The SX-64 I have was given to my Uncle when he was an Executive at Nabisco in the 80's and my Father got my brother and I a Vic-20 then a C-64 for schoolwork and learning to code. When I went to College in 1987 the SX-64 went with me and was my computer in school until I switched to PC stuff. So essentially they were all originally intended to be "work" machines but ultimately became "game" machines as well. Side story: On the last day of highschool in 1987 when no one actually did any work I took the SX-64 to school and had a game tournament. Each class we played a different game (I think there was 8 of us playing) until the period was over. In our last class the top 2 players squared off in a best of 5 tournament with the game being chosen by the first place person. I was second and the other guy decided on Karate (IK). It came down to the final match and I lost. That thing weighed an ass ton but I didn't think a thing of it because I felt 10 feet tall walking the halls with a "portable" computer.

Did your collection survive the crash?
Hyperboy replied to Keatah's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Although my stuff didn't get used as much my mom kept everything stored that my brother and I had as kids. As I added consoles and computers and grew with the times my mom kept everything nice and neat. Handheld games, toys, video games, etc.. When I started collecting again it was all ready to go! She even kept my Pez collection I started as a little kid in storage bins without me even knowing. Sent from my non beer holding hand. -
So I Got Lost In the Forest...
Hyperboy replied to VectorGamer's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I have 5 spinal fusions with rods and screws, bone taken out of my hip and a bullet lodged in my spine along with nerve damage on my right side. The drug companies want to charge me $1000 a month to poison me with little in the way of relief except to their balance sheets. I wasn't a big pot smoker until the drugs prescribed to me nearly killed me 8 years ago, literally. Now my current Dr. wishes he could prescribe weed and has no qualms about recommending it as my therapy once it becomes legal. So to put things in a nutshell, the opioid pharmacuetical industry can go fuck itself! Mother Nature, thanks for having my back! (No pun intended). Sent from my non beer holding hand. -

@Mitkraft He went to sign up to volunteer and happened upon this. He's a great kid with a kind heart. Thank you for the kind words! He is graduating high school next month (he turned 15 in February) and starts college in the fall. I'm very proud of him! Sent from my non beer holding hand. -

+1 for Flojo on the screen cover. It doesn't look like there is one and it's a bitch to get started but removing the screen protector will make a difference. Sent from my non beer holding hand.

Left if I'm typing Sent from my non beer holding hand. -
One of my tanksticks I made into a custom controller unit. The left stick is setup as 4-way at a 45 degree angle for Q-bert, A spinner in the middle and the right stick is a 4-way for precision cornering (a changeable 2/4/8 way gate is there if need be).

A Gamer's Paradise (retro games and repair shop) is located right next to the Pinball HOF. Cool place. Had a mini museum of consoles and an actual Asteroids arcade cabinet for sale. This was 2 years ago.
