    So subs have been able to buy some of these already? I guess this means a general release is coming soon? I'm wondering if there's going to be enough copies to go around. It sounds like this batch of releases is going to be very popular.

     

    It's safe to say that the 7800 titles are gonna be really HOT from the Subscribers Pre-Sale.

    Well that adds a lot to the conversation. ;-)

     

    You might want to try a front end like LaunchBox.

     

    I was commenting more to follow the subject. - But in the same breath Mame for arcade works fine for me but I have never been able to get any consoles integrated with it.

     

    I have tried LaunchBox and the Stella and ProSystem Cores don't run correctly for me. Way to Fast or Too Slow or glitchy. I would love to have an all in one solution, but I have resigned my self to running separate emulators

    which is probably the best way to do it and get the most accurate emulation but I love the idea of an AIO.

     

    Here I go again not adding anything to help. Just my sob story. ;)

    I *cannot* figure out how to get MAME to do consoles. How the heck does it work? I have the system ROM and everything.

     

    I tried to get it to do the 5200 and it just keeps saying a file's missing.

     

    I like Altirra; that worked no problem for me.

    It's a mystery to me. I have tried and failed multiple times.

    Damn right. Saw her in 1993 on the Gravity Rainbow tour and we were all shaking our heads.

    How a tiny women like that can have such a powerful vocal was something to behold.

    How she's not in the rock'n'roll hall of fame is criminal. Crazy how that works I guess.

     

    I saw her in 2015 when she opened for Rick Springfield for their 35 Anniversary Tour. Her set ROCKED. It was amazing how much energy she has for her age and her voice is still strong.

    Rick was a little weak. But it was cool because Pat'sh hubby Neil G came out and played on Jesse's girl because he played on the original version just before hey and Pat hit the big time.

    This video by Rush also has games in it....

     

     

     

    One of the best songs ever and the video totally rules.

     

    Tempest - Probably one of my all time favorites!

     

     

     

    Saw them in 2015 - R40 - Amazing retrospective show.

    It didn't look like there was a CRT in it...

     

    I thought the same thing. It didn't look like there was a monitor in the cab. And like was mentioned above is it not a legit Williams cab anyway. Unless the U.K. got some other type of cab that I can't find any pictures of in a google image search.

    Nobody cares that Choplifter is messed up on many systems?

     

    I don't care. I don't have it now. If I really wanted to play it I could go pick up a used one for cheap at a number of local shops for cheap. But I have not heard great things about it so I am in no hurry.

    I loved it on my Apple ][ but I hear that Atari didn't do the best they could with it back then.

     

    BTW Happy Birthday CPUWIZ. I hope things are going better for you.

    Great. I received mine this week. I am glad more people are gonna get them.

     

    How about a re-run of the first one? A reach I know. Just asking.

    I don't know about the 1st one yet. We just want to get #2's to everyone if possible. We can talk about #1 after that.

     

     

     

    Thanks tep392. I was just throwing it out there as I was not "in the scene" when it was offered originally. But this current cart offering is great. There are enough hard find games on this to make it a must have.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    :lol: :lol: :lol:

     

    That said, I have most of those but not all. It'd be nice if #1 could see another run at some point, in the absence of Concerto and to save wear and tear on the cart connectors on our daily drivers. :)

     

     

    I'd be in for Cart #1 as well :)

     

     

    Let's just remember that I was the FIRST one who asked about a Re-Run of Volume 1. I want the first one if there is a Re-Run of the first volume.

    ;)

    Great controller... Says needs a battery and rear slides off, I don't see this though? Is it a misprint on the box? or am I missing something

     

    I think you just unscrew the 4 screws and remove the cover to insert the battery. From my understanding you only need a battery if you want to use the rapid fire option.

    I haven't tried that with mine yet. I just did a quick test with mine on SPACE ROCKS.

    Just wanted to circle back on this. The replacement case, utilizing your scans, came out great! The eBay seller that made the case was aaronskywalker. Highly recommend his work. I am getting zero kickback on this, I promise. Very pleasant transaction.

     

    Let me know if you or anyone else has interest in seeing pics of the final product, as I would be happy to snap a few and post them here.

     

    Thanks, again, groundtrooper!

     

    I would like to see pics please. Glad I could help.
