  1. Did the fold out ad for the white atari cartridges come with it too? or was that a cartridge pack in?
  2. Beat Ninja Gaiden NES. I did use a save state on 7.1, because I believe the "start over at 6.2" is a glitch rather than intentional programming.
  3. Wow, Thank you so much for this. This plays like a dream.
  4. I just bought an Atari shirt and a Pitfall shirt at target two months ago. I got another shirt with an NES controller on it too. The a and b buttons are labeled in reverse. lol Space Invaders T-shirt at old navy too. STYLIN'
  5. Wow, really pleased. Fast shipping, great stuff!
  6. Ultimate SD cart. Shipped fast, good communication. Very Pleased!
  7. Fast shipping, good condition. Super pleased!
  8. Maybe it's just a mental hurdle to pass for people. I like modern games, and I like retro games mainly because there is still a vast library of games for retro systems that I haven't tried yet. I think it's narrow minded for anyone to paint themselves in a corner one way or the other. A lot of people only play modern games, when the next system comes out they haul in the old system to GameStop or wherever. It's the same mentality in reverse to only play games for 2600 or Action Max or only games produced until year "X" or after year "X". YouTube can only show you so much. Sound and video are a person's only perception of a game reviewed. TACTILE! Get your hands on the system or game and then make a decision. When SEGA was scrambling for games to push out on the Dreamcast, we got a lot of quirky stuff over here in the states. I had never seen an arcade style fishing game before, nor a simon says dance game, or played an NFL or football game (I used to think they were stupid), or a cell shaded game. The system almost forced you to take risks, and I think that shaped me personally in my attitude towards video games. I'm grateful for the education.
  9. I got a modded colecovision from yurkie and it is AWESOME! I am truly pleased with the outcome. : )
  10. Like they had been buried in a sandbox for ten years. XD
  11. I was helping the neighbors extend the concrete patio over where the sandbox used to be. While leveling out the sand with a metal rake, I found some of my old Star Wars figures. Snaggletooth and Death Star Droid. score!
  12. A lot of people play retro games for the nostalgia value alone. "those games are boring" I'm sure some people could look over my shoulder while I'm playing Nobunga's Ambition for the NES and say the same thing. "gaming didn't get good until Nintendo" wtf? no really WTF? Who says that? What sort of ignorant fan boy slob says that? "there is a reason the crash happened" Yes, multiple reasons, stop watching E.T. bashing videos on YouTube. "no one ever looked at an Atari game and thought the graphics were good" Boulderdash looks good. Pitfall looks good. River Raid looks good. By all means play Killzone 3 in 3D or God of War in 1080p. Graphics aren't everything. Gameplay is also important. Frogger has much better hit detection on the 2600 than on the Colecovision, the graphics on the CV look better, but when I want to play a home version, the 2600 will get popped in. Enjoy Midnight Magic, it looks like a lot of fun.
  13. Just go my YurkieVision in the mail over the weekend. OOOOOOhhhh Mr. Do!'s eyes change color. I can see that now thanks to the AV cord connection. Very impressed with the service offered!!!!
  14. Fifty Five THOUSAND dollars stupid. That was the price last paid for a VGA graded NES Castlevania a couple of months ago. I'd give a link, but he's made his eBay feedback private. I've sent action figures and transformers to AFA to get graded, which is the same company. It's an easier way to display stuff. Search "12 back AFA" or "Star Wars AFA 90" on eBay to see where it gets stupid. Graded video games are creeping up. Just give the hobby some time. The practice of encasing something in plastic and slapping a number grade on it is WORLDWIDE (not just American collectors), so I guess everybody's stupid. : P
  15. Galaxian BurgerTime I'll have to play on a Dreamcast emu. untill the real thing comes in the mail.
