  1. I've accidentally done frying on NES once, maybe it's ability to fry is what causes it to start blinking after the card port gets bent out of shape? You can probably fry any system with a click style pushbutton, not the rubber graphite button like newer consoles have.
  2. Marble Craze is good muxic, Combat Rock was cool I thought, Pitfall II (though it's copyrighted and you have no chance of getting rights to do it) And hear the theme on Test Cart? I'm sure there's plenty of people who would be willing to make music for the 2600 Dance cart, if the makers need help.
  3. Cool, how hard would it be to convert to other stuff? I'd be interested in trying a menue on a 16k cart with a bunch of the little 1k homebrew games that will probably never see the light of day in cart form. It'd be cool to do.
  4. If I remember right, there was a lawsuit in the early eighties that Atari lost. It was either with Activision, over licensing rights, or with Coleco/Intelivision over the 2600 plug in. I don't remember wich, but Atari wanted money for it, and basically lost on account of the system being made from off the shelf parts. Weather those parts are still available, just depends on their usefull ness in other things, like little kids toys, maybe that talking GI Joe has a 6502 in it?
  5. Simple ports of games that were intended for the 64. Yeah, their great games, but don't push the GameCube the way they should have, and would have had they been made ground up for the cube. Nintendo should have pushed the games out the door for 64 like they were supposed to be, and made new ones for the Cube. That's it basically, games. I gotta take mine back, it made a funny sound, left a big scratch on my Starfox disc, and won't read games anymore. :
  6. I loved these games myself. GameBoy Super Mario Land, You know what mario is, right? Super Mario Land 2: 6 golden coins, looked great, played great. Wario Land, Super Mario Land 3, Don't know why it was called Mario, but great original Wario, got his start here. Wario Land 2 Wario Land 3 Pac-Man, classic Pac-man action in full screen. Ms Pac-Man, MS pac, great handheld version. TMNT Back from the sewers (I think), great TMNT game, a little easy, but great none the less. Tetris, one of the most well known puzzles out there Dr Mario, great puzzle game Zelda, plays like the SNES game, awesome game in itself. FaceBall 2000, Great FPS for GameBoy. Get four for four player link play. World cup Soccor, choppy charactures, but great beyond that. Konami Classics. They were packed two per cart, and there's four, or five carts. SGB supported Games Space Invaders, Cool SGB support Donkey Kong, awesome DK style game with extra moves, best use of SGB Pokemon yellow, the others are good to, but of the original run, this is the best. Killer Instinct, kinda hard to see but great on SGB GameBoy Color Games Super Mario Bros Deluxe, Super Mario Bros from original NES, near pixel perfect conversion Zelda DX, same DMG game, but with GBC color palates Zelda, orricle of ages/time, New game in the style of DX, a lot bigger Tetris DX, same DMG with color, slightly easier though. Warlocked, RTS game, in the vein of Warcraft, not quiet as complex, but an absolutely awesome game on GBC Top Gear Pocket, great racing game, neat rumble cart was cool. Pokemon Pinball, awesome, probably best pinball game on pre GBA handhelds, rumble feature again, is awesome. Kirby Tilt'n'Tumble, Kirby rolls with one of the most unique controll schemes built into the cart (won't work on SP or Player) Pokemon Crystal, great second game, Gold And Silver were great too, but this went that extra step like yellow for the first. Pac-Man, great color conversion Ms, Pac-Man with Super Pac man on it (or was it on Pac-Man?) These are my faves just off the top of my head. But their all great games.
  7. If I was a F(censor)ing moron, then yes. The guy missed the whole point. I seriously doubt anybody was depressed because their games and stuff got ruined, their depressed for the unreplacable stuff that got ruined. If something happened to my house, yeah, I'd be upset, where would I go till I got a new one? I don't live on a floodplain or anything, but you know, fire and stuff can happen, and you can't do anything about that beyond live as safely as you can. But all the games I can get replaced. Sure, it may cost a lot, but there's nothing really rare in my collection. In fact, most the games I value most, are ultra commons you can get at the local pawn shop. What would really piss me off is if something happened to my J/B comics collection. It was an official comic for the school paper for several years, but I knew the guys that did it, and got almost all of the originals, and many rejects. It's not exactly an heirloom, but it's the closest thing I got. That's not something you can just go on Ebay and buy daily, and they would actually be irreplacable. Most of it is one of a kind stuff and it's not coming back cause the crew doesn't exist anymore, and one of the guys that drew it died. Yeah, maybe people think highly of their games collection, but if our house burned down, I wouldn't miss the X-Box, PS2 or GameCube, or the other stuff. The thing I would be most upset about is my original Atari, The systems can easily and cheaply be had, but it's the sentamental value that's been placed on it over something like 20 years that makes it valuable, that and the fact it was given to me by my grandmother who's not here anymore. I find that picture kind of depressing, if the guy wanted to part with it, just to see if he could, why didn't he drop it off at some poor persons house? Give it to the bum living on the corner who's to poor to know if he's going to eat that day. I mean, not everybody has the cash to throw around on new stuff, and it might hurt a little, but it would bring much joy to somebody else. Then Again, I never could stand people who break stuff just for the sake of breaking it when there's lots of other people who would gladly take it off your hands. Yeah, he tried one person, whooptidoo.
  8. Get one of those lynx battery packs. They take 6 D's, and you'd just have to supply the plug to go in the GameGear.
  9. I had rampage for the 2600 and really loved it as a kid, but the cart died a long time ago (probably due to some jackass useing it as a table leg) and it doesn't work now. I got the emu, but it's not the same. Anybody got a copy for sale really cheap? I know its a R5, but I haven't seen it on Ebay. Doesn't have to look good or anything I just want a play copy so I can play it on a real system again. Thanks for any help.

    Mario Bros

    Sweet, a red lable Mario, now you got something rare LOL
  11. Oops, missed the post. Sorry. I really need to scroll down befor answering so I don't reanswer an answer that was already answereed...if that makes scense. LOL
  12. I think there's supposed to be a DDR style game coming. Isn't it a CoOp job between that guy who made the Dancing Baby demo, and someone else? Anyhow, Arrows go by, you push the joystick or touch pad that direction, and the baby dances. Something that would be cool to do is have a car port on top so you can add a cart with more tunes. Would never happen, but would be cool.

    Mario Bros

    Do what I do, keep the nice one put up, and play the trashy looking one. Or give it to me so I can do that LOL
  14. I have and love Assualt Rigs, but I threw the box out a long time ago. Comeon, a single box that takes up as much space as 8 CD cases (four stacked ontop of another four) I doubt the box size has much to do with how good a game is, they just did that because cart boxes used to be huge, and wanted something that was as much eye candy as the cart consoles were. All Sega CD and Saturn boxes are big boxes I believe. Coul be wrong though.
  15. I only have 15 games for the box, but it's more than my PS2 and GameCube collections combined. I collect, when I have the cash and a supply of cheap games. Right now, I'm more interested in original X-Box Controllers. They don't make them anymore, and the new controller has the buttons rearanged, which I don't like (pluss it's a little smaller, but I could get used to that, if it was keyed the same still)
  16. Heck yeah. Metroid is one of the first games that went from 2D-3D and was actually better IMO. I sucked at the original ones, but I loved the cube version. Anyone for giving Metroid it's own class? FPAP (First Person Action Platformer) Yeah, it's basically a 3D platformer in the vein of Mario, but Mario didn't have straifing either. Nor did it need it. Yeah, I know you can straife on MP, but it's been dumbed down to holding a button and driving around, rather than dual stick setup. Sure, it's useable, but for those of us that grew up on shoulder button straifing, or Keyboard/Mouse, it's impracticle. LMAO @ Foxy Cleopatra. that was good there. I believe PuddWakkr hit the nail on the head. The game got a perfect score by most people, due to name recognition. I don't think that's right, but that's what happened.
  17. That's a pretty slick little system there. I'd love one, but the $300 (or is it $400) price tag is out of my range
  18. Doesn't the GameBoy version repeate Level 20 once you beat it? I mean, there's not much room to add more viruses, but it may speed up slightly. Boy, it's hard enough just beating 20, then doing it again. Yeah< I bought WarioWare because I heard about DRMario being on it. Over all, I was dissappointed in WarioWare, and DR Wario was way to easy.
  19. I'd certainly love to get a SMS whenever you put them up for sale. You got a store eh? You got an online link or just offline? Huh, .85A huh? I wonder why the GameGear says 3a? Maybe it was supposed to be .3, I need to go look and make sure they didn't slip in a decimalpoint or something. Yeah, that looks like the Genesis supply.
  20. Looks like, The Battle of Olympus Don't hold me to that though. If you have the poster, it was probably a lot easier for you to read than us to read that small pic. What did you mean, what's it about or like?
  21. My faves from the 70's is Bowling, Breakout, and Combat. I don't remember what was from when though.
  22. CX2632P Doesn't the P mean pal? Anyhow, I thought Asteroids were all blue lables? Or you mean non picture lables or what? I may be confusing with another game, I'll have to go look again to make sure I didn't mix the two up.
  23. Remember, currency conversions. A US dollar is $1, and a UK Dollar is $1.60. You get a Jag CD for $70 in the UK, and it will cost over $100, then you factor in something like $25 shipping, if your lucky. I've often pondered getting a Jag CD that worked, but didn't work, and replacing the CD gear drives and motors. Dunno though.

    Atari Karts

    Wow, really? I could have sworn this game was around $100, the reason I stayed away from it. $50 isn't so bad IMO. Cool, they got kind of a ...hmm....voxel effect to the playing field or something eh? That sounds cool, like GT Advance 2 maybe, but sounds more extreme from the way you talk of it. Anyhow, thanks for the help. I'm definately going to get this now, I think I may have the money now even. I'll definately look for boxed sets though.
  25. I would assume the same way you did with PSX, with a DexDrive. But I'm not sure if they have them for PS2
