      One really positive change in the Jag scene recently is the release of BigPEmu.  It is a really superb emulator that does a great job of running all the commercial releases, including the JagCD.

      Same here. Sold it for peanuts about 10 years ago. It was boxed as well. Still have Tempest 2000 as I intended getting another one when my financial situation improved. Now, prices are too insane to make it worth my while.

      Well to avoid the Pitfall(s) of the Basic Math (of your finances) and Breakout of your situation on this Venture;  Might I recommend you save up and buy Gorf Arcade at the same time you buy Super Cobra Arcade and Star Castle Arcade?  The Arcade will be with you...Always!

      Cobra and castle...meh! Butt one day, when I become big and strong, I'll own da Gorf!

      Hmmmm,

       

      See,  to Me,  Star Castle was that one Dream Game above all others BITD,  If I really had to choose*  (I got it!@@!!) so...Dream realized...Now I do think I'll eventually buy Super Cobra (Why not?,  got the original BITD, when they sent the Atari version,  even though I'd ordered the ColecoVision version (True Story)) and of course GORF!

       

       

      * I also really wanted Phoenix (Done) and Astro Blaster was right up there...(Playing Now on my 7800)...Plus "Space Rocks" of course...

  5. Been a few weeks now at the gym. Feeling good I guess. So as a former welder of 25 years, as I pause for a break, I see myself looking at the welds on these machines "atrocious" I wonder to myself and say; how the hell has this thing not broke apart yet!!!???

      I remember that so well. My friend said to come over, he'd just got Pac-Man! I hung out with him and his brother playing it on Atari VCS for a while, then when my mom came home from work I asked her to take me to the store to buy it (Yes, even though I'd played it,... So much hype on this one, but we still had no idea when it'd hit the stores). Instantly it seemed to be sold out Everywhere. We went to 3 stores before finding it! Ironically I found it at a store called 'Pay and Save' and spent $37.95 on it!! (Which was more than I'd ever spent on a video game up to that point). I still have it of course :)

      Actually when I was about 12 or 13 I Did have bell bottoms!  Even crazier, but true;  They were this bright pastel green color!  I also got a go-kart for Christmas one year...And I was wearing those pants when my brother drove it...I was on the passenger side and he turned so sharply, I was flung off but the knobby tire left a black skidmark down my bell bottomed jeans!  Pretty sure we threw them out after that.

      His taking a 3 month vacation didn't help Atari! He should have jumped right in and started to get everything back on track, but he waited and then it was too late to do any good!

  17. Was just on the Sony store on my ps5! Looking thru the ps4 games. I saw postal 4!! Oh man. I played postal 2 to death on PC. Idk man, I think Gorf Arcade will have to wait a little longer to buy

    1. SlidellMan

      SlidellMan

      As much as I wanted Postal 2 twenty years ago, P4 looked and ran like shit. Sure, Running With Scissors can fix all the bugs and glitches, but it didn't have the ribald, edgy, over-the-top, Newgrounds humor that Postal 2 had. You would be better off buying Postal: Brain Damaged instead.

      @SlidellMan I didn't even know there was a 3rd one!!!!!! 

    3. SlidellMan

      SlidellMan

      I heard that Postal 3 was pretty bad, but not without merit. That being better level design and art direction. By the way, Alek Waselewski (https://sarkazm.newgrounds.com) animated the cutscenes to Postal: Brain Damaged.

      I always liked Gobots! They were all the same size, they were all cars, and it made sense.  With Transformer toys, you had a boom box the size of a car, that was the size of a plane. Madness.  I didn't know that was a Sears thing, though, I assumed they were from some other competing toy/cartoon company.

    3. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      @BydoEmpire  I liked Gobots too!  We never had the Transformers cartoon here...The actual joke (from the movie CLerks II I think) is "Everybody knows Gobots is the K-Mart's Transformers". (probably paraphrasing)...Cebus already used K-mart so I threw Sears in there.   Just one of those jokes like I make...You know the kind.  Nobody laughs...Nobody knows what the hell I'm talking about..Oh except people who are drinking or just woke up (There's my people!)

      No, but about twice a year I accidently click on that stealthy 'have you played atari today' link in the top left, and it takes me a couple seconds to figure out what the heck is going on.

      I saw these offers a couple of weeks ago. Started in Brazil and then spread to North America. It seems to be a Brazilian seller, maybe @Capellão or @DablioGames know him. From the position of the SD-Card it looks like it uses the DIY board by @Andrew Davie, but it could also be a custom board.

      What I don't like about most of this seller's listings is the title. He mixes every buzzword from UnoCart, PlusCart to Harmony together, instead of just calling it a PlusCart Duo (by iPlay).

  24. Which  one of you sorry sons a bitches is selling this..
