    I just finished Professor Layton and The Azran Legacy 3DS the best ending to any Prof. Layton game period. So many twists and turns I still can't believe it.

      That's such a great series.  Even the crossover with Ace Attorney managed to be something unique and special.

    A while back a friend gave me an Atari 800XL in perfect condition. Finally got a power supply and AV cable turns out it doesn't turn on. Tried a trick someone suggested still doesn't work. I have a PC tech friend who is going to see if it has bad caps.

      @Classic Pac: when you say it doesn't turn on, if you leave it powered up for ten or fifteen minutes, do any of the ICs or other components get warm?

      I'll check it out thanks

    Got a couple of games for free, been thinking about making them available in the Free Games. Frankly it doesn't make any sense to charge for these games that are worth $10 or less.

    Got some good news yesterday, a friend thinks they know what is wrong with my PS3 and best of all they know how to fix it, which they agreed to do.

      Or...Ya could give me the Motherboard to fix one of mine... :)

    Had a weird little problem when trying to join AtariAge on Discord. It says I am a member but I can't access their Discord channel on Discord software. Now what?

    Had an expert look at my PS Vita after it got water damaged, their verdict... It's toast and I should think about getting a new one.?

      THAT sucks...

      Did you leave the Vita for a week or so before turning it on again after it got damaged?  I've heard that the real killer from water damage is shorts on the motherboard from not letting it dry out properly.

       

      I'm sorry that's not much help to you now (if it could have even helped at all) but hopefully you'll be able to get another one.  The Vita is a system I've been interested in but I wonder how much of a future it has once Sony drops online support for it.

    I decided even when there is a vaccine available for Covid, and I do get it. I am still wearing my mask

      I've decided that as well. When you think about it, shouldn't we always have been wearing masks in crowds, during holiday shopping-season, in doctor offices, etc., just to avoid influenza and regular respiratory infections? Not in a mandatory sense pre-pandemic, but I'm surprised the use of masks wasn't simply a recommended tip for daily life. I'm also considering a face shield at this point, too...

    I got a Spam this morning from now get this KILL INC with the subject line "How Much is Your Data Worth". I deleted it ASAP, who knows it could have been ransomware.

    I have been watching Double Dare season 1 on Paramount Plus and was delighted to find out that the very 1st prize in the Prize Run at the end of the episode was an Atari 7800

      Double Dare from Nickelodeon with Mark Simmers? Loved that show!

      Double Dare would not be Double Dare without Marc Summers

      Just looked him up; apparently he's alive and well (relatively).   I really need to revisit that show; thanks for bringing it up!

      If you are coming in via BWI, this is really close. Lots of old arcade games. http://www.crab-towne.com

    I own a Gameshark Update disc. How rare are these? The only one 1 know of is the one I own.

    It's really getting to a point where I can't even stand watching the news without feeling like throwing something at my TV

      Anyone that "watches" their news isn't getting facts.

      The only news I've been watching is the local news reports for about the first 15 minutes, just to see if there are issues with closures, etc.

      I've been reading a fair bit of news online, but as Joe writes above you really need to shop around different sources and not expect any one of them to be reliable.

      Reading is the way to go, different sources as well.

    My PC Tech friend has got around to try and fix my Atari 800XL. He found 3 bad caps so far.

    1. SoundGammon

      Can you post what caps he changed for future reference?

       

      Thanks, Rob

      Is it the BC 60GB PS3? CHECHA01?

    Playing my 1st Ace Attorney game, Justice for All. Fun game, that has it's own unique pattern.

    So far I have ran into 5 made for PSP games that could easily be mobile games

    So far I know of 3 nude figure mods for 3 games. This pandemic needs to end soon.

      Oh, nude Tic-Tac-Toe. Somehow I can see there is a market for that.

    So far the PCs in the Veteran's Computer Lab at the VA hospital in Chicago have had no internet access for over a month. 3 PCs of the 13 have been in a non working state for now get this 5 months. I beg you to contact your elected official to get this problem finally fixed.

  25. Classic Pac

    That is so cool that a previous unreleased Xbox game is now available
