The Snoopy game, I already had for Wii U, but I don't like kids playing with the tablet, also it is quite frustrating to play as Woodstock using the Wii remote. Game screams for real controllers.

Thanks for such delicious breakfast.

That Jedi Knight II brought back good memories. Used to play it at a buddy's house but never owned it before. It is up and running on my Win2k rig.

Thanks Secret Santa !!!

I like how the Akai unit sounds, so in addtion to it and the WinX68k emulator,  I'd just need one of these USB to midi cables

Bought these goodies from our own Xelement. Haven't touched my PS3 for like a couple months. Last GTA game I played was GTA 2 on the Dreamcast (I know, not even SA). After enjoying TLOU decided it was a good time to enjoy the Uncharted series. LBP a nice kinda platformer revolutionary for its time. The football game was a freebie, a reminder of a time when we had choices.

New Sega Master System pickups! This was a trade with an awesome Sega16 forum member in the UK who was able to find me Sonic 1, Spider-Man, and Strider all complete and in awesome shape!

I had been wanting all of these for awhile, and since the US and UK versions are exactly the same I saw no reason not to just get them from there instead of trying to find them here.  Happy to finally have them in my library, Sonic especially seems like it will be neat to play/compare :)
Sonic 1 does not disappoint, granted you take it for what it is (a pretty good SMS platformer).

Ok, so this is the unit I was talking about the other day. The KW-PCTV-1600, VGA input then an output of either RGB, Component, S-Video and Composite. Tomorrow I'll try and see if it works with a Dreamcast and a Toshiba CRT (480i component input) and see if it's any better than using the regular composite cable.

This time I'm using flickr and http instead of https

For the "nostalgia rig". This replaces an AudioPCI which didnt sound too bad but not nearly as great as this CT1600 and no emm386 needed.

Yeah, gives me flashbacks to Ys Book I & II or Dungeon Explorer passwords...

I've never tried it, so can't speak if it's buggy or not. So, heed BlackTiger's warning.
Someone dumped the Super Cassette Vision BIOS ROM using something like that hehe.

Where'd you get the floppy drive? Is it a new product (doubtful since it's not USB), and if not, does it work fine with Win7/8? I've been thinking of getting one, but I hear bad things about the USB ones.
I got it from "Recycledgoods", they said it was refurbished. It is in great shape, no rust or dirt or anything like it and works like a champ (do yourself a favor and virus scan your disks).
I use it with a Win98 PC. My understanding is Win7 dropped support for 5.25 drives.

IMG

Kryoflux makes a usb interface for these kind of drives but is read only and a bit pricy.

The score of the year for me. Brand new with everything included (even the screw on joystick).

15 years ago or so, I got one of these (which I still have) on sale at my local Officedepot. It was awesome for pretty much everything. The first game I tried with it was OMF 2097.

Just got this beauty:

Just like with the PCE and the DC, you can never have enough of these.

and speaking of imports the Fedex guy just brought this yesterday.

It's not like the best racing game but it is fun, and most of the menus are in english, which is always welcome.

I'm surprised "Eee Tee" hasn't gone up in price.

There is no point, there are cheaper alternatives, with the same or better quality. ie get a Wii and one of these
IMG
Wii's are dirt cheap right now at around $30 used

but what is that picture of?
it is a multi controller adapter (nes/snes/gen/n64), it goes on the GC port.
 For systems like PCE I use a turbo NES controller.

I picked up my mail this weekend:

I already had a US Saturn with some US games. But I like that Japanese console look and feel (that, and it's also good to have spares). It will sit next to the all mighty Duo-R

The 97' calendar corresponds to the 2014 calendar :shock:
