Woah....a 51' TV?! That's 612 inches...Wow...Oh, maybe you meant 51". By the way, I got it playing on the projector. Tomorrow, I'm going to measure some nice figures for you to ponder. -------- Chase Hermsen

This could be pretty fun... Then we'd see "[email protected]@K! All 17 Variations of COBMAT! LWO RESREVE!!! BIN AT 159.99!!!111111oneoneoentwofive" on eBay, though....

I don't understand it either... $75 for 10 games? I got 34 commons, I believe, for $13.52 when I first got the ol' 2600 a few months ago. I guess I won't be buying any games for a month or so... ----------- Chase Hermsen

I usually play my 2600 on my infintessimally small 13 incher in my room...But I have a projector in my basement... So, I just went down there to try it...And it didn't work. I think I broke the projector.. Well, if I ever get it to work, chalk me up for a 84.5" TV. ---------- Chase Hermsen

Well, if that's $100... Why not just make yourself a portable one with Screen and battery for $110 ($80 if you already own an N64)...? http://saoghal.cywh.com/n64m_pictures/n64m.html ------------ Chase Hermsen

Another REALLY good remix is "Pearl Song", a remix from Super Mario 64. Great song to "chill out" to. And, of course, the classic "ROBOVoice" of FF7. In case you don't know, http://www.ocremix.org/ is the ultimate in VideoGame Remixes. Quite entertaining. --------- Chase Hermsen

Well, you have seven there already! 2 Ears, 2 Nostrils, 2 Eyes, Mouth ---------- Chase Hermsen

Nope, the first 'd' was definately capitalized. -------- Chase Hermsen

Yes, that annoys me. Me wantses to earnzy the pointses scorers!!!!! Now, off to be that 12500.... ------------ Chase Hermsen

Back on top for now, just got 10200. Grr...With one of my lives, I didn't earn ANY points, either...My hand slipped. Keep playing, guys! ------------ Chase Hermsen

I shall place my bid on thee, fair Mr. Do, and await your arrival in a polished rosewood box lined with the finest silk to be found in all of our dear country! ---------- Chase Hermsen Note: That was sarcasm.

I just found this game in my box o' games, so I tried it. 7000 points on the first try... No camera that I can locate. If I can find one, and someone isn't demolishing my score, I'll post one. Darn these jumpy joysticks... ---------- Chase Hermsen

I don't love the wires themselves...I was just trying to contribute to the feeling of the story by throwing in some synecdoche, ya know? I have discovered the secret! I will now make mods by dropping Ataris everywhere! Try it! Put the faker out of business! (Please don't listen to that... ) And, I just checked, and the DVD player has a slightly dented corner in the casing metal, but the plastic of the 2600 is fine! ------- Chase Hermsen

Old School vs. New School A boy was playing his Nintendo 64 late one Wednesday night in the month of November...A smile ran across his face as he watched the Jet Skiier in gracefully flip and handstand on his craft... The boy heard a sound come from his computer...It was a message, instantly sent over the wires connected to its rear...The boy thought "Ah, wires, how they help this world..."... But, the boy knew not what was to happen...For in his love for wires, these wires, much like the lives of his peers, became tangled. And when the boy walked to the computer, he heard a sound behind him. He looked, and saw that the wire that was on his green Nintendo 64 controller had intertwined itself with an audiovisual cable from his DVD player...He saw it tip off of the shelf, with his beloved Atari 2600 sitting atop, oblivious to the fate that lay 4 feet below... A face looked up from four feet below, with a distressed look...it was Sir Dudley Dashly, on a Jungle Hunt cartridge... He, along with 31 other friends, looked up and watched the DVD Player and VCS fall toward them...3 of their friends, Venture, Outlaw, and Atlantis coming down with them, waving at them....Then, contact. SMASH! Both DVD Player and 2600 hit the box of cartridges. They then slammed into each other, then fell to the ground, VCS on its back, DVD player hung by its own wires, cartridges scattered... The Nintendo 64 laughed, knowing it had crushed its two major foes, leaving only it and its younger brother NES, sitting there...smiling on the shelves....alone. Luckily, neither was hurt...I immediately tested my games, 2600, and DVD player...All worked perfectly...May not be a Big Sexy, but my black 2600 still has some armor to it apparently...Actually, the big guy would have probably dented my floor... The only noticable damage is that the Atari has better graphics now. No lie. Not a blip of static... Povlok1, I think you have a new mod to make.... Notice: No Ataris, Carts, or Jungle Hunters were hurt in the making of this story! ----------- Chase Hermsen

I don't have any of those...Darn my recreational playing... At least I have my Carnival... So, count me in! ------------- Chase Hermsen P.S. My cousin actually has PPII for his 7800, but I'll sell him another. He'll never know.

People should include copies of the pictures with the game! That way people can sort through the legacy by hand! Numbered and dated and...HEY! There's an idea! Along with the Numbered and Dated photos, you could have a cheap world map. On the map, you would draw "your number" on your location, and a line from the last point that it came from! Make it more interactive! Of course, there would be an online copy of this, too... This sounds awfully fun! --------- Chase Hermsen

Have fun with that! Reminds me of a box I ordered a few weeks ago, when I first got the 2600 working...I went online and saw a good 2600 package with 3 minutes left. Got in a bidding war with three others, and ended up with 34 games (I believe) for $13.52. All Rarities 1-3's, but that's fine with me. Still got some fun ones. Plus, they all worked! So, have fun playing your games! Long live eBay! ---------- Chase Hermsen

I have the perfect idea. Whoever can send you the most 8-10 rarity games wins....An E.T. Cart! Woohoo! Now if THAT's not the best, I don't know what is. :wink: ---------- Chase Hermsen

But, then you could call it a "mogri/mogry" or a "transmo"! ------- Chase Hermsen

Zzz... Supposed to be sleeping, but... Found this.... http://www2.egenet.com.tr/mastersj/difficu...mbiguities.html Shows that "Arabalari" means "the cars, her car, their car, or their cars", so, it is a racing game....Record of The Cars? I dunno...Tired.... -------- Chase Hermsen Zzz....

Hmm....I like the idea of a "middle ground". That way, people who have some ASM (Assembly) skill could add some features to a game, and be "judged" in their own class, keeping the spirits of the pure "hackers" up, and not hurting the Homebrewers, either. Plus, "hackbrew" is a brilliant term. I can see it now... -------- Chase Hermsen

Thanks everyone! This is Chase. That was a nice game indeed. Had a few close calls, as Ron most likely saw. I might go to beat my score in a few days, if I get the chance...Don't know if I will though. It's a toughie. Yes, I noticed this a lot. Usually, when I would play, I would be on the phone with my cousin, and make him count the "rollovers" as we talked. This particular occasion, however, I did not have the benefit of him being available. So, I got a pencil and paper, and made a "tally sheet" that I would mark between levels when I rolled it. Also, at the end, someone I knew was online cheering for me in an instant message, so between levels, whenever I broke a 25K, I'd update her. I achieved my three goals in the game, so I'm quite happy: 1) I got the world record. After that, I decided I would aim for (but didn't think I could) b: Reach 1 Million Points. Amazed, I made my last goal to IV. Double the current record. After that, I was basically free to play without "limitations", and...lost it. Oh well. Thanks again for the congratulations, and thanks to Ron for this post and for sitting through my boring video (about 90 minutes, I think?). -------------- Chase Hermsen
