Here is a link to a new mod:

I was scammed once on ebay.  They did nothing, the
second time I was scammed I reported them and didn't
pay for the item.  I go to use ebay several months
later and it says I have an unpaid item and I am
kicked off indefinitly.  I have never dealt with
anyone less professional.

I think it depends on how big a customer you are.  Stuff like--how many
auctions you run, whether you do auctions as "featured" or just go for minimum
cost.

And I've fought with them over auctions that I *knew* were pirated (the
seller even wrote to tell me as much when I questioned him/her!)... and
they did NOTHING.

Weird... I think ebay secretly just messes with certain people in such a
was as to piss us off ;p~

They try to avoid illegal merchandise on the site but sometimes they are
over cautious. I've been bidding on some legit multi cart and they pulled
the auctions thinking they were pirate stuff.

Nope - the blue LED is just for looks. :)

So it turns out eBay decided to cancel my NES auction because of the
disabled lockout chip. It's really ridiculous considering it's
practically 20 year old technology! Sigh.

If anyone is interested in the system and wants to trade, let me know.

That looks pretty cool, but is there any other purpose
to the blue light other than looks?  I think the
disabled lock out chip should be your selling point.
I hate the lockout chip.

Is it possible to write a shell like for the Nes.  It will be like
Linux for the nes, being able to play all of your games without
switching Cargrages!  If Anyone knows a good resorse to Make or
Modify a Nes cargrage for programing, Make addon hardware for the
nes, or Programing in an 8bit eviroment, Please Contact me at

Hey guys. I've been lurking for a while, but figured it was time to
chime in with one of my auctions:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&cate
gory=62054&item=8128653305

It's an NES that I did some modifications on for an upcoming book of
mine. It has a blue LED (done the right way with the proper
current-limiting resistor value to prevent the LED from burning out),
lock-out chip disabled, and a new 72-pin connector. The book will have
details of these hacks, among other things for a bunch of other modern
and classic systems. I'll probably have one or two to give away to the
group, too :)

That's it for now!

Joe

Why would you want a switch in the first place? Won't your modified nes play all games once the lockout chip has been disabled? I have a famiclone which obviously doesn't have a lockout chip and it play all of my nes games just fine. Did I just get lucky?

If anyone here installs a switch remember to have the
switch either on or off before turning on the nes.
flipping the switch with the nes on could cause it to
freeze and you would have to restart your game.

All it takes is two pieces of wire, and something to
put between them to keep from shorting the circuit.  I
recommend using a round toggle switch from radio
shack.  That way you can drill a hole instead of
cutting one.  It makes for a much neater or not so
hacked appearance.

With the NES lockout chip mod has anyone totally removed the chip
then cut the leg of the chip then replaced it? Also has anyone tried
installing a switch so you can turn the chip on and off?

Don't use small light bulbs, go to radioshack and get
LEDs.  They're easy to wire up and they use
signficantly less juice than bulbs do.  You can get
them in differet colors.

Good Afternoon!
    I am starting into a hobby of modding game systems, and my geeks
and I are pretty excited over it. Does anyone have some suggestions
on how to go about wiring lights into the NES board? I want to run
the lights straight off of the same power, so any suggestions on what
kind of lights to use, how to wire them and so on would be great!
Thanks!

(also, please keep the "you're an idiot and will fail" comments to a
minimum... I'm well aware of this already, thank you. :)  )

Thanks for all that information. The pictures arent on one of my
websites so I have no control over them. It was just a link to a
page that I thought people would be interested in.
