That's pretty cool.

 

I had an aquarius for about 3 weeks last year. Messed around with the built in basic a little and decided it wasn't for me. Probably would've been better if I'd had some carts and the controllers to go with it.

 

Put it on epay, only got like $5+shipping.

AQUARIUS PROTOTYPES! Alright!

 

I'm probably one of the only people who cares, but I've been hoping something like this would come up. I'll put in my bids shortly...

just doing going once, twice, etc.

 

When does the "GO, GT..." sequence start then? ;)

 

to make it easier on me, no specific time but I'll probably advance that sequence every day or twice a day.

Don't worry I wont drag this on any longer than necc. =)

 

I just checked out some stuff. Night Stalker looks pretty cool. AD&D (Treasure of Tarmin) seems solid. Someone asked about Command Console and I plugged it in, it seemed to only work without the mini-expander. It tried to communicate to some piece of hardware that wasn't there and it came up with an error, so I'm not sure what that's all about. Mini-expander test cart was neat. Did lots of tests, sounds, keys, controls, etc.

 

Here's a pic of the Mini-expander test cart in action:

Freakin' awesome. Whoever wins this should get these protos dumped for the 3 people who use Aquarius emulators... :)

 

That reminds me, was that Shark Shark proto that was found ever dumped?
