Great item to own but few Jaguar owners would deserve having it more than you. Some would say you live in a virtual reality anyways! :lol:

Originally I had my Wii connected to a Sony 28" CRT widescreen via the standard cable that came supplied and it looked average. When I replace the TV with a Sony Bravia 40" 1080p using the same cable it looked pretty bad, i.e. ghosting and colour bleeding. I've since replaced the cable with the component one and the image is great and its superb for games that have the EDTV mode. In EDTV early games such as Zelda displayed plenty of jaggies but that game was of course originally developed for Game Cube. Current title such as Mario Kart look fantastic.

Compared to ebay prices in the UK for Virtual Boy its a very good deal!

You won't be buying more for some time yet! Link

Despite my earlier jest, this thread has piqued my interest in Virtual Boy so much so that I should be buying one from a JS-II member this Sunday. Yokoi's other often overlooked handheld, the Bandai WonderSwan, is a system I already own (the SwanCrystal model) and really enjoy playing on.

Very rare!

Thank heavens for someone not trashing Sony's rep for once! My Sony appliances: * I owned a 28" CRT for five years and it worked perfectly. A friend now owns it and she's happy with it too * I currently own a Sony 40" 1080p and its been absolutely fine * A DVD player since 2002 (free with the TV) and it works perfectly well still * A launch model PS3 which has been perfectly reliable so far * A launch model PSP which has been fine * My PlayStation from 1997 which works fine still (although it needed repairing under warranty) * Owned two Walkmans as a child which were problem-free As I never bought that POS PlayStation 2 I don't have an axe to grind...

Please God, no! Sonic was never meant to be "cute", he was all about "attitude". Its only since Sega's artists have modified his image in more recent years he's become cute. Yeah,but ill tell you one thing,the "cute" Sonic has attracted ALOT of girls to the game,ive heard tons of girls say how cute he is,attitude or not they've always thought he was cute,thats what i meant by cute.Attitude can have cuteness also,especially from a girls point of view! Given my Sega-related username, I now feel totally emasculated knowing that Sonic's now seen as being "cute" in the opinion of girls. Thanks for nothing, buddy!

$120 for a VB with three games still seems a good price to me - you should buy it then stick it in ebay!

I take it you're a millionaire several times over then as their stock valuation has risen phenomenally since 2000 as far as I'm aware!

I assume you're playing it with the Saturn 3D Controller as its the only true way?

I've own the majority off the issues and this months issue is as good as ever. The Intellivision "retroinspection" feature is particularly good I thought.

I figured that I'd better post the topic in a forum where people will actually read it...

Do you think their Marketing VP has 16, 32 or 64 brain cells?

Here's what I think to their marketing - Walmart (Yes, they're selling a book with that title! )

I've not experienced the PS2 version but from what I've read the DC version suffered from poor frame rates which is most likely due to it being unfinished in addition to it being a cut-down PC port, I'm guessing using Windows CE rather than it being coded and therefore optimised with DC's own OS.

PS3s hardware has been largely reliable so far. Its just the firmware updates that seemed to have caused problems.

Work fine on my widescreen 1280x800 Mac.

I'm no fanboy, ahem, but its a foregone conclusion Dreamcast will be crowned as the best console ever!

Too funny!

@ Atarifever, Not to disagree with you, but just to be an awkward sod my Xbox was/is the least loved console I've ever owned. My apathy towards it played a significant part in not sticking with the brand this generation. In fact, the 360 is the only mainstream current-gen system I've not bought. That's just my personal choice and isn't intended to bait any 360 fans btw!

Your site certainly has great potential and it'll attract plenty of fanboy rants. Bookmarked!

At least a PS3 stands an outside chance of still working in 30 years time unlike a certain other competitor's console!

Yep. I once read it stated that even though Sony's PlayStation bitch slapped the N64 in terms of market share and number of games sold, when it came to actual profits made Nintendo were only marginally behind Sony. The reasons are those you've already identified in addition to the fact Sony were taking fewer royalties on each third party game sold.
