I bet quite a few considering that the fact does not seem to be mentioned on the cart, box or manual....Was there some kind of insert that told people to use the other joystick?

"Sensors detect another quarter in your pocket, deposit it to be the captain of Starship 1"
Nice find!

I think that really depends on the type of plastic... Some is more heat resistant than others.
-
I'm going to have to call bull on that. The disk drive did a good enough job by itself making itself warp when using regular games that a burned disc wasn't going to make a difference.
I'm not so sure that's a valid argument...if, as you said "the disk drive did a good enough job by itself making itself warp when using regular games" adding to that with a reflective disk could greatly increase fail rate.
So the real question is, Do silver disk really reflect more heat? or is that just an urban legend?
-
Don't know how true this is but the old story about PS1's was that a silver disk reflects back more heat than a black disk and eventually causes the plastic plate that holds the laser to warp... Of course you could buy black disks to avoid that.

Please create a United States only page.
It is called advanced search....

I'm actually getting back in the market for a 3Do now, since I recently found out about the ability to play games downloaded.
Avoid the Goldstar model in that case. Many people have had problems running CDRs on that unit, though YMMV.
I never had trouble playing CD-R on my Glodstar. That is until I wore out the laser and now it won't read anything..
-
I recall a game show game, maybe it was called Twisted, something like that...we all thought that was awesome.
Twisted was a great party game. I'm surprised no one has mentioned it till now.
I think my favorite game BITD was Road Rash. I spent many hours playing that....
-
LOL...Damn it, we need a "sarcasm tag".
-
By that rational, we don't need rom files unless you are making pirate carts...just a screenshot is sufficient to preserve a game for future generations.
-
Hopefully it won't happen because it would hurt the hobby but you can't control what people do with their possessions.
I really hope it does get scanned one day because some day these might be lost forever. As you say these are incredibly rare, there are not many out there. Just like the games will bit rot with time so does paper rot. Not to mention natural disasters.....

DUDE! They made a Section Z map!!?? I would have killed for that 20 years ago
No killing needed...
Big problem in the NES world where a collector did make copies of a Section Z map. The item was only available in certain boxes of the game and was in demand by most trying to complete the game.
I can see how that would be easy to fake but most game docs are much more difficult.
I don't see the benefits of making a scan available outweighing the risk of a fake on this one.No worries, someone else will scan them one day.

If it was a working joystick it would be a nice addition to a room with this table...

Try here... http://www.megaupload.com/
Or one of the many other DDL sites, and just post the download link here.
EDIT: ....or Mediafire...

I checked the images in your photobucket and they are the same...
Did you resize these before uploading them? Do you still have the original scans?This is the problem...
With nice fresh scans those two images should be the same size and line up clean. If it was only 2 images I might try to manually resize one to match the other but with this many images.....it will get messy. If you have the raw scans please, zip and upload.
-
I can do the joins but can you zip up all the scans and upload them somewhere? Mediafire has resized your images.
-
I DO feel I have finally come.....
That's normal when you get a woody. Don't worry.

i think a fonz game would be pretty cool - try to jump a shark tank with a motorcycle.
Awesome! Add in a bonus round where you get to punch a Jukebox (a la Street Fighter)....
Come on homebrewers...get on it...

I thought this was going to be another "when is Duke coming out?" thread...

OK, one of the biggest motion pictures of that era was Smokey and the Bandit. Why did no company license it for VCS or INTV?
First one....
(Note: these are not my work, I found them)

Alot of these games were owned by young children at some point. As a kid I poked thru the label of a couple carts (never bothered to remove the screw).
-
I had a Goldstar 3DO back in the day (still do somewhere) and it was a great system at the time. I thought that the graphics were better than PS1 in many cases. What killed it was that the PS1 was cheaper and had more game developers supporting it..
