      Be sure to run your head cleaning tape first for maximum video quality! And don't forget to pour that cleaner juice on the tape first haha...

    I'll take one. Then podcasters will know who to punch.

    I know video games are much more popular(bigger than hollywood) than they were back then, but I'm looking at the NE map. You know, the one that's entirely red? It's not THAT popular. Like, 2 gamestops in the Mall of America popular. I highly doubt each GS is pushing so much merch that it needs a second store to keep up. In Tokyo, there's zero game stops. There's nowhere near as many stores selling video games than I saw per square kilometer, and I was in Akihabara.

    Come to think of it, where I purchased GTA5 a while back fit that bill(almost): WalMart. IIRC they had a pallet of them. Yes, I went to WalMart instead of a tiny retailer that specializes in video games. It's amazing how much time is spent per transaction for the club sign-up for the few customers they have in-store. Getting a little RadioShacky there, GS.

    Well if that's gonna happen, I'm gonna covertly sit across with my cell phone camera on record ready for instant YouTube fun footage. I've got too much clutter in my house, and I need to cut back. Sadly, one Colecovision Gemini module isn't working at all. heh.

    Last time I went to a GS, the floor space seemed to be entirely devoted to toys & video game swag.

    I think I'm going to bring a "free" bag consisting of games, DVDs, etc that I don't want to bother selling, but don't want to bother indexing/taking pictures of, etc. so it thus, can be free! * Robotech DVDs * A few PS2 games * a few DVD movies that I have no need to watch again * A Wii knockoff console * a cheap famiclone(I have several, I can sacrifice one) I'll put 'er our there in a shopping bag with a "free" sign, and see what happens.

    I never met a Capcom pinball game I didn't like. They made some real nice pins. I had the pleasure of playing BBB at SS Billiards. Fun game. Love the artwork(nice & clean) and the goofy sci-fi theme. I magine BBB is where all the Galaxy High kids grew up and went to.

    Belle Epoque's "Miss Hollywood" is some hard-core dirty-ass disco.

    So I've got a Gemini module that has the rectangular buttons. The start & reset buttons won't budge at all. Even with the top part of the casing off, the buttons wont budge. Can I just dremel around the button holes to give it full freedom?
  11. S1500
    Maybe there will be one in the console+computer room you can do a swap with(with asking beforehand) to do a quick check? If it works, I'm betting you can get the missing parts easily in the vendor tent.

    Don't forget MIdwest Gaming Classic. That's become one of the major ones.

      I think there's one called "Intellivision Flashback 2" and another called "Intellivision Flashback 2?" Obviously, we need another called "Intellivision Flashback 2!"

    I'm not believing anything until there's a 12-hour special episode of The Intellivisonaries episode clarifying it. Breaking news!

    What was the helicopter arcade game that had a yoke like Star Wars? Not thunder blade, this was in the 1990s, and was pretty good at the 3D

    I could see the big N going after them for nintendopower.com. Many individual console/computer games had domain names ending with "world" like quakeworld.com, etc for fan sites focusing on just that one game.

    Heh. I made my trip to Galloping Ghost & Underground Retrocade last weekend. Totally fun. Wow does GG have a ton of obscure games. I wonder if that was the same Wacko cabinet I played at the Amtrak station BITD. But wow, is driving on the highways in the Chicago area no fun. Everyone is going warp 3, and tailgating is a common occurence. All sorts of "get outta my way!" going on. Driving from Underground Retrocade to home(twin cities) whilst avoiding tolls was strange. Lots of stoplights & really congested shopping center areas.

    OT: "Final question: You're on a 55mph zone. How fast do you go?" "80" "Correct! here's your Illinois drivers license."

    Dangit, this is the 2nd image I've uploaded to atariage that's now sideways. heh

    I saw this at a retro gaming store. What does it do?
  23. S1500
    It's not every day you see a Ten Pence Arcade podcast t-shirt in the wild, but that's what happened this weekend. Found at the Underground Retrocade on my road trip.

    Today's the day I make a road trip to Galloping Ghost.

    Willie finally took a stand against the NintendoSwitchization of retro gaming podcasts. He buzzed out the Subaru Brat on the Channel F podcast. I like this.
