      Gamester81 had a few scary hours where he needed to form an opinion of his own without getting a paycheck

  2. So you can use the Wii Classic Pads on the NES and SNES classic. Interesting...I had no idea!

  3. Just got Netflix. Anything I should watch besides the MST3k revival?

  4. Here's hoping the Classic Gaming board stays free of pedantic "what if?" threads for a while LOL

  5. Oh JaguarVision, what whimsical post will you come up with next?

      Yeah, there's a very Space Boss like vibe here

  6. Yeh well those weird topics are coming from a small group. Attracted here by threads discussing those funky go-nowhere kickstarters. If the mods aren't diligent it has the potential to dilute AA into insignificance.

  7. Polymega thinks Atariage is an Echochamber!

      Jin- when's the last time new hardware came along that didn't warrant skepticism applied with a shovel?

  8. HDMI cables for the Genesis and Super NES? Dare I dream the impossible dream?! https://hackinformer.com/2018/07/04/review-genesis-and-snes-hd-link-cables-from-pound-technology/

      A nice thought... but no upscaling and no 4:3? Very, very hard pass

  9. I'm kinda surprised at how much I liked the new Jurassic World movie. Especially because I wasn't a huge fan of the last one.

  10. So in your opinion, who won E3 this year?

    1. godslabrat

      godslabrat

      Nintendo literally doesn't even try at E3... its always just an appetizer for their own event in late June/early July.

       

      Personally, I love the announcements from the small-time companies that can't afford E3

  12. Ataribox, where did YOU learn to fly?

      Atari SE is probably going to claim they own that phrase, and you now owe them a nickel.

  13. I wonder how many customers call Microsoft asking for great discounts if they buy 10-20 licenses of Windows or Office.

    1. godslabrat

      Subscription-based usage is what these companies have dreamed of for decades. It's only now that the infrastructure exists to make it practical, but we as consumers have been groomed to accept this since the 90s.

      Tons, considering I used to get people wanting a 10% discount if they bought a whopping TWO.

       

      I do think MS should have some sort of ultra-low-cost option, though. I'm needing a new copy of Win7, and I'm not entirely sure how to get it while being "mostly legit"

  15. I still want someone to 3D print a mini Jag shell so I can make a Coleco Chameleon Retro pi.

    1. godslabrat

      godslabrat

      That's a lot to ask of someone, since the shell is 90% of the system.

  16. I've always wondered why it is that almost every game I've ever played on the NES (aside from Kirby) is ridiculously difficult. I can't think of any other system where almost every well regarded game is crazy hard, but it certainly seems true for the NES.

    1. godslabrat

      godslabrat

      I do agree that finishing a game then was an achievement, and to day it's not. I miss that.

      It was a time when finishing a game at all was still a pretty new concept, so a lot of designers borrowed quarter-muncher mechanics from arcade games. This was not necessarily the best move.

  18. Everything you like is stupid. Everything I like is awesome. Let's argue about it for the next week!

  19. Sorry if this was talked about. But anybody else know about this unit called the RetroEngine Sigma that's being funded? https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/retroengine-sigma-mini-console-media-player-cool#/

    1. godslabrat

      It is an rPi. How many consolized rPis have popped up on crowdfunding sites this year? It's gotta be ten.

  21. I should probably be mowing my lawn...On the other hand, there's a lot of pages in the Coleco Chameleon thread I haven't read...

  22. That Sega Genesis insert style with the red stripe down the side is ugly design

  23. Sick of clicking a "retro" link and all I see is Nintendo stuff.

    1. godslabrat

      godslabrat

      I dunno... seems that the trending opinion is that Nintendo isn't retro, but PS1 is.

  24. Have you played Gameboy games on your Atari today? I have. Take that Nintendo users...
