That is freaking nuts! Don’t forget to jam in all new large caps.

[@NotYourBuddyFriend_]

This is so, so, so cool! I love seeing the guts of the PS and it's incredible that you dove right into the soldering work. And of course...I rewatched 16:57 for the good stuff 😂 Nothing beats that boot screen.

[@Magneteco]

Every time I hear that boot screen I get goosebumps!

[@joezar33]

Be cool if 1 day someone figures out how to put apps on these modded old school game consoles like KZbin, Netflix etc ... be interesting to turn on the N64, Dreamcast hell even the Sega Master System, NES and get a option to see something like that modded be kind of over the top awesome...

[@AkaiAmeUltsch]

I have that same tool kit, it has helped me out immensely!

[@Magneteco]

The magnetic bits are a game changer!

[@AkaiAmeUltsch]

@@Magneteco personally, I’m not sure why nobody is talking about budget sets like the Strebito set. It’s a crying shame, but I feel that the budget sets are just as good, even though they aren’t a “Recognizable Brand” that has been showing up in vids from well known tech-tubers. I feel like the word needs to spread about the wonders of the “Just as Good” side of tech and the tools you can use. Thank you for coming to this Ted talk.

I always use GUI Format to make large SD cards Fat 32. It works great.

[@Magneteco]

It's a staple for any PC user for sure! I love that program for the simple fact that it forces FAT32 on whatever you want!

[@dcwlgaming2416]

Wow nice job

[@Magneteco]

Thank you sir!

[@BongWeasle]

Well done on giving the install a go. I have an xstation sitting here and I am trying to pluck up the courage to do the same. I am putting it into an SCPH 1002 so les pins to lift.

[@Magneteco]

Oh thats awesome! I recommend taking the plunge and the best advise I can give is to simply take you're time and walk away for a bit if you're getting frustrated. Let me know how it turns out!

[@thomasstanford80191]

It ~literally~ blows my mind this is done now When I was a kid I often wondered if there would ever be a thriving mod community for these consoles

[@Magneteco]

It's quite incredible what the PlayStation modding community has done. There's wireless controller, running games from SD Cards, and even HDMI Out options! I love it!

[@morrisdennison8039]

Honest dope video but why wouldn’t I just do something similar with the ps2 fat and get the best of both worlds is there more pros on the original ps1 or is it like a collection/restoration to give those original units a longer life span.

[@Magneteco]

The process of playing is 100% for restoring the PS1 system for a longer lifespan. Playing PS1 games on a PS2 is perfectly acceptable even though you need to play them off a USB drive if you do not own the original disc. You can play PS2 games off a HDD but not PS1 games. Mod chipping a PS2 is also really difficult so for a PS2, I recommend a softmod over a hardmod.

[@morrisdennison8039]

@@Magneteco thank you for the info to be honest I’ve been interested in setting up one of those raspberry pi mini servers to host all my games, but I only have a raspberry pi zero and every tutorial is using a pi 3, I have the same issue with my Dreamcast, I am passionate about video game collecting but never really done the restoring and repairing aspect mostly keep things factory but these are pretty cool.

[@Magneteco]

@@morrisdennison8039 I'm not too familiar with Raspberry Pi but what I do know, is that you can purchase a Dreamcast ODE and there is no Soldering involved. You just replace the laser with the ODE. I will absolutely do a video on that too.

[@morrisdennison8039]

@@Magneteco I would love that lol and I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of game-tech us but they sell aftermarket PSU replacement specifically designed for the consoles. Only issue with them is if you buy a cheap power supply. Just subbed can’t wait to see what comes next

[@Magneteco]

@@morrisdennison8039 Yes I am familiar. The main power supply is replaced by a small unit. The power is then transferred to a block outside of the console for better cooling. I've been debating on that one for a bit.

[@GLXY23]

cant wait to try this out one day when i buy one, then have the balls to do this

[@Magneteco]

You got this my friend. I belive in you!

[@bertosudu9506]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@natalya_volochay]

Does it still use ps1 hardware ? I wanst able to watch the whole video

[@Magneteco]

It does! You're just adding to the motherboard and replacing the laser with a the XStation board.

[@Guardhousetv]

I want this but im scared to put this together lmfao

[@Magneteco]

I will help!

[@cesarborzi4291]

can you play multiple discs games with this? such as resident evil 2 or ff vii

[@Magneteco]

There is a way to do it, I have yet to encounter a game that's multiple discs since the install. There is documentation on how to do it though.

[@cesarborzi4291]

@@Magneteco Yeah, I suppose you have to burn them together.

[@Magneteco]

Played through Resident Evil 2 recently. You can set a boot order on the XStation. You can simply press a button on the menu when choosing your game! In the case of Resident Evil 2, you press the button and and a "1" will appear next the game title [Disc 1]. You can press the same button on another title [Disc 2] and a "2" will appear next to it. All you have to do is open the lid on the PS1 and close to load disc 2. Pretty neat!

[@cesarborzi4291]

@@Magnetecoyeah, ive finally purchased my xstation. You mean the square button for queueing? I think thats the option you are talking about.

[@Magneteco]

@cesarborzi4291 That's the one. Congratulations on your Xstation purchase!

[@garethbeaton8414]

Why not emulator cheep fast tablet it's totally easy to pop dremcas and psx psp on

[@Magneteco]

I do that as well. I like restoring old consoles bud. It's a fun hobby.

[@codeninja1]

Solder is pronounced the same way as when you said "soldering gun" you said it like "soddering". Strange cause when you didnt say gun you pronounced the L. Just nitpicking an otherwise great video.

[@Magneteco]

No worries! Believe it or not, English is not my first language so I will be considerate of what you said! Thanks for enjoying the video!

[@C.I...]

@@Magneteco The L is pronounced in solder. The clue is the fact it has an L in it.

[@Magneteco]

@@C.I... I'm pretty sure it's one of those US and UK language differences where the same word is pronounced differently. I'll look into it.

[@zlk718]

The L in solder is silent, at least in the American pronunciation.

[@codeninja1]

@@zlk718 that's what I'm saying. When saying "solder" it was pronounced "Soul-der" but pronounced "soldering gun" as "Soddering gun". Weird to mispronounce it one way and not both.
