Cobra Commander

I have about 65 unique titles, and like 20 dupes. About 15 from back in the day, 20 or so found in the wild, and the rest are from systems won in auctions. All told a fairly modest collection. I imagine someone has a smaller collection.

Looks pretty grim, guess I'll have to hit the bookstore and decide for myself. thanks.

Sawdust. Its out in the garage, I freakin' hate the toaster style NES. This is the worst design for cartridge insertion. I am curently playing on a "YOBO" famiclone, wich loads from the top.

I used to get for free with my EB "Frequent Sucker" card, but they wanted me to start paying for it so I said forget it. I liked it OK enough, it was the only way I could keep up with new stuff coming out. I might get a subscription to something else now though. Any recomendations for subscriptions?

Its not the system that I'll shop for, its the games. Console features havent been a big selling point for me, its always been the games. I'll wait around for a year or two until something really cool comes out, and that will be a selling point for me.

I've got balls like that but there blue.

I saw a tetris hand-held in wal-mart after christmas for $20. It was pretty cool it had a big screen (approx 2"x4") and worked pretty good through the holes in the package. I dont really have time for hand-helds though, meaby if I had a long bus/train commute.

Any indication why? Are they doing this for everyone who calls or just special cases? Cause there aint no money in hardware. If your hardware dont work then you cant buy new software, wich is were the real money is. And there just keeping you happy wich is really cool. Couple that with free online play (mostly) and they will keep me as a customer.

I love to blow stuff up, and blow it up again. I love the ad too. I'm a little broke now so I'll have to wait a little while for this one. Butt I'll be waiting for your critiques. Meaby I'll start renting games.

Thats the spirit, I dont care who made the piece of crap, or if you gotta blow, fart, rub your belly, and pray to make the games work. I've tried new connectors (Just a bandaid for festering craphole wound). Fact is they suck. I dont have any other systems that I dont have to do anything more thant clean/swab the media, and simply dust out the inside of occasionaly if it has a fan.

I rarely actually finish a game, I dont know why (A Freaudian yould love this shit) Alot of the time I'll get to the last item, boss fight, whatever, and put it down for a while. More like forever, or I'll see someone finish the game. Then its like "I already know what happens, so oh well...". Games like Tomb Raider, Resident Evil, FF7, and The Getaway, but I'll finish GTA games, and Tom Clancy games. Then theres the ones like True Crime and ManHunt, that I only play a few levels of.

At least you have a club in your town. I dont know of one here, and dont have time to start one. Enjoy.

Hit it with a hammer, or put fire crackers in it. I hate those freakin' things. Just got a "YOBO" famiclone 2 weeks ago and love it.

I play alot of "Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm", usualy on CO-OP, or Solo-Sharpshooter. I havent played GR2, however all the people I play online with say it sucks and are still playing Jungle Storm.

I got mine at a local game store that sells all the old shit(way over priced) as well as the new stuff. I didnt ask where they got them. It was $53 after tax (7% in FL). I saw them on Ebay later that day, didnt look real hard at prices and shipping charges. I think I typed in "FC" to find them in video games. [/img]

I've drug some cool stuff out of a pawn shop in my town, mostly genesis about $1 to $3, some NES, SNES and Dreamcast stuff for realy good deals. I've only seen 2 VCS carts, and the other pawns dont carry anything older than PS1.

I baught one of these today, after getting fed up with my piece of shit toaster style. Only been playing tetris for and hour and havent tried any other games yet. this thing is tiny about the size of a Genny 3, and only weighs about the same as a NES cart. The controllers are tiny but more comfy than NES IMO. The power light lights-up blue (kinda cool). It does have an adaptor from FC-NES. The video image seems good, mono sound (normal), composite AV only, & I'll have to think up something for the gun hook-up. I'll try some more games, and post some pics later or tomorrow. I think these are made for developing markets, and third world countries. Or just something to sell to those americans who will buy anything.

Some of the garages are large enough to fit 2 cars and a bike, however I've gotten them stuck where I couldnt get the door open for a while. I was thinking the other day of a wepon they should have included, "Yard Darts", and the vehicle I would also like to see would be a "Pogo Stick".

I got 2 of those SEGA handhelds fron McDonalds, kinda cool. But with my $40 EB giftcard and $9 trade-in credit I got. Katamari Damacy for PS2 (future classic) Ren&Stimpy For Genesis (used, loose cart) SEGA "Figter Stick SG-6" joystick (used) Legend Of Zelda for NES (used, loose cart) Zelda II for NES (used, with manual) and Smash TV for NES (used, with sleeve)

I just have the MS works spreadsheet that came with XP home, for my meger collections, but it does make it easier to keep track of things. I'll have to check out Acess. I enjoy making list and DB's of various things for some reason Havent made my people to kill list though

I got one recently got one of these and it didnt work right of the bat, I had to push the upper pins down to get them to contact properly, no biggie. The seller I got from on Ebay (Callisto or game source or something like that) sent me the wrong item at first a nintendo AV cord, wich I needed anyway, so they just gave it to me for free. Then I had to call back 2 more times to get them to send me the right item, when I got it finaly it was an after market controller, I was a bout to call a bitch, then decided open the box and there it was inside next to the controller. So I got 2 free items and left neutral feedback. I did look at their feedback and they were super busy, with a few negs out of 1000's, some similar to my situation, wrong item, made it up with free item, and so on. There's a NES site I found through DP I think that tells you how to rig up an old connector to work, wich I've tried with moderate success. You just pushbend the pins back into place, try this with an old one while you wait for the new one to arive. I got mine to work as long as I didnt want to change games alot.

Thanks for the tip.

I agree, I've almost broke my wrist playing this with a joystick. Crappy game, fun to play

PAC-MAN!!!!!!! Any system, any Version, arcade, console, dosent matter. What a lame ass game. The be-all end-all of overrated games. Nuf Said. Meaby cause I suck at it, though I still play it now and again.

Picked this up friday at EB with a gift card, How did I overlook this one? I think its cause my game mag subscription ran up. What a great game, its a bit of a throwback, not in concept or graphics but in game play, simple to play, challenging and fun even if you dont win. And what a bargain.
