I Made a Nintendo Playstation

Just like the real thing...

[yolad]

So many channels about retro mods are so careful and delicate but James is just as jank as the original truly gives retro vibes

[GolemAvalanche]

To be so careless with one's components but still knowledgeable enough to make it all work (and to know what to fix when it doesn't work) is truly the mark of a craftsman.

It's shocking the amount of angle grinding a console can take and still work.

[devkit]

I'm so used to these kinds of things being all precise and formal. Seeing you grinding circuit boards, ripping things apart, patching things together with wires, then dumping ten kilos of hot glue in there and ending up with a working item is such a breath of fresh air honestly

[seabit]

What always sells me with James' creations is just how violently he throws them together, I love it.

[Arcade_Cat_]

The amount of times James says “I’m sure it’ll work, ” “hopefully that works, ” and “I’m sure it’ll be fine”is very reassuring

[SomeInterestingName]

The fact James can so confidently rip out electronics and frankenstein them together and know exactly what he's doing is astonishing to me.

[eggstatus]

Whenever I tinker around with electronics, I'm always just super careful. James is just, "Ok that goes there" *slam* "I dont need that" *crack* "Don't need that either" *angle grinder noises* "Let's make a hole for this button" *drilling noises*

[EricsonOfficial]

This is an absolute cursed patchwork of a console but I can’t help but be amazed by it.

James is like a mad scientist for electronics instead of chemistry

[dylanwahrheit]

I showed my dad this vid and he said, "That's the hackiest motherf***er i've ever seen" and he is an electrical engineer. But I have to agree. Angle grinding not just the case but the motherboard, ripping off unused components, and using a 9V switch to break main. I literally had to lie that you were joking to my dad he was actually horrified. Never in my life have I ever scene every ribbon being a slice of a bigger ribbon or soldering to different ribbons together they brake if I look at them the wrong way. I don't think theirs's an inch of this console not held together with hot glue which is impressive and horrifying. I can't wait for the next video. I've never quite seen anything like this. The crafty way you get away with using all the wrong things is insane.

James is the type of guy to have a disc drive scratch his game and not hammer the drive to nothing.

[MacDonnellFTAA]

That was 10 minutes and 54 second of pure carnage and I absolutely love it, I applaud your craftsmanship and knowladge towards electronics. That was sheer perfection.

[GooseWaffe]

The way he talks about what he's doing puts me at ease and makes me realise, we're going to get the end result and i'm going to wait and watch it unfold

[Worrok]

The only man to truly treat vintage electronics with the respect they deserve.

[nwojdak]

James, you both inspire me and terrify me with your devil-may-care attitude towards electronics. I am in awe of your prowess

[bricksandpieces]

Man I love these videos, nothing is careful, if you dont need it, rip it off, and hot glue everything. And the main peices are either free or leftover parts. I like this more than all these professional tech video's🤣

[TRIVIA]

I absolutely love “put a game in the cartridge slot”

[rickyboiiiii]

As an engineer, I am absolutely horrified at how you did this. But I still couldn't stop watching it.
