I don't personally use them, but I've heard they're very good. My experiences with most "amazon basics" stuff has been really positive overall.

Good day guys. I got a question for you. I have my Sony Trinitron 36" CRT in my setup. I need a male to male component cables that will leave my Impact Acoustic component switch and go to that CRT. I noticed you guys used the Amazon basic component cables from Amazon located here. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D5H8FBU/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_4?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;psc=1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D5H8FBU/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_4?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;psc=1</a> What do you guys think about these cables?

So are you above a bedroom or anything? Just wondering how bad the sound penetrates down. My game room is a second bedroom, so it's close, and i don't like headphones, so it's a constant struggle for volume management.

Hey Jesse! Sorry I didn’t respond to your email earlier. I didn’t get this off eBay. It’s a WWE Brawlstick that I got from amazon when they were on sale cheap and put my own parts in it. Then removed the top decal image and then took steel wool to the residue etc. It’s a PS3 stick.

Can I ask where you picked up that crazy looking arcade stick with the bare metal top plate? It's a dead ringer for one I used to own but sold on ebay years ago, should be a 360 madcatz se with all Siemitsu parts in it if it is.

Make sure you don't use the essential oils with the cats in the room. They're unable to process the chemicals and it will cause cancer in cats.

That was neat .. Thanks for sharing.. Cool idea about the command hooks.. I should have done with that with my router too!

I’ll try to talk him into it!

My Life in Gaming

Nope! I just had an extra one because I found a brand new Wii fit U at goodwill for 5 dollars. Pretty worthless but you never know!

The PVMs I have all have s-video inputs and outputs so I can chain them them

Does Try really need a Wii Fit Balance Board?

Joel Crane

Thanks Coury, that was pretty cool! You know what would be kinda cool is to see some MLiG *viewers* setups. I get the feeling that there are some pretty interesting setups and ideas out there.

Thanks for the tour! Sophia looks sweet, also sounds like a talker like my cat.

Do you have a link for the power rockers?

I use multiple power stripes for my game consoles as well, that ultimately share the same battery backup my HTPC and DOS gaming machine does. Having adding/changed configurations the tidy wiring always becomes a chaotic mess here too. Haha Especially since I've still got to redo some wiring behind the audio amplifiers in my setup since I've had some changes done with the subwoofer system.

Love the C64 with SD card. :) I am thinking of getting an SD solution for mine too. How do you get S-Video into your PVM? I would like to connect my C64 to my PVM but I currently have no way to do it with my setup (gscartw into PVM 20L4)

Are you pretty happy with the 55"? Looks like our viewing distance is similar I have my eye on the 65" model. I currently have a 60" so I can either lose 5" or gain 5". 65" is darn big for the distance. It's a bummer your wiring went to heck.

RetroGamerRandomness

I love that you put the stickers I sent you on your pvm! Your wires are scary, smart thinking to cut the power when you’re done at night (cut the power? How can they cut the power they’re animals man) you know the reference...

My Life in Gaming

No, i only use them on the consoles and accessories surge protectors. If you look, when I show the rocker switches, you also see a different surge protector mounted on the wall. That one has no rocker switch and has my TV, Router and a couple of other things plugged into it that I use regularly without game systems. Also, as you can see...this is why we script our show! We'd forget to mention so much!

My Life in Gaming

Ah, i must have missed that. The few edits I made during this is where I said I'd explain something later and never did. The reason for that lately is because I do alot of my capturing at my PC. The monitor that i can use as a full screen playback for premiere has a second input where I have the Zone 2 from my receiver going into it. That way I can play games over there as well. I've just found myself dong that a lot lately.

Also, do you use that rocker switch to completely cut power to all the devices, including the OLED TV? I was just wondering, because I know LG has said not to do that because it prevents the auto compensation cycle from running after you’ve watched the TV for a certain number of hours. I think maybe four.

Sean Quinn

At around 21:15 you show your OLED and say that you don’t do much gaming at it and would explain in just a minute, but you never get back to it. Did I understand that right, that you don’t do much gaming on it?
