  1. So I know the lcd screen is the enemy of the light gun game, but is there a modern tv option that is friendly to old school zappers? I just realized that I'm on my last crt television for my game room and life without the occassional zapper game gives me a major sad.


  2. oooooooh neat. I had forgotten about those. I'm glad I still have my Tekken ps1 stick. For that matter, my diy x-arcade project might get some love this way. GB, you are the man. Whats the est price and time frame on those?


  3. That was awesome! Thanks Curt!

     

    In regards to the Cuttle Cart, Has any of the other guys tested theirs for you? I know it sounds crazy, but I have 3 copies of Berzerk and all work on my 2600. Of those, only 1 works on either of my 7800s. Just wondering if your particular CC hates the XM. It wouldn't be the first time an Atari cart played favorites amongst the systems for seemingly no reason.

     

    The XM looks awesome!


  4. AX, I'm a fan of your nes conversions. If I can get my car paid off this contract year, I 'll probably come begging for an Advantage. I was burned back in the day on the Freedom Stick thinking it was 7800 friendly out of the box. Great stick for the C64 though. I saw your T16 sticks in the marketplace... I never knew those existed. How are they?


  5. I imported a 7800 pad but I havent seen anything else with two button support without modding. Anyone know if a Sega extension cable will work with the 7800 pads.. they're ok, but the cord is super short.


  6. Geez Cebus.. maybe you should change your avatar to Rodney Dangerfield. Cause, ya know...

     

    On a side note... could you make a lamp that still functioned as a console? That would just make my wife nuts. :) Big fan of the lamp btw. I was inspired to turn my 360 into a toaster, but then I realized no modification was needed.

     

    back on topic...

    silly question... did you try a different AC adapter? That aside just check your internal connections and solder points.


  7. I have an old Marvel comic/magazine called Blip that has a number of laughable gamer articles and artwork. I think the add on back was Tutankham. I'll have to dig it out. Scans of it are at retromags. They didn't credit me for it though that sometimes cheeses me off, but whatever. I used to love the clueless way games were addressed in comics and Saturday morning cartoons.


  8. Congrats! lol. One of my friends dragged a box of 2600 games to work got me all excited by showing me a number of games I needed (Stargate and Defender II?) Then when I thought she was going to tell me to keep them, she asked me to see if I could fix her busted system. doh! Then she brings hers and I feel obligated to look at it. It is covered in cat spray. I now think I know what the issue is but have no interest in touching it any further. No H6 should die of cat tinkle electrical death but I think that is what happened. After all that, she just put them back in her attic.

    Point is, I'm jealous. Welcome to AA.
