(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Say I want to go to collage to learn how to solder and mod things like PS3 controllers and consoles.

What other things are in this kind of field and what degree would I need to go for? Also could you provide a link with a description and maybe a video?

It would probably be computer electronics or electronics engineering. I doubt you could find a job modding ps3 controllers unless you started your own business

Thats what I was planning on doing, like open up a shop for console modding like LED's, custom cases, Jtaging, Rapid fire controllers with LED's and custom paint.

How much money could you possibly make doing that...not enough to pay for the schooling loans & then living expenses.

$50 bucks profit a controller? Why is your service better than say, Evil Controllers? What if you mess up and have to replace the controller..you'll be 10 in the hole & still have to expend labor. How do you run your business, will you get an MBA? Take marketing classes? Would you pay for a website? I suggest you get something with a flat paycheck that you can budget, do this if you have free time? What do you do if no one orders a controller for a month? The bank doesn't care, you still have to make that house payment, or watch your credit score go down.

Sorry if I sound like a toolbox.

If you 2 haven't noticed I like to do this kind of stuff, not necessarily modding controllers. If you look at the OP it says what other things are in this field. I'm trying to find out what I want to do when I get out high school and I like this kind of stuff.

If you dont have a answer for my question GTFO, it's my ****ing life I will live it however the hell I want.

























GTFO!
