I'm always curious why people do things so I always ask if that's what they did and I like to know why. I don't like to assume things so I always ask first.

OptOut | 9,031 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Sachen Q BOY update! Took the boy out for a spin before work this morning: First impression is them stubby little grips are fuggin awful, lol! VERY cramped grip space, plus doesn't help that the game sticks into the back, further reducing hand real estate. However, it's not all bad news! First of all the analogue stick on the front is actually NOT an analogue stick or even a digital stick... It's a handy button to switch the controller mode between player one and player two! FINALLY someone made a multiplayer game accessible to people without friends, like me! I can be two turtles at once, kinda! Take THAT footclan! Also, the biggest surprise of the whole thing is that the promised RUMBLE feature actually works! I know, I was shocked too, lol! It basically activates whenever you hold down either the A or B buttons, with longer presses equating to stronger rumbles. However, it does also seem to introduce lag or like a delay or something in the button presses, so it's not at all practical... But hey, for novelty value you can't fault it! In conclusion, it looks like an N64, so I'm gonna give the Sachen Q BOY the official OPTY review stamp of approval and a big ol' 10/10!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm always curious why people do things so I always ask if that's what they did and I like to know why. I don't like to assume things so I always ask first. If you read the initial post, it's a work in progress. I'm documenting trying to get the machine open so that we can see what lies within. It's literally a play by play, well to you and others might not know that, but @OptOut, me, and a few other buddies were in the loop on this one. I finally solved the mystery, so I wrote a blog entry about it. Not only does it prevent the NA effect from taking place, imo it also makes the discovery more significant. It's similar to dumping ROMs. Everyone wants to give an undumped ROM a try, when it's undumped. When you dump it and people realise it sucks, no one cares anymore. If I just posted the shitty multicart spoiler ending here, no one would care, after all even I was disappointed, it's boring. But the way I did it, it gives the machine the justice and respect it deserves, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jfreakofkorn | 307 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Noticed in the blog , you were able to obtain a key for one of the lock(s) . Ever thought about taking off the other lock off and try to match it up at varies shop(s) around town . It would be a lot lighter than carrying the box around , imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a key for the cash drawer, but since it's unlocked now, it doesn't matter. The one for the timer settings and stuff, the locksmith gave me his key for it, gratis, he said it was so old he had no use for it anymore, and that I might. Cool guy.

Jfreakofkorn | 307 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Oh oke , even better . Fair enough Those lock(s) can be rough to match up no matter where in the world you are . Just glad that they had some locksmith(s) that still retained some of the old stuff . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkchylde28 | 1,546 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Did you ever figure out how to get the top off? Ever slide your phone down inside with video recording to see if you could figure out what was causing it to bind up? Re-reading your blog post about this, it made me wonder if it's truly supposed to slide off the back or if it's one of the odd cases where they'll slide back so far then need to be pulled slightly apart along the sides to be removed vertically. My dad inheritied a couple of clone PC cases (with crap clone PC innards inside) that were like this forever and ever ago, where you needed to flex the sides slightly to get them out of the groove along the bottom, then pull them straight up to get at the insides. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fcgamer | 5,015 Posted January 22, 2021 Author Share Posted January 22, 2021 @darkchylde28 I never did figure out how to get it opened, I definitely should take another shot at it though. I also seem to remember finding a guy in Hong Kong with one, who claimed he did open his, I might try to inquire from I'm as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
