If Phillipa Soo were a guest at Coleco Expo, I'd hold my nose and "buy a ticket online" too!

But in this exercise, you only get one good game. Need to follow instructions, see me after class. F

Whoops! I'm an idiot. At least I didn't use a Web TV email address in public for almost six years. He was an early adopter of eBay, arriving there more than a year than I did. That's a long time!

That was breathtakingly snarky. I'll bet a 3D golf game could be done on the VCS. I'm somewhat surprised no one has been crazy enough to try.

Aww, he's entitled to a little change of scenery. Most species of chameleons live less than 5 years, so he's way ahead of the odds. I am more impressed/intrigued/flabbergasted by the use of a Web TV email address for almost SIX YEARS, until a few days after the announcement of the end of the service. Per Wikipedia, It's certainly "retro" styled, I suppose. What I need to know is this: Does the new name signify "Arizona Stuff" or "Arizona's Tuff"? And if it's "tuff," do we mean a light, porous rock formed by consolidation of volcanic ash, or an intentional "cute" misspelling of "tough?" And why am I reminded of the husky boy jeans sold by Sears of the 1970s? Keep chasing that chuckwagon!

that one looks like it needs a dust cover, badly! I want to write WASH ME on it.

What an annoying tease. I wouldn't have heard anything about it if not for this thread!

Not if you keep replying to it!

You say gullible, I say desperate.

Yes, still seems pretty clear to me. COLECO seems to have stopped "doing its business" (in the sense of what my dog does on your lawn) on the community.

I feel like video games have always been in their own section in toy stores -- at least as long as I can remember, and in the vanishing category of big box toy stores. I have to drive over 30 miles to get to a Toys R Us nowadays. I remember when they were sold in drug stores, too. But that was like 30 years ago, when there were independent and small chain drugstores, and not everything was part of a national brand.

Without a dynamic soundtrack, what's the point? You could just play it on the stereo or headphones in the same room for an identical effect.

I just wanted to say that while I haven't had time to sit down with these games, it's fun to see everyone so active, and a little weird to see so many modern flat panel displays playing ancient VCS games!

Add to the list -- pendants who take issue with words used

Here's a list of stuff I remember and like.

Not sure if that is directed here or not, but the dictionary says ... (see 1b) Definition of trope 1a : a word or expression used in a figurative sense : figure of speechb : a common or overused theme or device : cliché the usual horror movie tropes

Starting at $999. Classy

True enough. I think I'd take a Tesla Model S over a plastic Xbox controller every time.

Game over, yeah!

Somehow it seems better suited to a terminal with a keyboard than a rubbery joystick with a single button.

That's just stupid ...for that kind of cash, you could easily build something a lot nicer using real controls from airplanes and automobiles.

The Lynx FAQ is still the place to start imho http://www.atariage.com/Lynx/faq/

Because it's easier to throw ROMS at an emulator?

That's exactly what I would say if I intended to steal it for myself.
