I've been playing a lot of Animal Crossing Wild World, and i've been trying to hunt down the damn shark, not the hammerhead shark, the oridinary shark. Yeah, I caught the ugly bastard, lol. So yeah, here's my prize!



Heh, at least there's no Stingrays in Animal Crossing, lmao, sorry for the bad jokes...

Reserection of my iPod and waking up

Well, this is just random, I went to test my iPod to really make sure to myself that a battery connection was loose. And guess what, taa daa! It freaking turns on! after buying £24 worth of tools and batteries it starts to work, this is Murphy's Law in pure pwnage action. Well, at least I'll be able to walk out the door listening to L'arc~En~Ciel, Gackt and Beck (I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me; get crazy with the cheese whiz!). Other then that, I woke up because my Mum wanted me to get stuff out the garage to then find out that it was her way to get me out of bed, grr...

Death of my iPod

I woke up this morning to grab a copy of Ultimate Ghosts and Goblins when I went to grab my iPod and it wouldn't turn on; this was odd because last time I had looked at it, the battery was at least 3/4 full. I tried to charge it, and nothing happened, so I got a little worried when I remembered that when I bought the cabling that one day they sold replacement iPod Batteries too. So I got home with my game and an iPod Battery replacement kit, and well, it wasn't good. I didn't really understand what the poxxy instructions were telling me what to do and I broke the damn tool that is used to open it with... I ended up having to buy a replacement tool on eBay for about £4 that I'll hopefully have by the end of the weekend.

Talking about broken iPods I remember a forum thread about how to replace an iPod Mini battery and how someone discovered that they're iPod Mini wasn't working because the cable from the battery was getting loose and that it needed to be plugged back firmly to the power jumpers inside the iPod. I'm hoping I got the same problem here, because as I said, last time I looked at my iPod it was only 3/4 full. So the Battery can't be dead just yet, I bought the battery replace set more as a backup incase anything really, really bad happens to my iPod. But I think the problem with mine is that the battery to loose and needs to be tightened.

Horde it!!! (part 2)

The problem I had was that the Sega MegaDrive AC adapter is freaking huge, and unlike the NES and SNES AC adapters that have the plug, then a trailing cable, then the transformer. The Megadrive AC adapter has the tranformer on the plug, and as I have almost used all the sockets on my 10 plug extension-cord/powerstrip, I gotta find a way to solve the problem. When I was in the states, I saw these being advertised in some electronis store; Powerstrip Saver. it's simply a teeny tiny 1 socket extension cable that allows you to use big block AC adapters on your powerstrips without wasting sockets. However, thats for the states, and as I live in the UK, it's a different story... They don't sell them. Therefore I went to my local Maplin shop to pick up some cable, and male and female 3 pin sockets, and with a bit of knowledge about plugs...



Wah Lah!

Now I can plug everything in at once!



Tommorow, Horde it part 3; Lacking AV and scarts...

Horde it!!!

Well, today I received my copy of Zelda 2: Link's Adventure and Rhythm Tengoku from eBay.



As well as that I had to clean up my room and I dug up my older machines and tried to see if I can hook EVERYTHING up at once. Well, I failed... 3 consoles out, MegaDrive, Master System and NES. So far I'm using a 10 socket mains extension cord with surge protection, 2 scart/AV switchs, and miles and miles of freaking knotting cables!!!



So yeah, from left to right: DreamCast, GameCube, XBox, PS2, SNES, N64. I gotta find a way to get my MegaDrive, MasterSystem, and NES.

I Have to find a way to plug the big block AC adapters into the 10 plug extension cord.
