I wanted to try out Dune for the first time and it just didn’t power on. I am not ok. I took a look inside and cleaned it, but there’s no obvious loose connections. Today is a sad day for me

If its any hope, a lot of my stuff has survived insane temp changes in storage.
Fingers crossed, maybe I’ll make my first post here documenting their story and where they’ve been. The ps1 specifically though is one of those boxy ones with the big side vents, and it was sticking up out of the box caught right in a draft. I’ll be really surprised if I can get that one up and running, I can see the amount of dirt and moisture that settled in that vent.
Mines also an spch 101 and it sat in storage a couple years or longer. You’ll likely need a new laser , cheap and easy. May as well do a mod chip while youre in there.
A lot of people have done the mod that allows you to play games off a modded memory card, bypassing the error prone cd drive. Seems worth it
I wasn’t even aware of that mod chip, definitely worth it. I’ve had this goofy idea for a while now to set up a corner in my basement with an 80s theme. You know, vintage flooring, lamps, blankets, one of those old futons, and a CRT with my classic consoles. Having something like that down there would be a nice modern convenience without sacrificing the aesthetic.
Thats exactly what I did in my basement office! Behind me is a sharp crt, ps1, vcr, genesis, some other consoles. So nice to leave the phone and laptop in the bedroom and come down here to travel back to better times
