Gooday Gaming Guests - Ground Hog Day Saturday 2-1-2024

Episode Date: February 1, 2025

The official Ground Hog Day this Year here in the USA is Sunday 2/2/2025

Good morning everyone. It is now almost 6 o'clock, 5.56. So yesterday I worked on Nintendo Wii U for the early morning hours. Found out that all the ones I have left, the consoles that is, they don't auto ID the audio video cable. So I couldn't. I had a buyer who needed a replacement. But he said his was freezing. So I don't understand what happened with that one.

But anyway, so he's just going to return it. And I'm just going to give his money back. I'll get that one back. And maybe at some point I'll retest it again. So the Wi-Fi wasn't working. And it was freezing. But I retested all the wii u's i had left every one of them uh is not auto id'ing the audio video so i can't sell

them as fully working so we're going to sell them as as a parts working but the you have to or order you have to manually set up the audio video. But nobody uses the audio video cable anyway. But I don't need any issues. If it doesn't fully work, then I have to sell it different. And then later on, I went on to 5200s. The Atari 5200s. So we played around with them. I have a trackball.

It's actually called a trackball controller. It's this giant thing. But it doesn't work for whatever reason uh so i'm going to sell that i sold i listed another motherboard for the 5200 that fully worked except for the power switch doesn't turn on and off and i also uh my last two top covers i listed those two so we'll see what happened with all that action yesterday. So I was busy doing stuff. I did a couple of live streams

between the Wii U and the Atari. And that was my next. I know my day is done. Alright, so let's see what's going on in the world. The government is doing more stuff which is which is expected but nothing let's see

here can I go to bed early, so everything that usually happens is overnight. Alright, so let's see what we have here. I'm just checking through the news to see if there's anything that really pops up. Lots of new government stuff. That's pretty crazy already. But we know that's going to happen. It's only going to get crazier. That's all I had to say about that. Okay.

So we're not seeing anything. We'll just pop right into Etsy See what we got going on Oh I have a message So I have two messages Once in a while I get a message Hopefully it's nothing I did wrong Which is possible

First message from a buyer His message is translate. Translate to English. Hi, could you send me a couple detailed photos of the sides and the front? I do I will I will

so this is a Sega CD exact bottom cover I have to find it I think I know where it is I'm actually gonna list more of those four this is on but I so so we'll get that one down I will in a bit this morning so that's really long Two months. We'll say we're bound two months. North Carolina. Priority. How much did he pay for that? Oh, crap. Alright, so we'll get that out.

That's my first order of the morning. Cool. So Etsy's been a little bit better which is fun once I get it going I gotta get some more stuff built I'm gonna work on some more of those Sega CD top and bottom right now I only have the bottom

but I have lots of tops to the list complete or torn down with the disc door I'll separate all that and sell that separate. Everybody needs just the disc door. Stuff like that. Try not to sell everything. Try to tear it down as much as possible because everybody needs something

different. You don't want to just sell a whole thing. Bottom cover is just its own entity so it just comes as that. The top cover I can do a lot with. Breaking stuff down springs on there there's latches there's all kinds of stuff those are the things that sell as opposed to just selling the whole top cover

which i may do too we'll see all right so that's that all right let's go on to my RSS feed. Yesterday we played around with GameCube. No, no, I'm sorry. Nintendo Game Boy. The cartridge. And we went through some games. We found a few rare games there. Game Boy and Game Boy Color.

There was a lot of games made for both. I want to say a couple thousand. It was really popular back then. And then it uses a Z80 processor, which is in a lot of those older stuff. Z80 architecture

way back when. So that was interesting. I know I've seen that pop up. So I had five downloads last night. Awesome. Appreciate anybody. Doesn't talk about any listeners. Doesn't say if I had in the last 80 days.

Last 24 to 4 hours. Last 7 days. 21 downloads. And 21 listeners. So that's pretty cool. Let's see how my dots are doing. Oh, I don't have any dots now. I wonder why that is. Oh, what a bummer. I'm see how my dots are doing. Oh, I don't have any dots now. I wonder where that is.

Oh, what a bummer. I'm not seeing any dots on my map here. Something changed. All right, so that's cool. Can I do these daily? About 20 minutes in the morning and in the afternoon. I used to do some during the night, but it was just too much to do the third one. For now. But we'll see. maybe we'll add something

else all right so looks like we're good there all right let's go on to youtube we were growing and i did promote i said i wasn't going to promote anymore but i did ten dollar promotion i do so they add up quick because i had two hundred dollars last month but i'm actually going to make a hundred dollars finally my first hundred dollars but not till like the end of the month so that's exciting took me a long time just to get to the first hundred dollars i don't know how if hopefully it'll stay steady at that. I'd like to get a lot more than that. I think I've earned it, I think. I worked pretty hard on that.

So I'm at 15,856 subscribers. No comments. So my main crack still got some good, $29.86, still going down. Although today is February 1st. Oh going down although today is February 1st oh yeah today's February 1st so if I go to my analysis here I'm gonna do a one-on-one later talking about my making my first hundred dollars if I go to revenue this $29.86. So, and somewhere there's where you can see more revenue. Oh, there it is.

Click on revenue here. And then, so for January, I made $34.63. December, I made more. I made $41. And then November 27. And I significantly was doing a lot more In January So all the extra work had zero Help for my

So it doesn't matter how much videos you put up Or how much content It doesn't necessarily mean anything Which is kind of a bummer It would be kind of cool if it was making more money as you were working harder at it. Normally you like things to go, but

it just doesn't. Last six months, my total Seymour gets me down to $106.95 total. So, at least we made it to that. To $106.95. Total. So.

At least we made it to that. It can only go up I think. Or as we can see it can go down. So I can't say it always goes up. But it's still interesting. It's been quite the little journey. And it really just all started in law. Three months ago. So.

But I'm always doing stuff. So I'm always going to put videos up. It's just part of the routine as I do. Alright, so we had two issues from eBay yesterday. Let's go dive in to see what happened from there. I always say to use eBay for the last because who knows. Again, I put all the things up yesterday. Let's see.

Offers. See if I get any more messages or other stuff. Important tax documents. Okay, yeah. So we're definitely going to do that. That's on there for $200. So that's my $10.99.

View my $10.99 for the year. Should have had a pretty good year. I'll do that after. Alright, so Atari $60. So I would do $60 the same guy Same guy $60

This guy works out for me he's buying a lot of stuff But well I just hope this guy works out for me. He's been buying a lot of stuff. But we'll... It says Delaware, but then I get... Then it sends me somewhere else. Yeah, I'll just... He's been buying stuff, so I'll have to keep sending it to him. Alright, so that's good there. I'm going to pull out some more.

While I have all my Atari stuff out, I'm going to pull out... I think I have a couple more boards. I'm going to get them out. Get them listed. They take up a lot of space, so I'd rather just get them moving. Awaiting shipping. I had some orders. I got some orders for shipping, so that's cool.

Feedback. Let's see what I have in there. I don't think I see any yet. Hold on. Except for that guy. Nope. Nothing there. Nothing there. So $200.

That Macintosh. Is that. No. I don't have $200. There's no half off that's actually that's way off half it's really really expensive i have before but i may just take it down and keep it i need one to touch test my thing so although i could use 200 always can use it but Some things I'm just going to hold off on. Let's see what else we got going on. I got six orders,

so let's see what we got from orders this morning. A little bit in there, so that'll help me out. Let's see what orders out this morning. The flap, power supply. All right, so we've got PS1 front controller port. Cool, one of those. Another PS1 different buyer.

Top cover. The 9000 though. It doesn't have that back port on it. So I'm going to make sure. Remember that's the 9000 model I need. We have a front port for the Nintendo Wii. I have a few more of those though

we'll check that in a minute and then I have a power supply for the PS3 Fat the Model A or E or B the APS-226 I have it as having a ding on it but the ones I have don't

and then the motherboard for the Super Nintendo parts motherboard 226. I have it as having a ding on it, but the ones I have don't. And then the motherboard for the Super Nintendo parts motherboard issues. And then a little flap for a Fancom gray cover flap.

I'm going to dig one of those up. But all of them are pretty easy peasy stuff to do this morning. Again, today is Saturday. So, post office closes early. But my mailman usually comes at like 2. So, usually I can still get stuff out. Things get ordered later in the day today.

Past when the post office closes. You want to order from me if you want some stuff on Saturday shipped. I always ship, but of course Sunday there's no shipping. We don't ship then. So that's one order. Let's see what else we got going on here. This morning for eBay. So my YouTube, going back to youtube for

a minute here uh we had 145 views overnight uh average percentage view 26 i had three likes so that's cool no feedback lately so so it's alright. But it's there. Today I'm going to do a one-on-one, I think, today. I'm not sure what it's going to be today. Actually, that one's done. Yeah, I'm going to do it. I got my silly hat. Well, it's not really that silly.

It's just a Zelda hat, but it's kind of cool. And then there's another Zelda thing I want to get. I'm going to order it as soon as I finish paying off all the bills for the month here. Which there's a lot. So. So that's the top cover. I got to remember like I said it's the

SCPH9001 for the PS1 that one does not that was the last model and it doesn't have that extra port in the back the parallel port or whatever they call it so therefore it um

it's a different top cover just like the 1001 is a different top cover. Just like the 1001 is a different top cover because it had the extra ports on the back, the audio video. And then all the other models use the same top cover other than those two models. pretty much over the years I've learned as much as I possibly can about each system all their components

inside and out because I sell all of it so I've all their components inside and out because i sell all of it so i've learned about things on inside and out because things that sell on the outside technically sell better than things that sell on the inside meaning i can have lots of broken things that don't work but all the outer shell and stuff screw sets all that stuff sells so therefore you don't just give up on a system one thing i've learned is definitely not because screw sets all that stuff sells so therefore you don't just give up on a system one thing i've learned is definitely not because screw sets give back and top covers side covers all that extra people everyone needs that they may have a system that their

their outer shell is all banged up and they want to refresh it exactly what people do so you have to offer it okay i wish i could get a lot more parts listed but it's just really hard i've almost had a thousand now things listed which is a lot and there is a way now with ebay it says you can just throw pictures up and ai will make your listing i may at some point, but not quite yet. I like to do videos with my listings, which really I think has been helping.

Especially if it's an electronical thing. Is that a word? Electronical? Something working. So this is 16 ounces here. So we've got a few orders. Which is cool.

Yeah. So it's breaking the parts down. And getting them listed. If I can at least get one thing listed of a system. Then it opens a conversation. And then people will ask. Hey do you have this also so I'm we're still working on other I have to do television one and two Magnavox I got a bunch of stuff to

list Sega's CDs the motherboards and other parts too so I've already done my testing on them I just have to go back and then just stop listing stuff but I've kind of went off track on those those are the three ones that are coming up I just haven't gotten to them but Sega CD, I already had a bottom case listed on eBay. I mean on Etsy. And I believe Etsy always saves your listings even after they're sold. So I believe I still have top covers there so I can easily make a new listing quickly. I just copy the one that's already there and just put a new photo. So we're going to do that maybe today because I just sold

that I'm gonna get some more bottom covers and top covers right now I'm just printing out the rest of my orders here at a few and then we'll go on to probably get these two orders done before the early Saturday shipping. And then see what happens. Midday, I'm going to do some more Atari stuff, I think. And I got to go back to my Wii U's because I need to make a new listing or modify the listing I have to say that they fully work other than you'll need to auto adjust your audio video cable if you want to use it but nobody uses it why would you want to use audio video when you have hdmi although some people may not have an

hdmi tv so that if that happens then you wouldn't be able to use it because you have to go to audio video first to change it i mean hdmi first to change it to audio video see what i'm saying so it would make it not working if someone just has an audio video tv only they couldn't use it because they need to get the hdmi to change the setting to audio video and then you can use this audio video so therefore it makes it not fully working all right so get that done so that's my orders all printed i try to print things out and do all that as quickly as possible so that it gets the you get paid uh thing going as soon as you print stuff out plus i do it first thing in the morning as i do all my messages any damage control all that stuff first thing as soon as i

get up and then that's all out of the way and then i just start working on the orders and that is my groundhog day as we say every day okay all right so that's it this morning I'm going to pick something else to do this afternoon we'll figure out something we'll probably go on DS we'll do DS cartridges and get some ideas of how all the early DS is

between the early DS to the 3DS and then later on it was the 2DS and then the new 2DS, and all. There's so many of those. Oh my goodness. All right, so we'll play around with all that stuff later. All right, you guys have a good afternoon. I'll talk to you later.

All right, bye.
