[Editorial] Guess what’s next on I ❤ Old Games! – 16/07/17

Hello guys,

Unfortunately this week I was quite poor because I haven’t got the wi-fi connection for 3-4 days. I’ve been out of town for several days and, even though I had my laptop with me I’ve been very busy and I haven’t written anything; I trust next week would be way more proficient 🙂

However something did happen: I’ve found something really interesting in a second hand shop a few days ago and I will dedicate a post about it. For the moment I just tell you that is an handheld console. No more tips for you 😉

Oh, and I’ve also bought some useful tools so I can start my practice in modding/hacking/repairing games and consoles. I’ve been watching a lot of videos and tutorials lately and I’ve seen that most of the most common damages or issues on games/consoles can be fixed very easily, so I want to try myself to restore them. It’s smoething I’ve never done before because I’0m very skeptic on my abilityt as a restorer and my experience with toold, soldering irons and stuff like that is zero, but maybe I can learn something new and, who knows, it could be useful one day!

One of the pros when you have no wi-fi is that you read more something “traditional” so I’ve almost finished the last Retro Gamer issue so I hope next one will be delivered soon.
