      Did you receive your dollar from Albert?

    3. godslabrat

      godslabrat

      Yes. Or rather, I got seven combat carts, which is about the same thing

      Anyone looking for a twitchy, irritable butthead to hang up when things get boring? Text me. No calls, I hate the phone.

      godslabrat

      twitchy, irritable butthead? Sounds like it requires some sort of topical cream

    3. Flojomojo

      Flojomojo

      No, but I have a friend who won an Xbox One from one of those Microsoft Research booths that pop up around my area- they got a tour of the offices & some free games too.

       

      I'm also not sure they've ever really used it. :P

      My dad won a 2600 back in the day as a door prize raffle at the grand opening of a local grocery store. That's about as close as I can get.

      GoldLeader

      Oh, I did also win a Gatorade cooler from the radio show "Metal Shop"...Oh I also won a Dos Equis cooler from a liquor store...I'm good with winning coolers I guess haha...

  6. Thrifters! Still stumbling over LPs of Herb Alpert?

      atari2600land

      Everywhere I go, Herb Alpert records. Why did he make so many?

    2. Nathan Strum

      Nathan Strum

      One of the top ten selling artists of the 1960's. Still making music, too.

  7. What's the go-to device to add an IR receiver to a PS3 these days?

      Yes, this bugs me, too. These people must be so afraid of writing that they'd rather let the world see blurry, poorly-lit YouTube footage of them, with messy hair and a scruffy beard, wearing a ratty old wifebeater stained with beer and Cheetos powder. That's what I always get whenever I encounter one of these videos.

    3. Brian R.

      Brian R.

      Totally agree. Sometimes I see something of interest, click to read, see a video I don't want to be bothered to watch and leave.

    4. RickR

      RickR

      Right on!

       

  9. Does anyone know where I can score some vintage plastic NES game cases, free-ish?

  10. "Arkham Knight" will only be on XB1 and PS4. This is the first casualty in my decision to go Nintendo-only this gen. I can live with that.

      Zzz would not have bought it for my Wii u anyway.

    3. DoctorTom

      DoctorTom

      I love N, but there are going to be a lot more games not coming to Wii U. But does anyone buy Wii U for third party stuff anyway?

    4. Stephen

      Stephen

      Meh - I am sure the big N is all set to release another Mario title.

  11. I don't really need a backwards compatible PS4. I'd really just love a BluRay player that happened to load PS1 & PS2 games.

  12. Can you play the PC version of Lego Lotr with a d-pad only, or is an analog stick a must?

  13. Every November, I get bored at the lack of current gen news going into the holidays, so I get the itch to buy something current. Every January, I'm always overloaded with new announcements. Gotta hand it to the industry, they know how to control the narrative.

      Keatah

      ehh.. just don't pay no attention to it!

  14. A friend of mine would love some classic SNES games... trying to trick them into getting a WiiU so I could gift them digitally...

    1. ilovethevectrex

      ilovethevectrex

      introduce him to emulators ;)

      I'm considering it, but not before I can at least talk her into a USB gamepad

  15. I just love how Google took over the usenet archive business, broke it beyond repair, then just doesn't care.

      reminds me of Reader... Embrace, kill the competition, then kill the service.

      lol usenet. some things are best forgotten.

    4. NE146

      NE146

      Yeah. Nobody should use usenet. Y'all keep out. :)

  16. Selling a wireless Apple KB in the marketplace.

  17. How expensive/uncommon are the "sled extensions" used to join a Genesis 1 to a SegaCD 2?

    1. Sir Guntz

      Sir Guntz

      The SCD 2 extender thing isn't too expensive, but very uncommon. Just keep an eye open for when one comes up for sale.

  18. I'd love to see a hack of NES Jeopardy with modern questions and answers.

  19. Finally disconnected my 360 in favor of an AppleTV. Not getting rid of it, but I don't use it often enough to warrant keeping it connected.

  20. What's the deal with Adventure Time? It's apparently popular, but it looks stupid to me. And I like cartoons!

    2. ilovethevectrex

      ilovethevectrex

      eh, i think its ok. but then again if you compare it to almost every other modern show its amazing lol. but if you compare it to some older cartoons its absolute crap. i guess it depends what your into

    3. InfraMan

      InfraMan

      It has John DiMaggio, and that's good enough for me! :)

    4. Bill Loguidice

      Bill Loguidice

      I don't know what older cartoons you're comparing it to, ilovethevectrex, but I'd argue that shows like Adventure Time, The Amazing World of Gumball, and The Looney Tunes Show (the new sitcom one) are the equal or better of any past such cartoons.

  21. Selling a USB turntable. Need one, PM me.

      How broke is broke? I'm asking $35 shipped.

      Do you know if its belt driven or direct drive?

    4. toptenmaterial

      toptenmaterial

      Like for scratching? I would presume for that cheap it's a belt drive.

      Dragon Warrior any day!

    3. NE146

      NE146

      No fanboyism here. But PS1 is fAAAAR FAAAR FAAAR and away better than DW1. It's not even a contest. The rest is debatable.

    4. xDragonWarrior

      xDragonWarrior

      OK but that still dosent mean anything.I like Tekken 3 and Super Street Fighter 2 better than any of the other games in the series when the other games in the series(Tekken tag, 4,5,Super Street Fighter 4) are superior in every way.More characters,levels,graphics,same fluid fighting etc so a game on better hardware dosen't make it better than the previous games on "inferior" hardware.

  23. I hate how spray-can dusters now have a bittering agent to keep people from huffing. Everything in my office tastes like poison, just because some dweeb wants to fry his brain.

      It's the air. You get the taste just by breathing it... and it doesn't go away

      I know what you mean rat. You get it on your keyboard and then its everywhere.

  24. Craigslist ad for a Pikachu N64: "It has a value of 800 dollars in good condition and a value of 139$ in bad condition."

    1. Grig

      Grig

      I think the CL author left out a decimal right after the $8 and the $1

    2. Master Phruby

      Master Phruby

      Buy it! You know you want it!

    3. Cebus Capucinis

      Cebus Capucinis

      ....and can we guess what the 'Craigslist' value is? I'm betting $1600? LMAO
