Seob Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Just found this website http://www.the-liberator.net/site-files/retro-games/hardware/index.htm They have all kinds of consoles and computers dismantled and photographed. So if you ever wondered how the inside of you're console looks like, but you didn't dare to open it, here you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkiker2089 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 In a similar vein keep an eye out for the Vanamo project. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1699256938/the-vanamo-online-game-museum He will do the same with consoles and controllers.

Dripfree Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Didn't dare to open It? Thats usually the first thing I do when I find a new treasure. Open it up and clean it inside and out. Pretty sweet site very good reference material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatPix Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Same here. out of curiosity and for cleaning/visual inspection (this is how I spotted a broken capacitor lead in my Bally Arcade. I don't wanna think of the consequences if I had tried to power it on with the big cap not wired... Maybe nothing, maybe... nothing on screen). And same goes for controllers. Especially flat pads like SNES/NES ones... oh my, sometime you have more dirt than electronics inside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seob Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 I don't have trouble opening a console. Do it very often, modding g7000, addind db9 ports to the cdtv, replace capacitors on thd cd32, gamegear, and very soon on one of my vectrexs. It's for those that are affraid of breaking things.
