  1. If I had known back in 1992 that I'd still have our old NES and would still want to play it, I would have begged Dad to pick up a Top Loader.
  2. I had Police Quest on my old DOS 286. Except that it was pirated from someone we bought it for and I didn't get a map. And I had no idea how to get the Bikers to move their bikes out of from in front of the Diner. I got killed by them many times. But it was such a fun game.
  3. My friend who works at BlockBuster said they're very hard to find. And that they only got one copy and everywhere he checked they were completely gone. BTW, it IS the one with the special bonus Japan-only version, right?
  4. If they get really cheap, I'll have to pick one up again just to play Bubble Bobble which is the only PS game I have left and the only one worth it. And I have a craving to play it.
  5. Anybody thinkk they'll later on release it for sale to people who couldn't get it with Wind Waker? I'd really like to see it. Though I have the N64 version, and unless they ported all my other fave 64 games too, it doesn't make a bit of difference. But whatever.
  6. Dang.. What I wouldn't give to have your collections, guys. Man.. All I have is just an Atari (Lost the power adapter. Grrr), NES, Dead NES with ROB and accessories (Some broken), SNES, N64, GameCube, Xbox, and games for all of them. Aside from that, I have a few Macs. I like collecting those more than games. But I lost my camera and haven't been collecting lately. Soon I'll get back into the eBay thing. I KNEW I should have bought that Jaguar, TurboGrafix 16 and Sega Genesis they had at the Toy Liquidators back in 1998. I didn't realize at the time they'd be collectable. They were new in box. Just leftovers from the end of life. WAHH!!!!
  7. I'm surprised no one has made a "try turning counter-clockwise" joke by now. What a nice polite newsgroup LOL. Yeah. In 1999 I bought a dead NES off eBay.. (It was As Is and was my first eBay purchase.) and I tried to open it at the time the screws wouldn't budge. So it went into a box for 4 years. I just got it out again and the screws came out so easily. So.. just plop it in a box for 4 years. That'll loosen the screws.
  8. That's a pretty cool idea. It would be cooler online. And I'd rather it be Xbox Live because I ain't paying for one game on the Nintendo. I will never pay for a Nintendo Online service. They don't have enough footing. Guess I'll never be able to try an Online Animal Crossing.
  9. Fun House. (That lin is part of an infomercial showing the rebuilding and refurbishing of Fun House and Rudy the Dummy's head.) I only saw it for about half a week in the early 90's at a camp ground and played it once. One day I watched a guy play all the way through the game all the way to nighttime when the dummy went to sleep. It was such a cool game. I wish I had one. Fast forward to 2003 and if I had $2,999.00, I'd run down to TNT Amusements and buy the the game completely rebuilt and refurbished. Well.. after I bought a computer first. I implore anyone who likes Arcade games or Pinball games and such to watch the Infomercial for TNT Amusements located on their website. It's unique. And once I start watching it, I cannot turn the channel. (It's a Cult Classic out here in Eastern PA/Western NJ.)
  10. How does Animal Crossing work? Am I to assume you need a modem adapter? And you have to pay a fee per month?
  11. Wow.. that link is good. I'll have to try that before I decide to plunk down money for a new connector. Cool.
  12. Yep. As of yesterday, the G3 iMacs are NO MORE. About fricking time, too. Either upgrade 'em and lower the prices, or kill 'em off. Now.. bump the iBook to G4 and kiss the G3 good bye.
  13. Obviously.. THe game featured in Back to the Future 2. Which is what I thought of when VintageGamer.net said "Doc Holiday". I thought he said "Doc Hollywood" and thought of Michael J. Fox which made me think of BTTF which featured the game in the Café 80's when Frodo and his friend tried to figure out what it was and got mad that it required use of your hands. I'm rambling again.
  14. The Apple I was made as a Hobbyists toy. Which is why cases usually ended up being wood. All you bought when you bought one was a logic board. You make the case yourself. The Candy Colored iMac look is dead. It's been dead for a year or so. The new thing is white with chrome.
  15. Probaly not. I've never seen one separate. Just SMB. But never Duck Hunt itself. My TV is probably 20"-22". BTW, what other games use the light gun?
  16. Hehehe.. I just played a nice game of Duck Hunt on my NES and got the best score and furthest I've ever gotten without cheating. Round 11 High Score: 185600 I never got that good before! I was like RoboCop. My aim was great. These classic old games are so fun. I hope to fix my NES soon so I don't have to wiggle the games anymore. Right now the pak is in there perfectly.. DON'T TOUCH IT!
  17. You have to realize, they can only Resell what people give them. Many people just bting in CD's without cases or books. Or cartridges without the box. I myself did this when I purged myself of the PlayStation. I didn't have cases. And I wasn't gonna hunt for some. You can buy CD cases at a store if you really need one.
  18. When it came out in 1995 I wanted one. I asked my parents to get me it for Christmas. They said "No!". Then a few months later, Nintendo announced the N64.. uh.. "Ultra 64" and I was glad they didn't get me it. I ended up getting an N64 the next year at Christmas. Luckilly my parents found one lying on a shelf during the big rush. Anyway, a couple years later at Toys 'B' Mine I saw the remaining VB's on sale for $20 each. I was so tempted to grab one. I wish I had. You could buy the entire collection very quickly.
  19. Mini DVD based, actually. It's the size of a Mini-CD but spins backwards and reads from the outside. Piracy prevention technique.
  20. I can't wait for Futurama, Family Guy and Simpsons Season 3 DVD's. Those and the Red Dwarf DVD's and I'll have more TV on DVD than I can handle.
  21. I still haven't gone down to my local GameStop yet to check on this.
  22. Oh, cool! Super Mario Bros Board Game? Now I've seen everything. Someone got a picture of these games out of the box and all set up?
