Madaracs

I will publicly out myself. I did not send out my gift to my SS in time because I was waiting for items I purchased online to arrive. I didn't own anything that really fit what my person was into, so I hunted some stuff down. When some of the items I purchased didn't arrive before I went away on vacation, I knew there was going to be a problem. Sure enough, when I got back, they were waiting for me in my mailbox. I got them out as quick as I could. Maybe I should have taken care of it sooner, but it's not like I was trying to rip anyone off and I think it's wrong for people to just assume the worst in others. Sometimes things happen and things get delayed. I just wanted to throw that out, for what it's worth. But, if a public shaming would help: SHAME ON ME! I'M SCUM! I SUCK! It's nice to have someone say "I'm runnin' late." And I think we're all OK with that. (I know I'm not supposed to be reading this thread. I said I wasn't gonna. But I can't help it.) Anyway, don't feel shamed. If you eventually follow through--that's better than not! Dude. You must chill. I HAVE HIDDEN YOUR KEYS!!!

If this is the Power Joy version I think it is, that cartridge is a Famicom cart. You can use a Famicom to NES adapter and play the cart natively on an NES. I believe this is the game list: 80 Days 1942 Arkanoid Aladdin III Argus Adisland ASCII Arabian Badminion Baltron B-Wings Balloon Fight Bird Week Boomman Brush Roller Clay Shoot Chack and Pop Circus Charlie City Connection Challenger Dig Dug Dough Boy Druaga Devil World Dingdong Door Door Dynamite Bowl Elevator Action Exerion Formation Z Front Line Fire Dragon, Flappy Flipull Field Combat Galaga Galg Geimos Gyrodine Gotcha Galaxians Gradius Hyper Olympic Joust Karateka Kage Lode Runner Lunar Ball Macross Magic Jewellery Magmax Mappy Millipede Ninja Fighter Ninja II Nuts and Milk Othello Pooyan Pac Land Pandamar Penguin Route 16 Raid on Bay Road Fighter Soccer Sky Destroyer Space ET Star Gate Star Force Son Son Spartan Spelunker Spy vs. Spy Sqoon Star Luster Tag Team Tank Twin Bee Wrestling Wrecking Crew Wisdom Warp Man Xevious Zippy Race

I think Tutankham deserves only a "C" too. The graphics are good, but the movement of the sprites is choppy. This game could have been done better.

Thanks everyone for this thread! I just ordered two bezels from Best! My main unit actually had the plastic on it when I bought it, but it had been dented previously. My other 7800 is pretty banged up and this will make it look brand-spankin' new! Heh. I also ordered the Tempest 2000 soundtrack he has on his site.

Nice work on the reviews. I mostly agree with them. Though I think Star Wars probably deserves a better rating because at the time only it and the C64 were able to even come close to the arcade version. Spy Hunter rocks. The music is actually better than the arcade in that it plays the entire song throughout. The real arcade played only snippets of Peter Gunn when you first started and would go silent and only restart when the truck dropped you off after an upgrade. If you have any desire whatsoever to have that problem fixed, your switch is probably at fault. Yurkie offers a repair service for this (as I'm sure you're well aware) and it will work like new with no sprite problems when he's done. I have actually replaced the switches on 2 of my CVs with industrial switches from Ax-Man... a local gadget/odds-and-ends shop here in town.

The Best of the Flock of Seagulls on CD! $1.99!

But what if I already have them?

What? You're trying to save $1? It's worth at least $100 +shipping.

I love the smell of canned-corn in the morning.

I too received mine some time ago. It was packaged beautifully and the box is awesome. Mine was loaded with Venture!

Cool to see one with the plastic still intact. http://www.shopgoodwill.com/viewItem.asp?ItemID=7250594

I would laugh my ass off if I got a box full of E.T.s P.S., I always read your posts in Zod's voice. It makes me happy.

PM Sent!

Several of us. Me included. And although I think it is great that my s.s. Person received their gift, I think those that back out should not be allowed to participate in future years. I find it highly doubtful that 4 gifts were "lost" in the mail. I am going to stop reading this thread now because it's a little too frustrating.

It won't matter what shape it's in. When you get it back--it will be like new.

So what do we do if we never got anything from the secret santa? Report back to Ax? This little game has lost its luster for me... It was fun to give. Maybe i'll take solace in that.

Any word on the ship date for the XM? Did I miss a post, if so I apologize for the unintentional nag.

Ok, one last price drop then I move them over to Game Gavel or freakBay.

Sekrit Santa ain't brought me jack. I QUIT.

Target Fun is Sold!

Price check on aisle 4! Lowered the price... Someone must want these. Trade me for something!

OK, I'm told that my price isn't low enough for AA members. I'm OK with that. Make me an offer.

Bump. Price added.
