  1. I would have been absolutely furious had I somehow scraped together the money for a Falcon the first time I saw it, to only then find out that Atari had shoved it out the door just as they were dropping stone dead... 😄
  2. After doing the same to my CDX, I've opened up the Saturn and ensured I never accidentally lose a save to a dead battery again 😄 (FRAM Mod)
  3. Though trying to work around having less than steady hands can be an issue, you definitely don't need an expensive iron. Though I have a KSGER set, I do most of my work (including all the work shown on the Game Gear here) with my handy little Pinecil. https://pine64.com/product/pinecil-smart-mini-portable-soldering-iron/
  4. Thanks for pointing that out. I did put some kapton on the ribbon locations for those reasons, but it'll be something I keep in mind if I turn it on and suddenly its not working : ) The new screen has definitely piqued my interest in a system that I've largely overlooked in the past. I've been enjoying some great games from its library and some surprises like finding out the system has a Rouguelike in Dragon Crystal.
  5. On the advent of 386/VGA/Soundblaster - the PC was no longer a gaming joke and that was the death bell for the STs, and that's when I jumped ship.
  6. The amount of support that NMS has received is simply stunning. Things should generally be more like this, but they never are.
  7. STRam works well (I installed one in my 520ST) but it is the direct opposite of easy and plug and play.
  8. Returning to the The Little Genesis That Could and modifying it for Maximum SEGA POWER 🙂
  9. Uhh... good luck with that on a system with a cheap low power SOC, and without Windows...
  10. Does SainT need to issue an advisory like Valve? 😄
  11. Yeah it makes a huge difference. I've had this screen sitting on the shelf for a while and should have done it sooner : ) The flex cable makes it so much nicer to install.
  12. I've recapped both my Game Gears and installed a new IPS screen on one of them so I've been focusing a bit on the system lately. Among things I've been playing, Devilish (which is neat and I've never played before at all), Robocop vs Terminator (which is excellent), Shinobi, and GG Aleste 3 (which I didn't know existed and is stunning)
  13. So after doing a recap and the FRAM mod on my CDX as well, I also had to access the memory manager and memory (ha) served me saying hold down C while booting a CD game. Which worked, and also works with a six button Retro-bit wired controller.
  14. Breathing - who here thinks this is a good idea or is it overhyped? Do you prefer it? Is it really better than not breathing? Anyone notice how important it is? Here's my proof, but trying to convince people about this is like a brick wall! I know I just did for the first time, but people please stop replying in a sensible manner to these stupid topics.
