    If I'd bought Trevor McFur off the shelf all those years ago I would have been pissed. I love shmups but that game just pisses me off. I might not have been super into Dino Dudes, but I think I would have taken the time to figure it out and enjoyed it in the end as something different, fun, and challenging. Cybermorph would have been frustrating maybe, but again, given a chance to spend time learning the nuances of the game I think I'd have liked it just fine. Would have loved Raiden back then, still love it now.

     

    And I think I screwed up my votes and put Dino Dudes first and Raiden third instead of the other way around. My bad.

    I have an Arkanoid arcade cocktail table. Don't play it much, but definitely a great game! However, my favorite ever rotary controller game is definitely Warlords, which I have the two player arcade console for as well as multiple 2600 copies of. If somebody made a Warlords 2000 cart with rotary controller capability, I'd be all over that in a hot minute!

    Price on Battlesphere just keeps climbing year after year! I'm tempted to let mine go for $650, but then what? Another year or three down the road and it'll be worth $900 or more? :lol:

    Could be! Of course, while the supply is low, it's doubtful demand will rise much given how niche an interest market the Jaguar is.

    Regular just went for $660..

    Seems to be creeping up to Gold territory these days (though I still think this is a bit much..)

    I had bid on that one, but I stopped at about $600. I might have been a bit more aggressive had I more money available, but was only gonna jump on it if I thought I could nab it for a relatively reasonable price. Almost never see them for sale these days.

    At least he's starting the bidding at a good price. That's less than what it cost me with shipping.

     

    On that note, #262 email received the other day, payment sent. Can't wait to get my copy!

    Another lovely podcast! Not looking forward to playing Kasumi Ninja for the next one, but I'll gut it out. Just got a rotary controller in the mail too, so maybe I'll add a snippet about playing T2K with it as well!

     

    Also, the name is "Galactus", not "Galacticus". lol

    I feel ashamed to admit I have yet to play Tempest with a rotary controller. My Vita Txk is the closest I've gotten lol.

    I just purchased a Pro Controller on Ebay 2 nights ago when my eBay alarm on my phone informed me of one just posted. I'm also ashamed to admit that I paid $130 for it, but as a hardcore Jag fanatic in mint condition as it is I didn't expect it to be any cheaper in the near future so I jumped on the buy it now at 4 a.m lol.

     

    I love tempest and certainly need to get a rotary jag controller next. Even though I'm used to the Jag pad, I don't feel like I'm getting the full experience. I remember the arcade version...aaahh the good old days when we had arcades =)

    $130 actually is a lot cheaper than I recall seeing them, though I may be remembering a CIB price. Want to get one of them, but have been focused on rounding out my game collection while they're still available.
