The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread

[SmaMan]

Looks okay. At least it looks just like the DIN on my Genesis. Do they commonly get jammed deep inside the port? The seller said they hadn't used it in over 10 years and didn't have the video cable to test it, so who knows. Incidentally, it's from Canada if that has anything to do with it.

All that really matters is that you have Crüe Ball.

[FiftyQuid]

^^ check to see that it isn't stuck in your controller port. One of my controllers does that

Yeah, my TurboStick does that as well.  I guess the glue NEC used has finally dried up after all these years.

SmaMan you'll need a new controller.  That one is pooched.  It isn't some R@RE Canada version.

Why does this forum have such a hard on for that yellow monkey thing and anything associated with it?

1)  He's cute.

2)  It's actually a pretty good game.

3)  It's cool that they're still using him as a mascot after all these years.

4)  He's cute.

5)  The variety of stuff he's appeared on/in is just crazy.

6)

Is that on the floor (can't tell if closet or window)? That can't be very comfortable to play if it is.

Whenever I see a post by HailingTheThings, I envision this:


(Salvador Dali walking his pet anteater in downtown Paris)

That's a good thing.

[HailingTheThings]

Is that what I look like?

Been years since I've seen a mirror.

Thinking about shaving the old stache and trying out one of those soul patches I hear so damn much about....

*flies away into the night sky cackling ever so slightly*

Glad they made it! Have fun trying Darius Plus in both the SGX and PCE to see the differences.  I'll pick up Darius Plus again some other time. I wish I had it around when I was sending out SGX stuff to Joe for Game Sack.

Here is my trade with Punkic. I got SSS again after selling mine to Bucci for a worthy cause. And the cards were a great little bonus I wasn't expecting. Thanks man!

Picked up the MegaMan X2 SFC cart locally for $15. Not too shabby for a game where the US version has gone to stupid.

Last Saturn game pending:

Love me some sexy parodius... Though for some reason I seem to like Gokujyo Parodius a bit better.

I still have yet to play Gokujyo Parodius. Maybe I'll find it at MGC.

I hope Esteban sees this 

[HailingTheThings]

That...is...ADORABLE! *fawns over you*

What is it? What grows in hours? Lol

And people complain about turbo box art... why there is a horse thingy with fighting gloves in the background?

[MrFlutterPie]

It's a boxing kangaroo ;)

[bob]

I used to love the 2600 kangaroo

It's actually a Sub Boss.  A guy in a Jester Suit comes out with a Kangaroo on a leash and a whip.  You have to fight them both or if you take out the Jester the Kangaroo runs away.

More .50 PS2 fun amongst others.

Got in 2 NOS LS-30 sticks, and got them properly installed finally.  The RotoGun is complete and works wonderfully.

[IrishNinja]

^goddamn is that gorgeous, congrats man!

Playing Forgotten Worlds with that might be kind of interesting.

You DO have forgotten Worlds, right?

[SuperDeadite]

Forgotten Worlds isn't playable with this setup.  These are 12 position digital rotary switches.  Forgotten Worlds uses true analog spinners.  The original Capcom spinners have a button built in as well, so they can be pushed to fire, very rare these days, I've seen original 1 player panels sell for $500.  An original FW pcb is very expensive as well.  So no I don't.   I'm quite happy with the PC-Engine port which does have full analog support too.
