Hey there, my lovely nerdphews! I'm your Cool Uncle Marisa, and I like to tinker and play with electronics - both new and retro. I also like other things. And I want to share them with you in a way that's fun and accessible. Hope you'll come on over and stick around a little while :^)
Cool Uncle's Corner: The Panic Playdate is my Favorite Thing, Let Me Tell You Why
The Playdate has brought back handheld gaming. With numerous games that share the same charm and creativity as ye olde Nintendo handhelds, and the pick-up and play nature of early app store mobile games (Fruit Ninja? Tap Tap Revenge??) that have since fallen to ads and microtransactions, this little yellow square is my favorite modern game console. Now let me ramble at you about it.
If you're interested in trying any of the games available on itch.io but have yet to commit to a Playdate, you can download the Playdate simulator and give them a whirl. The footage in this video was recorded using the Mirror app, but unfortunately some games did not play well with the app, so let me know if y...

I adore the Playstation 2 and while a handful of mods have become commonplace, the region-changing MechaPwn can be a bit harder to dig up info on. Yet, it's the mod I use the most and find the most useful as I now own two Japanese region PS2s. Here is a quick and dirty tutorial on how to run MechaPwn on your PS2!

Cool Uncle Reviews: GKD Pixel - An Emulation Handheld that's Actually a Gadget
Просмотров 8 тыс.Месяц назад
The GKD Pixel received a fair bit of praise for build quality as well as a fair bit of criticism for size and price upon release. Now it is almost, if not completely, out of production. Meaning it's the perfect time for a review. I am adamant about original hardware, but for once, an emulation handheld has captured my heart and my attention. But why? Let's take a look at the features less frequ...

Cool Uncle Reviews: The Supernote E-Notebook - Repairable, Comfortable, and Low-Tech
Просмотров 41 тыс.Месяц назад
I hate the term 'productivity tool', but it encapsulates the Supernote E-Notebook so well. In a world where we are inundated by distractions within every corner of our electronic devices, the Supernote focuses more on productivity and sustainability. Let's see if it delivers what it promises and if there's more to this device than meets the eye. EDIT: Apple fan-boys, stop commenting 'you can ch...

Cool Uncle Mods: Repairing and IPS Modding the Wonderswan Color
Просмотров 4,3 тыс.3 месяца назад
When I first saw the Wonderswan, I was reminded of the knockoff toys you saw in every shop in the 00s. But looking deeper, this handheld had enough potential to hold its own against Nintendo's handhelds, even exceeding their handhelds' capabilities in several areas. So what happened? And what's it like today? Let's bring this Wonderswan Color into the modern day and ruminate on what is to come....

I bought rule of rose of Ali express it tells me to use on a unlock ps2 what does that mean ?
I launch mechapwn but then it doesnt have the change region options 🤔 it only says restore nvram backup?
What model number is your PS2? Is it hard-modded? Are you using cross-region FMCB?
Mario Land 2 ! What a classic !
i lost my original gamecube in a storage unit in like, 2012, and i’ve just used a modded wii for playing gamecube games for the past few years. after just having learned about this, i bit the bullet and bought a new gamecube and a flippydrive. i am extremely excited for mine to come in a few months. the nostalgia trip i’m going to go on will be amazing
do you need to keep the usb drive in after installation?
Nope :)
This hit my algorithm right on time. I recently picked up two GBCs and a pocket.
Nice! There's a ton of better options now, I have a video on Bucket Mouse's MGBC that I highly recommend over the chop-method.
I think you should have mentioned that with MechaPwn you can play burned/backup PS1(!) and PS2 disks
É possível em versões 3900x?
"I'm not buying you your new wives." is a legendary comment.
i basically never comment on videos but i gotta say it's so nice and refreshing to see someone more casual in the retro handheld space! also someone with smaller hands lol, i feel so represented, so thank you :)) i ordered my rg28xx like a minute ago (the white one with purple buttons, but im a teal girlie so i ordered some swap-out buttons too) and now im stuck waiting for it, but this video made it a little easier ^^
Ahh, thank you! I'm excited for youu. Custom buttons always make everything better too~
Install MuOS Marisa, you're absolutely gonna love it (and love your Anbernic devices even more)
Playstation Emulator on Gamecube and Wii got an Update. Finally after 16 years.
I also have a Japanese ps2
Wait wait; back up. Are u telling me we are allowed to have our own opinions and preferences? The audacity 😮
Indeed Cassie’s are cheaper than Records and as soon as they are at least level II the sound is comparable.I was surprised by the sound of The Clapton unplugged on tape.Love your musical taste and I saw som Lasha La Lionora tape 😊very good
11:49 🤯 🐧
do you print the art on regular paper or picture paper?
Glossy art paper. Photo paper would be too thick, I think, but it'd work fine.
Came here for the playdate review (waiting to hopefully receive mine soon) - but I have to ask: where did you get your jacket? It looks so cool!
Thank you! It's from Lazy Oaf!
@@yourcoolunclemarisa Awesome! Thanks 😄
Your point about there being no true handhelds anymore was like a crazy revelation - feels like something I felt at the back of my head but I didn't know how to put it into words. And thanks for the Core Fault shoutout!
Thanks so much for watching this! I really enjoy your devlogs too :D
I have that exact same big boy toshiba tv wth 😭
its a good one
snes9xgx- gc.dol,mgba_libretro_ngc.dol and so much more. NES,NGP,WSWAN,ATARI800,GENESIS or MAME. So much.
You can also run many Emulators.
There is an extension adapter made for the sd drive to go where the glow light is inside of the disk drive area by lazer bear you didn't install
I love it when people leave comments without watching the video 💚🩷
The smugness in these videos ooze through the screen. She’s the type of person that corrects you on the pronunciation of Bon Iver and wears Joy Division shirts even though she’s never once listened to them.
you sound like a very unhappy person. I hope things look up for you.
You're very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of gameboys, it's impressive and I learned a lot! great video
una wonderSwan color + flashcart 🚬
In Europa the boox go 10.3 is around 400, remarkable around 6, supernote A5X2 is over 700 😅 the Nomad seems a bit small
It sounds like a rough go for European customers. It'd be nice if they could find a way to make it more affordable for Europe. I really like small things, but the A4 size version was just announced. I think it will be even more expensive for you in Europe, though T_T
13:55 omg I could actually cry for joy. Every review seems to spend forever opening the box and telling me things I could find on the website. Thank you SO MUCH for actually exploring the device. Really good video overall! But that stood out to me lol.
Haha I'm glad it was helpful!! Reiterating product descriptions just feels too ad-like for me :')
Could it be that they come pre calibrated now? I ran the test and didn't see any flicker at all. I bought mine like a month ago.
Sometimes you get lucky and it's calibrated just right to yours! But since units have slight variances it's not going to be perfect for everyone. I think my first ITA was perfect to it's GBA too! hope you're enjoying it :D
@@yourcoolunclemarisaThanks a lot for your reply! I love the screen so far I got it thanks to your video (I was about to get the IPS) Just a little problem I have a little dark spot on the top left corner, the pixels aren't completely black. I wonder If I didn't connect the ribbon cable right, I have a different version of the ribbon compared to all the videos I have seen.
@@GenesHandThat's great! I'm glad you like it. The ribbon is probably just a newer revision? But if your screen is damaged out of the box and reseating is not fixing it I'd contact the seller.
Sorry it was uncomfortable for you, it's ok for me I'm pretty happy but the pupil distance can be off it might be the reason why my lower edges are blurry, I'm using them as a monitor replacement though. Adjustable everything would be fantastic, it means though they can break and get more weight, maybe if they were more modular so stores could fit one to your face, but this will add to the price, still I'm excited for the future because I don't need no stupid AI VR gimmicks apple does with me touching a virtual peace of poo poo with a hand being tracked real-time or whatever, I just need a large screen high-quality screen.
I'd love to find a pixel for less than $200
This is a beautiful video 😢
I have found myself playing a lot of playdate lately while my switch gathers dust. I just bought the pizza box too.
