  1. Forgot to say thank you all for the replies!!!
  2. The box for my Arcadia Supercharger was recently crushed by one of my kids. A total mistake so I cannot get angry. Bummed yes.. Angry no.. Luckily it was just the box. The Supercharger, booklet, and the cassette are all in great shape. Does anyone make a repro box for it? I don't mind having the Starpath version. But the Arcadia version would be ideal. I can wish can't I?
  3. Hi all, One of wants in life would be to have a portable 3DO. None of the people on youtube ever test the 3DO when checking out systems. Yesterday I saw a video on the state of 2DSxl homebrew/emulation. They call it a beast. It runs a lot of stuff, including N64. When seeing the list of Retroarch cores in the video, at the bottom of the list was 3DO.. I kept watching the video hoping that I'd see something. Needless to say. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Bummer. My question is simple - Has anyone tried running Retroarch and a 3DO core on the 2DSXL? Alternatively, are there any good handhelds out there that can run 3DO smoothly?
  4. Hey All, Were there ever any OST's made for 3DO games? I pulled the audio from my PC version of Killing Time at one point. (Toot Suite I believe was the band) Road Rash had the OST CD. But that is about it that I can remember. There is some great music my trusty old 3DO, I'd love to hear it again. Not just while playing the games.
  5. Just re-found this game and tried to play it. My Windows 10 i7 with Nvidia card doesn't seem to like it. It is VERY choppy. I know it's a long shot as this is semi obscure. It's been years since I've tried to play it. I remember it being a little slow. But not like this. Any hints?
  6. He was focused on consoles so I stuck with that. You are correct in there were others on computers before. If we were going down that rabbit hole as far as he mentioned in on UseNet therfore he was first, I believe that the The Atari Cx240? Music Machine predates all and was released in 1976 or 1977. Maybe his original inspiration? I played with one. It's amazing for it's time. Think 2600 graphics that react to your music. It was a box with dials and buttons. I'm sure that there is something on youtube or wiki. And I'm sure people hooked up oscilloscopes to watch music as well. I had a stupid laser light show thing in the mid 80's that projected on the wall about the same time. I played everything through that to make a "laser show" Please don't think I am taking away his work. OMG. He is amazing. I played Space Giraffe a few days ago. I currently own several machines JUST for his work. Sadly no Jag CD. Someday!
  7. While I do think that the Jag CD had a better visualizer. The Nuon a few years latter was even better. The XBOX 360 was amazing. All done by Jeff Minter. (Mr. Tempest 2000,3000,4000, and Txk). They are the best viualizers. I miss them being built into the systems. It would be nice to see something in the new machines coming out. even if it were for streaming or mp3... But the title of first would have to go to the 3DO. The Jag CD was announced a month or so before the Jag came out. (November 1993). The 3DO was already on the shelves having come out in October. The Jag CD came around 1.5 to 2 years after. If anything, the people at Atari saw the visualizer and said.. Hey we can do better. And they did!!!
  8. Hi all, About the time the Virtual Boy was coming to market. I remember seeing an ad for a new Full Color 3D "Virtual Reality" system. One Ad. That was it. It didn't show any screenshots. But If I recall, it said that it was 32-bit. Full color. Cartridge based. Fully self contained. For the life of me I cannot remember the name of it. I can't find the ad or the scan I did of it. -Sad-. This was obviously years ago. If I recall correctly the controls were sort of attached to the screen. Think of the Virtual Boy with a controller on either side. You hold it up to your face. I don't remember seeing straps. No screenshots of games. This was not the various R-Zone - type devices. Does anyone else remember this?
  9. Keep these coming. I thought I was the only one who still loved my 3do!!!
  10. Found this list of games that will supposedly be on the system: I'm hoping Star Raiders will utilize the touch screen for the keypad. PSSSSST Atari Age - 5200 tempest and Adventure II would be WONDERFUL addition to this package..
  11. Hi all, I have the original Battlesphere. Complete. In box... I think my original receipt is still in the box. Everything clean. I just have to start trimming down my Vintage game collection.. CD-i CD-32 7800 2600 No video Vectrex... sound works fine. (My very first internet purchase ever back when I had a 14.4 modem). Neo Geo... All will be going as well. (And a ton of games for each). When the wife says it's gotta go.. Figured I'd start off with this... I've heard a wide range of prices.. I'd love to get a good price for it.. But Just as important.. I want someone to have a good home.. Let me know if anyone is interested. Thanks!
  12. I'm trying to get rid of a few other things first.. If I can't get what I need... Then BS goes up on the auction block. Hate to do it. But for some reason, my kiddo comes first. I'll keep u all posted. Thanks for all the kind words... Both publically and privately
  13. Thanks all for the info.. Been a bit busy so I haven't been back on the forum... I'm still toying with the idea. I'll let y'all know when I decide.. And so that everyone knows, It's Battlesphere "classic".
  14. Hey All, It's been ages since I've posted anything.. I don't even remember what my last posting was about... Circumstances and my child's teeth may require me to sell off my Battlesphere cart. I love the game.. But my little dude comes first. Sooo I wanted to acution it off. The game plays great. The cart/box is in fantastic shape. Will provide pics of everything if needed. The last thing I want to do is turn to ebay. I'd prefer to send it to a great home. So I came here. (My favorite Atari site). I've visit often. But haven't been in the forums in a while. Before actually starting the auction, I wanted to make sure that I'm following all the rules of the forum. Let me know what I should and shouldn't do. (Didn't see anything re: rules). Thanks!!! Steve
  15. Hey all, So last week about this time, I told the wife that I was goin to the bank and get some cash for CGE. I was sooo excited that it was in my neighborhood. I saved a ton of cash. Hoping for a few things. Mostly, I wanted the USB joystick adapter from AtariAge. Get a couple of games from the AA store. Pick up the retroradio archive DVD. The Howard Scott Warshaw video. Hopefully replace my 3do. Maybe pick up an 5200. Maybe an Astrocade. Some new carts that I might see. After walking up and down the room several times, I saw no sign of AA there. Bummer. The one 3do unit at the show was gone. Bummer. Couldn't bring myself to purchase the games from the place that was selling Skelton + and such. Bummer. Wanted to pay for the DVD of the CGE while I was there. Couldn't. Bummer. On the bright side, I did pick up the retroradio DVD. Once Apon Atari. Had a great conversation with Howard Scott Warshaw. Laughed when David Crane and two of the other Activision guys walked up to one of the boothes and the person talking to them had ZERO clue. Enjoyed the Museum. Watched Shane Monroe interview someone. Never got a chance to say "hola" to him. Enjoyed seeing the xgamestation. picked up some other stuff. I didn't want to be a total dork and bring my digital camera, little did I know that I would have been in some good company. Especially in the museum. I come back and decide to search these forums to find out why AA wasn't around. I read that there is a "rift" between some people. Instead of trolling the forums and search out why, I figured I'd just plain ask all the staff at Atari Age: Any chance of being there next year? Whatever happened between all of you, please toss it aside. I would love to see you there. Settle the differences. Steve
