Just so you guys know whats taking so long with Mondo Cool TV.  I've been saving up a fuck ton of dollars to buy camera items and things for show segments.  I still have a long way to go.  But I wanted to compile a list of all the shit I need.

Things for specific segments and improved video quality:
-------------------------------------------------
Work Bench - to work on and kind of a set for This Old Vidya.
Soldering Iron - I'm going to get a nice one instead of cheap wal mart garbage.
Crimp Pin connectors - I'm going to make another composite cable for TG16/PC Engine the old segment is shit.
3 Button Genesis Controllers - I need at least one.  To make a Zero Tolerance Link cable.
2 Duratrax C2192 NiMh 7.2v 1600mah batteries - for a Game Gear project
Heat gun - reflowing solder, heat shrink tubing and shit you use a heat gun for
DPDT switch - going to region mod another Saturn
Genesis S video mod - improve video quality and shit
Atari 7800 S Video mod
XRGB Mini Framemeister
Bomberman Multi tap for SNES - A bomberman episode
HDMI multi tap with HDCP - to record PS3 with HDMI
Back up Hard drives - archive video and shit
DVD Recorder


Camera Shit:
-------------------------------------------------
Product turn table - For getting sweet product shots on the show.
DSLR Slider - getting smooth moving shots
H4n Zoom - Audio recorder
Lapel Mic
Dead cat filter
Ball head X2 - for my shoulder rig
Friction Arm - more shoulder rig shit
Tablet that works with DSLR controller - use as an external monitor
More studio lights
Mono pod - mono poding.
DSLR Jib - use it for crane shots on locations
Tablet tri pod mount
Phone tripod mount
Back pack camera bag
Better tripods
Microphones for the studio area



Games for segments:
-------------------------------------------------
ToeJam and Earl - Have PSN version so dont really need it but it would be nice.
Zone of the Enders Fist of MARS on GBA -  Need it for an episode
GB Ever Drive - play specific english patched games for two season 2 epiodes


I'm going to conduct some S video experiments.  I recently recorded some Saturn footage and it looked like shit.  Might be the native resolution of the game as I was super happy with out House of the Dead turned out.  But I've been wanting to at least upgrade to S video for a while.  So there are a few systems that need to be modded as well as some harder to find video cables I will need to hunt down.  There are a lot of crappy bootleg S video cables that don't really output S video they just put composite through an S video connection.  It's terrible.
