All it did to me was make me install Microsoft BoB on the cat.

Yeah,  Too bad one of the side effects isn't suddenly having more money haha...I'm so far behind (with car repair bills and such) that I really have to watch my spending...Liking the upcoming Evercade VS though.  Probably have to buy one of those when they come out

I suspect that every game.com on the planet is gonna be dead from screen rot in the next ten years. I doubt anybody is going to ride to the rescue with replacement screens for that platform...

I have a complete game.com collection including Wheel of Fortune 2. It's sad that nobody wants to make a homebrew for it. Even a simple "Hello World" would be welcome.

Unfortunately the screens are dying and there’s no way to stop it. There isn’t a single unit on eBay right now with a non-rotted screen except maybe the new in box ones and I’m not sure about those. I think the number of interested people is much smaller than even the Microvision, and the replacement screens would be far more complicated than the Microvision’s. So all of that, plus the lack of any real documentation or resources for working with it, really takes away peoples’ desire to develop for it. I’m glad it has been emulated.

I was always excessively partial to Tiger - a video game hardware company based in the Great Lakes! But like so many other once-great things that started in the Great Lakes - Sears, Kmart, Marshall Field’s, Hudson’s, shopping malls, American manufacturing, economic mobility - it didn’t last.

Oh well.  We'll see what happens tomorrow.

Are the regular versions limited edition? I don't care when I get it or if I get a fancy version, but it looks like a really great game.

Everything is a limited edition haaa!  Myself,  even though I'd like a digital copy,  I think I'm just gonna go regular edition.  I'd like to see that cool green box in the collection and money is very tight anyway...My latest car repair is $2400+!!

As Radio Shack came out of Texas, I wouldn't be surprised if some of those stores stayed good till the end. Some stores near me that had been in it for the long haul were still good, but only a handful. Most here in Michigan were glorified Sprint stores that had a dusty cabinet of components and two crappy soldering irons stuck in a back corner. The employees had never soldered anything in their lives.

Last radio shack store I went to was a small room in an Ace Hardware store. 

The one in our old mall, North Shore Square, was pretty decent compared to the one near I-10.
