    Nintendo DS lite "Altium"

    Hello everyone, 

    I recently bought this DS, and I'am courious if anyone have seen this Version before, since I did not found any hints about it online.

    The blue logo is professionally printed using the pad printing process.

    Only found out, that Altium is an australian software company, design printed circuit boards, and Nintendo is using their software.

    Thanks 🙂✌️

    As you pointed out, Nintendo uses them for PCB design, in fact Nintendo uses Altium, Orcad, and Allegro for this. I wonder if this was a gift to Altium perhaps. While the serial is a little strange without a barcode, I have seen DS Lite's without a barcode and similar prefixes before.

    If I had to really guess, I'm going with a gift to Altium from Nintendo that simply over time, made it on the streets.

    Videos of people restoring consoles are pretty relaxing to watch

    I stumbled upon this the Odd Tinkering Youtube channel recently, and I have to say, it's pretty satisfying to watch old consoles being restored to their former glory. Anyone else enjoy videos like these?

    That one of the only accurate channel about restaurations, you should check Tysytube too. Others are mostly fake or the guy just throw everything and build a console with aliexpress parts sadly.

    Spectrum90 Yea the moment the ramen comes out to fix a hole, that's when I stop watching.

    These do appear to be legit repairs, which is great to see. Should be a list of fake repair channels (though I assume one is already online, not just from our hobby but from other hobby's as well).

    ANYONE heard of this? Suppose to be an early snes dev kit... with matching accessories!

    SNES dev kit + mouse + keyboard with snes connection
    SNES dev kit + mouse + keyboard with snes connection

    Gonna cross post from the Discord here on my observations and findings thus far, but so far I can't ID this unit. The mouse in the picture has a scroll wheel which didn't come out until the mid 90's, however one now deleted X post, of which Google partially has cache of, that was in Japanese, translated into English says "Does anyone remember what the mysterious Super Nintendo equipment used at the Yume Matsuri venue was doing?"

    It had hash tags for the following: Hudson, Caravan, Yume Matsuri

    So, it very well might be from the mid 90's perhaps, so not "early", if anything just before the N64 launched.

    I'm still trying to track down the logo on the front though, I know I've seen that logo once before.

    Found the only information I could find on it: https://luigiblood.neocities.org/gameprocessor

  • There's a couple brands that haven't been added to the page yet. Another would be Tiger, since they made the Tiger LCD handhelds, the Tiger R-Zone, Tiger Game.com and Tiger Gizmondo. There's also no Samsung Nuon, no Nokia N-Gage, no Philips CD-i, no Pioneer LaserActive, any Commodore/Amiga hardware (such as the Commodore 64 Games System, Commodore CDTV, or the Amiga CD32), Game Wave, Zeebo, Steam Deck, and even consoles from companies they already have listed, like the Bandi Super Vision 8000.

    Edit: Correction, the Philips CD-i is on consolevariations, it's just under the Magnavox branding. I was unaware that Philips also made the Magnavox brand.

    Fake Collection Users (aka I Have Everything Users) Rant

    Why do this site do nothing about them? You can add everything to your collection without proof, even if it's proven to be 1 in existence and is stored in a museum. 

    Yet admins not even delete those items from their collection.

    This site needs to ask proof of ownership at least for rare things.

    It's a problem that needs to be addressed.

    The admins and a few well known users do know about this issue. If you were active in the Discord in 2023, some solutions were thought of, but then again, I wouldn't expect you to know about those, so here are some excerpts from that announcement:

    "it should be NOT COMPLICATED for the user to prove ownership, for example: uploading a picture of the unit, with a paper with their name on it. too much of a hustel." "some high end collectors have around 20 limited editions in their collection, so it has to be easy for them to add things in their collection without a any trouble" "we respect someone's privacy as well, so private collectors should also have a way of adding," "Trust can be included, when someone has 2 / 3 limited editions, we believe he owns the 4th as well."

    Last I've heard, this system is still in the works, but as a regular user of this site, I can't update you on where the process is now in it's current state. I'm only here just to let you know that they, the admins, know.

    I was actually thinking about ranting about this also. Thanks for doing it for me!

    Its like a one of a kind Gamecube signed by JFK with a pee stain on it and yet seven people "apparently" own its

    I've seen this a handful of times. I'm not really sure how they could even go about avoiding the issue, because requiring more proof to say you own an item would be an immediate turn-off for any newcomers to the site. I think the solution would be to look into any accounts with more than 100 items, and investigate their account. Usually these 'own everything' users created their account recently, don't update the default profile picture, and don't provide a description or photos on their profile.

    That would be a quick way to catch them. Another would be to monitor accounts to see if any are adding multiple extremely rare items to their page. I once saw an account that claimed to own the Atari Panther prototype, an Atari Lynx prototype and a Sega Pluto prototype. Obviously nobody can own all three, so it's clear the account was just adding anything.

    Another good method would be adding a report system, so if you see a spam account like this, anybody could just report them, fill in their reasoning and the reports are manually reviewed by someone who works on the website.

    Hey :)

    We are well aware of this issue, and the fact that it bothers serious collectors. We are working on a solution that is already being tested by us, but it isnt just as easy as a lot of people think. I was gonna have a talk with the team in like 2 days anyway and im gonna bring up yalls concerns and thoughts to this, the feedback is much appreciated. But like KoolAid3 said, we dont want to overcomplicate the system for newcoming users and like you said "turn them off". So there needs to be a balance in that system to make it go smoothly. Also most of the news when it comes to changes will be announced on the Discord server first.

    Also if you have some particular profiles in mind, please send me their names privately via a DM in discord under the name __ kodiak __ or any feedback etc in the cv-feedback-suggestions channel on the CV discord :)

    I hope this could clear up some questions

    Best Regards

    Kodiak

    How many were aware of the two PS1 GPU versions?

    While many these days see things like PS4 Pro, and PS5 Pro, not many are familiar with the PS1 and it's silent upgrade.  On launch in Japan, and the most earliest of US units (I think for the first year and a half?), they ran on a GPU that had some limitations.  For example, shaded polygons that are textured, lose the 8-bit shading and therefore get treated with 5-bit shading (visible banding).  They also ran on dual ported VRAM (2x 16-bit chips), whereas the later versions could shade entirely in 8-bit precision and used a single 32-bit SGRAM video memory IC.  The early GPU was also slower at alpha blending, but *faster* at blitting, making it a little better with the 2D games, but not so much with later PS1 releases with a lot of alpha blending such as FF8.

    I'll attach a picture to show the differences.  Monsters Inc. Scream Team, and Tomb Raider are good games to check the GPU revision as the banding is just so obvious in them.

    Left is an original PS1 revision A GPU, whereas the right picture is from my SCPH-5501 (the later revised GPU).

    Another slight fact, is that if you get a very early launch SCPH-1001 prior to Christmas of '95, don't be surprised if the picture is slightly darker.  It's actually not a fault of the hardware, but a bug in the boot ROM (this would be version 2.0 for the US release), as it accidentally is using NTSC-J's 0 IRE, not the NTSC-M 7.5 IRE standard.  This was rather quickly fixed by Christmas with a patched boot ROM.

    Two pictures of the same scene from Monsters Inc. Scream Team.  On the left there's visible banding in the picture while still being dithered, but on the right the picture is perfectly smooth with no banding, and still dithering properly.  The system on the left is mid 95, the system on the right is late 97.<br>

    (I should mention, both pictures are not from the same TV/monitor. Left was from my TV, right was from my computers monitor using a RetroTink and apparently forgot what focussing was.)
