Gooday Gaming Guests - Ground Hog Day Saturday 5-31-2025

Episode Date: May 31, 2025

I will Test the Nintendo Big 3 GameCube Lens Assembly, N64 08 Motherboard and Cartridge Slot and SNES Sound Box Motherboard Today from the Parts LOT I got last Week,

Good morning everyone, it is now 6.49am so I've been sleeping a little bit later because I've been staying up late a new thing now is I watch a movie or two before I go to bed. I picked up Apple Plus because I watched The Fountain of Youth the other night and it was really fun, I really enjoyed it with Natalie Portman, our big fan so I suggest that movie. If you get Apple Plus.

And then I started watching the first episode of Silo. Very interesting. It has a fallout, the series fallout feel to it. From Prime. So, Big Fan. So you definitely have to see fallout. That's really cool. Based on the game a little bit And then I watched one episode of silo last night, and I'm really into also So max I got max 2 I watch

Dune the prophecy which has nothing to do with the other series the movies, but it's also pretty fun So that's what we've been doing then yesterday we worked. I was steady with orders I had two Nintendo Wii U Consoles I had to tear down first when I videoed Testing it updating it resetting it doing the whole deal took me a good 45 minutes to get all that done So some orders that come in are very time-consuming But usually I'm right on them I normally don't just put orders aside ever if I'm on my w- well except when I'm sleeping so all my waking hours are just getting orders going because you don't want to fall behind I can't afford it because it's just me if I stay on pace

for that I'm on I'm fine so I just can't take any really time off even if I'm just putting them together or getting them organized I don't necessarily have to pack them today Saturday And of course you want me as a seller on Saturday Because my mailman or mail access we have a mail lady now I should say my mail lady doesn't come until three o'clock on Saturday, which is awesome because main post office in town closes at 12 and Then the smaller one and the other side of town that closed at 1 But I can still push out orders and I will until the lady comes around

3 and That's with the truck to pick up my big load Because I have a giant oversized mailbox that I can fill easily at some point and many times or if I have a lot of them I'll go bring them to the post office too and Then she takes a second walk around on my street And then if I have anything else I can throw in there again, and I can pack and get in there before she comes I will Really good about that So let's see what this morning brings.

So we do also, we also did PS4 1215A. Just needed an update. So I tore it down. Listed all the parts for that. The power supply, all the main parts. Power supply, motherboard, disk drive. All the, both top, the bottom case and the top covers. Those are all listed now.

Let's check a look at Etsy. And I started, but I haven't crossed list, is a new app, not an app, a new website that I signed up for. I'm going to open a small McCarrie and Parchmark store I can do gaming electronics there so we're gonna do that so I have to have that first in order to and I can use that also to put some more stuff on eBay I mean Etsy rather but unfortunately it's not a straight listing from eBay to these stores you have to do certain things

So I can't do them all at once I can do one by one. It's kind of the pain We're gonna start working on that very soon In the next week June 8th is going to be a big day For Death Stranding 2 June 8th. Oh, it's coming. Yeah, I won't sign up for it until it's here Unless this I don't want to see anything about it until it gets here and I just gonna get the original version I'm not gonna get all the other nonsense. It comes along with it. It's they're so expensive now 70 $69 I believe 70 bucks just for the Basic version which is fine good enough for me

Yeah, I only want I always play it'll outplay it on the easiest setting of course. I just want to play the game I don't want to become a world record So we'll do that too, so I'd seen nothing going on at sea. Let's see my RSS feed What's going on here this one, so it's raining today here in Rhode Island But and then tomorrow is gonna be like a passing shower I think on Sunday and then I think meteorology meteorology summer starts On the 21st, but we're gonna have some 80 degree days coming up

That's pretty exciting. I stood a lot with lots of do outside. I showed you where I'm at now outside You can see the video. Oh, so I have two downloads Very exciting. I like to get at least a couple one or two Ashburn always Manila always great to see him L's warm from Germany thousand oaks from United States and Canada, Toronto So a few around the around the country and world which is awesome

My message in a bottle over the internet ocean as I always say Okay, so let's look at YouTube so I had almost $300 in promotions in YouTube I had almost $300 in promotions in YouTube Last month I can't do that again. I just can't afford it, but I've gotten significantly farther Let's see how many subscribers are at For 44,000 897 subscribers So we're almost at 45,000 already. We've had almost 10,000

909 999 9999 in the last 28 days So that's really again all attributed to the amount of promotions that I did so starting this month I'm gonna want to do it all the time, but I'm not gonna I can't really afford it that $300 was a real hit Although I'm close to $100 For the last three months, so I will get I mean, so I will get a hundred dollar payment. Hopefully this month I think I'm at $32 and 7 cents

My watch hours went up a 103.9. I mean the views rather and then the watch hours 736.3 So going forward I'm going to try not to do it because I'm gonna do videos here and there and I'm gonna want to promote Them is I'm not gonna promote anymore. I just have to be happy where I'm at for the amount of subscribers It's almost kind of an addiction to want to promote things so I can get more subscribers It's really fun, but it's really hurting me financially because I'm not it's not paying off at all

It's just me going in the negative as I always talked about so we're just gonna going forward no more promotions and we'll just see how we go from there of course I always do videos every day it's three four times a day and then I decided also I'm going back to YouTube live feeds however it's gonna be my overview I started. I set it up so you can see the overview but a live feed overview and I also have the video that I make from it and Then we do tick-tock live. So we'll do those three Going forward. I normally don't get many

Live views overview. Well, we'll do it for a while again Again. I try to mix it up. Try different things see if I can No comments see if I can get something else going on. You have to keep mixing it up pretty much That's what I've been trying to do. We'll get outside My average duration is always 34 34 seconds And I see that I'm at the point where I've been I already know if you're just doing you and and it just is not getting any different then you're probably never well meaning I don't think I'll ever really get YouTube to to do anything for me be great if it did I'm really trying but the amount of subscribers is not does not correlate to higher income or more views or amount of time watched it's just where every

continent people don't want to watch it they'll just watch for a second and that's it so of course I wish lots of shorts and stuff anyway because those are always important those I can get a few hundred Views without having any promotion. All right, let's look at eBay. I did have a neutral feedback yesterday So the buyer contacted me about a problem He waited seven days to give me a neutral feedback, which is it was totally on me. I had two Things left and I messed up and I shipped them one with a little bit of ding on the thing

and of course I get the negative neutral feedback with a zoomed in photo of just of the exact spot that I missed super Thank you so much in capital letters for the bottom plates and screws for the PS 3 super super slim so and Yeah, so I get the zoom in photos. You can check it out the neutral feedback This is very poor condition. I guess for the is fair for the money and it has a ding on the metal It's the one that I had on my Xbox just which is right next to me, right near me. And when the order came in, I had a lot of orders

and I was like, oh, I have one right here. I'll just grab it quick, throw it in the mailbox and get it out for him. Of course, the intent is always to try to get your orders out as quickly as possible. However, in that haste, I sometimes overlooked the fact that it had a ding on it and I forgot. But what's not

said on here is it fully works. It's the one I was using. So it's just anyway it's just that was a choice to buy it made. So I won't sell somebody like that again. If they can't at least contact me and say hey it's got a ding on it. Do you have a different one? I would easily would have shipped it. I would have took that one back. I would have paid to ship that one back and I would have I have one more that I know it's not dinged And I didn't know where it was and that one was ready to written where I could grab it So I did find that one. I would have been like, yeah, sorry. Sorry. I made a mistake. Sure I'll ship you out a

Replacement and I'll take that one back As a paid return I'll pay for it because I'm going down a couple So that's how that ended Totally my bed, but I sometimes I I need the buyers to have my back or help me out As I'm trying to get things out to buyers or best I can but again I'm not 3d printing brand new stuff either these are used items and sometimes they do have things on but they work But I wasn't the one I wanted to ship them, but I did by accident and of course blew up my face But I said I could try to do this again alright, so let's see we have a couple orders

Let's see what orders we have do I have any messages I'm gonna have messages or We have offers. $10. Yeah, no that's not happening. So I put some of my Super Fan Coms up for as complete. I'm not really going to, definitely not going not gonna spend over $10 cheapest gaming the name of the guy who of course he gives me the cheapest he wants the cheapest I'm not selling those for any cheaper

I've got a discount on them anyway so $36 for a complete one best I'm gonna do I don't sell for a penny less I have the motherboards too. Nintendo Wii. I guess, no I'm not gonna take that. No I'm not gonna take that. I'm like doing ten dollars today. So, let's see. We just have a couple orders which is great Saturday. I want to work on other stuff. Oh, I want to get some of those new stores open up. to migrate all my Google drive onto computer drivers get all that off of there and stop paying all that extra money as Google tries to charge you you

know 30 bucks a month I got rid of all my subscriptions for the chat GPT and Gemini because again just wasted money because it does the same thing You just get a short amount of time to do it, which is fine. I'm not on it all the time. I Think at this point you shouldn't have to pay for a chat GPT or any of that Alright so we have three or no, let's see we have three orders, no two orders, what were they? Awaiting shipping. We have a slim top cover, cool, yeah I have a few of those.

And then we have a original Xbox 2001, the original 1.0 motherboard that has that fan with the CPU I mean, I'm sorry the the GPU heat sink and fan They were often very noisy what you want to do is take that out of there and just get the other GPU heat sink and replace it and then your your 1.0 is super quiet in an instant Or you can just take that fan off but it's it's you don't think you really need both but people use those for something else as well but I'm not sure what I think they still using that heatsink but they're not using the fan I'm not sure I ran out of the original one with the

GPU and of course I'm not really buying anything else so but we're gonna go back to I had the lot I did buy a parts lot the other day and we are going to which includes lens assembly from a GameCube that I haven't tested yet there was the Wii U we tested that it had no power which is very unusual for Wii U to have no power and then we had what else do we have oh the N64 motherboard and it's an 08 motherboard so I'm gonna I'm gonna test that today and also a Super Nintendo motherboard where the switch is broken, but it doesn't necessarily mean that that was a problem I stripped those all down the other day. I think in a video maybe

so today we're going to Get a close look at those because I'll sell those either working or not. It doesn't matter They both sell especially that oh wait N64 motherboard that'll easily sell really fast Super Nintendo that'll sell that is a sound box one so that means I have a sound box Also, I can sell Somewhere I have a second sound box. We have two sound boxes And Cartridge slot for the N64. I will test that

So that'll be a little little smorgasbord of stuff. We'll do later on There's a little video again. We're gonna open up the live feed overview While I'm doing video as well All right, so I think it's about it this morning. Where are we at? 16 minutes will make a little bit shorter today get to Saturday I see you guys have a good afternoon, and I will talk to you later
