Who here is getting an N-GAGE?

[Who here is getting an N-GAGE?]

I was always curious- those games that come on MMC and wafer flashcards, can those be written over (accidental or intentional)?

[GBA Must have!! Please Read!]

Both Sonic Advance games are a breeze to beat, but getting the chaos emeralds will prove to take a few weeks, guaranteed.

[Got a Nomad! Questions... (Was: Is this Nomad fixable?)]

Looks like the liquid crystals might have leaked in that spot. As for the screen, I've never heard of replacement LCDs being easily found- just the protective plastic covers that pop off and can be swapped.

[Removing White Out from carts?]

Oddly enough I love the smell of diesel fuel.  Always reminds me of home.

 

You might appreciate the soybean additive available for diesel cars, it ends up smelling like movie theatre popcorn.

[Any NES homebrewers aroung here ?]

If someone does know how to do this though, I'd pay to have a copy of Earthbound for the NES

 

I'm still looking for the proper donor cart that uses an MMC3 mapper and battery backup. Zelda 2, Dragon Warrior, etc. use a strange MMC1 variation. I think Shadow Gate might work in this instance.

 

@Tennis & AtariYoungin, Ask Bratwurst here on AA or over at Playnintendo.com, I beleive  he's made some EPROM carts  

 

Right now I'm looking to make copies of Recca (Japanese exclusive shooter), I have the roms split, just need to get a proper donor cart, again. Super Mario Bros. 3 supposedly works.

[Kill Your Common Games!]

Not really because those labels are a PITA to remove.  

 

I had read about that elsewhere on Atari Age. Text/Picture labels just soak up cleaning liquid better?

[Free to a good home...]

unfortunately one was Big Nose Freaks Out.

 

And I still haven't quite given up on it yet. One of these days I'm going to experiment some more with it and if I ever do get it working I'll send it right back.

[This kids, is why I advise against Media Mail !]

Media mail is a joke, I always ship at least first class but then my items rarely exceed the size of a shoebox and weigh more than five pounds..

 

A trick I've learned is when you get delivery confirmation / insurance (no matter how much,) the postal employees -do- handle the packages more carefully. It's almost a Pavlov-ian reflex when they see it.

NINJA VANISH!!!!!!

[Turbo Grafx 16 advice thread]

LOL, a PCMCIA card.  

 

NEC was on the ball back then eh?

[Nintendo Part Number Indicator codes]

Gameboy carts (Pre-Advanced atleast) are "DMG" and I guess the original Gameboy is too. WHere that came from is beyond me.

 

Dot Matrix Game.

[Turbo Grafx 16 advice thread]

All these people keep bringing up Magical Chase but has anyone ever found a copy for sale at a reasonable price?

[SMB3 Proto or Pirate?]

You have a pirate, with airbrush altered art from the Super Mario Bros 3 Japanese label. Mario would normally be in front.

[2600, Final Fight Guy for trade.]

What's the 2600 version play like, I've never seen it.

 

It's almost like Double Dragon.

 

If you could pick up River Raid II, how much would you want for it?

 

What's a fair price for a loose copy with good label? I'll pick it up sometime this weekend and let you have it for a little less than it goes for just to cover my time/gas.

[2600, Final Fight Guy for trade.]

[2600, Final Fight Guy for trade.]

2600, cart only:

 

Cruise Missile (defective, contacts on cart corroded!)

Eggomania GONE

Tomcat F-14 Simulator by Absolute GONE

 

SNES Final Fight Guy Blockbuster exclusive

 

Risk, boxed, Genesis

 

I could also pick up a 2600 River Raid II sometime next week if anyone's interested.

 

I collect NES, SNES, Boxed genny, etc. etc.

 

*edit* Some stuff gone!

[Kirby meets "Lololo and Lalala" in Avalanche]

Lololo and Lalala were also in the original Gameboy Kirby game- Lolo happens to be a Hal Labs creation. Same as Kirby.

[My SeanBaby collection is complete!]

Play one a day.

[Sega Genesis "Funny World and Balloon Boy"]

For a buck you can't really go wrong. Some bad games are meant to be enjoyed via the merit of their badness.

[Same game, different name]

The NES Adventure Islands were the same games as the SMS Wonderboys.

 

Well, the first one was. After that they each went different ways with Wonderboy adopting a swords and fantasy type setting while Adventure Island perpetuated that tropical island dealie, along with riding pet animals.

 

Super Adventure Island II -did- feature swords, armor and shields though. Reminded me alot of Wonderboy when I first saw it.

[Has this ever happened to anybody?]

If that ever happened to me I'd probably try to rig the original game rom back in with burned eeproms or something. Really irresponsible thing to do.

[Is this a good price? RCR for NES]

Wow. Boxed. I don't believe those pop up very often, it wouldn't surprise me if at the last minute this went into the hands of a serious collector and not some 0-1 feedback flunky.

 

PS. People who write marker on their carts suck.

[NES collectors look what i just won!]

A while ago it wasn't uncommon to buy a set for about 125, but prices fluctuate. I would say 75$ is fair market value, ebay just inflates everything.

[Best examples of Saturn eye candy?]

I do have this thou' date=' so [/quote']

 

There's a certain irony in that.
