What Does Complete Mean to You?
JerryTerrifying replied to cvga's topic in Classic Console Discussion
You are technically correct which is the best kind of correct. I think what part the problem may be in regards to TG16 stuff is that not many people know they came in cardboard boxes. Not everyone selling video games on ebay actually cares about video games. -
I think this critic is aimed to the lack of BIG 3rd party support. I mean, yeah, there was EA, but they were publishing their games on every support. I mean, where was Capcom, Konami, Interplay, GT Interactive, etc...? Air Warrior and Policenauts were released on the 3DO and MGS was originally planned as a 3DO game so Konami definitely did support the 3DO. I have the Policenauts Pilot disc for the 3DO. Konami also used a modified version of the M2 as an arcade board and made 5 games. Interplay published about 10 games for the 3DO. Capcom released what was at the time the best version of Street Fighter II. So if you actually look there's a lot of support from three of the four companies you mentioned.

SHOW THE SEGA SATURN LOVE, PEOPLE!
JerryTerrifying replied to Tales from the Game Room's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Pffft only two Saturns. I've got 5. Get on my level. I just region modded my Saturn a few months ago although it's not finished. Right now the switch is just hanging out of the case on wires. It took me like 4 years to do the region mod and I'm sure it'll take just as long before I get a bug up my ass to mod the case. I agree about using a region switch over the import cart. I'm one of a select few weirdos that uses the Netlink so I usually have that in the cart slot and I try to avoid cart swapping as much as possible. -
Hooking up systems
JerryTerrifying replied to Videogamecollector123's topic in Classic Console Discussion
My TV has a ps3 via HDMI, 360, Wii, Xbox via Component. Gamecube, N64, SNES, NES, Dreamcast, Saturn, Genesis/32X/Sega CD, Master System, TG16, 3do, Neo Geo, Jaguar, Laserdisc player plugged into two automatic AV selectors. One of the AV selectors has Y adapters in each input making it accept 8 systems. The two outputs from the two AV selectors go into the back of my DVD recorder again with Y cables. Then the output from DVDr goes into the TV input. So I can record gameplay of anything at the touch of a button. All the Power cords are plugged into Power Squids which I personally find to be hideous but super functional. -
Awesome find. Sounds like you've got a model 1 Sega CD which I personally find to be a beautiful piece of Sega engineering.

Best Consoles for Game Store Display
JerryTerrifying replied to 98PaceCar's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I think the general gaming public would be more interested in the lesser known things. It's cool to see new things and not the same old crap over and over. -
Opinion of Neo Geo Pocket Color
JerryTerrifying replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Classic Console Discussion
There are some really good games on the system. It's a shame it didn't get more support and see more software. If you get one cheap enough it's very much worth owning for the few games it has. -
NES and SNES I don't care about getting them complete. Master system and Genesis I preffer complete but will geta loose game if it's significantly cheaper.

How much would you pay for a Neo Geo AES
JerryTerrifying replied to ATARI7800fan's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I bought my AES about a year and a half ago for $120 shipped with a complete copy of Samurai Spirits. I bought it from a friend on another forum that had a second one and know I got a deal. But that's what I paid. -
What about all the batteries in those carts?
JerryTerrifying replied to fiddlepaddle's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I've replaced all the batteries in all of my NES games and added battery holders so that I won't have to do any soldering in the future. It takes about 5 to 10 minutes per game. The only game that had a dead battery was Zelda II though...the rest of the battery swaps I did before starting the games so that I don't have to worry about losing a save before I got around to beating the game. -
What would you pay for...
JerryTerrifying replied to isatonmyhat's topic in Classic Console Discussion
On my craigslisst I see Genesis go for as little as $5 and usually no more than $15. In one day on craigslist I got 3 Genesis and 30 complete games (Gunstar Heroes and Kid Chameleon being the only ones I cared about) for $30 bucks. -
Sealed NES Control Deck, 1987 Version
JerryTerrifying replied to SoulBlazer's topic in Classic Console Discussion
A video tour would make a great youtube video. -
X-Band Revived... (X-Band 2.0)
JerryTerrifying replied to rush6432's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Now that would be freakin' sweet. -

The Ugliest Looking Game System Ever!
JerryTerrifying replied to Charlie Cat's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I actually think the Jaguar looks like a space ship haha. Looks like something a Predator would cruise around in looking for game. -
2 worthy video game podcasts
JerryTerrifying replied to S1500's topic in Gaming Publications and Websites
No, no I'm a real life champion. I run marathons and want to train to complete the Iron Man I used to power lift but had to stop so that I'd have time to train for marathons and local triathalons. But I do want to be the king of youtube and podcasting. -
Can't decide whitch to get.
JerryTerrifying replied to PsychoKittyNet's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Im so jealous! I really really want a Turbo Booster + so I can save games. I hate passwords. I've got the Turbo Booster that just lets you use composite video which is cool....but I'd love to be able to save games like Neutopia. -
The Ugliest Looking Game System Ever!
JerryTerrifying replied to Charlie Cat's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I think the 2600, 5200 and 7800 are hideous. I'd say everything made by Atari but I think the Jaguar and Lynx look all right. Basically anything made before 1985 looks like dick. -
The Ugliest Looking Game System Ever!
JerryTerrifying replied to Charlie Cat's topic in Classic Console Discussion
They designed the NES to look like a VCR so it would look like it belonged in an entertainment system. All the other game consoles before that looked like goofy clown toys. After the market crash they wanted something that looked like serious electronics equiptment. -
Most of the video game related stuff is sold on www.shopgoodwill.com so I don't know if its on shelves and listed online or if its all just posted online. But I buy a lot of game stuff from their online store and get great deals. It sucks that the employees get first dibs on stuff but I'm sure he did pay and I'm sure there is an employee discount. It just sucks that he's there to get first picks on stuff. IF you're looking for deals I suggest craigslist and garage sales.

An annoying thing about some RPGs
JerryTerrifying replied to Classic Pac's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Surely you mean non-linear - Zelda was one of the first major non-linear console games THIRD GAME? seriously, why would you tell us about this if we can't have it? Yeah, I bought you this talking robot, it remembers your birthday, and has a tv in its stomach, dispenses beer and will play games with you and is a chick magnet also, but it stepped in a puddle on the way home and shorted out, and it was the only model in existence... True you don't have to do any of the dungeons in a specific order but I still think of it as a pretty linear game. There's no real branching elements. Get 8 pieces of Tri force or 8 instruments or 8 something or others and beat Ganon. It's all pretty much the same thing over and over. And that robot sounds pretty rad. Yeah man I remember reading in a game magazine back in the day talking about the Zelda Triforce Series. I'm sure google could get you some information. Two linked together games is still amazing none the less.
