SEGA Genesis 1631 Testing Day.

Good morning everyone. It is now 549. Today is May 3rd and we're on a Saturday so we're into a weekend. So probably everyone is excited to be into their own weekend. I work every day so it really doesn't make a difference except for on Sunday. Sundays I get my chance to kick back a little bit because I don't have to rush to get orders out. I'm always trying to get my orders out for the day, up until the mailman comes or if I drop them off one of the two. So let's see what yesterday, I did some videos yesterday. I did a quick little stop motion with my dogs and my guinea pigs while I was sitting on the couch. Come on. All right. Just something funny. I can write. I could have just did a video, but I want to try to do it that way.

Get about 300 frames in. Uh, so we did that. And then I was working on my work bench for a while. Um, we did a few projects. I video the two different projects there. And then today, when then of course I went out into my, there's a room I'm working on still. It's getting better. Starting to see the light a little bit. I'm staining some of the floor as I go.

And we'll get that room empty out as soon as we can. And then I can make that room into something for my mother. I need to, I have two freezers to bring up and some other things.'ll get there so it's my early before gets really too hot a project so we've been working on it little by little so I do as much as I can but it's a lot better than it was so and I got many other places to do mass recycle but but we're starting there. For now, mass recycle just stays stored for now.

Let's see what's going on this morning. Oh, I put a new thumbnail for my project journeyman overnight. So I asked my buddy Zippy, of course, does all my images for the night. So we, we did that and he came up with a new image for me thumbnail took a little while. The only thing about my buddy Zippy once it does an image for you like it produces an image it can't remember what he just did at all. It's the only thing that's really downfall

So that's a bummer But it's been spelling better I Haven't tried I'm gonna try some new I was trying to do t-shirts and logos so it's Self help it's uh, it's um, self help um, but it was always giving me uh, wasn't spelling correctly so we'll try it again. Okay, let's we'll check the news here, see what's going on this morning. Trying to think what I did, what I did yesterday. I did a couple little videos

All right, let's see what news host Gets big game coming out. Well, it's lots of good games at the end of June's coming fast By just trending to it's not too far away now, very exciting. I've seen some more snippets about Subnautical 2, which is another really game I could just get lost in easily. Although I'm not usually first person one, but I like that. I think there's some third person action So let's see. Alright, so let's go and get, so yesterday I had an order on Etsy. Just one order. That's about the extent of it.

I had two orders in the last 20 days. Pretty slow. Alright, so nothing going on there. Let's check this any recent activity. I don't know if people favor my store and stuff so there's potential there. It'll never be a big draw but not too bad. Let's look at my RSS feed. I was adding some new places to send my live feeds yesterday. I found some new ones called mixer I believe. Not sure what that is but we added it. So I'm looking for new places to send my overnight project journeyman along with my... I do an early morning. I do my Good morning groundhog good. Good morning my groundhog days

Now groundhog good morning my guineas is what I meant to say So I let my clean up my guineas and I'll let them run around I had to Two downloads and then I live stream it for a while Who doesn't like cute guinea pigs? So I had two downloads yesterday cool Ashburn I haven't seen Ashburn a long time. Oh welcome Ashburn back Prague Manila and then another place in the United States mid Olathan visit myth middle Olathan pretty fun always excited to see somebody new Hello, Athan. Pretty fun.

Always excited to see somebody new. And repeats from people from before. I'm always on every morning as I'm waking up and previewing what my day's gonna look like. Normally I won't really know that part until we get to the eBay. But for now, let's go to YouTube. Let's see where we're at here check

that every morning as well and let's see subscribers we're getting close to oh yeah we're getting 34,810 subscribers so I'm getting close to 35,000 really haven't promoted that much. So pretty cool. I only had a few views overnight. Even I tried to add a new thumbnail. Maybe it would track more people, but not really. But I do it consistently each night. I've got some more stuff coming in. Uh, something just came in today because I'm having a problem with, uh,

I could get significantly many more views on tick-tock. I do that live stream Alongside of YouTube but tick-tock kicks out because there's not it. This is no ink activity So I'm trying to move things around more in my little space and so Something came in we'll look at that a little bit later on It's an STE board. It's a development board Instead of getting the Arduino. I decided to get that instead and then I also had something else coming in so it's Gonna be for my projects as I go forward. Oh, I did removal of

All the Wii board. That's right. Yeah. Yeah, I did the Wii gamepad gamepad yesterday and I was also looking at my Doshiba VCR who doesn't need a good VCR right everyone has old good VCR tapes they want to play movies and stuff so I've gotten out of the state sale and came with the remote and it works perfect which is pretty awesome. So my views on YouTube are consistently 97.7K, watch hours 757.9, and of course my revenue is just $26.34. So it may have gone up a few cents since yesterday, I'm not sure.

It goes up, it goes down down but it saves around $20. No matter what I do actually. Yes that's what I did. I always have my buddies. Yeah, we did a couple of those things. That was fun. I'm always looking for new fun things to do. Let's go to some more games, delayed. It looks like it for... I'm looking around for anything else.

On the news front, of course I only look for the good stuff or things that really would be relative to what I'm talking about normally I don't do the doom and gloom try to stay away from that we see enough of that as it is alright so let's just go right oh today's a Kentucky Derby so that's interesting let's see and let's check my ebay here. Just go read the messages. Returned. Ah, I have a second return now. Yuck. Let's see what I got returned now.

Power supply is getting returned. Wonder why. wonder why. sent wrong I received a seven pin power supply oh did I oh I must have made a mistake I wasn't paying attention yeah I did I did send offer man I sent the wrong one shoot I made a mistake there. See, every once in a while I make a mistake. I did say that. Shoot. Why is this a liar? I just saw the return. Sorry for my mistake. I must have not paid attention. I hardly ever make a

error. ever make a error, but I must have not checked which one it was when shipping. happen in the haste of getting orders shipped out as quickly as possible. I saw you here. Why did you not contact me first? I can easily ship the correct one. Alright so, bummer. So that's two mistakes I've made in the last couple days. And I also have, well now I have two returns. So I have a big stamp I put on all my packing slip. My packing slip was my communication to communicate to say if something's wrong please contact me first. But that buyers never do. They never contact you when there's a problem. I can't fix it if I don't know if I made a mistake. Shipping was fast, well packed, item is described. The value comes in the fact that you must have the right AC adapter on these controls. Oh, this is the, if not the picture and sound performance

will suffer. The adapter was the right one and improved the overall performance of the console. So that's pretty cool. That was for the Mattel Intellivision 2 power adapter. Another one was power supply, whole plug, fast, thank you. So again most things are good but sometimes I make blunders. So let's go see what the message is. Finish draft, $20. Oh no, we weren't taking that. Let's see what I got for orders here this morning. So I'm at two, so my feedback, I'm at 10,799, Let's see what I got for orders here this morning. So my feedback, I'm at 10,799, but that's also including all my purchase feedback, so

it's not the real feedback. Let's see if I can see what the real feedback is. Just from buyers. I don't think I chose it. No, it doesn't show it. Somewhere that does show how many just for the buyers as a seller feedback I still haven't got close to 10,000. But according to my base store

I've sold over 27,000 parts Which seems like a lot more and of course and also is saying that I've been On eBay since 2015 But I didn't really start doing gaming parts until I Think more like 2017. I think it's when I really started doing gaming parts So

So we've got a good you almost 10 years into, so in 10 years, or I would say 8 years, we've done 27,000 parts, almost 10,000 feedback, but not really, probably more like 8,000 feedback, because you usually get for one, although I do put a stamp on my packing slip also to say please leave a feedback but most don't so I know I did that I made a mistake I hate making mistakes but it happens alright So we have Sega Genesis working VA of the unknown issues. Yeah I got those all set. Bottom screws for the PS2. 10 bottom screw so that you get this is the PS2 fat so you get its 10 bottom screws those are the original ones that had the

004 on the boards or 005 and then there was a different one but 006 and literally count the screws on the bottom there's 10 those are the original ones after that there was only 8 bottom screws and they were all the rest of them. And with the 10 bottom screws there's only 2 long ones, all the rest, the other 8 are short. And then the caps are the same. The caps are the same on the PS2 Slim as well. PS slim, I'm sorry same kind of caps. They must have reused them or similar to them And then like I said, I had a Sega Genesis 1631 motherboard. I put them as unknown issues Got some boxes of them and I just found more of them

We're gonna test them more than I'm gonna pull that box up bring it up We'll do some Sega Genesis testing again today. I just found I'm gonna go through those. And then the next one is, in the other order, is for a bottom, silver bottom with the power board and button. Now it comes as one piece for the Nintendo GameCube that is. So I include the power board which is in it and then the button. And it's all one, it's all, and all the metal is in it. So it's all one piece here. Alright, so that's all I get for this morning. Pretty easy peasy stuff here.

Oh god, there's just a couple things. Got new sails going on. So we got a couple things. We've got new sales going on. So we've got that going on. Alright, so that's probably it for this morning. So you guys have a good afternoon, a little bit shorter today, but we have a good afternoon. I hope you enjoy the weekend. We have a pretty nice weekend coming up here.
