Restoring the Fat PlayStation 2 - Retro Console Restoration & Repair - ASMR

[@مطبخوفاءفؤاد]

I seriously love that you aren't adding any music to your videos, instead of allowing us to only hear the sounds produced as you disassemble. That's the secret sauce right there.👌👌👌

It pains my heart to see an OG PS2 in that kind of shape, the greatest console ever made in my book. So many memories with it.

[@Htl3648]

Don’t be fooled. This channel is loaded with videos like this. Who really keeps their consoles like this? I don’t even think if found in the trash they’d be in these types of conditions. I’m almost certain this guy makes them like that on purpose, takes then apart and cleans them, just for the sake of views.

[@GORF_EMPIRE]

@@Htl3648 You'd be surprised how many people abuse their property. Lots of these were not from hard earned cash the person had to put out, but mommy and daddy did and there for much less sense of responsibility.

The greatest console ever is actually the Original Xbox, but yes, I agree with you that consoles should be taken better care of...

No annoying sponger cut aways, no annoying music, no silly little video thumb nail with a shocked face. Just what it says on the tin, a PS2 repair in all its bliss. You've earned my like and sub on every single video I watch from your channel.

That poor PS2 😢…it’s sad how people don’t take care of their stuff and just scratch it up, keep them dirty, leave them dusty and even destroy them. PlayStation is one of my favorite consoles and by watching this video it is amazing what you can do to help old consoles look brand new again and you do a good job. Keep it up! 😁

I went back to my childhood :( Sometimes, all I wish is to go back to the past to experience life as a child again. Quite often I find myself lost in the past traveling through the times when I just rejoiced every single moment without thinking of what lies ahead. I just wish I had some superpower to do the time travel.

[@fefisnb]

Oh man, watching those videos of yours makes me think about a lot of things. First is patience. You must be the most patient person in this world because disconnect all those plugs, clean things up, using lots of tools and making a sustentable thing... It is super amazing and admiring. Second is being sustentable. Ppl loves to throw things away that can be fixed, restored or even recycled. That's why we are having lots of ambiental problems. Third and last, making these old school consoles run again must be like walking around with your newly painted bike or with new wheels of your skates... And it's satisfying to see. I said a lot already, so thanks for making these videos man. Lots of love from the huge retrogaming community from Brazil 🇧🇷

[@SaitoTheSmashGame2005]

I still have my ps2 fat model. Last time I fired it up she still ran like a charm, but the front cover of the disk tray broke off. I remember it really well because I was so excited to play "Call of Duty 2: The Big Red One" that I fumbled the case and dropped it right onto the poor disk tray with it wide open.

[@caingamin2]

The ps2 used to be the only piece of tech in the house so when the disc tray jammed I had no way to look up how to fix it and accidently broke off the cover for the tray, but it worked afterwards so I just had to put the cover back on lol

[@vinny_n_p]

Part 2 to work on that controller as well. Thanks for the video!

[@necrox001]

It does not use the same console. Basically, it shows how to clean a console but when he does the final test of the video, the console is a different one. You just have to look at the corners. The initial console has good corners and the final console has some notches in the corners, showing that it is a different and functional console, to deceive the spectators.

excellent restore !! I don't understand just one thing, how does it open the CD tray? was it just dirty and that was why it didn't work?

Have this been through a vigorous dirtying process? Note how the dirt runs around and parallel to the decal but not too close? it looks odd

[@ChrisBomar]

Overall, great restoration. I take issue with a couple items though. Your videos appear to nearly copy Odd Tinkering videos format with nothing new added to make your videos stand out as "unique". This is not really an "issue" but wanted to point out that I think that you could take your brand/videos to the next level by being a little more unique while still accomplishing the same types of content without looking like a "copy". In terms of the restoration, I would have liked to see a little more detail on what you were spraying on the electronics to clean them or using to grease the cd/dvd tray. I assume isopropyl alcohol and lithium grease but not everyone is familiar with the process and may be looking to your videos as a sort of "how to" to inspire them to do the same. On screen text for these types of items would stand out and help the community out i think. Electronics contact cleaner spray would also be a decent alternative for cleaning without causing harm to the electronics. The plastic polish was a nice touch and would have liked to know what you used here, I think overall text explanations and things to read for people looking for details would be a great thing for your content. It wouldnt need to be overtlyintrusive but something discrete to show what size bits you used, types of tools and supplies, even annotations of your thought processes along the way help tell a story and guide people which a channel like this would likely see returns on in terms of subscriptions/return audience. Lastly, the mod appeared to be installed and then taped with masking tape which is not a great solution and for a restoration video I would have liked to see you replace that tape with Kapton tape (which i saw you use to clean the cd/dvd rom spindle in the video) which would be a more appropriate solution to keep the contacts from touching the steel frame without being something that could become a hazard or a future issue. Again, good video, your camera work is good and lighting and sound are all great. I cant say that i felt that true ASMR but overall great job. Looking forward to seeing more :)
