Sign me up. I gave my everdrive away to a friend in need but I still want one for myself. Just havent had the extra coin to order one recently.
Damn, that is some give away! out of curiosity, how many games can it hold? again, this is a killer ass raffle. i have one on the way so dont throw me in.

It can hold all of them with the right sd card.
It can hold ALL of them with even the smalled micro-sd card. A 2 gig card holds everything, with over a gig to spare. This comes with a 2 gig card, loaded up with every game, divided by region and hacks/translations.
I don't want the ED, but before you give it away, can you copy your SD and send me a copy? :) Mine is inadequately loaded, and for some reason I have a hard time finding quality ROMs, and didn't know there were hacks/translations for Huey games! What have I been missing!?
im in please. always wanted one.
It would be cool to play some homebrew games on this. I would like to sign up as well. :)
Wow, what a super-generous giveaway! I'm faaaaaaaaar from a senior member, and I already have a loaded ED anyways, but bunches of kudos to you for being so awesome! =D>
Holy raffles batman!
Bernies Back!!
Wow this is fantastic, best of luck to all the Seniors!
Super generous Bernie!! Would love to throw my name in the hat for this!!
Never owned one, but would love to see what I'm missing out on.
Wow, super generous of you Bernie. I already have two so don't enter me.
Damn Bernie, Looks like you might have a nice list going there. If projections are right your gonna need a big hat for all the names :-) .. Kudos to you Big man.
Awesome raffle Bernie! I already have one so don't enter my name.
I do not own an ever drive. Please add me Bernie. Awesome!
I am probably the least technically savy member in this forum, so with that being said since I do not qualify for this raffle if I were to buy an everdrive would someone here be willing to load the entire collection for me? If so please pm me. Thanks!

It's not hard at all. I would be willing to load it up for you, hell I could just walk you through it in PM's lol.
Thanks bro, I wil order it then and will hit you up.
Other than Stone Age Gamer (they are on back order) does anyone know where I can buy an everdrive?
oh nice... sign me ups

Just checked, retro gate is sold out also. :(
Is it just me or do you guys find that playing a game when you have the actual physical copy is much more satisfying than playing them on the evah-drive ?

im sure its better, but i can never seem to be able to drop 40 here60 there since my other hobby is buying parts for cars then installing them.
That's awesome. I'm still a newbie so I won't be entering. But what a giveaway!
True! That's my problem. So many bad ROMs out there. Some of them won't even run on the ED. That's why my ED selection sucks so bad. A lot of the games loaded are bad roms, and its pain in the ass to reload or reconfigure. I have no desktop pc, and my 3yr old fell on my laptop and shattered the display. I have to hook it up to the TV to use it. Gotta love the kiddies! ;)
I looked at that when it first happened. The replacement panel was $149 I think. The thing brand new was just $299, so I didn't think it was worth it

Originals where they are afforded EMU to see if its worth the coin!
If anyone here would like my set-up, just PM me. I can send you a link. I currently have it shared in my Turbo DropBox share folder.

Very generous raffle either way Bernie.
I need one of these super bad! I'm in! :D
Great raffle good luck guys.
Well this thread managed to brighten my day and then dash my hopes and dreams to pieces in one fell swoop. lol
Don't enter me, but good on you for this.
The entrant list here might even beat out the famous double-flush Bonk 3 raffle.
I also noticed it is bringing everyone out of the wood work too :-)
Reminds me of winning the lottery! all the sudden you have a shitload of new friends.
Bernie's a tip-top kind of a guy. He has given freely to myself and the community many times. He knows where him and I stand. :)

LOL, I just thought, will this be another win for EvilEvoIX? :P Or will his 15 month or so tenure void his entry?
I guess it falls under the if you have to ask part :wink:
Wow, Bernie! Heckuva raffle! Don't add me as I have a GoY flashcard. I just wanted to send major TurboKarma to you for offering this up. :D
Congrats in advance to the winner!
Amazing Raffle here, super generous.

Great raffle Bernie. I don't qualify but kudos for this !

Kudos on an awesome raffle, good luck to all you old timers...
Hah, this even brought ElSeven out of the woodwork... :lol:
DAMN.
Oh wow, that's a very nice raffle. Sign me up! I'll be sure to keep it away from non Bernie goods in fear of the curse. :P
Add me. I've always wanted one of these. I also found my first grey hair in the mirror this week. Does that count as senior?
WOAH, awesome raffle, Bernie!!!!!!!!! Sign me up! All that time went by and I thought I would've had one by now, but here comes a raffle for it! :-) Yaaay!
Nice one Bernie! Thanks for doing this.
mindblown@generosity.net
Holy hell! Nice raffle Bernie. Please sign me up!
I'm one of the top posters of DoxPhile do I count? :P
Nice raffle and good luck to all qualified entrants. Very generous of your part bernie.
I would like to be included. My GameOfYou flashcard is on the fritz again (third time) likely due to solder joint or part failure (and not due to abuse - it spends almost all its time completely motionless), and I'm not sure I can convince GameOfYou to keep fixing this thing. Seems I got a lemon... It would be nice to have an EverDrive to replace it.
This is a nice raffle, really generous of you! Just wanted to say that, obviously I don't meet the requisites. :)

I got a sneak peek at the contents and it's awesome! =D>
Damn, Bernie. MAJOR props to you for this one. Don't include me though, I'm all set already.
Awesome Bernie. Would love to win this for the kids. Add me if I qualify.
Think I will throw together a couple raffles here in a bit in the spirit of this amazing-ness!
Dangggggggg! Nice raffle! I'll give this a try. Sign me up! Thank you for such a great raffle!
Wow, this is one of the best raffles ever! Don't enter me,I just got one but I might pm you for your files.

Yeah, I kinda feel the same actually. How I met Bernie was back in 2008 after he donated $30 and needed tech support on using TurboRip to produce a Dracula X image to work on a Sony PSP. So there's that, then winning a raffle of his for one of the Ziria games, plus also recently giving me 2 days work for something he needed done, took a few hours per day, and paying me for that. So yeah, more than generous. This is hands down the best raffle to come around, but I'm curious as to why he's already willing to give up his TE though... Can't have gotten that much use given how new a product it is.

Yeah, but you're a six year n00b as far as most people are concerned since you have less than 100 posts. You should try to justify your raffle entry worthiness by mentioning meaningful contributions you have made to this forum.

Your low post count may disqualify you. I have been here for nearly 5 years and I remember you only vaguely.
Quote from: tg16manaic on 06/02/2014, 12:43 AMI've been here for 6 years :)
Doing what for 6 years ?? Not much, that's the point. Your "tg16mania" isn't all that evident and watching/lurking is not much of a contribution as others pointed out... Moreover, it looks tacky to suddenly get active for a raffle, one of the best at that, then try to somehow define seniority just by how long your account's been registered, basically hoping that lets you weasal in...
Let's say you were allowed in and you won, you walk away with it, go back to your lurking, well, doesn't that defeat the spirit of the purpose of raffles which is to reward active, long-time/frequent contributors to the forum ?? That wouldn't be fair to the people that keep this place active, interesting, above all, alive... Those that provide services, add content to the forum on a frequent basis, you get the idea... I don't think your post frequency is about to change any time soon and it shouldn't just be because of raffles either. Anyway, that's my 2 cents, and I don't mean to be rude, but you clearly don't meet any seniority standard as ambiguous as that might be.

Hahjajahahjajajaja. I was wondering if anyone was going to tell him how absurd he was.
:pcgs:
ok guys, i will kindly bow out of this one. But just for the record i am a long time member here. I'm not a lurker nor was i ever a lurker here. I've been steadily posting (at a slow pace i guess) for the whole time i've been here. I've never been away, i just don't post unless i have something important to contribute. I've dealt with many people here, hopefully some remember me and can vouch for me. Just because i don't make a lot of posts, doesn't mean i'm not a long time member here. I probably post on average a message every couple weeks, and it's been steady like that for years. I read this forum almost every day, and i chime in whenever i can, sometimes its just hard to contribute something unless i feel i have something valid to say. I don't make rambling posts lol except perhaps for this one. Anyways guys, good luck with this, and i still wanna say thanks to Bernie for this great raffle.

Wait, there's a WAFFLE on the line, too? I LOVE waffles! Can I get two entries? One for the Everdrive and one for a waffle?
<tangent> Actually, if you are ever in Cincinnati, OH, check out Taste of Belgium downtown. They have really fantastic waffles (and a good beer list, too, if you like Belgian beers). </tangent>
...man, I hope I've been here long enough for waffles. Like pancakes only crispy and with syrup pockets; waffles are truly a breakfast delight.

I'm still mad at you for not buying TV Sports Baseball. :twisted: I'm a relative noob with diarrhea of the mouth so i guess we're at opposite ends of the spectrum. Next raffle I do will have a dual qualification: must have under 20 posts a year for no less than 5 years, or must have over 700 posts a year for no more than 2 years. Both of our archetypes will be represented.
lol i guess we are at completely opposite ends of the spectrum. Its amazing how many posts u have in 2 years, compared to the amount i have in 6. But like i said, it's not like i went away or stopped posting, i've been here steady even though my post count might not reflect that. If u look through my posts they're pretty evenly spaced throughout the years lol. And i don't think i've ever gone more than a week or two without logging in, and i've completed many successful trades and sales on here too. I guess i just don't post a lot. I guess i have diarrhea of the brain, most of the time i really don't know what to say lol.
About TV Sports Baseball, i wish i would have bought it, but how was i to know? I was a 15yo punk kid at the time, i spent 24.99 on Air Zonk instead, seemed like a better idea at the time since TV Sports Baseball was 79.99. In that thread a while back, we were discussing that someone saw a machine at a video game show that was playing tv sports baseball, so we know at least a prototype exists. Also, i remember a while back there was a thread on here discussing a game lot that had a prototype of tv sports baseball
in it, that had a white cover with writing on it, in that same penmanship as those duo cd prototypes. So it's quite possible the game rom itself was completed, but who knows if it was ever sold. Maybe it was pulled off the shelves. I do remember there being a retail box, unless it was just a display box, who knows.
And getting back to the subject of the tread: I was thinking, since only 1 person will win this, and since i was disqualified for my abnormally low post-per-year count, the rest of us should do a group buy.

Bernie never posted about your post count, he just mentioned to play nice and....MMMMmmm waflles :dance:
As far as a group buy, threads pop up or you could start a new one for an interest check. 10 people/orders is what you need for the discount.

I know it wasn't.
yes, but maybe it was attempted to be sold. Maybe the game itself never made it to stores, all i know is that i remember the box being there and it had the price on it and it was mixed with the other turbo grafx games. It might have been just the box for pre-orders perhaps? and then maybe the plug was pulled on it. The game itself was completed so at least a prototype cart exists, would be so sweet if someone finds it, that would be super cool to have and to play.

But then tg16manaic might be disqualified, because at the rate he's posting, he'll be over 100 soon. =D> :P
By the way Bernie, I hadn't posted before now concerning this amazing raffle of yours, but +100 Turbo karma to you! Don't sign me up because I already have most of the HuCARD games that I want, and besides, there are already too many awesome guys signed up, like BlueBMW, JoshTurboTrollX-16, Keith Courage, Sparky, etc... to whom I would rather defer. :wink:

Hear hear! As nice as as it would be to win this raffle, I'd much rather see it go to one of the *real* senior members, which is another reason I opted out. Good luck, guys!

Hmph! How insulting, you left out esteban out of that list, an obvious favorite 'round here!
You know, there's a whole other angle on this we may have been missing... Senior members MIGHT really be our few members over 55 years of age. Perhaps some of you have been ignoring the TRUE seniors in this community, who are... er...
Do we have any seniors, here?
Did I win yet?

That's true. I recall one fellow (he was here briefly) who said (or hinted) at being a generation older...he was playing Pong as a teenager, or something.
Anyway, the raffle should go to someone who has never won anything (or nothing recently, at least). I've been lucky enough to win some stuff recently, so I wish other folks good luck.
[subliminal]OF COURSE I WANT TO WIN.[/subliminal]
I think that CAS guy was an older feller... Wasnt there some drama surrounding him too?

Methinks TheOldMan is getting close (50ish?).
Alright guys. This is officially closed now. I will do something creative tonight to draw a name. :) Maybe a video?? I updated the first post with the names of all who entered. Please let me know if I left you out by mistake.....chasing a 1 year old this morning....
^^ You'll receive a bill from my Optometrist for the eye strain caused by the color text you used. :P
guess I'm not senior enough...*kicks can on dirt road.

I thought it was a matrix thing they had between then
Red pill blue pill .
Waffles and pancakes.
I didn't catch that, probably because I prefer crepes and am consequently out of the loop.

Nice all 'round. You could have chosen a winner in a non-random fashion and I think most of us would have been pleased with the results regardless...
Thanks for doing this Bernie!
A hearty congrats Matt, you won the best raffle ever offered!!
*sniff* Waaaaaaah, I really wanted it... :cry: :cry: :cry:
NICE! Enjoy Mathius Enjoy the waffles.
very cool, congratulations.
could not have gone to a nicer guy, congrats Mathius.
Congrats! A loaded Everdrive is The Best Thing.
:shock:
I am humbled to win Bernie's most gracious raffle. This site and its people are one of the countless things that make my life full of riches and joy. Thank you, Bernie. Thank you so much.

Not that it's not a great raffle or to diminish Bernie's generosity, but I don't know if it can beat out the Bonk 3 or TurboDuo raffles.

Oh wow, I never would've guessed somebody raffled a whole Turbo Duo out (sans any blow dryer "mods" preferably)! Before my time. To be honest, a Turbo Everdrive is worth way more to me than the mediocre "Bonk III" I bought way back when, but yeah, in the face of eBay and what big spenders are willing to pay for it, point taken. You can get 2-3 TE's for it or whatever nowadays.
For stupid expensive games like Magical Chase and Bonk III the Turbo EverDrive will be my preferred way to experience them. I am comfortable with knowing I probably won't ever get them. And besides JB Harold I have about all I want form the US library.
Yeah, BlueBMW's Turbo Duo raffle, and Sparky's Bonk III raffle take the cake! Now, someone do a Beyond Shadowgate raffle..... :)
Congratulations Mathius! I think we are all winners!

A well deserved winner. Congrats Mati!
Mathius is a most-worthy winner. :pcgs:
Congrats, Mathius!
sad to lose this one, but congrats to mathius!
CONGRATULATIONS, MATHIUS!!! Yay!!!!
Grats Mathius!
Bernie is the man. Had to be said again.
'grats to Mathius.
I'm hoping that the next raffle around here is a waffle iron...
Why is there red on the waffle by her vagina?

Congrats!
Okay the Turbo Everdrive made it home. I need to document the new game room on my days off anyway so I might as well make a mention of it in the video. Stay tuned.
And Bernie...
Love ya, brother.
:) Have fun sir.

Be sure to keep it away from any other non Bernie items unless you want to be affected by the curse. :-)
I don't smell any burning plastic emanating from the game room at this time. But thanks for reminding me to worry. :P
What a nice raffle. Congrats to the winner!
As promised. I talk about the Everdrive later in the video.

The AES is the only Neo Geo I have at the moment. Once I can afford it I will pick up a CMVS since obviously the AES market went all retarded.

Yeah I totally jumped in on the AES wagon to late. Which is why all I have us the system and one game lol
I completly switched to the MVS. The major problem is ensuring I don't get duped into buying bootleg. Which the Neo Cominity is Greta at helping learn what to look for and has a wealth of information to compair chip sets and boards.
