Gooday Gaming Guests - Ground Hog Day Thursday 6/26/2025
Episode Date: June 26, 2025After 3 days of Short Play of Death Strand 2 On the Beach, I can say it is Just more of the same without the Awesome Story Start of the Original. Hopefully it gets better. I expected Major Tech upgrad...es but seem to see worse graphics overall. Not a fan of the Thumb Ring at all. What is up with the LEGO Look of the terrain when zooming in to set your next stop.

Good morning everyone. It is now 738. It's June 26, 2025 and we officially had a four-day heat wave which has now passed.
It's a little bit cooler out today. Significantly cooler actually now but we're back down to like the 60 something.
And we had some rain so it's soft even better So yesterday I worked on
What I do yesterday all ps3s we pulled all of my fat
backwards compatible the true backwards battle model
CoK-001 mother motherboard and we found that we have two different models within those
motherboards. One's a minus 22 at the end of the board model number and the other
one is minus 32. Somebody's interested in the minus 32. So that's the preferred
motherboard of those two. Today I'm going to do the CK-002. So that's not true.
It doesn't have the PS2EE chip on it.
It has something else on it.
Emulation chip or something.
So lots of PS2 games do not work on that one.
Whereas the other one, most, but still not all PS2 games work on the original backwards
compatible.
And of course we found out, and we've said this many times, you can play PS1
games on any PS3. Doesn't matter, they'll all play. So that's something exciting I did not know.
I never really was, I was working during the PS2 generation, so I've really never played any PS2
games that I really recall. And if I did I don't really remember. So PS2 games weren't really
And if I did I don't really remember so I ps2 games weren't really
things that I played so ps1 and
Then I've named a ps3. I really wasn't really playing a lot of ps3 games So ps1 then ps4 of course ps4 was probably the most
Games I've played over my lifetime
by far
And now ps5 not as much but ps4 definitely that's where I put many hours in hundreds and hours
Well, let's see what's going on this morning
So the cool weather is a little bit cooler
23 biggest changes so death straining 2 I really haven't put a review on about it yet
Still playing it
All I can say that the really only review I can give you right now is it's just the same
It's all I got
But without any really really great
beginning story
So maybe something else will change, it's really all I got.
So it's just the same.
So we'll see where it goes from here.
I really haven't gotten that far.
I've gotten a couple of things connected.
But that's about it.
Alright so let's check Etsy.
Nothing, I don't know what to do with Etsy yet.
Bummer. nothing I don't know what to do with it yet bummer
I have to just stop selling all kinds of...
then we're gonna do... let's go to Parchmark
that's just a social media
site for me pretty much
for now I'm gonna try to... my cross list
app ends in a few days so I'm gonna try to my cross list app
Ends in a few days, so I'm gonna
See if I can get some stuff listed here before it closes
Just so I can maybe get a couple more subscribers or followers at 981 followers
So that's pretty cool. I don't know what really does for me, but I do have a link to my YouTube from there
So of course we always want to try to mirror back and forth from YouTube
To eBay or eBay to YouTube and then this park my Parchmark to YouTube
kind of deal If I can't sell anything here at least maybe sometimes I can reflect back to my other store at some point
So that's what we try to do
Does it work? I'm not really sure. Can't hurt, right?
So, all right, let's check out my RSS feed this morning here.
I think I had any downloads yesterday. My podcast has been very short, just because there really
hasn't been a lot of things going on, which is actually a good thing. My long, usually my long podcasts,
I had two podcasts yesterday, I mean two downloads.
89 in the last 30 days, which is a lot for me.
659, pretty awesome.
Last two episodes, two.
So we have Lindale, Ashburn, they're always there.
I always welcome them.
Every day almost, pretty much. It's pretty cool
Toronto Pakistan and
Charlotte United States
My message in a bottle over the internet ocean wherever it may land and hopefully you guys go over to my YouTube
Where I do all the actual videos I?
Changed up some of my setting views to closer up
both on my live feed and on my overview of video.
And then I changed my TikTok to a higher view,
but I'm gonna change that.
That's best I could get it for now.
So we'll try to mix the views up a little bit
for different angles.
I only get a few views per video
but we like to try to mix it up,
try to get a little bit closer
and so you can see what I'm doing better.
Somebody said that all my baby yodels were distracting
so I kinda zoomed in without them being in the video.
I think they're fun, but somebody said
they were distracting, so we'll try it.
So we're at 46,000, which is staying strong.
I didn't think I'd stay strong with that many.
The 554, so again, we were at 655.
It was my peak.
So yesterday I only had five views on my PS3 VAT.
Backwards compatible.
So it's very low.
Hours of going down, 160.6k.
Watch hours, 667.
So everything's going down.
And of course my revenue, which is a real bummer $28,086 that's
Really bummer. I think I got as high as $32. Why it goes negative like that
Doesn't seem fair right?
put all the work in and you get a
Few dollars and then the two dollars go away. It's a real bummer
All right, so let's just see what we got going on here.
Oh, maybe I premiered that twice.
Oh, I must have premiered that twice by accident.
Oh well.
Somehow I did that.
So I've been mixing up the videos because I'm not promoting, as we've said.
Saved me a whole bunch of money this month, which is really cool.
Things really didn't change either way, but what I did is went to flash 15 seconds quick three minutes for the long video and then the
long video so I break it up and then I to the one minute ones I put as a video
so you can see the whole thing because when they do shorts they're cut off on
either side you can't really see it it's kind of stupid and I was a fan of that
so other than doing that and I've been doing premieres I don't promote I don't upload it
as public I go to private first and then from there if I hit it quick enough I can premiere
it so I try that option I'll try all kinds of different things. There's really
nothing else left I can do. It's one of those things like I always say you just do
you and if at some point it just doesn't work or just get you where I'm at
that's pretty much what it's gonna do. So I just take it as it is. Alright let's look to
eBay. So eBay we had a couple sales. Let's see we got
Just a couple thingies
To sales 35% off sales
Right now seller resolves any issues quickly and fairly
So it must have been an issue. Let's see what that was
POT oh that was he It was his issue. I's see what that one was. POT, oh that was, he, it was his issue, I
don't know what my issue. He had the wrong address. So, it came back to me, so I charged
him $4 for the return shipping. Technically it was $4 each way, but I just charged him
$4. And then he just left a positive review awesome seller great communication everything was
packed well the exact grill set that's pretty cool
let's see what else we got I could use an easy day today so messages from the by once the cancel on definitely not a via as long as he okay
with the mountain okay okay so this is okay
right off
minus 32
so we get that's what he wants, I want to cancel an order
let's see what this is
and missing, so I decided to cancel that
so I decided to cancel that. So, um... Okay. So I think that gives me just one order today.
Just...
Oh, wait.
Oh, actually.
Hold on a second.
I'm gonna see something here.
Yeah, so that means I just have one order.
I thought I had two, but I only have one now.
But we sold some other stuff, so that's pretty cool.
Oh. Yes, that means I just have one order. I thought I had two but I only have one now. But we sold some other stuff so it's pretty cool.
And we're going to do the other half of the boards today. We'll get them listed.
So what I did is I made two listings now for the COK-0001 motherboards.
One is specifically the minus 22 end board and the second one is the minus 32.
So this way when a buyer asks when looking and they specifically want, I had three, I
had four minus 32s, I had three minus 22s, two of them which I had sold.
So if I can break it down even further into a detailed listing, I do, because buyers want
specific things and it's usually always some sort of a mod related.
So we gotta keep, and of course if it's something that, if out of those two the minus 32 motherboard is more preferred for a mod and
So therefore I'm gonna charge a little bit more because it's harder to find and specific and usually when you're doing modding stuff people
Make lots of money off the modern items
All right, so we had something here who I sold something oh I saw a Panasonic
3d oh Dis set all my discs Alright, so we had something here. Oh, I sold something. Oh, I saw a Panasonic 3DO
disc set all my discs
Variety set I get a good deal on that one was a 35 30% off. So that's pretty cool. I'll take that
So I have one order. It's a pretty good order not huge, but it's a fun order
so
I'm looking at tells you the day and I was like oh 3DO
I used to have a couple 3DO's those are fun 3DO's and then there's the Amiga 32 CD which
is kind of similar to those two so that's pretty awesome so that's probably my only
order today so discs I don't usually sell many games I have so many games but some of my hard to find systems that I no longer have that I had
had it at one time some of the games are listed and that's one of them so it's
pretty cool I have I'm gonna try like Gamecube I've got lots of Gamecubes with
the the actual case that comes in with the artwork at all
and then some that are not.
I even got Windwalker but I haven't really sold any of those.
I will eventually.
Games are so hard to sell.
It's just that no matter how clean you get them or what not, you're always going to get
some sort of a return on them so I've been avoiding selling games but I've got lots of Wii
games some of them that are a little bit better lots of games of all kinds I just
really haven't had time to sit and list games but it'll happen sooner or later
alright so that's how I get this morning, guys, and girls, and anybody else that comes in.
Pretty easy morning again since yesterday, so that's cool.
All right, we're gonna leave it at that.
All right, so you guys have a great day,
and I will talk to you tomorrow,
going into the weekend.
All right, bye.
