BawesomeBurf Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 lol, that's the problem! I challenge you to find me anyone who can explain what that magazine does. When I backed them for Year 1, I thought it would be an American answer to Retro Gamer. Instead I got a weird hodgpodge covering "retro" inspired modern games, collectible tchotchkes and very very little coverage of actual retro games or the retro gaming scene between all the ads. I learned my lesson, didn't subscribe to Year 2. I try to learn from my mistakes. A couple YouTubers I watch made videos praising the mag when it first came out. Never bothered looking at it myself though. BTW, been really enjoying the videos you have made on this whole thing. Also enjoy the stuff from Leo DS, Picky Old Gamer, and Kittybot. Glad more people are speaking out on this scam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InnovaX5 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I found photographic proof that the hardware guy exists. I'm 99% positive the image on the right is who Piko spoke to over the phone, the legendary Mr. Li / Lee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marksball Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Hey all. I thought I would put this out there for you guys to check out. I was able to hold an interview with J-F from CollectorVision. Most of the discussion was about Sydney Hunter and the Curse of the Mayans but he does give a little insight into their involvement with RVGS. http://www.nintendoloveaffair.com/2016/03/collectorvision-reveals-sydney-hunter.html 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybermario Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Sorry Al. It's just a honest question that has come across my mind. I was not meaning to imply she was in any way involved and I hope she's alright. i provided a honest answer (and a lil harmless joke after) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 99% positive the image on the right is who Piko spoke to over the phone, the legendary Mr. Li / Lee jeez even that photo is faked (not the jag head man, I think that's probally the real deal) unless these guys are like 4 foot tall and an 200 yards away from the backgound Edited March 3, 2016 by Osgeld 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BawesomeBurf Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 sorry for the double post, David Giltinan removed his Toy Fair video from his Youtube channel ...and he'll probably try to claim that we're all wrong and spreading lies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chorne27983 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Coleco didn't post the message. Mike did. This is his way to weasel out without saying a word. Coleco finds non-working prototype and "pulls the page". Mike says well I tried. The end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BawesomeBurf Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Just checked David's Twitter, and it looks like he's not commenting further on the Chameleon until after the investigation. https://twitter.com/DaGiltyMan/status/705126356305252353 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CGQuarterly Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Just re-upped my AtariAge subscription.

Albert Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 If for no other reason, its cheaper than Netflix and way more entertaining. Hmmm, now that I think of it, I haven't watched Netflix since this exploded again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoRacer Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) Pardon my ignorance, but have they disclosed who is "investigating" this mess? I mean, I wouldn't trust their team to find a "clean" guy to investigate what the system is. Not only that, but I have to ask... why do they need seven days? I mean, it took this forum far less than that to determine it was a DVR card. All the "investigator" would have to do is open the shell, look at the picture of the card, notice the hot glued usb cords, led light powered by a hidden battery pack, and jaguar cart resting (unconnected) on the board, and go... "Yep. Fake". Edited March 3, 2016 by MotoRacer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+thanatos Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Not really joking, I've considered it before. And I'd definitely want the audio be higher quality than two people talking over Skype. ..Al I'd love to help. Anyone at MGC 2009-10 can attest I have a voice, since I sang Chef's "Salty Chocolate Balls". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
