reveal a card reader on backwards compatible PS3's.
Yes

The fat PS3 is still my fav system! PS1 + PS2 + PS3, free online with DVD & Blu-Ray player all in one! ✨
Yu-Gi-Oh fusion card moment
I love my fat ps3, its one of the last fat revisions so no native ps2 support, but it works wonderfully, got it 2017 for 35 bucks on ebay, had all cables, no controller and minimal scuffing, worst part was the dust. But the fat ps3s are also the only models where the whole range is full cfw compatible
The have a problem with a few of the capacitors on the motherboard that go bad and brick the system after a while though. But if you have a backward compatible PS3 and a PS5 you can play every playstation game released with only two consoles. (PS3 can play playstation 1, 2 and 3 games. PS5 can play playstation 1, 4 and 5 games)
Well except for psp and ps vita games
@@urgay1992 You are right. This is the ultimate PlayStation set up! All 5 generations in 2 systems!
What I always loved about the PS 3D Display is that when you played 2-player split-screen in supported games, each player could have their own perspectives fully taking up the screen when each player wears a pair of the 3D glasses. The way I understood it was that it would utilize the high refresh rate to flip between each viewpoint very fast while making sure that each person only sees their own screen.
I saw a demo of it in my local EB Games (French-Canadian GameStop) back in 2011. My 15-year-old self thought it was witchcraft.
The 360 had great 3D too. I used it on a Panasonic Plasma and it was awesome. I miss they no longer make 3D games. More interested in that than VR.
We used to have EB games in the USA too lol
@@DEVILTAZ35Man 3D is cool but moreso than VR? You're just goofy

If I remember correctly, the backwards compatible PS3s always had a chrome trim, while the later PS3/PS1-only models had the painted silver trim. That’s how I usually gauge them when I peruse the online marketplace for them.

You can even play wireless with the dualsense. Just pair it via bluetooth and it should work fine. Works with the dualshock 4 as well
This video didn't age well right off the bat... the store is going to continue to exist for the foreseeable future.
I think he made the video before they announced it and he released it anyways

OK Austin let me explain the max size you can go on a PlayStation 3 is a 1 TB hard drive it cannot exceed 1 TB which means you cannot use a 1.2 TB or a 1.3 TB it Hass to be a 1 TB or else you will not be playing Blu-ray movies it basically prevents you from returning to the main menu in your Blu-ray movies when your movie finishes when your movie finishes and it’s supposed to return Back to the main menu it doesn’t go back to the main menu it freezes this is because of the hard drive size being locked to 1 TB only
Soo True Bruh
BS. It can take a 2 TB drive
PS3 can support up to 2TB since that is the limitation of the MBR partition layout. Since it doesn't support GPT, this should also apply to external HDDs too.
@@Redrum_Samm No it can take a 2 TB however you will lose Blu-ray playback meaning you cannot play movies what will happen is when you were done watching your movie at the end of the movie the Blu-ray disc will try to return to the main menu for the movie and it will freeze because the hard drive will cause a boot loop it’s an issue that exists within the operating system on the PS3 so if you remember not to allow your Blu-ray disc to return to the main menu after you’re done playing you will be fine But this video was talking about building the ultimate PS3 which means that you would need Blu-ray playback so a 1 TB would be the best
@@haydenw8691 again it’s not what you think it’s the playback that’s the problem if you are playing Blu-ray movies on the PS3 And you allow the entire movie to play including ending credits and then the disk decides to go back to the main menu after the credits have run the disk will freeze on the main menu it’s an issue with DVD movie and Blu-ray movie playback it’s always been there it’s always been in the console if you exceed a 1 TB hard drive you will have that bug Remember he was building the ultimate PS3 which means I would assume he would want Blu-ray playback to be able to enjoy watching movies as well as MPEG-4 playback is why he was using the external hard drive

the lost credit card is the cherry on top of this hilarious video and thanks for the laugh and the nostalgia
This is awesome! As someone who grew up with ps3 I will say sony did a great job on giving us so many cool and fun features and attachments for the ps3. A lot of this stuff was ahead of it's time lol.
I owned so many of those TVs. Bought them in bulk for $80 each. Really mad at myself for not holding onto one of them. They were awesome if you could keep them working. I was always terrified it would give out so after using it a few months I would sell one. I was a massive fan of 3d and this thing was legit for so small. Really mad 3D is all but dead. I still get the movies from overseas but gets harder and harder to find every year.
Just pirate them?

@@xfulmy243 same, same….
That 3D TV lets you do local multiplayer with full-screen view for each player instead of split-screen. Should have demoed that.
I have a 1TB SSD in both of my PS3s, however, I think it's limited to 1.5TB, if I'm not mistaken. As far as external drives goes, if it's too large, you can partition the drive and it will be read by the PS3.
4:03
Fun fact, although anyone who's familiar with the PS3 will probably know. A modded PS3 could install games to an external HDD. So if the PS3 accepts the drive, you can dump the disk to the HDD, both internal and external, although external can be a hassle in the case of an NTFS drive. It'll dump the disk into the .iso format, which can be decompiled and modded (check the CoD 4 mod video on my channel for an example). So if he modded the PS3, it would really could have been the Ultimate PS3. Also, it can use a LOT of controllers. Personally I've gotten old dummy gamepads, PS2 (with an adapter), PS4, and even Joy Cons to work with the system. As a matter of fact, it's bluetooth works really well too. I used to use a PS4 controller with mine, which worked great. Only issue was the home button not working, but I bought a cheap PS4 wired controller which works better.
I really do not understand anything you said, but if you mean Hacking the console, it can be done by falsifying the software with a pendrive and installing Hen from the network, you can download free games and dlcs, the console can emulate ps2, gameboy, Nintendo, super Nintendo, among others. Also install mod menu for different games. The ps4 control can be done even on an original console.

@@theinfluenceatl stfu
Yep, I had this video in my recommendations 15 seconds after release.
The fact that the DualSense worked Plug-n-Play was actually surprising.
If it didn't break in the first week i would be more surprised :)
Deathstranger it’s funny cause the DualSense doesn’t work on PS4 but it works fine on the PS3
probably recognizes it as a generic 3rd party controller
Ps3 had software update to support the PS4 controller I’d imagine they did the same thing
I was given a broken PS3 super slim and I managed to get another year out of it, but the hard drive went, and it keeps corrupting drives. Ironically, the 12GB onboard flash memory works fine and I still play games on it, but it's whooped, the hard drive panel is broke (from raging about the corrupting hard drives) and is rough looking in general.
What a trooper
What a shame,but its still pretty much usable but limited to like 3 games at once with install!
I couldn't believe when they pulled out that OLED TV, I'll admit I kind of geeked out about it lmao

9:00 “I’m going to double fist it” wtf Austin 😂😂😂😂😂
back in the day, this was definitely the ultimate set up
6:50 Not only Japanese. In European models, you also click X to enter, and O to close.
Yes that's the normal way, but what he was saying was the Japanese version is flipped... O to *enter* and X to *close* .
I think their logic being that X just like using a computer closes things... Actually I don't know why this wasn't the case from the start but we all got used to X to enter so it became the norm.
@@FireStarJutsu Yeah it seems to be kind of a universal thing in Japan that O equals Yes/OK and X equals No/Cancel
My guess would be that product testing in other markets pre-release probably revealed that most people in those other markets would be more accustomed either to X being for Yes/OK and O being for No/Cancel or the placement of the Yes/OK button being the bottom most button in the standard gamepad diamond arrangement. You know before they released the first Playstation they would have been doing market research and bringing in consumers to try out the device and getting feedback from them. This is the most likely explanation I can think of. The other possibility being a close second is that someone with a lot of power in Playstation divisions outside of Japan all came up with the idea that they should swap from how Japan does it just as a personal preference. I think the market research explanation is far more likely.
