Do you also have a spare KSM-440BAM? I need one for my PSone.

+/- I have a KSM-440BAM and a KSM-440AEM here. The KSM-440BAM is brand new from ebay including the extension cable so it can still work in the older PS1. I'm assuming the KSM-440AEM I have should still be working also since it's the PS1 motherboard that has the fault. On the lookout for another one now. I actually seen one for €40 including: Crash Bandicoot 2, Gran Turismo 2, Driver 2 and Theme Hospital. Also a controller and memory card. I'm low on cash this week so I'm hoping the seller will still have it next week as it's worth it with those games, especially Crash.

oh no, not one of those Chinese clones again – they’re poorer quality than the genuine Sony laser

+ I'm almost done thinking of the alliteration game so that it does not cross with other games on this forum (i hope).
- I can't think of a good title.
- The title I eventually come up with will probably be terrible. :oops2:
- Edit: I feel nervous about this. What if the mods don't like it???

Yeah and to make matters worse it's no use to me either because the PlayStation is the problem now. The KSM-440AEM is the original model at least.

- The winds seem to have died down, which makes me kind of sad.
- I just missed out on a 100$ opportunity. Aww.. :sad:

+ My Atari Jaguar arrived today
- No game yet to test it until Rayman arrives
+ Very surprised to find that it's an NTSC console instead of a PAL one which makes it even better
- I'll need a SCART to test it as the NTSC tuner isn't going to work on my TV.
+/- I can't test it yet either until I get the game. I thought it was broken but I read online that it won'r power on with no game inserted.

+ It's about 90% better than it was
- the top right corner and the bottom left corner are still a bit off but to get them 2 right it ruins the rest of the picture altogether.

+ Found out Spyro could get a remake! Yay!
+ Found the Spyro thread within the depths of the ocean of forgotten topics. Bumped it! :D
- I'll be double posting if I post on the Official Mario topic again.

- being as fussy as I am I messed with the CRT again and made it worse.
+ I managed to get it better again though even though it took me about an hour.
- The top right will always have the red firing a bit too high unless I get magnetic strips and go through the effort but it's probably not worth it because it's not really bad enough imo.
