Woot! Really interesting seeing all these devices being created for retro systems. Some damn smart ppl out there.

Some 5 years ago I had been mostly away from video games for Some 3 years, and I had no idea how popular gaming channels were, and you guys along with Metal Jesus made me fall in love with videogames again. Always great content.

That ending skit was pure art. Good lord.

Four weeks of GameSack in a row! Thats a new one!

Not really, there was a couple of years that Joe and Dave did episodes every week. Then they took a short break and came back with videos every 2 weeks starting with the Playstation 2 episode. Just FYI. But nice none the less.

these little devices are really neat! I prefer using emulators for the convenience, but I like seeing these retro gadgets in action and you really do an excellent job in reviewing them. thank you!

Ah what a wonderful time for retro gaming! Also, that outro was ridiculous 😂

Props for ending on Arc the Lad, both 1 and 2 are fantastic games! Thanks for the great episode, Joe!

Nothing better than a fresh Sack.

Just happened to still be awake at 2am EST so let's see what's in the ol game sack this week

What a time to be a retro gamer. The community of hardware developers making this stuff has me really excited to see what's next. I've installed all these digital video mods, ODDE kits, and I'll buy all the future kits too! Really looking forward to the PS2digital.

Dude, this show is so weirdly good! I love not knowing what's coming next ep and you never disappoint. Thanks for making my Sunday a joy!

Awesome episode Joe! Gamesack every Sunday for a month was a bless :D Those mods are awesome but I wish we had a 'Saturn Digital' soooo bad :(

You are a true poet Joe!

It isn’t Voultar’s board that eliminates jailbars from NEC hardware, it’s a couple capacitors inside that need to be replaced with a different value. IIRC, the fix was worked out by Tim Worthington. That was likely done to yours at the same time Voultar’s board was installed.

This is one my favorite series you do. Great to see a round up of all the new retro gear!

There's retro gaming, and then there's Game Sack retro gaming.

Thank you for doing what you do.

The thicker beard is giving me some serious Walker Texas Ranger vibes. Looking sharp, my dude!

That is some of the cleanest PlayStation footage I have ever seen Wow!

There's no day on work without GameSack Greeting from the PAL Region Hope to meet you and Dave someday in real life to play around some classics -- unlikely but desirable

Anything that supports retro gaming, I'm behind! This is going to be a good episode!

i really do look forward to these. bad ass

21:24 I think it doesn't work with PS2 slim because that version used PS1 emulation to run PS1 games. The fat models included real PS1 hardware.

Love your humour Joe, nothing else hits quite like it 👍

I know nothing about modding, but watching Joe talking about it is still very interesting :) Great work as always ^_^

Ridge Racer Type 4 soundtrack delivers a strong opening to this episode. Well done

I cannot roll my R’s. Like, at all. Bravo, Joe. Bravo.

"They're gonna come up with a new connector to replace HDMI!!" Already have, it's Display Port. But the best bit is Display Port is HDMI compatible.

Extra episodes are always super welcome. Just so you know 🤞

I love this series. I'm glad the fans keep on breathing life into the actual good consoles.

00:38 R4 Ridge Racer Type 4 - Lucid Rhythms, instant nostaliga, I loved Gran Turismo on the PS1, but I also love Ridge Racer and music was awesome.

Love your work. Keeping it classy! Cheers!

I think my favorite thing has been the Rad2X. 8bitdo bluetooth dongles for retro consoles are a big plus as well. Love the Gameboy style controllers.

If Limited Run/retro game companies and other cool KZreadrs like your own is all we need to keep the coolness going in retro/gaming :)

I remember being deployed in Turkey and there was a store that would install a mod chip so your PSOne could read DVRs. Which they would sell for $3 a game!

Thank god you dropped the act at the end... About time...

Joe, you are a saint. Even though Gamesack was “Joe and Dave” for so many years, you approach the work you do for this channel as a professional. As a healthcare professional, myself, I respect and admire the attention to detail you put in to this channel. I just wish I could click the “thumbs up” icon twice. 😁

Thanks for making me happy, Joe.

My Sunday Finally Starts!!! Thanks from Brazil😀

We need a memory card for the Saturn. I have all kind of storage possible for the Saturn ( Floppy disk, cartridge, pseudo Kai sd card cartridge, and Satiator save feature). I really wish to get a easy and safe save system like the ps1 memory card. On the Saturn all the systems that I have have some failure , the official cartridge can loose your saves, the floppy disk can’t save directly ( except 20 games), the Satiator reset your internal memory in your Saturn to save into the sd card, the pseudo Kai sd card cartridge can brick and the save process is very slow. Great video Joe ! Not enough Sega but great 😜

It's awesome to watch a video from one of my favorite youtube channels as early as this. Keep with the awesome content. Greetings from Mexico

That adaptive scan line mode is dope! Wish emulators had a shader setting like that. At least I don’t think one is available.

I've experimenting wth the this great new device. It's called a CRT television. You can play all your old retro consoles on it! No lag; no sodering, no file manipulation. It's just plug and play, and, best, you get what people say is an 'authentic' experience!

Thanks for the note about dual output. I still want an Super HD System³ Pro but now I know there is a reason to keep the UperGrafx UGX-02 around. :) As for who would want 480p, well, that was one of the biggest things Bob from RetroRGB wanted to see from the UGX along with 240p. With either 240p or 480p you can go through a VGA adapter. Also, UperGrafx already supported Composite YUV colors over true digital HDMI on original hardware. ;) David Shadoff worked with the UperGrafx creators to get what seems to be perfect drive emulation so Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective does not desync.

I'm always happy to see scanline options in these products. For some, it's important. I'm a big fan of scanlines, real or fake. At one point, I didn't understand it, but I looked into it and why people liked that. It was one of those things where I finally understood and saw what other people saw in it. Once I saw the difference, I could no longer unsee it. I remember seeing a website a while back that explained the difference between the PC Engine and SuperGrafx with Darius. Using the extra video chip, and it's extra sprite and BG layers, was a nice enhancement to avoid the total and per-line sprite limits while still maintaining PCE compatibility, though with flicker. Really cool seeing that demonstrated in video. Good to see all these retro accessories and that they do. As for the end skit, you reminded me of Jonathan Harris from the old Lost in Space TV show with that accent.

I laughed way too hard at “well maybe if you like things that are crappy”

9:34 - Hi Joe, a number of people use 480p output to play on CRT computer monitors, using an HDMI to VGA converter and it works great. The scanlines here work well and sorta simulates the look of a high TVL PVM. Retro RGB made a short video on this, with the OSSC in mind. And albeit very rare, there's also the matter of 480p EDTV CRTs, I got one and it does not interpret 240p properly (it's a 100Hz set) or anything above 480p (it is not HD CRT), so 480p is the only viable option. There's always a niche use for some function that might sound useless or reduntant to some, but it's useful to others. I was disappointed to learn the PS4 Pro and PS5 dropped 480p support. It's not like jacks and inputs that add cost to production (like PS5 dropping TOSLINK), it's just an option that could just be left there intact, even if most people don't use it, some might. Playing modern systems on a widescreen EDTV was one of those quirky little niche things I really enjoyed sometimes.

I ran with HD displays for retro gaming for 15 years. Finally got an old square 4:3 SDTV and never looked back. You don't want to see the pixels. That's the beauty of image rendering on SD displays. It's completely unlike LED. The quality is better than you remember too. It doesn't look at all like what SD video looks like on an HD screen. It's blended seamlessly without any noticeable artifacts. A piece a furniture worth the space if you have a rather large retro library. It's not the same playing old consoles on HD displays and its not the same emulating them. SD is the format it was designed on and for and it looks completely different than anything LED can produce. You can't even record an SD screen and play the video back on HD and have it look the same. Not only the visible scanlines, but LED's can't produce the brightness, vivid colors, or the round screen shape. Your display reduces the video to pixels. Yo but I'm not crazy, I have a giant 4k TV with all the color features hooked up to a modern gaming PC that I use a lot more. Just no point in playing an emulator or eshop title that shows these old games as pixelly messes when it didn't look like that at all until the mid-2000's released new displays.

I thoroughly enjoyed the pronunciation of "PAL-ET". 10/10 would subscribe again.

What would an episode if Game Sack be without its bizarre pronunciations of words? I'm assuming PALettes are female gamers from Europe.

My favorite topic covered on this channel. You're a serious pro, Joe! I need a huge and gaudy 3D Game Sack Logo neck chain I can wear while I rep that Redifer Game Life.

Nice choice of using Ridge Racer Type 4 music. Such a classic soundtrack.

GameSack deserves a Netflix series.

LOVE YOU GAME SACK!

Me personally, I'm fine with composite in the original resolutions on a CRT but these devices are really cool.

Ah yes. My Saturday night bedtime audio visual comfort food. Right on schedule.

This episode in particular is a reason why you should list the games in appearance just like the music

Wow, this just reminded me of how much I loved and played the hell out of Jet Moto!

Aaaaaand that ending)))) it’s so good (whatever accent this may be).

Getting the wireless Brawler64 Ultra64 limited edition and just got a wirelessTribute64 Ultra64 limited edition. Makes me so happy there are good choices!

Nice

Off topic but I want to thank you joe for introducing me to the ys series

Wow your friend Bill is really something else

The first one sounds its worth getting

I can hear the intro music in my head before I click. Damnit

Great, now I want to play Arc the Lad! :)

The purpose of Bob in the PS1 Digital would likely be to use the capture device's or TV's own interlacing.

I absolutely love the PS1Digital! and the MemCard Pro gives me confidence to start RPGs on the PS1 without fear of losing my save games

In the end the arnold swartz accent was brilliant

Wahoooo, Sunday Morning Game Sack : )

I think all this stuff is neat, genuinely. I think I've honestly grown past trying to upkeep all the mods & workarounds one needs to make the stuff work. I still have the games, happily as well as the consoles but I'm happy with emulation. Had I had the space for a CRT or the money to care to invest in this kinda thing, yeah maybe. But at the same time, clicking and going is just nice. And yes, I own the games. I know how aggressive people get over this. I'll wave my cart of Ranger X at you if that helps remove aggression for not buying a game I literally can't purchase in a way that'd support the developer, that I'm pretty sure has been dead for at least 20 years.

Not even notification squad just randomly checked 1 min after posting!🤣😂

4:02 I'm calling you "JJ" from now, Joe. I mean, JJ.

I love the X-Station. Installed it in a 1001 model PS1 several months back, and I couldn't be happier. Well... my Fenrir could arrive in the mail for my Saturn, but still.
