Post any time you get ANYTHING retro 2

[capcom_suicide]

Jesus, do I have to post some pictures of retro items I've bought but have been keeping secret just to cheer you all up?

Do it!!!

Wow, did not realise you had seen my setup and could therefore comment.

Feel free to continue to comment on **** you have not seen.

The only debate is emulation vs original carts. Image quality is equivalent.

Keep saving all your McDonalds shift money, buy an Ouya, and then comment.

Odd reaction.

Anyway, the Ouya is rubbish. Despite getting $8.5 million of a $950,000 goal, they still delivered a laggy and cheap piece of kit then pissed the rest of the money up the wall or god knows what.

It's a standard device with standard options. Having extensively played with it, it does not come close to a mint CRT setup. If you like it, good for you.

Don't be silly, nobody bought an Ouya.

hey....almost nobody.

and i agree.

I said already, but I'm just not a fan of emulation unless there's no choice (on a train for example via handheld)...

Anyhoo here's a few new bits to help rebuild the collection:

[DeathAdder]

Recent F-Zero games. Very pleased with the supposedly new, but anyway mint, Super Fami one.



and some other buys

[briareos_kerensky]

you should pick up an s-video cable to get the best out of it..

That's what I meant to do, but SVHS cables seem extinct around these parts. Will have to go to a bigger mall.

Ouya as a console is rubbish. As an emulation machine it's gold.

[nakamura]

Fair enough. I don't really like it in any form.

[Lebowski]

Ouya sounds like a posh british person agreeing with some one,

"shall we go to the country club for a spot of lunch Timothy"

"ooo ya"

[mezzanine]

Some recent things. Really should be the last new games of the year, although I do have a few other items already paid for.





The GB game is Bionic Commando and the top FC game is Super Arabian.

Missing from those pictures are some old PC games (the Apple II release of Neuromancer is one - licenced games don't usually do much for me, but I like the book and that the game is quite jokey) and a PS1 cooking game: Manpuku!! Nabe Kazoku.

[nakamura]

Ah Act raiser 2. Almost brilliant, actually frustrating but a solid game in there. Amazing graphics.

[CMcK]

Arkanoid R? Haven't heard of that one. Need to look into it. And kudos for buying O.TO.GI that's a cracking action game.

It's Arkanoid Returns, a port (with extras) of the 1997 arcade game. I've had the PS1 paddle controller for ages, it's about time that I had something other than Puchi Carat to use it with.

It also had a re-release as Arkanoid R 2000. I'm not sure the info about extra stages on the Wikipedia page is correct, though...
