  1. another vote for the glue stick. I've had to use it on Apollo carts
  2. Aren't those sticks on the lower left for the Odyssey2? Any chance you are looking to get rid of those? What's the story on the black NES looking joypad on the lower right? I'm surprised no one else has mentioned that. Yes, they are O2 controllers, however in an effort to make my vintage controllers compatible I rewired them to be 2600 compatible, then made an adapter for them to plug into my O2. Now my O2 can work with O2 or 2600 controllers. As for the NES pad, I picked that as well as the dissected 7800 controller up from a flea market for a few bucks, to make a 7800 game pad. I didn't want to destroy my original 7800 sticks. Since, the grey color doesn't really match the 7800 I used some plastic/vinyl spray paint to make it black. I plan on printing some custom decals evantually... just haven't gotten around to it. Aw man, I totally didn't even think of making an adapter for the O2, that makes a whole lot more sense than rewiring a spare cx-40 for testing purposes. Thanks dude for the great idea...

  4. can we get details on how you wired it up and what size resister you used?
  5. yep, us lefties have learned to adapt well to the right handed environment. Sadly though my boy plays it right handed.
  6. Nice review, we should probably link to it when we post in other forums, one question though, is the stick you reviewed a proto or from production? The stick I reviewed was a proto. Curt has assured me the the production sticks will meet the same high quality. I will be shipping the proto back to Curt in about a week, so if anyone has any questions from a usage standpoint, I can try to answer them.
  7. if anyone is sitting on the fence trying to decide whether or not to order one, I highly recommend purchasing it... read my review here: http://www.retroblast.com/20081103717/Hard...-Controller.php
  8. you got it on the right channel? yeah I know kinda basic, but can be overlooked..
  9. I had a chance to test one of these joystick's for a Retroblast review. I am pleased to say these sticks are supurb. Read my review here: http://www.retroblast.com/20081103717/Hard...-Controller.php
  10. I bought a set from him six months ago or so, I was very happy with his service...
  11. if it was in the ornament forum, then I'd never have seen it... That's the one disadvantage to too many forums
  12. they have it on their site at $18.50 long link
  13. agreed, but still was kinda cool IMO none the less...

  15. quick question on these: What's the output DC voltage amperage and polarity on the power supplies?
  16. What browser are you using Ax? Is it possible you may have accidentally blocked all images from CTCW? If you are using FF check Tools --> Options --> Under content tab check to see if "Load images automatically" is checked, then click the exceptions button and make sure anything from CTCW isn't listed.. As for IE I'm sure there's something similar
  17. I got a cheaper shipping rate: $40.70 - 1 to 6 business days $107.03 - Guaranteed in 1-3 days (prices to NC) looks like i need 8 games out of that and there may be a label variant or 2 I don't have, and the 2 bookshelf cases would be nice to have, but I don't think it's worth $50.69 to me right now....
  18. Yes, but it usually takes eBay around 24 hours to remove an item so I doubt they'll get to it in time. Perhaps if more people report the item.. ..Al reported Ebay finally responded to the report I filed. Yeah I know it's too late now. I really hope it's a case that we jumped the gun and lemoncurry gets his Atlantis II
  19. the graphics shown on the box art are too well done... I could see those being NES or SNES, but not Atari
  20. Yes, but it usually takes eBay around 24 hours to remove an item so I doubt they'll get to it in time. Perhaps if more people report the item.. ..Al reported
  21. Ian, you are whining too much.. Did the guy pay timely? Then his job is done, leave the feedback... You would have neged him in a heartbeat had he not paid. Simple, guy pays, leave feedback, he gets item as described, he leaves feedback. Transaction done. Sellers should quit holding feedback hostage and expect positive feedback....
