Sometimes older tech can be a real pain. With software to restore retro devices back to life becoming harder to find or sometimes lost completely. As well as running on Linux, with layers of detail to learn along the way. All the while it's in Japanese because this was a Japan exclusive, and I can't read Japanese. I had to keep pausing work on this video out of frustration. I often kept switching to making two other videos to keep myself going between the pain. These other videos also have their own problems. Too many challenges all at once. Anyway, I was able to finish this video finally. Despite the pain and suffering inflicted into my soul. I think I'm better for it after having had this experience. Now I just need to face the challenges ahead. With two new videos, in various states of disrepair and struggles still to work through. Oh, but I'm never going to stop trying. It's the trying that matters. The outcome is just a thing. Hopefully a nice thing, something that can be enjoyed. But it's the experience of getting there that really matters. Don't give up on your dreams just because it's hard to achieve the steps along the way. You don't know what's going to happen until you experience these moments. Whatever the outcome, having these experiences is something you will always appreciate later. Help support the channel with SuperThanks or Memberships on YouTube.
