[Off-Topic / Re: Another Piece of the 80's Lost...]

I will miss going there as a child with a fist full of Jeffery Dollars and getting a Game Boy or a Game Gear or a giant Super Soaker.  Tragic

You will miss going there as a child now that it's closed, or you've always missed going there since being a child lol

Screw ebay, think of what it will auction for on the street

Dang! When you aren't watching videos, you can dead lift or curl it for a great workout.

Raiden V, very nice.

It's pretty good. Ive really enjoyed it. The way the backgrounds move can be disorienting. People that experience motion sickness may have problems with that. The bosses are a little too bullet hellish for my tastes as well.

It has some nice online features. One that I like, it graphs your score/performance vs the top score and the top 100 score.

Got these in the mail yesterday. Im really glad more stuff like this is being released.

Hopefully I'll get to pop them in tonight.

This guy does a damn fine job repairing broken pads in this video
https://youtu.be/vx50YtEC2S8

Hope you don't need it though!

Dude, this guy is hella good!!  One of the best solderers I've seen, I think I'll subscribe

The guy looks like he has a pretty expensive setup. Having the proper tools makes any job easier.

Better focus on expanding that hot sauce line.

WTF is Xseed? Sounds like genetically engineered sperm of the future.

[Off-Topic / Re: Game Sack]

Lol, somebody had a Lynx growing up.

It's funny to see how much nostalgia affects someone's perspective. If you hold a NES vs 7800 poll on Atari Age, the 7800 wins hands down, but go literally anywhere else and post that same poll. I guarantee the 7800 loses every single time. For someone who isn't a fan of either, it's easy to see which console was superior, but those nostalgia glasses are awful rosy.

There's really no defense against this argument.  No matter what I say about the Lynx, you could always attribute it to nostalgia.  And there's no way to prove you wrong, just like you can't prove I'm blinded by nostalgia.  But many people who actually have played the Lynx come away from it impressed and wondering why it didn't catch on.  Many of the games are consistently well-reviewed.  And it still has a significant fanbase today, with new games being released every year.

As far as the 7800 vs NES, there's plenty of love for the NES at AtariAge.  I don't go to the 7800 portion of the forum, but I have been a member of AtariAge for many years and I've never noticed any unusual feelings toward the NES.

I can see the point on nostalgia or memories from gamings past being an opinion altering factor, but it also works both ways. I always grew up thinking "why on earth would anyone play the Atari Jag?" because I made, what I considered a mistake, and purchased one on clearance with a handful of games and basically wrote it off as a complete failure.  But now, in my wise old age, I have been randomly snatching up single Jag games every few months and shockingly enjoying it!  I picked up Ultra Vortek and Ruiner Pinball recently and actually find them pretty awesome!

As for the Lynx, I don't know exactly how someone can deny that it has a pretty good library of games. Especially when you play them side by side with Game Gear or GameBoy games.  I still enjoy playing titles like California Games (best version IMO), Dracula, Batman Returns, and even the port of Slime World which I think is better than the Genesis port. It was full of great games!

Lynx Slime World is the best version hands down. Turbo Express excluded,  I also agree that the Lynx was the best handheld for the time.

Holy shit that was funny! How am I just now seeing this

[Off-Topic / Re: What happened to Nullity?]

Ok.... What sort of mod wizardry is at work here... I did not type dildophile

[Off-Topic / Re: What happened to Nullity?]

I haven't been very active on DildoPhile, but enjoyed my time there when the chats weren't development centric.

The indexed scan library is an awesome resource. If you haven't used it, you're really missing out.

I enjoy both sites, and I think Nulltard is a good bloke. Too bad petty shit drove him off.

[Off-Topic / Another Piece of the 80's Lost...]

I really hate seeing this, even though they've been in trouble for a while. I have so many fond memories of trips to ToysRUs, and standing mesmerized by their wall of games for all systems. Best selection anywhere.

Its not same, even when using an everdrive. There is something very satisfying about sliding a huey in, and sliding the power switch on and having the intro immediately start.

Nope... I've hated them ever since living with my freshman college roomate Eric Lutz lol

[General Gaming / Re: The Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle - NES]

Two games that I was really excited to revisit were Rygar and Clash at Demonhead. I absolutely loved both as a kid, but can't seem to get into them, or recapture that enthusiasm as an adult.

Startling Odyssey 2 with Prairie Bourbon Paradise [16% ABV] Just grinding and getting sleepy from booze.

Ah man... You gotta drink St. Bernardus from a St. Branded glass. That is one of my faves.

I really don't like Bourbon beers. They are usually too boozy for beer. I would rather just drink real bourbon.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: [Obey - Brew] pairings and other silly things]

Brilliant entree for SimEarth, you clever bastard!

Sweet Bebe Jesus, I almost missed that. Brilliant.

digi.k: Please take another photo, but with DIET COKE! Then it will be better than perfect.

Oh, wait, actually...if you included DEEP BLUE alongside the SimEarth...well, hmmmm...wait—then it wouldn't be as nuanced.

CANCEL DEEP BLUE.

SUB IN DIET COKE.

STAT!

Este... You are such a Digi asskiss

That shitty Henshin website has a mailing address.  I like sending good old fashioned hate mail.  I only need to send two words to relay my feelings.

Use the site Nulltard found, where you can anonymously send fresh animal shit to someone.

Edit: After further reading, I see NecroPhile was on top of it.

Nah man use Shipadick.com

lol

The douche would probably be thrilled to get a large cardboard dick in the mail.

What's up with people and their gross fetishes on deviantart? Body inflation, feces, disembowelment, ponys. EVERYWHERE.
Yack, deculture.

I dunno, but that shit is straight out of tumblr. Mr. Metokur does some pretty damn funny reviews of tumblr and deviant art degeneracy on YouTube. It's pretty damn funny.

[Off-Topic / Re: Random Pictures Thread]

Chicago gangs tagged my garage [again] with their "artistic expression..." It's been reported to the alderman/district CAPS office... :/ https://t.co/YgwhrL5zxC

These clowns call themselves "SD" I believe for "Satan's Disciples." Usually their symbolism was just "SD." I remember I was asked to join when I was a kid. They've always been around areas of Chicago.

I dunno what the f*ck they do besides illegally import spray paint into Chicago to spray graffiti. Because of bastards like these, I have to drive to suburbs to buy spray paint when needed as retail sale got banned inside Chicago city limits...

It may be time to find a new neighborhood.

I think KCs art is better than most. He looks pretty stupid, but at least it was hand drawn. Many look like they were created in Corel with clip art.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: WTB: Magical Chase Manual]

OP.. I usually have a few extra Magical Chase manuals lying around. Let me check under my couch cushions. I'll let you know.

Otherwise, check DoxPhile. Bitches be giving shit away there.

[Off-Topic / Re: That TV Series You're Watching]

I completed Stranger Things 2. It definitely does not live up to the first season. 11s story arch completely sucked.

Walking Dead is back on, and I have no idea why I'm still watching it. I really have not enjoyed the past 2 or 3 seasons. Does anyone else feel this show has run its course?
