@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

Auto-pause depends on the game.  Some do it by time (every 15 minutes or so).  Other games do it at set points.  Vertical Force auto-pauses between every stage.  You can disable the auto-pause feature also.  Yeah Vertical Force is fun, very "soldier-ish" and a one of the best VB games.  It really makes me want to try Blade Eagle on SMS, as they both have the same 2-plane gimmick.  :)

$30 for the Virtual Boy, $5 for the games, $10,000 for the Vicodin addiction you will soon develop.
:lol: Don't play the system after a few beers. Teleroboxer is way fun but if your not careful  :-& .....

Hey guys,

I finaly got my money so I could pay for my newly used Pace Digital Soldering Station! I believe I can use solder tweezes with this station for easy chip removal as well! This sucker has a range of 350 - 850 degress F!

I almost bought a solder/desolder rework station but man those things jump at the last minute on the auctions...so this was my next best choice!

Picked it up for $40  :wink:

Hows that Afterbuner game? Is it worth buying?

Tatsujin

the pce afterburner was by far the best 8/16bit conversion. it was 1stly beaten by the x32 version years later. so yes, it's very worth. especially if playing it on the GT/LT.

Ice packs?  Those workhorses didn't even break a sweat! 

They didn't get any quarters for their hard work however the door is always open for free play any time they wish..  Come to think of it, Oldskool actually found a fistfull of change in the bottom of Power Stone but refused to keep it.
All is well. :)
