TI Related -- Ebay / Heads Up Notice

[+OLD CS1]

I like eBay when it comes to retro-graphics. With a little tweaking that guys photo can now be used for other things...

 

Only if you need a cover for another crap game. That game sucks. And I like Zero Zap.

i'm not overly fond of 2049er. Team Zero Zap for life!!

 

(i do really like the game)

[Omega-TI]

You guys are funny!

Zero Zap is actually a lot of fun--and in a Gamevision case, it is doubly good. . .

Wrong!

I enjoyed Zero Zap myself.

I feel like I'm being trolled here ... but that is so wrong... on multiple levels. ROFLMAO!

[Omega-TI]

Maybe someone should port E.T. over to the TI so we can have a truly bad game to kick around?

to get the *true* experience you have to use the TI sticks, too

Also edited my blog entry where I clown on the TI sticks and beige console << HERE >>

...loaded from disk, with a DS/SD-controller

If I was going to pick a game I played and just hated the longer I played it than my choice would Hunt the Wumpus by a mile.

I always played Zero Zap with the keyboard. Not because I didn't have joysticks,just because ZZ was better without them.

NanoPEBs are up on eBay again. . .

TIPI must have had an effect on the sales of those flaky little things. Nearly two hours after you posted the message, only one has sold with two remaining, still they'll probably all be sold before the end of the day.

TIPI requires a larger investment to work (TIPI board, Raspberry Pi, 32K side car). The NanoPEB takes seconds to install and requires no configuration. Still the best all-in-one solution out there for the budget minded. And they're not really flaky. Mine has been running 24/7 for over a year now with no issues unless I bump it accidentally out of place.

Yes and the only reason I have had any issues with my CF7+'s is that I plugged unregulated items with power supplies too high for their liking. taught me a lesson for sure, still need to get another clpd programmed for one of them. The other works fine, now that they are regulated!!

Not really if we are looking at file storage and transfers and memory expansion. The TIPI obviously does a lot more and is the more desirable device for some, but for others it might be overkill for their purposes. In my view it's still an excellent option to have.

TIPI does not provide any memory it can be attached to any memory or storage setup. It will coexist with everything I've tried. It can be moved to any open cru address.

TIPI provides a 'flat file system of near unlimited size (limited only by what sd or external storage you put on the pi) with optional floppy disk device pointers to provide file access via DSK1-3 to folders on the drive. No limits on files or file size.

TIPI provides access to the internet and can be used to access http and telnet

TIPI can host devices on the pi that can be accessed from the Ti such as a mouse or camera or networked printer

TIPI is open and can be modified and extended by anyone.

 

Nano only provides 32k, floppy disk emulation and a proprietary rs232 and can not be expanded or used with any other storage or memory. It can be used with only one disk image at a time in each drive. Limiting you to 1440 sectors per drive.

Nano is closed and unable to be changed or modified or expanded.

 

I agree a nano is cheaper and simple to install.

Yes but TIPI does require memory expansion, which means an additional purchase (at least for the sidecar version which we are talking about here). Everything you said is true, but again it comes down to cost, ease of setup and the user's particular needs.

It's like comparing a Mercedes to a Beetle. Both get you from A to B, but not everybody needs or can afford the added features of the Mercedes

Yep but as soon as someone comes out with a sidecar SAMS with the 44pin interface..

I really think i would want to never connect my TI99 to a Raspberry ... i really hate it

I will resist as much as possible.
