The ScooterBlog

Most of these are from a couple of sites, but hey, they’re good sites!

* Someone posted an article on PSP Vault complete with a short video on how to possibly fix stuck pixels on a PSP. The link is http://www.psp-vault.com/Article168.psp, and some people have apparently reported success with this. I’ve got a pixel that shows as green, and a couple of other random ones, so I will be trying this! A full report is forthcoming.

* The “Human Tetris” video has been re-hashed on Engadget at http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000893046454. If you ask me, I still think our Running Of The Controllers video was better (although my Pac-Man needs his Tetris-esque costume), call me biased.

* It took about a month but the homebrew peeps figured out the 1.50 firmware and they have homebrew stuff playing on it. Apparently it will be “released” on the 15th, but I already bumped up to 1.51! I’m not worried about it, I’m sure all it means is that I’m out of the cat-and-mouse game for a couple of more weeks. The link is http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000043046430/

* Discussion on whether the DS has really been hacked to let you play whatever you want is running fevrishly on this forum in Engadget: http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000550046391/. From the looks of reading it, the answer is yes, but it’s a lot of work!

* If you’ve ever wanted to make your own circuit board, or better yet, your own really micro NES pad, check this out: http://www.g4tv.com/attackoftheshow/features/51925/Behind_the_DPad_Part_2.html

* From the category of awesome, how about installing your own power-up boxes all over town! Check out http://www.joystiq.com/entry/1234000993046280/

That’s it. Feast away!
