Hi! I let you a PM about a problem with the payment!!!!

It's all good man, I know Paypal takes a small chunk, no need to add more.  Thoughtful of you though!

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Raffle: Ninja Spirit, Winner chosen!!!]

Thanks Whisper!  It's my first raffle win ever.  Anywhere. Did I say 'ever' yet?

Congrats evil! May it teach you many new ninja tricks

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Raffle: Ninja Spirit]

Yay!  I only started collecting for this system but I've heard good things about this one.  Count me in, please!
If I were a ninja, I could sneak to my work's punchclock, punch in, go home for 8 hours, then sneak back and punch out.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Gaming Magnets and Pins, made to order! *updated!*]

They are beautiful! How much shipping a box of nine to Spain?

Thanks!
Shouldn't be too much, as it would go as a regular letter size envelope.  For me to ship it local is around $4, US  around $6

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Gaming Magnets and Pins, made to order! *updated!*]

Yeah they really do look great!  Shouldn't have checked your thread again because now I want them all (Punch Out, MM, etc).  The possibilities are endless - Bonk (like FQ suggested), SMB 2, 3 and World, Ninja Gaiden, Golgo 13, Ghosts & Goblins, Sonic, maybe a set of old arcade game titles like Frogger and such.  I'm just gonna have to buy a case of all the different magnets and then cover my fridge with them!

  I am talking to EPG about buy several sets of all the US game consoles, but I think later I'll be back for more.  Not just for myself either, these will make great gifts.  Keep up the great work my friend!

Thanks Glazball!

Added two Punch-Out sets, a Castlevania, and a Mega Man 2 boss set

Let me know in a pm what you're interested in.  Also, I started a small sale thread and I think it's still somewhere on this first page of threads 

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Does this game suck as bad as the first 30 seconds let on?]

I played this at Sparky's place and it wasn't so bad.  Almost too 'cutsie' but not bad in my eyes.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Girly CD's part of complete set?]

I remember a local shop had these for $50-$60 when they were new.  Takes me back..(to a porno shop)

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Gaming Magnets and Pins, made to order!]

A set could be any 9 shown, from whatever 'grouping'.  You want a couple Mario, a donkey kong and a console logo?  cool, thats a set. 

For CUSTOM ORDERS I mean if there's something you want that isn't shown at all, like a set of MegaMan themes or Street Fighter

Nectarsis, ya gleaming steaming pile of goodness, how are ya!  Thanks for the good words!

Hello fellow retro gaming friends and freaks! 

I launched these a little while back and then ran into some personal issues which kept me from going full steam ahead with these.  But now everything is running smoothly (new, better supplier).

What I have are classic 1.25" pin-back buttons and sturdy 1.25" ceramic magnets featuring retro gaming goodness we all can appreciate.  I am always working on new sets so stay tuned to my galleries (until my site is finalized).



PRICES:
BUTTONS: Any set of nine buttons are only $10.  This includes choosing your own from the console logos or the themed sets. Each set is pachaged in a sturdy card-sleeve design.
Custom buttons are priced at $15 a set and you have to supply the images.  I don't really have time to photoshop the hell outta things, so please make em readily available!

MAGNETS: Any set of nine magnets are only $15.  Again, from the choose-your-own console stuff or the themed sets of nine.  These come packaged in a square metal tin and bubble wrapped to keep em safe during shipping.  Custom magnet sets are $20.  Same set-up as the aforementioned buttons.

Check out my galleries here (damn site asks you to get an app, just say no) http://prickbuttons.minus.com/uploads

HOW TO ORDER:
PM me here or email mattjkutcher@gmail.com.  Paypal is preferred and custom orders require a %50 deposit before final artwork is approved.

SHIPPING:
I ship from Canada so it will vary by location if outside of Canada.  Within Canada, I can ship a single set for $4

Feel free to bombard me with questions, suggestions, or scathing hate mail!

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Raffle: TG16\PCE Magnets...]

Hey guys, these are my magnets that dear ol Sparky has been plugging.  Right now I'm making sets for sale at an upcoming retro game swap meet I'm doing lots of game related goodness.  I'm just finalizing some proper images and full details as well as final production costs.  When it came to packaging, I needed to figure out a couple things: the first being how to ship flat, so I could mail them in a standard letter bubble mailer and avoid the stupid Canada Post cost of shipping a box, and the second I needed a way to ship them without damaging them since the magnets are ceramic based.  So the cd sized tin came to mind.  Suggestions on packaging are appreciated

So whomever wins picks any 9 from the pics below!
Thanks for the feedback gents!

So here are the images below.  Keep in mind that I've drawn everything in vector and these are just jpegs of them and ALL images can be a button or a magnet.  So rest assured, they are CRISP and CLEAN images!  The arcade button set was created for an arcade enthusiast and the arrows are to create a combo on your fridge  
Pricing is as follows:

Pin-Back Buttons:
set of 9: $7
set of 9 custom ordered: $12
single: $1

Magnets:          
set of 9: $10
set of 9 custom ordered: $15
single: $2

I can surely say I do not have this.  May I join in, please?

I hope I'm not too late, or it's for veterans only (as I'm new here).  Please count me in if possible,thanks!

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Odd 3rd party controller with my Core Grafx]

So I bought this machine boxed for a mere five bucks at a thrift store here in Ontario.  Of course, as bad luck is something I do well, the thing was abused and modded (hacked up, more like) for PAL play or something.  All fixed now, though I don't have the machine in my hands just yet.

So here's the oddity of which I can't seem to find info on, and since I'm a total noob when it comes to all thing NEC, I'll ask you blokes.

Here is the front of the controller, notably missing some text:



And here's a shot of the back with some weird dipswitch, nothing labeled:


Sorry for the shit pictures, but I only had an ipad at my disposal.
Can someone tell me more about this thing, who made it perhaps?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Raffle: Super Star Soldier!]

I would like to put my name in the hat please

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: RAFFLE - LOOSE DUNGEON EXPLORER HUCARD]

My first game for my (as of yet to be mailed to me) system!  this would be very cool...

Welcome aboard, evil.  Watch out for that Sparky guy - he'll try to talk you into caressing his truck nuts.

Oh crap...you mean I'm not supposed to? 
Sparky, you said it was a necessary hazing into your club!

Oh and I am jaded.  Cuz I'm looking for quality now 

Sup sup Evil... it's been awhile. ;)   Welcome to the site

Whats up my cheesy nectarine!  We miss you in the pew-pew games!

*Ahem*
(stands)
My name is Evilplayground, and I am a retro game addict. 
I've been directed to this great site by a fellow member and collector, Sparky.  My NEC collection is teenie tiny as I've only just begun, but have a few thousand games ranging from RCA Studio II to PS3.

I found myself in a dusty thrift store off the beaten path one day and happened upon a boxed, seemingly complete Core Grafx machine in its original box.  Price tag; only $5.  SOLD.  I was giddy with my new find and took it home to inspect.  Of course, I've never had much luck in these matters and this occasion in particular proved the same.  It was 'retrofitted' with some bizarre PAL type modification and was utterly useless.  Then I looked at the controllers, where I noticed these weren't first party pads, oh no, they were something different entirely.  They look legit from a quick glance, but one might spot the little red switch on the side of these things along with the main logo being ever so slightly....wrong.

Dear ole Sparky assured me he could save my machine and my sanity and has since sent it for servicing to one of you fine fellows.  I have yet to see the final product, but man oh man, am I excited!

So, anyway, I hope to meet more enthusiasts and learn a great deal more on this unique manufacturer and all it has to offer.


Evil. (me!)
