  1. Well Travi arrived today and I also got my 128 in 1 5200 flash cart today. Travi was a little jealous cause I was spending so much time with the flash cart. Then I told him that Flash wasn't going to leave the house and he was going to see the sites of southwestern Missouri.

     

     

    He felt a little better after that then we had a beer. He was parched after his long trip.

    Then we played with the 5200 multi cart. Can you guess which game we played?

    Travi will be on his way in a couple of weeks more pics to come.


  2. fantastic deal edwierd theres a Gc @ my goodwill for 30 bucks

    those gc games u got are gr8 even better mario 64

    that 1 alone is worth over 20 bucks buddy :)

    Yeah when my wife showed me the 64 game I said get it. I have been looking for it and dont want to pay the outrageous prices that the want at the used game stores.


  3. Well I got the Trak-Ball working right. I love playing Missile Command with it.

    But the 4-port looks like it needs the 4052's replaced. I tried adjusting the pot on the system with no luck. I had had to replace the 4052's on my 2-port and I have a couple of extra chips laying around.


  4. I found a 4-port at a yard sale with the switch box, power supply, 2 controllers, and 7 games for $10. The system works the only problem is player sprite moves constantly to the right no matter what controller is plugged in. I thin I read somewhere that this can be fixed by a pot adjustment inside the system. The controllers are crap of course the fire buttons dont work but that can be fixed. Tried the system with one of my good controllers and it moves constantly to the right but the fire buttons work.

    The games are

    Super Breakout

    Pac Man

    Defender

    Pole Position

    Missile Command

    Galaxian

    Centipede

    All of the with their overlays.

     

    Also found a Trak-Ball at another sale for $1 the only problem is the fire buttons dont work. Are these like the standard controller buttons?

    Can the be fixed the same way?

     

    All in all it was a great start to my weekend

     

    :D :D :D


  5. I like that controller/joystick. That's what the retro joystick for the 360 (should) have been (madcatz = fail). It'd be nice to see this move to the 360 somehow to use with some of the arcade games.

    I agree the madcatz arcade joystick is horrible dont buy it. If I had wanted a analog joystick I would have stuck with the 360 controller.


  6. Yes indeed, the Wii is now sitting in its top-secret hiding place at the house. I'm amazed the kids haven't found this spot yet! Picked up Wii Play as well for the extra controller, and might pick up another game or two. I think my wife might have taken my hint about Trauma Center, which looks like a very cool game to play! And there is a Psyclone brand Wii starter kit for about $50 which seems to be a good deal, especially as it has the component cables included.

    The kids found our super secret hiding place :x .

    Kind of takes the fun out of suprising them with a Wii. GRRR
