No, I'm not that technically savy. There was a thread about B&W problems before on this forum if you want to search for it.

I cannot believe some of the choices you guys are making!! I love most of these games. My picks: Firefly Double Dragon Karate (My pick for the most unplayable game ever for the VCS)

256

If you're getting a picture but it's in B&W, it sounds like the console has a bad chip.

Definetely Kaboom and Circus. I'll add: Pressure Cooker Hero (I CAN"T GET PAST LEVEL 14!!!)

I've been playing Neutopia for the TG16 lately. That one starts with a splashsceen of the hero standing at the edge of a cliff. I haven't finished it yet so I don't know if it ends that way too!

I have a joyboard and Mogul Maniac too. I agree you can't possibly stand on it if you're an adult. The times I've used it, I always sat down. It will work with any joystick game so it can make some of you're more traditional games interesting.

I know many of you are much more hardcore than I because I buy the games to play them not look at them on a shelf. I keep the boxes, manuals, etc but unless it was something I know was super valuble (which means I would probably put it on Ebay to finance the rest of my collection), I'm opening that sucker. Collecting is fun but playing come first for me.

Does that mean all of the Channel F Homebrewers (of which I'm sure there are thousands!) are gay?

Congo Bongo on any system. I can't seem to get the hang of the weird pseudo 3d perspective. Pretty much any Baseball on any system. Just like in real life I can't hit for @!%! I love video baseball but I ALWAYS lose.

It was UPS and the shipping was fair in price. It could be expensive depending upon which Goodwill it's being shipped from. The stuff doesn't come from a central location, it's from the individual stores all over. I've been lucky with them so I'll go back.

I have. I got a 4 port 5200 and some other game lots there. No problems at all. They take credit cards, package the stuff really really well(in fact I have never seen so much bubble wrap and stryofoam peanuts in one box)and they ship pretty quickly. The problem on systems and stuff is their "testing" consists of turning the unit on and seeing if there is a power light. That's it. Give them a try.

I think the article is hilarious, as is the rest of Seanbabys site. I don't think Channel F or VIS was an option since he had to choose from what EGM gave him to play. If anyone is insulted by the choices or stab at the Jaguar I offer this quote from Stripes: "Lighten up, Francis."

Hey! I'm broke at the moment but maybe you're not. I was just looking over at www.shopgoodwill.com and they had a lot of videogame stuff up for auction. Go to www.shopgoodwill.com and click on cameras and electronic equipment. Off the top of my head I saw a boxed 5200, games for 2600,5200,7800, Atari computers, Sega Saturn, and various Nintendo flavors. Good Bidding!

OK I take it back, I thought you guys were complaining about this topic coming up again.

BT on the CV with Superaction sticks. Sizzling good burgers!

The DC is a GREAT system and very fun to collect for mainly because of it's wide variety of options. It has a fishing controller, maracas, steering wheel, keyboard and a gun. Kick ass! There aren't that many games for these accesories but they're still fun. I may take some heat for this but frankly I like the DC much better then X-Box or PS2.

I agree this has been discussed a lot but if you're not interested don't read the thread. I personally like seeing the different perspectives. I know neither console is going to "win" or cure somebody's gout or whatever but it's fun to discuss.

By the way, here's screenshot from Tank World. It's amazing what some of those programmers could get Stella to do.

Hey I'm going to auction off my rare Swordquest game too. It's called Tank World. Bidding starts at ONE MILLION DOLLARS!

That is definetely the CV Wico. I have 2 of them myself.

I am moycon! I forgot how great the original Turok was. It's a shame the one the GC seems pretty crappy. I only played it briefly but I wasn't impressed.

Oh the cartridge, I was afraid we were playing for underwear with stars and the moon on 'em.

I forgot the 64 also has my 2nd favorite controllers of all time. Of course CV Superaction sticks are my favorite

I got the 64 when it first came out and have never regretted it. It still gets played a lot (a little less as the rest of my collection grows) and I think its quality is what will lead me to get a Gamecube when I can afford one. Over the years I've taken crap from my friends with the PS (I only got a PS1 recently) but as the price dropped on the 64 ($25 now) they all bought one. My fave 64 games: Mario 64 Starfox 64 Rogue Squadron Blast Corps All of the Mario Party games my wife and I play a game every night! Resident Evil Goldeneye
