  1. Got my shopping done for the secret santa, just have to get it packed up and shipped out. :)

  2. Just realized last night that my 2600 M-Network games look a hell of a lot like Intellevision carts.

      They designed their Intellivision shells in such a way that "adapters" for other systems could be added onto them, which reduced their plastic tooling costs. The 2600 cartridges don't stack too well, though.

      How interesting, I'd have never guessed they were actually intellivision games. I agree they are a total pain in the ass, which is why I keep all of mine vertical in box rather then stack them.

      They just took the Intellivision carts and slapped a cheap adapter on them. Ever played Air Raiders? That's one of the Atari 2600's least known gems.

  3. Just saw some photos of the Duo-R I'm going to be buying. Can't wait to get it!

  4. Wow... I'm trying to find the uncut German release for the 1990 movie Hardware and its damn near immpossible thanks to the only thing popping up in searh results being links ot torrents. :/

  5. About to play some Cadash on my TurboGrafx, just arrived in the mail.

  6. Arg! The elusive cheap Neo-Geo pocket color escapes me again. Saw a listing the other day for one with a couple games for $20, emailed them and it was gone already. :(

  7. just placed a bid on a Duo-RX, and now to wait and see what happens.

  8. Beat Ys: The Oath in Felghana last night. Fun game, I'm really digging the Ys series, hopefully the rumor I reath that one more is coming out for the PSP is true and my fingers are crossed that the Vita one gets an english translation.

  9. Day 4 of missed work from being sick. This is getting painful, thats a lot of money I'm missing out on. :( :( :(

  10. lol awesome I just won a free game for the PC Engine Duo... and I haven't even found a console yet. lol

  11. Gonna be posting some CIB game boy advance games an a couple of DS games shortly in the market place. Just as soon as I get a few things sorted I'm gonna head to the post office and see what my options are shipping wise.

      Your post office is open? Mine closed at 11am. :|

      Yeah they are open. Well one of them is. We have two nearby, ones just a little post office, the other is a much larger distribution center and they are open all the time save major holidays.

  12. Just purchased part of my gift for the secret santa, I hope they like it. :)

  13. Its 11-11-11, that means I need to go buy 2 bottles of Stones newest beer. One to drink know, one to set aside to age. :)

  14. Anyone here into lego trains? I've got a 4563 Load and Haul Railroad set I'm looking to trade or sell.

  15. Finally getting to play around with my all time favorite tank in World of Tanks. So far I am disappoint. :(

  16. Day 2 of being sick. Today we have painful coughing and splitting headaches, can't even pass the time with videogames as they are making my headaches worse. :D

  17. So I was reading up about the SNES, a console I've been sadly neglecting and found out there is a game for the Super Famicom I'd really love. Super Bonk 2, man does it look fun. And then I read about the Super Famicom itself. I had forgotten how drop deap sexy the console itself was and no I want one. :(

      T tried pricing them online last night and couldn't find any place with them for sale. I just wish there was a way I could enjoy the sexiness of that console and still play my US games on it.

      Um.. eBay. There is always plenty of them there. Chances are the nicest ones will have to come from Japan, but they are pretty reliable sources.

      There were none on ebay last night. Unless I mispelled it which I'm pretty sure I didn't. :P

  18. Had to call in sick to work today. :/ One thing that sucks about having a job where you handle food is that even if you have just a cough and runny nose you can't work.

    1. Austin

      More time with your Turbo Grafx then, right? :D

    2. A_Locomotive

      A_Locomotive

      Haha very true.

  19. All sorts of goodness arrived in the mail today. 4 TG16 games, 1 new TurboPad, a loose free copy of Crater Maze and an AV cable. I'm ODing on TurboGrafx today.. :D

  20. Just tried out Battlefield 3's campagin and man does it suck, its just not fun.

      that's disappointing...it looked so good too.

      The multiplayer is fantastic though which is why I bought it. The campaign is just nothing but stupid cheap deaths that feel like they should be avoidable but aren't. I quite fairly early on at a section where they told me to man an MG. When I pick it up I'm immediately cut down by fire from every direction by enemies I can't see.

  21. Anyone have any interest in Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Seasons boxed in very good condition?

    1. bomberpunk

      bomberpunk

      perhaps. especially ages.

      If you'd like I could send you some photos tomorrow, for now though its off to bed.

  22. Swap meet was rained out today so I hit up a local music store, came home with 2 Thievery Corporation albums and 1 by Joanna Newsome.

  23. You are now breathing manually. :]

      What! Nobody warned me, and I just can't be bothered with that kind of responsibility right now. I'm a busy man, a very busy man!

  24. You know how Political talk isn't allowed on the forum but always seems to pop up regardless? You know what would be great, if its possible? a subforum where posting is anonymous and people could discuss the topic and not have any ill will towards anyone else since there would be no way to know who you are talking to.

    1. A_Locomotive

      A_Locomotive

      But thats the idea. That way no ill will will build between people here. :) We all joined the forum for a common love, no need to spoil that by having people hate each other. If it was anonymous you could then be annoyed with a faceless person on there and not carry it over into the rest of the forum and tainting it

      PsychoKittyNet

      There is a hidden politcal forum.....

      Really? Where?
