I'm interested in a jaguar case if the post issue is addressed. I'd also love a jag cd case when you're ready.

Ordered both, thanks! Thanks! Ordered both!

Dammit. I missed this and K.C. I knew I shouldn't have waited till payday.

IMHO the problem with Atari's marketing for the Jaguar was that the games didn't match up with the numbers and image they were promoting. If the earliest launch titles had the "next gen" quality of the later games, it may have worked. You can't tout 4 times the power and launch with Raiden, Dino Dudes and Trevor McFur. Other games like Checkered Flag and Club Drive were horribly implemented and didn't look or play nearly as good as Road Rash or Need for Speed on the 32 bit 3DO. The good games came (that's why we're all here) but if you are going to market by numbers, you have to back it up. Because they talked about the power of the system so much, Atari made the Jaguar an easy target for gaming mags when the half assed games were pushed out the door.

I loved the Saturn. One of the great underdog systems in the history of gaming. I got rid of mine in 1998 and have regretted it ever since. Some of my favorites off of the top of my head: Shining the Holy Ark Iron Storm Virtual Fighter Kids Sonic Fighters Virtual Fighter 2 Fighting Vipers Virtual Cop Virtual Cop 2 Sega Rally Championship House of the Dead Panzer Dragoon Panzer Dragoon 2 Panzer Dragoon Saga Bug! Tomb Raider Croc Virtual On Nights

It's 7800 all the way for me!

I have a soft spot for the 7800 version. Sure it suffers from the same wonky sound as 7800 DK and DK Jr. But it's very playable and looks good. Does anyone else think that the Mario sprite in the 7800 version looks like the "small" Mario from NES SMB?

37,400 after five rounds. I don't know if I'll get another shot tonight but I wanted to participate anyway. Also, Commander Williams is lucky at the abundance of spare spacecraft parts on these planets!

We don't have a Dollar General in my area but I went to their site and picked up the Intellivision and Colecovision FBs. $61 with tax. Not bad.

I just ordered the Intellivision and Colecovision FBs from their site. $61 after tax. Not bad.

Do you have a pic of the modded 5200?

I watched these through '84. It's entertaining enough but these guys tend to get a lot of the facts wrong. It's the same thing with a lot of the retro gaming podcasts. The problem is that the misinformation hangs in the air and gets regurgitated over and over again and people think it's fact. It's kinda like AM talk radio for gamers.

1. 7800 2. 2600 3. 5200 I don't have it on 8-bit but imagine its similar to the 5200 version. If we're bringing handhelds into it, the Lynx is my number 2 version.

This looks fantastic and I can't wait to try the bin. I'm in for a boxed cart if it's released. 30+ years on a Pac-man is still something I can pick up and play. It's amazing how this game continues to hold interest.

Doesn't Barkley SU&J utilize Team Tap?

I second Mario Bros., Food Fight, Joust, Xevious and Robotron. That said, if you want to give them the true 7800 experience, you've got to give them an exclusive. I recommend Ninja Golf!

+1. Because it reminds me of Death Race 2000. Fantastic looking work to all involved. Can't wait to play it!

Euro pads are readily available from Best Electronics.

I'm glad I picked this up in September. The Super Fighter Team page has been updated saying Zaku is now sold out. http://www.zaku-lynx.com/purchase.htm Good Deal Games still shows availability.

I'm in for the next Pokey DK run. I have the XM version but this EXCELLENT game deserves to be played With Pokey sound on a stock 7800.

Speaking of... It doesn't look like either of the MIDI2600 kits are available in the store currently.

Synthcart is going to be my next purchase. Has anyone tried the internal MIDI mod? Is it difficult? I want to mod a light sixer with MIDI and composite so I can use a MIDI controller and stereo out.
