Sup duders.

[DeChief]

I'm DeChief, I've been a lurker on AG since 2007-ish but wasn't able to sign up for an account because kevin was even shitty with manually approving email addresses all the way back then. He eventually did, and I was active on Assemblergames from 2014 to June 24th 2018 when I was banned in cold blood. I was Durandal from that point on but didn't end up posting much because the place was mostly dead, and I was already in contact with most users I was close to in a Discord channel.

I used to collect development hardware, prototypes, etc. but am now more into vintage computers and software, with a focus on strange and unusual hardware, as well as rare/localised Japanese PC games (mostly action games... actually, more like every game that isn't a visual novel, strategy game, or JRPG )

Here's a short list of some interesting dev stuff I've owned:
- Xbox DVT4
- Xbox Debug Kit
- PS2 Debugging Station x 5
- PS1 Debugging Station x 30 (somewhere around that number, they used to be abundant on Yahoo Auctions)
- trade show (maybe?) grey DTL-H1200 PS1 Debugging Station
- PS1 Net Yaroze x 20 (same as debugs, no clue on the actual number)
- IS-NITRO-CAPTURE units x 8
- IS-NITRO-EMULATOR units x 4
- GameCube NR readers x 3
- PSP DTP-H1500 test units x 4
- PSP DTP-T1000 unit
- NDEV Wii devkit
- NPDP cartridge (from Blitz Games Studios if I recall correctly)
- GameCube Revolution prototype Wiimotes
- a handful of SNES/SFC, FC, and GB samples, review copies, and prototypes
- translucent orange Xbox Live controller (got it from Borman once upon a time)

I'm definitely missing some things but can't think of anything else right now. Glad to be back on OG!

You had an NDEV once too ?

Yo mate, would you consider writing some articles/guides for the place in the future?

Welcome back Chief, good to see you back here on the site too

I could, but what about? I don't think I know anything that others don't already know.

Welcome back Chief, good to see you back here on the site too

Thanks, you too!

Great to see some familiar faces like you and Shane! Welcome, dude.
