I bring life back to old retro gaming consoles. I am hoping to work my way up to repairing a Nintendo Switch and the OG Xbox One. My specialty is the NES.
My games and other accessories pickup from the past week. The NES and the small PAC man arcade containers had mint candies inside them. The 3D dot hero game is a hidden PS3 gem, and I had to add this to my small PS3 collection. #pokemon #pokemonstadium #ps3 #animalcrossing #retrogamer
I may be a little late on this post and saddened to hear the passing of Toriyama Akira. When I was about 14 years old, I started to collect the original Dragon Ball manga series. I remember when shipment of each book took 3 months to deliver from Japan to Canada 😂. It also got me to start drawing his work and I actually won a high school art contest at the time. First photo is part of my original Japanese Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z manga. My second photo of my recent drawing of Trunks. RIP Toriyama-san 😢

My oldest son (kyleplayz2k - YouTube) persuaded me to start and finish off Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (BOTW). I am still on the Great Plateau and finished off 2 temples. My first impressions is that I am amazed by the game play of BOTW versus a link to the past and Ocarina of Time. I will track my BOTW progress on my YouTube channel. Thanks for stopping by 😊.

Lately, collecting for the PS3 has been my go to console and lovin the Sony exclusive games (eg: God of War, Uncharted, The Last of Us). I also received red pocket money from my mother in law and so happy with this gift 🧧😊. #ps3 #killzone #thelastofus #retrogamer #playstation #sony
Todays is Chinese New Years in my household. However, I am staying home today along with my oldest son. We are both sick and missing the delicious Chinese New Year's feast with my in laws. I took a few screenshots and video from Horizon Forbidden West. This is Aloy's flyby above Las Vegas Strip, admiring the Chinese New Years lights. Enjoy!
Today, I received my Retrotink 2X pro. I managed to get my Nintendo N64 connected to my Elgato game capture and to PC. So far, impressed however the graphics is slightly blurred and not upscaled. Probable needs the mClassic for upscaling. Thanks for stopping by. #retrotink2x #retrotink #retrotink2xpro #retrogaming #retrogamer
Today’s games and console pickup. I managed to get a decent PlayStation 3 with few games from FB market today. Unfortunately not the backwards compatible version. Actually, bought it to play the original Uncharted and Last of Us games 😜. I also picked up a copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for my boys. My cat for attention 🐈. Enjoy your day! ☀️ 😎 #nintendo #sony #playstation #playstation3 #retrogaming #ps3 #mariokart8deluxe
Game pickup this weekend from the thrift store. Found these 3 Uncharted (PS3) series (Drake’s Fortune, Among Thieves, Drake’s Deception). I do not know much about this series and was interested after watching the Uncharted movie starring Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg. #ps3 #playstation #uncharted #drake #retrogaming
My boys and I , we were having a kart battle on one of my favourite game Mario Kart Double Dash JP version. A bit rusty on some of the course maps and getting use to the power slide moves. Had to start at 50 cc engine size and hope to make my way up 😂
Another game pickup to add a loose copy of NA version Banjo Kazooie, for my Nintendo N64 collection. I played the Japanese version years ago, but yet to complete 😅. Played a while tonight and realized the difficulty in the N64 controls 😝. My cat 🐱 for attention 😂. Good night 😴 #nintendo #n64 #n64games #banjookazooie #retrogamer #retrogaming
Today’s game pickup a sealed Red Dead Redemption (RDR) for my Xbox 360. Hard to believe this game is almost 14 years old and should have picked this up back in the day. I was more into the Halo franchise (eg: Halo Reach, Halo Wars) at the time. My cat 🐱 for attention 😂. Have a nice day 🙂 #xbox #xbox360 #rdr #reddeadredemption #rockstargames #retrogamer #cat #catlovers
