Genesis Portable 80 in 1, any good?
xDragonWarrior replied to amiman99's topic in Classic Console Discussion
The PSP is the best way to go.Not only can it emulate lots of retro consoles pretty good but it can also do the PS1 decent and play PSP games and is around the same price range. -
With the hassle of playing used games,a mandatory 24 hour online check,$100 more than the PS4 and $200 more than the Wiiu. it;s just like the CD-i, a game system with media capabilities that's destined to fail.Everybody with no internet will have no choice but to go to Nintendo or Sony(loss of money there), and the people who rarely/never buys new games will go to either Nintendo or Sony(loss of money there) so that's a huge loss to them and a profit to Nintendo and Sony.What do you think, Do you think it may succeed or go the way of the CD-i, a game system that promised much but ultimately failed.

Genesis Portable 80 in 1, any good?
xDragonWarrior replied to amiman99's topic in Classic Console Discussion
For $30 more I can get a Dingoo with better quality Genesis as well as other console games.No SD card slot so any games not on the console you wanna, you're outta luck.Still good nevertheless. -
how do you classify a "bad" console?
xDragonWarrior replied to xDragonWarrior's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Yeah no console Is bad ,It's the games that make It what It is.For instance,the Game.com had alot of bad games but could have gotten some very impressive games(Metal Gear).The only console that you can say that is truly bad is the R-zone.The games were just interchangeable versions of LCD games so even with current hardware you can't make the games any better than what they were. -
Thanks,will pass it up.

Nes, the Colecovision couldn't have games like the later released Nes games

So there's a N-Gage on Ebay but it will not read a sim card and the sim tray is broken on one side.So will it still be able to play games or would i need a sim card t do so?.Thanks. http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5574883395&toolid=10001&campid=5336500554&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FNokia-N-Gage-QD-Black-Smartphone-%2F330936261846%3Fpt%3DCell_Phones%26hash%3Ditem4d0d569cd6

Does it have to have more good than bad games,more than 1 good game,variety of games or what.The consoles that lots of people say(even though most of the naysayers never even played them) like the CD-I,Jaguar,7800,Ngage,Virtual boy 3DO,Gizmondo etc, they have some good games(Mario clash/tennis,Gex,Sticky balls,Toy golf,Sonic N,Jack bros etc).the R-zone is a mixed console though.If you like the classic Tiger LCD games then you'll like the R-zone but if you don't you'll loath it.So how do you classify a "bad console".I say if it has a few good games on it then it's good.Even with only one good game,if that game is good enough then i would say it's not that bad.And another point i must bring up.it's not the consoles itself that's bad,it's the shitty games that are made for the system that overshadows the good ones(or in the Game.com's case, the horrid screen.for example, playing and fast paced Game.com game on a Game.com looks horrible but played on a emulator, it's much better(Sonic Jam played on the emulator, you can actually run fast and the fighting games are decent).Opinions?

Regrets you may have made with your game collection?
xDragonWarrior replied to ddaniels's topic in Classic Console Discussion
When I was little.my dad(he still does) took me with him to this cleaned out house(I'm assuming he cleaned it out)and when you walked in,there was a N64 and Super Mario 64(don't know why I remember the N64 and Super Mario 64) but Since I wasen't into collecting I passed on it and got a Spider-man and other orangish yellow Marvel action figure instead.Why couldn't my dad say,"do you want this Nintendo to play" and i would have took it but it's not as bad as some of you guys had(must be hard knowing you had some rare games/consoles just thrown/sold away). -
My small GAKKEN TV COMPACTVISION
xDragonWarrior replied to lucifershalo's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Where did you find one.When i get older i am going to strive to get every known console and handheld made but one thing arises.What about consoles like the Gakken TV Compactvision or the 1292 APVS(Advanced Programmable Video system), you don't find them just anywhere.Even it japan where they were released will probably be a hassle just to find, cheap but hard to find.nice collection.Have you played any of the games, if so how are they Graphic wise and how fun they are. -

Xbox killed the used game
xDragonWarrior replied to fiddlepaddle's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I said in my experience, you may see them everywhere but when i go out, i don't see them that much. -
All this recent news of the next gen consoles is why Nintendo (and maybe Sony) will succeed while Microsoft fails. . It will be so much of a hassle just to play/sell a used Xbox one game.Lots of people only buy Used games because there cheaper and because of the hassle just to sell/buy a used Xbox one game all those people will switch to the PS4 or Wiiu because they play used games and you can sell them(loss of customers and money there). .it has to connect online every 24 hours in order for the gaming capabilities to remain.I know alot of people who have Xbox 360/Wii/PS3 and don't have internet so if it has a mandatory 24 hour check to keep the gaming capabilities on,they will switch to the Wiiu or PS4(unless they get internet by then) .The system has to be online in order to play the game and once the live servers go down,you can't play any of your games. If you take away the Microsoft fans that very rarely brought new Xbox 360 games and/or didn't have internet and switched to Sony or Nintendo, that's alot of customers and money given to their rival companies when it could have all been avoided.2014 may be the year Microsoft goes the way of the Dreamcast.

The ABSOLUTE worst games of all time.
xDragonWarrior replied to xDragonWarrior's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Sorry double post but Now thinking about it,Plumbers Don't Wear Ties is the worst game of all time,case closed,end of discussion.With the other games you guys mentioned, at least you can play it and it has at least one redeeming value,With Plumbers Don't Wear Ties has none.It claims to have full motion video but is only has it for the first 2-3 minutes.The rest is a slideshow of what's happening.Even when you have to pick up your controller to choose how to story unfolds is a pain(you only pick up your controller like 3 times the whole game).Each choice has to be read so if you want choice D you have to listen to choice A,B,C,and D.So it's unbearably shitty.If this game had some good jokes than i would give it some credit for having some good jokes and wouldn't be as bad but the acting and jokes are horrible.E.T.(2600),Aquaman(GC),Club drive(Jag),Dark Castle(Gen/CD-I),Psycho fox(SMS),karate,Defender(PS2),Panic!(CD),Empire strikes back(2600) and even Superman 64 has some sort of interactivity and is "playable", Plumber Don't Wear Ties dosen't.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyaF_gCKWsI -

xDragonWarrior replied to xDragonWarrior's topic in Classic Console Discussion
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4-7mWeY_Cs chose the AVGN video because the others don't show how shitty this game really is .There is also a shittier CD-I version which is also in the video -
Xbox killed the used game
xDragonWarrior replied to fiddlepaddle's topic in Classic Console Discussion
When i said the only diference is that someone played it before me,it is implied that there will be scratches,smudges and fingerprints.and in m experience of buying from Gamestop,Play n trade etc,I have never gotten a used copy of a game without a instructions or box. I sometime buy off Ebay(only 5% of my modern game purchases).I scored some months ago Resident Evil 6 when it was $60 in stores for $26,34 dollars cheaper and they all arrive in pretty good condition in fact this goes to something else.Out off all the used games i brought(and i've played the hell out of almost all of them),all of them still work without any problems.not untill i see a used copy of a game i want and it dosent have the manual then i will pay the extra amount but until then it's used games because in my experience t has not failed on me to change it. Not trying to say you're wrong but to let you know my input. -
I believe it's fake(just a dramatization of what a Videogame hoarder would look like),I looked up an episode list and this wasent there but looks legit.Would be funny If after the video,he broke his copy of Earthbound,Action 52 or other rare games by stepping on them!
-
When it looks like this: http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=0rbOs46Sc64 (if link dosen't work it's Hoarders: OBi's Video Game Collecting)and is just thrown everywhere(in the bathroom,floor,kitchen,baby room,garage,basement etc.) and stepping on them without given a F*** than I'd say your a hoarder but If it's on shelves neatly organized in place and not just anywhere(you know your boundaries) than it's not.If your not willing to throw/sell a game in your collection that's broken/no need for than you may also be a hoarder.My logic is up for a debate and discussion.

Atari XEGS: Console or Computer?
xDragonWarrior replied to BassGuitari's topic in Classic Console Discussion
They marketed it as a console so it is a console,case closed(IMO) -
Xbox killed the used game
xDragonWarrior replied to fiddlepaddle's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Who are you to call people idiots for buying the used version because it's $5 less.If i had a choice between a used copy of a game for $45 and a new copy for $50,I'm gonna get the used copy.It's not like a used copy is a watered down version or has a high risk of not working,the only difference is that someone has played it before me.For every used game someone buys,that same game was brought new for more than the person who brought it used( whether It was $5,$10,$20,or even $30 and $40 more),that's still a profit.And I would like to have cash left over for other expenses than spend it all on Videogames.
