Just so you know, the reason only the top half yellowed is that some plastics used in these machines were more susceptible to yellowing than others. They were molded in one place, then sent off to another for assembly, so machines frequently had a top from factory A (using a yellowing plastic) and a bottom from factory B (using a non-yellowing plastic). I've seen it the most with SNES/SFC units but it's true of a lot of electronics from the period.

@@MrSubjetivo Sunlight can do that to plastics if it's directly exposed to them for a long time if you're home has older windows, but many electronics from this period yellowed like this SNES because of the type of plastic they used in some batches. You can tell it's the plastic's fault because everywhere on that top shell is yellowed perfectly on all sides, including the inside where the sun can't get at. It's also ironic that the UV rays reacting with hydrogen peroxide and reverse the yellowing
@nekoimouto46393 жыл бұрын
@@finkamain1621 yeah, the top shell was definitely made from a completely different type of plastic than the rest. considering how little the rest of the shell parts were yellowed i assume this unit didnt even sit in sunlight and the topshelf might have yellowed on its own without even ambient UV.
@TokyoChanSan3 жыл бұрын
No I’ve seen many of these types of the yellow all the whole bottom and top shelves were both the ones that are white and then yellow have been modified and have been changed with other parts from other units this is not an original unit this is been put together from different parts.

It's just... *charming.* Plus, I mean, Nintendo has always focused mostly on child/family-friendly games, so "looking too much like a toy" does not really seem like much of a problem to me. It seems like an entirely fair design for a console from a studio whose biggest property is Super Mario.

Well, between a lot of people who have previously worked in Nintendo repair centers, and just a bunch of careful tinkerers, it's pretty common to see tons of guides on taking apart and repairing older consoles, especially ones like these! Wouldn't surprise me in the least if he just took the time to read up from the internet on these repairs and go for it(after all, buying a non-functional console can be cheap as hell, so worst case is you lose a few bucks but gain some good experience)!

Best part about this video was how I caught myself thinking: I would totally sit here and watch this dude play Mario, apparently! Great video as usual!

the fact that he never ran while playing is anxiety inducing.

This was the first console I played and owned. I got it when i was 5 years old. I remember playing Super Mario World on a grey wide CRT TV in my room. I spent a lot of time with this console. I still have the one I got when I was 5 and it still works. I hope to preserve it for several more decades.
