I'll give you $50 for the lot.

Is the -bit argument defunct now?
jesusc replied to thomasholzer's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Why is this a prerequisite for having an opinion? I've never driven a ferrari, yet i am of the opinion that it is fast. I've never dropped acid, yet I'm of the opinion it messes up your perception. I've never been in space, yet I'm of the opinion that it would be cool. I've never been to Rome, yet I'm of the opinion that it would be historically interesting. All that is true, but how can it be if I've never done any of those things? -

Why is this a prerequisite for having an opinion? What is this biased media jag fans and conservatives always cry about? For every EGM review you can point me to that undeservedly bashed a jag game, i can point you to a GameFan review that undeservedly praised one. The system has a handful of decent games, and many mediocre games. There's not really enough incentive to own one based on those facts. To me it is worth having for Tempest 2000 and Tenpest 2000 alone, but that's just me. -
yes, you could probably get $50-$65 for those games. I'm glad Craigslist is working out for you.

yes. I blame Neo Geo (24 bit?), Jaguar (64bit?- i know, just kidding), and Dreamcast (pretty sure it was only 64 bit). But it really ended with Xbox, which I believe is built around a 32 bit processor. -
well, anyone who wanted one of these on the cheap should check out Target. Systems are $25, extra controllers are $10, games are $10, and cards are $5 (or basically everything is half off.) They are also clearancing the IWL cards for $2 a pack.

have a new classic controller, what games are you interested in?
-
Original Xbox imo.

Now that you have a Wii, your thoughts & games?
jesusc replied to Mendon's topic in Nintendo Wii / Wii U
I bought a Wii and Metal Slug. Being that I already bought Zelda for Gamecube, I'm feeling that I really didn't need a Wii yet. There's nothing decent for it. However, playing all of the Slugs is nice. -
or maybe everyone has heard you are a bad trader and don't want the headache of dealing with you. Lord knows I don't.

$40 seems high for just a loose cart. keep checking ebay, I've seen them go for $15.

AvP is an unplayable mess. Doom wins by default.

Game Gear, Turbo Express or Lynx?
jesusc replied to AtticGamer's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Shouldn't you be busy taking credit for games you didn't make? -
GTAdvance 3 was pretty solid. I liked the first one, but it had a password save function that was about eight miles long, and it changed with every modification to the car. I haven't played others like Cruis'n Velocity or the Need for Speed games but I have it on good authority that you want to stay away from Corvette.

What was the first VideoGame magazine you ever bought?
jesusc replied to jboypacman's topic in Classic Console Discussion
First one was a Videogames and Computer Entertainment. It had a strategy section on Alex Kidd in Miracle World. -
My Sega CD --HELP! ....took apart/found culprit!
jesusc replied to ewing92's topic in Classic Console Discussion
First, I'm glad to see that I was right. I hate doubting myself. Second, I've got extra cables kicking around. Shoot me a PM if interested. Push reset button on the genesis, that should eject the tray. -

jesusc replied to AtticGamer's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Which one can you play Blazing Lazers, Galaga '90, and Military Madness on? I'd get that one. If money is no object and you want the best looking games, Turbo Express can't be beat. The system isn't THAT expensive, I've seen them go for $60. The games on the other hand are a pain to find anywhere other than eBay. Yet even then a lot of the good ones can be had for less than $20 mostly complete, even cheaper for just the game card. -
My Sega CD --HELP! ....took apart/found culprit!
jesusc replied to ewing92's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Weird. I've owned both models many times throughout the years and never noticed anything missing when playing games ( i never hooked up the mixing cable). Not that i don't believe you, i'm just really surpised I never noticed a difference. What would be a good game to run to make it evident? -
My Sega CD --HELP! ....took apart/found culprit!
jesusc replied to ewing92's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Both Sega CD models use the original Genesis supply. You can't use a yellow tip plug with the 2nd CD unit. I was under the impression that the mixing cable for the first genesis was only to get stereo out of the unit as the first genesis didn't output stereo through the AV jack on the back. That way you could pass the sound from the Genesis into the Sega CD, and then use the stereo out jacks on that. -
TZD used to, but I don't see them on the sale list anymore. You might want to shoot them an email to see if they still might have some though.

to each their own, but I personally enjoyed the Streets of Rage, Shinobi, Shining Force, Mickey Mouse, and Xmen series. The Mega Man, Road Rash, Bust A Move, Baku Baku, Ristar ,Tempo, and Earthworm Jim games were great as well. There was a dearth of shooters, but I think that was more because shooters don't translate well to small screens.
