@ToxoRetro

2 жыл бұрын

Probably because they're not handled so much with your (all humans, not just you personally 😉) greasy sweaty mitts. That's also what causes the brown earwax-like substance in the gaps where the controller shell splits open. Pretty rank when you think about it too much. And to think people happily play video games whilst snacking on Doritos, Cheetos and other messy snacks ending in "os". I'm considering washing my hands just thinking about the concept...

@@ToxoRetro probably a bit of your explanation and the use of a different plastic. The yellowing is mostly caused by UV radiation (as in simple sunlight), I imagine the battery compartment may be made out of something that could hold up better to potentially leaking batteries.

UV does tend to cause a different effect of yellowing@@AccAkut1987, seemingly especially with Amigas and SNESs where they go more of a bronze-ish yellow (without pulling up a Dulux colour chart, it's difficult to describe 😁) all over the exposed sides and more evenly. However I have 2 "Glacier" Gameboy Advances - one was my childhood one and one I bought much later 2nd hand. Both have a paler yellower yellowing along the front half of the top edge and in a inverted "U" shaped of the facing edge. The effects are worse inside the speaker grill. The chances of both being positioned in window view in approximately the same orientation is slim, as well as the fact my childhood one was usually kept in a soft case. Plus why the facing edge south of the screen as well as around the game slot area be unaffected (the back half of the top edge)? I find the upper top edge to be perfect for resting my index fingers for quick to the shoulder buttons. Everywhere else that has yellowed are where thumbs and palms sit regularly. We haven't mentioned air intoxicated by tobacco fumes, but then the lingering smell is difficult to remove. Nor have we mentioned cola spillage or a multitude of other factors that may leave other clues. Hand greases and UV are the most consistent possibilities as they'll affect 100% of products even to unnoticeable amounts - even sealed products will have been exposed during manufacturing processes to a minimal extent. As a general rule, home consoles and computers tend not to move much and have minimal hand contact, so tend to be UV related. Controllers and handhelds get handled a lot and get pretty greasy. Sure they may be left on the sunlight, but are often stowed away. General coverage would suggest UV, but more often than not tends to be localised hand contacted areas so probably sweaty grime. The battery compartment of a 360 controller (much like the base of a home console) tends to be placed on a surface when not being handled so is less likely to see sunlight, but equally is touched less as it's usually out of in-game hands reach and the fact it tends to be only used to change batteries on occasion; then they could have been removed in place of rechargeable packs - without knowing the full background we'll never truly get the answer for an individual scenario. The colouring can give more clues, but admittedly different colour items will discolour differently. Essentially we'll have clues towards a probable reason for deterioration but can only settle for a high chance. As for using different plastics, I'd be surprised if they did. Not ruling it out. Companies these days tend to only care that their products last at least the length of the warranty as well as minimising costs to maximise profits. Also the manufacturing of different materials can cause a greater risk of mismatching due to different rates of tolerance of thicknesses (ie a component that is give or take 10% has a bigger window of not slotting into another part with a 5% tolerance). I expected the shells are completely made from the same batch of ABS to ensure that a bottom shell which is, for example, thicker than the optimum dimensions by 0.02mm will fit a +0.02mm battery compartment and a +0.02mm top shell.

Never realised it had this much parts! Nice!

"Once again we have somebody living in here." For some reason made me stupid laugh. At 4:17

The entire way you film things is so satisfying like even the shot of the batteries rolling has me mesmerised lol and your humour and subtitles and Ducktor not to mention you literally bring these things back from the dead it makes such a relaxing fun experience to watch :)

For real I love how the Xbox 360 controller looks it reminded me of my younger days 😭

I actually enjoy repairing but mostly cleaning old pieces of videogame forniture. Even consoles. I'm too scared to open my PS2 and clean it, but while watching these videos I feel confident. So I'll try it, I'll give updates by editing this comment, wish me luck

I always brush my teeth with Hydrogen Peroxide. They’re now as white as that controller!

I remember the good old days until 2012, when I used to play on my dad's white 360 console playing games like Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga, and more. The Good, Old, Days... 🥲

Same! My dad and I were all the time with the Xbox360. Sadly we had to sell it a year ago, had the first Forza Horizon game.

It’s got so many pieces and I’m just amazed that every time you remember them all and never have one extra screw you don’t remember where it went

Honestly restoring old consoles and controllers like this isn't just great for the e-waste problem and nostalgia, it's also extremely important for game preservation. I can't think of any titles off the top of my head, but I'm sure there at least some older games that can only be played on their original consoles or through emulators on PC. But, emulators don't always run great depending on your PC's hardware and software bugs, and they don't always fully replicate the original experience. So TLDR; thanks for the great preservation work. I want to start amassing my own console collection and fix up a bunch of systems to save them from the landfill. And also to relive parts of my childhood.
