  1. New arrivals today: The zelda carts are really clean, but the first zelda cart has a pawnshop sticker right on the back official one... Seems really well glued there and I don't want to damage it, so I guess it'll stay there.
  2. Bought today (JJGames): NES: Dragon Warrior Tetris SNES: Street Fighters II GENESIS: Sonic the Hedgehog Battle Squadron All are carts only, but with good label and minimal wear on case. PS2: FInal Fantasy X (black label) CiB
  3. Will ship tomorrow. Send me your info please.
  4. You get a time travelling machine if you hook it up to some flux capacitor and 10 gigawatt of electricity!
  5. Matching looks to the nes? But I would prefer modding a Nintendo controller instead as so to have the turbo and slow functions.
  6. Would be perfect if it had the turbo and slow button too...
  7. Add $20 and I'll include a 5.25" floppy drive in the deal.
  8. Don't know, it's brand new and I never used it! You may want to check on their forum for this info.
  9. For sale price: $250Cad shipped (canada/usa) Included are: * Atari 520STE Pal with 4megs of ram and new CenturionTech US compatible PSU installed. * UltraSatan HDD emulator (new never used) and a SatanDisk (used) * Two original Atari mouses * 3 new/sealed boxed games (Wreckers, Alien World, Chronicles of Omega) * 2 used boxed games (Tempest, Super Sace Invaders / Pit-Fighter) * Atari->RGB cable (can be used with an Amiga 1080 or 1084 monitor with gender changer) * boxed copy of Degas Elite. * Pete Putnik HDD driver with companions files and utility for the UltraSatan * 2x blank 4gb CF card. Looking to trade for one of the following: * Atari 2600 + games * Atari 7800 + games (at least one 7800 in the lot to try) * Colecovision + games * Sega Master System + games (no need for the gun or glass) * Gamecube + games * Wii + games System and controllers must be clean and working. Games can be carts only and for the Ataris and Coleco I understand that label can be bad or damaged. The SMS label must be good. Disc based game must include case and both it and the disc be in good condition. Number of games must be reasonable for the value of the system. PSUs must also be included (can be a modern compatible replacement). Feel free to ask questions. Reasonable offers will be accepted. As always I'll pay shipping both way in case of a trade!
  10. Most people don't even notice you are there or they're to busy doing things they enjoy to laugh at you. You see yourself as a 1% of 1% because you feel the need to belong to a group, to give a meaning to your gaming hobby. This is silly. You're an individual, not a part of something. You've full control on what you do with your free time and money. People collect many things, stamps, money, cars... It's nobodies business but for the one doing it. Damn this site can be a downer sometime. People come here to discuss our hobby of retro gaming while some seems to be here only to bitch about it and say it's stupid. Maybe it's not the hobby that's stupid but you that's ready to move on to something else. If that's the case then the honorable thing to do is to leave it behind and not dump on those enjoying themselves.
  11. I've been working in tech support for the last 20 years. I've seen my shares of dumb people, but I've also seen just as many who could perform complex task after some simple explications... The difference is that in those 20 years I've learned to not sell people short, unlike some here do.
  12. And it's also a bit ironic of seeing people getting frustrated by people downloading and using roms on a site where many advertise and use product that helps emulation or the use of roms like the everdrives, the finalgrom, the sio2pc and other gadget that let people use dowloaded roms with retro hardware. Hell, some here outright advocate for the use of emulators only instead of relying on old hardware that could fail... Maybe some of the complainers here even... And the hypocrisy is even worst for those who used 8 and 16 bits computers. Those platformed lived and died with piracy. You bought the one you had access to the most free stuff around you. Stones, glass houses...
  13. Come on... Get real. Stop judging people tech affinity at large by your limited personal experiences. People who want to use emulators will find a way to use them. They're not as complicated to use as they were years ago. Yes we're nerds, but we're not that special. Some emulators are damn easy to setup and use, especially for the older system.
  14. Why not mod it? It's one chip and a crystal I think, plus a jumper.
  15. What prowess? you only have to follow one of the many tutorials on youtube or elsewhere. And the cartridge system are a couple of megs worth at most, not 138gb...
  16. My CRT are: * Ascent 23" TV (component, svideo, composite, rf) - Last CRT sold at Zellers in 2005. * Amiga 1080 * Commodore 1702 in dire need of a recap job. I have the kit, the tools, but not the guts to put my hand inside of it and risk electrocuting myself. The Ascent is perfect for the NES, SNES, Sega, TG16 and PS1 and PS2. Not compatible with lightguns, but I fall back to the 1080/1702 for those. I should receive the NES, SNES. And PS2 next week. For now I have my mod1 genesis to play with. I would've waited for winter before getting back in console gaming, but I'm really disapointed with the new Wow expansion and need something else to keep me occupied.
  17. You're really struggling when someone as a different point of view then yours or when you don't get your way. Again, what is it to you if people want to boycott something. Do you own stock in Nintendo? And there is no "us". The only person being triggered by an action that you have no interest in taking part in is you, just you...
  18. For someone who doesn't care you do protest much. If you don't care about it don't participate in it! People will do whatever they want irrespective of your feeling about it, so grow up a bit. And my condescending Wonka was in response to your passive-agressive schtick that is borderline flamebaiting most of the time.
  19. If many people do, then yes Nintendo will see a drop in sales. But then again, what is it to you that some people may boycott Nintendo? Do people have to ask you permission or something? Tell me how you really feel about this, I'm all hears. ..
