Saved from a dumpster
My family member bought a house recently and it was full of stuff. The owners were hoarders. The previous owners passed away, and their family members took what belongings they wanted and sold the house filled with garbage and other junk. While helping my family throw everything out, I stumbled across a box that was in a pile of stuff being thrown into a dumpster. All I could see was the SNES and zapper sticking out of the top and nearly had a heart attack. I quickly salvaged everything I could find....! can't believe it. All this stuff was about to be thrown away!
At the bottom of the box was a sealed copy of Mario Bros 3! I'm going to attempt to get the SNES and gameboy working, I ran out of time today. Tomorrow I go back and see if I can find anymore stuff... Not pictured is wires, hook up cables and other stuff. I'm so glad I was able to save all this stuff, and figured you guys would appreciate it seeing it
what's the most overhated game you've ever played?
[Nintendo Switch 2] Pokemon Legends: Z-A $34.99 at Gamestop
gamestop.comI turned a PSone console and controller into framed retro gaming art 🎮♻️
I created two custom framed teardown artworks using an original PSone console and a PSone controller.
Instead of throwing old gaming hardware away, I carefully disassembled every part and transformed them into retro-inspired wall decor.
The goal was to preserve the identity and nostalgia of the PlayStation era while giving damaged electronics a second life through art.
From the motherboard and optical drive to the controller buttons and internal circuits, every component became part of the final composition.
This is part of my Phonorama project, where electronic waste is transformed into collectible gaming artwork instead of becoming trash. ♻️
Rate this combo !

What are your expectations for the next playstation handheld?
What are your expectations for the next year's (MAYBE) upcoming native handheld for song after 15 years since there are some rumours which I read. Like performance wise and looks and features things. What would you like to see the most in that?
Is there any particular feature you would for sure like to see in it?
