The Wico sticks are pretty popular around here, but have about as many haters as fans.

Fixed the what now?

... is this an offer or something?

More like chuckin' sawblades into dudes' faces...

I played a bit of it on an emulator & wasn't sure if the slowness was part of the game code or the hardware & emulator's fault. I figure it'd still be worth a few bucks though...

Ah, I'd like to get my hands on a copy of the Activision Anthology cart for GBA. The nearest store I can find with a copy is a several-hour drive away, and tough to find on ebay for less than $20-25.

1) Yes, it was featured in the movie Grandma's Boy. 2) Yes, it really does stink. Sorry, what were the questions again?

Ewwwwww... Wisconsin.

Hey, they made plenty of shooters for the NES, too... most even SCROLL, if you can imagine that.

I never understood the corporate drive to shave off a few pennies by dumping cheap & useful features such as connectors or nickel ICs. Sure, those pennies add up to big bucks, but lost sales of entire consoles add up to bigger bucks. Eh, all they had to do was pull a Namcot.

But... how many prototypes were made in factories? I thought those were made by hand as needed? "Games nobody heard of" could just mean that nobody she knew was really into 'em.

You'll probably pay the same for a 7800 w/ cords & controllers without games as you would for one with a small collection of 2600 games. They don't really figure into the price much.

The "86bit" is the one you'd want, it's 32-bit x86 for your 32-bit x86 processor. It should be working. What sort of error are you seeing?

Another DK vote here. DK's a game; SQ's a gamepiece.

This is hardly scientific, but I think most of the heat you feel on a cart is rising out of the console itself. The wooden cart might help insulate the game chip(s) a little bit.

I always figured atari's mascot was Joust, or one of those other games they trot out on every system.

Gauntlet has a good combo of gameplay & laffs

Holy hell, £250 for the system? Anybody care to convert that to today's USD (adjusting for inflation)? That sounds like a crazy amount of cash.

What the guy above said... also, composite cables with a mini DIN connector on one end are far less common than standard RCA cables.

69SB, do you realize that these things are not vintage or classic hardware, so none of them are worth more than a few bucks? These are all made in the past few years.

Try playing a game with it though... different story altogether.

Just be careful next time.

No. There's just not much demand for 'em.

I imagine they're all the same...

Yeah, I would've wired it to those microswitches right away... I bet that'll make it work wonderfully.
