Both shrinkwrapped, both cardboard boxes. Goin' on eBay this weekend. - KOF R2 - Metal Slug 1st Mission $11.12 shipped for either one, $19.48 for both.

I'm slowly packing and moving a few blocks away, so I'm digging up stuff and shipping a lot out. I have the best deal of your young week. I have one DVD of "The Best of Blondes" from those good folks at Metro Interactive. This fine quality film features: - Digitally Mastered - DVD-ROM...

I already have a Turbo Duo. I'm thinking of picking up an original PC Engine... So... I've got all the bases covered, right? Any JPN Hu Card can be played in the PCE, US Hu Card, All CDs in the Duo.

Thought I'd throw it up here before eBaying it. I'm selling my Tetris Plus 2 daughter board for MS32 (not the motherboard, just the cart). It's in perfect working condition. The artwork appears to be a copy. I bought it off of yahoo japan last year for $30, but shipping was $95 and change. I'm...

Just curious to see if anyone can pre-date Cosmic Ark for the Atari systems as the first twitch game. In this case twitch game being defined as an precision and reaction based gameplay. Although it may be a personal bias, I think of Combat as more of a Pong derivitive.

Played through it. It was good. Ambiguous morality is fun. I did sorta not-roleplay and just kill a will (you can really, really be evil with little consequence). Kinda easy, but it's nice that I can return to the area unlike the Operation Anchorage. But the one thing I wanted to point out was...

Has anyone ever encountered an AC adapter that is: 1) A standard NEMA 2 prong, unpolarized. and 2) Rated at 180-220 Volts? I'm wondering if the cheap chinese adapter I got is simply mis-stickered.

In what will be the greatest discovery in the history of history, some chemical schmucks have produced a cleanser that restores old Amigas and Commodores to their original color. It sounds like the exact same problem (flame retardant) that plagues jaundiced SNESes! They call it Retr0Bright...

Just hypothetically... how bad is it to drink expired soft drinks. Assuming it's properly sealed, to me it doesn't sound like a hospitable environment pathogens. This website has a six pack of Josta for $300. Which I'm less interested in than the Pepsi Blue, but that's $600 for a 12 pack...

I can't find if semipenultimate is actually a word. I've heard it used to mean the fourth to last. Which would be weird because "semi-finals" is right before the finals and antepenultimate is right before the penultimate. Which leads to another wierd one. According to Merriam Webster the word...

I installed foremost using macports and for whatever reason it didn't come with a man or readme entry. I've installed it a few times and it's just not there. You can run it with the -h flag and get a little info, but I like to have a man page incase I ever need something without internet. Can...

Well... Not everyone cares, but Street Fighter IV is upon us. I know a lot of people have been picking up Mad Catz and Hori sticks. Just curious to see how people are ordering.

Well... for the 10 minutes it'll take you to beat it, but it's really well done. http://hotel626.com/ The very end is pretty awesome.

*initially a post about how I suck, now just about the game* I bought the SNK Arcade Classics for mah Wii (mainly because most of my friends have a Wii and I wanted a game besides Testunoko vs Capcom to use my Hori stick with), played Neo Turf Masters for about 10 minutes - let me rewind. I've...

I'll be using it in a project so... I really just need the female end. Preferably wired with all 21 pins. I'd like to have at least, 6 inches of cable with it. I've looked into the female to female couplers and I'd have to re-wire them (and at that point, I might as well just buy the connector...
