Sony DualSense PS5 Controller Charging Problem.

I remember when gaming was simple.
Turn on console, plug in wired gamepad and play.
Today as technology keeps advancing you have more things that can fail.
Recently I wrote about the defective ethernet port on the PS5 that results in random disconnects and reconnects.
This time a new issue with the PS5 controller always having low battery.

Update: New USB-c cable and the problem is back.
I have even tried the old USB cable on other consoles and as a phone charger which works perfectly.
This time with my attention on the low battery messages that keep popping up on the screen, I gently wiggle the cable at the top of the PS5 controller and the messages start displaying.
I hold it to one angle they stop.
I move it to another angle and it disconnects.
Now what could it be? A faulty usb-c port on the controller or what?
Again, this all started after the last controller update and I have tried all the troubleshooting suggestions.
I’m at a loss as this is seriously annoying.
I’ll post an update if a find a solution.

Sega Dreamcast GDEmu Upgrade plus more

I am making a record for upgrading my Dreamcast with a ODE GDEmu even though the disk laser still worked fine after so many years.

The ODE installation was easy, the mounting kit is decent but over all great

I will detail how to create the SD storage, tools I am using and a few other nice add ons followed by some photos.

I will update this post soon.

Small note:  

I have been searching online for hours on how or what would be the correct way to swap multi disk games.

I will find out myself and will update with clear details from button combos, which button, SD card storage file structure and whatever else I find out.

 

Sony PlayStation (PS1) MODE Mod Info

Recently bought a custom PS1 (from stoneagegamer.com) with many mods like a terraonion mode ode, shiny mini hdmi etc etc.
Just adding some notes and will occasionally add update.

In-Game Reset Kit for PlayStation – PyroESP
The button combination for the controllers is:
L2 + R2 + SELECT + START, for a short reset pulse ( Restart to Game)
L2 + R2 + SELECT + CROSS (X button), for a long reset pulse (Reset to MODE, Xstation Menu)
The lightgun combination is:
A + B + TRIGGER, for a long reset pulse

Small update:  I’m working on building a game collection on a hard drive to get that out the way so that I don’t have to keep opening up the console to install or change things around.

After that I will install a SD card mount kit and update from the card without opening up the console.

Will update soon.
