  1. Played my Playstation 1 last night for the first time in ages.  I like it, but I wish I had a better library.  Many of the games I have I'm not really in the mood for.  Played a bit of Strikers 1945 before bed.  I keep hoping to find cheap lots of PS1 games at yard sales, but it hasn't happened in 10 years.

  2. Some fool is setting off fireworks at almost 11:00PM.  I'm happy to put up with that on the 4th, but why on this random day and why at this hour???

  3. I took the plunge!  Bought a used black Wii U (32Gb) @ the pawn shop today!  It came with one gamepad, but no charging cradle/AC for the pad,  so I ordered one off eBay.  Now I need to charge the pad, then get through to a human on Nintendo's Customer Service to reset the Password (which can be done if the pawn shop guy's right).  System's a little scuffed, the gamepad looks Great though, aside from 1 scuff on a trigger, everything else buffed out with some elbow grease.   Any game recommendations?

  4. Bought 2 Laserdiscs and a Turbografx game today.  Definitely living like its 1990.  (No Way Out (1987), Hocus Pocus (1993), Vigilante Hucard)

  6. The collecting world has gone mad with this COVID stuff. Everything's jumped up in price, even Wii U systems. $150 at a bare minimum if you want one with a controller, and that's in poor condition. WTF?!

  7. Stargate...incredible game for the Atari 2600!

  9. Taco Bell's sauces are Good.   Taco John's are Better.  Del Taco's are the Best!

  10. Just heard a commercial on the radio for a mini golf place called Ninja Golf!

  11. *Phew* What a relief. Sony will not be buying SNK. #23,036 has the video to find out more. on the Neo-Geo thread.   https://atariage.com/forums/topic/223548-the-official-neo-geo-thread/page/922/#comments

     

  12. Watching Krull for the first time in about 30 years.  It's way worse than I remember it being. A *bit* surprising, since I still enjoy a lot of 70s and 80s fantasy/sci-fi, even cheesy, low-budget stuff.  Sometimes that's half hte fun. Maybe my expectations were too high.

  13. I told the operations manager at work to tell people that this coming Friday would not be a day off from work, because the 4th of July was cancelled due to coronavirus. He thought it was humorous but won't pull that prank.

  14. You know what I find fascinating? Houses made out of shipping containers. I really like them and wouldn't mind investing into one for living in.  maxresdefault.jpg

  15. Kids didn't rewind tape movies after watching them in 90s, but now I want kids to recharge cellphones before returning them after watching movies. 😂😂😂

      I didn't have any way to play Duke when it first came out, no PC at home. But I seem to remember the time period, and this was when there were a rash of goofy FPS released on computer, like Redneck Rampage, Postal...and just other silliness.

      The only one I've ever played is the N64 version (not Zero Hour), and I can make it a few levels, but the controls are just not intuitive on that version. Would have loved a Jaguar version though with Doom controls! IIRC Duke can look up and down right? I think that's one of the roadblocks for smooth gameplay with the N64 pad.

  18. Anyone know the paper stock/weight used for Atari 2600 boxes?

  19. 3 huge crows outside, about 10 inches long. big birds

  20. I think I cracked The Code!!  AFTER you create an account on Amazon.JP (Amazon Japan) THEN you can select Change Country/Region (under Language) to switch from your U.S. account to your Japanese account.  I know that people on here were to trying to explain that to us, us boneheads haha (For Example, in the Turbografx thread), but without a second account, that option will not appear (As I understand it).  Anyway I got my TURBOGRAFX MINI Ordered!!   WOOOHOOO!
