Mi primera videoconsola!! Se que la tengo guardada en alguna parte de la casa, comprada en 1987 el mismo año que llego a Europa nos la regalo mi papá a mi y a mi hermano. No ha sido encendida durante ya casi 30 años! Tengo pendiente tratar de hacerlo, aunque conservo la esperanza me supongo que es casi imposible que arranque. Pero sin duda tu video me va a ayudar a conocer más sobre su funcionamiento. Que belleza de máquina (se que muchos la consideran fea, pero para mi es maravillosa) Gracias Tito por tus maravillosos videos, te descubrí hace un tiempo y considero a tu canal el más detallista en cuanto a modding y conservación del hardware de videojuegos.

A bit better? I would say it looks a lot better in regards to those scratches front and center. Always a welcome sight when someone can resurrect a SMS from the abyss, as it's one more amazing console in the wild. As there was never nearly enough of these amazing systems sold, which was a real shame, as it's one of the best.

@Daudgrim 3 месяца назад

It is actually quite common to find master systems with the protective film on, I never removed it on my childhood one either, think it was just a think people didn't do/forgot to do, + it was quite hard to remove even when it was new.

I didn’t know anyone who had a NES and Mario was not very well known back then and the arcade was king. The chance to play the likes of R-Type, Wonder Boy & the Sega arcade games was like all my dreams come true to 10 year old me. Thank you for all your videos , they are brilliant !!

The SMS was my first home console. My father bought it and a bunch of games at a garage sale for $20 in the late 80's. For years I'd thought my parents sold it, but I recently stumbled upon it in my mom's attic and I've been meaning to re-cap it. So this video was well timed for me! If it doesn't turn on, I'll be sure to check out those three possible problem areas.

Ultrasonic cleaners are awesome for these jobs. Ultrasonic dip in a non-corrosive cleaner + water displacement with isopropyl + a couple hours in a dry box to be on the safe side pretty much can't be beat for PCBs. I pretty much put every part through a bath in my ultrasonic cleaner

@GameSack 4 месяца назад

From what I'm told, the most dangerous thing for a Master System is trying to power it with an NES Power Adapter. Not sure if there's a fuse internally that pops or if it's damaging the voltage regulator like in this video, but that'll do it. Funny enough, powering the NES with an SMS or a Genesis power adapter is actually preferred over the NES one. Throw those NES ones away!

Whenever I refurb a console I always replace the 7805 with a modern upgrade, such as a LM7805C or 7805V, which are more linear switching buck convertors. You can also improve long term reliability and reduced heat by going with a 2A model.

@tatecheddar 2 месяца назад

For that plastic polishing you really should bust out a dremel with a little buffing wheel. It makes it so much faster and then it actually works. Hand polishing should be saved for last when there's literally almost no scratches left other than the most fine ones that can only be seen under light. Maybe even an electric palm buffer. The surface is pretty big.

I'm Brazilian and this was the video game of my life, not the first one I came across but the first one my parents bought for me. And yes, here in Brazil it was very popular even more than Nintendo, all thanks to the company Tectoy. A curiosity is that the Brazilian versions of this console use two input voltages, the source has three pins, 9v, 16v and GND.

@TheCoolDave 3 месяца назад

Nice to see a Master System come back from what might have ended up in a dump somewhere. Nice work. I was one, who had a NES with a Master System sitting right next to it when they were current, I enjoyed the Master System as much as I did the NES. And Phantasy Star is easy one of the best 8-bit games ever made. Also, one of my top 5 favorite games of all time. I even have the "Sega Help sheet" for it, when you could call Sega when you had a problem in a game, and they would mail you a walkthrough. I do re-play it ever 3-4 years. There is a retranslation to the game but, you need a rom cart to play the patched rom, it is impressive to see the text changes in the game. If you want to change it up a little, they did release a sort of remaster of it, in Japan only for the PS2 (Sega Ages). There is an English translation that was done pretty well. It's impressive to see the change and a worthy play if you're a fan. I love seeing retro consoles given a new life. They can last 100's of years if taken care of.

It depends on the situation. I like to remove them for a more thorough cleaning. Also, if they we're leaking (which they weren't in this case) I would remove them and treat the area with white vinegar before ultrasonic cleaning. If the caps look to be in good condition, it should be fine to keep them on. Cheers!

A really useful mod you can do is the PAUSE button mod. Once done you can re-wire a Mega Drive controller or add a small microswitch to the original controller. Once done you can press Pause from the controller. If you're going for a wireless controller set up then I recommend pairing a RetroBit BT Mega Drive controller with a BlueRetro adapter and remapping the unused shoulder buttons on the controller
