~13 hours to go and still a bunch of stuff to do on the backend before e-mails go out. If you have one, SuperStation is an awesome console for CRT gaming.

My friends, please repost this repair tip!
I see many people servicing Wii systems and they absolutely wreck both the screw covers and bumpers and it makes me cringe. 100C heat for about 8 seconds will make short work of the adhesive, allowing you to re-use them!
Enjoy!

My friends, the blurriness of the 2CHIP SNES varies from system to system. The DAC inside PPU2 can have a very wide swing. Just know that my Edge-Enhancer will resolve these issues REGARDLESS of how bad!
No special tricks or sampling. Just the hardware doing its job as designed.

I maintain that @electronshep.bsky.social's ElectronAVE HDMI kit for the Wii is the absolute best Wii HDMI modification. It's both affordable and very intelligently designed to work in all Wii consoles (excluding the shitty Wii Family Edition).

My friends, I want to leave you with a before and after comparison of the video output coming from an RGB revised 2CHIP SNES that I just serviced.
This is using GENERIC Tink settings -- No optimized sampling, no brightness/gain fixes. I want you to see what my hardware really does all on its own!

A year ago, I had the idea to open up an Xbox controller plug to see if an ESP32-PICO would fit in it. It barely did. Took 10 months to turn this idea into a shipped product!!!
