OldSchoolRetroGamer replied to Rev's topic in Intellivision Amico

Good luck with your sales.....😎

Yes, this is on my main daily driver desktop, Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview because I live on the edge baby! 😎😛😆😆😆I AM JUST THAT HARD CORE ! I take risks, I am a rebel, you can't tell me what to do !-

Right, I got a message request earlier today and I looked at his avatar thinking he seems familiar, but I've enough facebook "friends" and I tend not to add anyone else let alone anyone currently outside my circle. I guess he sent the message (if you respond it opens up a dialogue and allows him to video message you etc) thinking we have so many common mutual friends in gaming circles but otherwise I had no idea why he messaged me but something just was not sitting right with me. So I deleted the conversation without responding, if there is another attempt I will be sure to straight up block. 😆

Any good sites for jag reproduction carts?

Just when I though Emulators of older consoles could not bring anything new to the table, I find this type of thing fascinating. 😮😍
-
Wait....and I am perfectly happy if I am remembering incorrectly but, didn't the last update already say those 500 were already in the process of shipping? 🙄🤔

I'll throw in a couple that immediately come to mind:

Of course it is assumed you will go back to that videos comments on Youtube and clarify that you were not actually banned right? Make it known that you were never banned or locked right? Because of course if you are going to talk crap about Atariage over in Youtube comments you are a big enough person to admit to those same people you were wrong. 🤔😉 UPDATE: Pffft ! Scratch that, just seen those as well as the rest of your comments on Youtube, yeah ok buddy, CLEARLY you are playing both sides here, none of your claims of just wanting to "talk" etc, are true, you are doing NOTHING but posting negative comments, of course you will lie and claim otherwise , we have seen it a million times but anyone who has seen the way you are going on over their would have any doubt that your ONLY reason being here is to infiltrate and spy so you can go back and shit talk more on Youtube. But go ahead and claim otherwise, your trolling here period while claiming to be a "potential customer" and just wanting to "talk to TOMMY" except NOTHING you are posting on Youtube supports that claim. OK have your fun, myself I wont read anymore of your responses here as they are meaningless. Carry on TROLLING 🙄

Woo Hoo! I am now a member of the Atariage DISCORD server and I have no idea what that means honestly. Maybe I will figure it out at some point 😛

From whenever I've tried it (not lately),...It was like a complicated "Chat". I'll have to try it again, but on the old one, there was subjects for various interests (i.e. Atari 2600 or Arcade Games, each like an individual chat room), but that was probably just how that particular Discord deal was set up...If it's set up as just a place for AtariAgers, Maybe it'll be Great! I'll have to try it again so I know...

Whelp, time to dispose of the old VHS and tapes of old home movies! 😜😎

Yep, years ago bought the cheapest low end standalone DVD-r recorder I could find and did just that, sure nothing was enhanced and it would be yet another generation of recording but I figured at least once on optical media it would no longer deteriorate (well outside of Bit rot or something) and also easier to load into video editing programs or players. I can back up or even make disc images of it all. The original tapes have sat collecting dust since.

ATARI was king back in the day, must have been a blast to work there in the early days (we've heard the stories) but commercials like THIS you'd likely never see today 😆😆 I mean, I LOVE IT but the ending especially did kind of make me go WTF? 😜😆 Nothing was too insane or out there back in the day, would love to have been a fly on the wall during these marketing pitches! Bless'em, I MISS those days!

😃😉

So THIS just popped up in my subscribed videos thread and honestly, I would actually consider getting this. At least it seems to know what it is and I would definitely choose it over the AtariVCS. Hell, maybe just get the AtariVCS shell and stick THIS inside? 🤔😜New Micro Center Raspberry Pi Retro Gaming Kit with 100 Licensed ATARI Games!

Last 3 games you played?
OldSchoolRetroGamer replied to lushgirl_80's topic in Classic Console Discussion
😎And thanks for sharing that Colecovision gaming goodness on your youtube channel, it's been a fun nostalgic blast. 🍻 -

RE: N64 😎 I am a huge Resident Evil games fan so of course even though my first experience of it was on Playstation I simply HAD to own a original N64 cart as shown. It's just loose cart and I have not played it in years (Hope it still saves?) but it is one of only a handful of original N64 carts I still own as I use my Everdrive mostly. Still, look forward to trying it out again soon, what they achieved on a N64 cart was impressive. 😍
-
Just showing not selling or trading, also have a question and appreciate your comments, thoughts, opinions 😎😉Now, I typically use my Everdrive but I have a pretty small but ok collection of original carts. I think I got most in a lot some time back, Ogre Battle 64 was sent to me from a fellow youtuber who said it was a good one. I would definitely play most of these happily though Quest 64 I have heard is not so great? Also, I am not much of a Pokemon fan in any capacity but I think it requires a separate accessory pak which I have but it is missing the Mic that plugs into it. Anyone know if I can plug any mic with a plug that fits? Maybe the mic from my Dreamcast vmu for playing Seaman? That would be a funny alternative. Of course Shadows of the Empire, Resident Evil 2 and Goldeneye are my favorites, of the rest does anyone have a favorite or even one you cannot stand? Thanks.

OK, I know your type, you've made up your mind and I've no desire to attempt to change it, I disagree and you have your opinion going back and forth endless achieves nothing. Going on for the next 5 pages wont change either of our minds and I prefer not to derail this topic further. BUT IT'S NOT A FLASH CARD. Good day. 🤣
-
Nope. It may be needed for use with your pi1541 but it is definitely not a flashcard in and of itself.
-
Nope, it was the same background I had prior to updating to this version, the background, context menus, start menu layout, desktop icons etc are all things I customize myself on all my Windows installs. I like a familiar environment in whichever Windows computer I use here at home.

😎😉I like using one machine to opt-in for Windows Insider Preview Evaluation builds of Windows, WHICH machine do I use for this? Well, certainly not our main desktop (THE HUB OF MY WORLD 😜) and certainly not our main Laptop which is a 17' Dell that Melissa currently uses as her daily driver working from home. Our third best machine / second best laptop is the HP Pavilion I found with just an AMD A6 with 8gb ram (I upgraded from 4) is pretty much MY go to when not on desktop so that leaves another machine I found, the beautiful but very slow Sony Vaio Laptop. This machine with just 4gb ram - 5400 rpm Hardrive and sluggish CPU: Intel Mobile Core 2 Duo P8400 @ 2.26GHz, originally came with Windows VISTA 😒 but I removed that for a basic install of Windows 10 Home which considering the hardware runs "well enough" in that it is stable if a tad slow and unresponsive. Yep THIS machine was the one I choose to evaluate the latest preview builds Of Windows 10. 😂Because in the end it is my last choice normally to use Windows on anyways and if it crashes or becomes unstable it will hardly be a setback or cause any issues. BUT THAT SAID the latest Insider's Preview Build seems to be running just as well and stable as the basic retail build I was previously running. If it runs good on THIS hardware that bodes well for anything newer. Between the customizing and settings I always change or restrict on any Win 10 OS I run, I really cannot notice or tell you about any differences without looking up specific details. Other than a nicer looking icon for some of Windows 10 default tools / apps (Camera / Calculator / Defender ) I cannot tell much difference, so I will keep this machine on the FAST RING opt-in for Preview Builds just for testing and giving me an excuses to boot up this old Sony Vaio more often. Oh, and all this while dual booting Linux Ubuntu on the same machine has caused no issues. 😜 😎

Today is just a sit on my butt with a laptop day........I took this with the crappy camera on the low end HP Pavilion (It's good enough for browsing and Youtube 😝 ) I ain't fixing my hair or putting on pants today..... because I am not stepping out or expecting company. 😜😎

Defining moment you HAD to have an Amiga?
OldSchoolRetroGamer replied to marcfrick2112's topic in Commodore Amiga
Living here in Canada I was not even aware the AMIGA existed, then by chance going to a friend of a friends home, I seen his AMIGA 1000 running some platform game with parallax scrolling and stereo sound booming out of the 1084s monitor and MY MIND WAS BLOWN. I asked Mark (my friends friend) what the hell was I looking at and I was hooked from that moment on. Sadly, it would not be until much later that I could afford or find ANYTHING related and that turned out to be a nice a500 with some accessories. I loved fiddling with Dpaint and creating basic titles fr my VHS home movies etc. Some years later I moved up to an a1200 with 030 accelerator and 4 mb ram expansion. The years have not been kind and I have no original AMIGA hardware today and getting any shipped here to Canada tends to be prohibitively expensive for me, my greatest regret is having to very reluctantly have sell off my AMIGA hardware. THANK GOODNESS for emulation, that same emulation I scoffed at back in the day is now my only way to even attempt to relive those great AMIGA years. -
