The $1 junk Sony PlayStation 1 restoration - Vintage Console repair - ASMR

[@3girl]

I love how this guy saves the broken consoles. It's like he comes to them and says: "Come. You've suffered long enough. It's time for you to be happy."

[@DiamondDead]

Ah yes, the very well known flea market without anybody but one person. with consoles that are deliberately sprinkled with mud both inside and out ah yes...totally authentic...yes yes...

[@MichaelM28]

You think he did it himself?

[@bazzerker35s]

@@MichaelM28 I have watched a lot of restoration video's and after him cleaning the shell of the PS1, it doesn't have any scratches and dents on the shell either. Things like that should of had those on the shell, because that's what makes old consoles look old after being used for many years. Also he's putting in a copied disc of the game Crash Bandicoot and not a official PS1 game into the console.

So satisfying to see an old PS1 come back to life, especially since nowadays we're at PS5. The original was fun nostalgia as a kid.

[@MichaelM28]

Not as fun anymore with having to deal with the CD drive failing, find a good HDMI adaptor, 240p to 480i resolution switching, region locking and capacitor replacements.

Unfortunately note 5. the plate was not clean, it would be necessary to soak it in isopropyl alcohol and then dry it in the oven, and put the metal plates in water with an acid solution to remove all the rust and then paint it with aluminum color paint.

[@teamofone1219]

Any restoration video that starts out with someone recording their find like that with no context before that is sus.

[@Prodigy3532]

You had me the whole time believing this was legit. Putting the part where you replaced Capacitors was a nice touch. The part that blew it up for me was when you were playing you could obviously tell the system wasn't working. There was no Green LED, you cut away before it even powered on to the system already running.....

[@zarreff]

I see some kind of light coming through there, it could be the heavy flourescent light above making it harder to see the green glow...but something is there lighting up. Though he didnt show it booting which can be suspect.

[@wheeliethebin]

i hope you realise that 90% of these videos are fake anyway

[@mugogrog]

You do realize they're taking a PS in good shape and destroying it to make this video right? It's a scam to get on the fixing hype on youtube. It is the same every time and it's a shame people fall for it because it means more people will do it. There's nothing actually getting repaired.

[@derekjanson2328]

The green light isn’t on and there’s a PSone (slim) controller plugged in, but the one you’re holding isn’t plugged in and it has no analog, which PSone controllers do.

[@Seanmm8855]

yea im almost convinced the gameplay on the tv was not from that console

[@masterlcpl3736]

i noticed that too that the green light never came on....weird

[@XxNewmilleniumxX]

Wrong original ps1 had no analogs whatsoever. So we know that controller is not a slim controller. Its an old og fat ps1 controller, 2 the light is on but its very dim. You can observe this if you were to adjust your brightness on your device to the lowest settings and you will see a dim green. Not trying to say its not a fake but the observations are not correct but it is fishy how he cut off on the bootup sequence when he first fixed it.

[@deanoscott]

The green light very much came on. Look closer.

[@Mrpopcornal]

Wrong i saw green light power on and that could be a early hybrid of the PSone controller

Honestly it is hard to beleave that this PS one came back to live with a mainboard rusted like this one is. Even the housing seems not to be the same as at the beginning. Rust stains are normaly hardly to remove completely like you can see on that bracket. Why not make honest videos? I like your channel but I don't like to be fooled. Sorry mate but such videos are making me unsubscribe.

[@xXnxanatorXx]

You do know rusted boards depending on the type of damage can be repaired unless it's cracked then there's no point even northridgefix and repair this board and he specializes In board repair it's not that hard.

[@UYC.]

You right the console dosent work and , he must have shown the initial logo boot, but rest he did a good job cleaning.

[@dansretrogamingandwrestling]

You do realize it shows you the serial number on the back and they do match so the case is the same and the guy saying it doesn’t power on must not have watched close enough because in the close up it damn sure is on

[@xXnxanatorXx]

@@dansretrogamingandwrestling Yes the serial are the same, and it does power on that's 2 separate boards. The main issue was the Logic Board whether the data board sends power to the logic board which are the Capacitors that are dead, each chip the built in video chip and data chips require a certain charge whether it's a 3.5v to 12v. Those capacitor or caps for short was replaced did you also notice rusting? Even if he did leave the rust and clean the exterior parts and call it a day those rust will cause another short possible a fry to the board rendering it useless then what's the point. The fact that it's a restoration which means retaining a majority of the product that you are trying to repair. Let's use a motherboard for Pcs for an example there's rust and water damage on that board and a dead button cell you plug in the psu and press the power there's lights but no display or bios you take it apart and the battery on the board you can replace it and and call it a day put it back in the case plug it in it powers up next thing the board goes in smoke. Shoulda cleaned the rust and calcium deposit from the water damage. Rust is Iron Oxide which is conductive you leave that on your device is done for. You point out things that are noticeable but have you worked on them yourself have you tried to restore vintage items that's what he's doing so before you through some opinions around check your facts first.

[@UYC.]

@@dansretrogamingandwrestling yes the light works my bad its very low bright but it turn on 👍

[@VTuber_Central]

i used to love these type of videos but alot of fake crap has been surfacing in the past 1-2 yrs, example how'd rust get in so easily? was it waterlogged? if so wouldn't it be unrepairable? also you played it with a pirated cd, does this mean its been mod chipped? doesn't look like anything was soldered onto it for that to happen. Also without testing how did you know what was wrong to replace "X" issue? or you you just unsoldered everything and replaced all the capacitors etc?

[@zetok45]

This was a fake restoration. There were real parts like checking for continuity on the capacitors. The white wires were mod leads to bypass the security of burned disks. Sadly the green light was not on and he was using a different controller and system to play the ending shot. Fake video with real elements.
