Ripping straight from the game is the best, but not really ideal, as you need to know exactly what format the game's music is stored in and hope someone has released tools to open them. I'd say the phono leads to your PC, then using Audacity is your best bet.Quote:

Lol. I usually just offer $0.01 to get under their skin. But I can see your way is better. That way you can get under their skin twice by prompting them to reply.Quote:

I would have linked it here, but unsurprisingly, the auction was closed when I went back to it (probably he was getting trolled by everyone on eBay).
And Quick, the lot MIGHT be worth $750, as long as you didn't mind 75% sports titles (including several duplicates) and only a handful of games from the good-to-decent range.
Wait, here we go: http://m.ebay.com/itm/262954652176
Yup. Definitely not enough playable titles to warrant a purchase. Heck, I'd have trouble getting my $200 back even.
Gotta love a listing for a lot that has a single blurry image to go by and no individual listings or descriptions of the items.

These multigame pirate handhelds are the deep-fried twinkies of the video game world, and I love them.

I think I've come to the realization that Nintendo is the NFL of video game companies.
Lol. Now I see what you meant. I thought at first it was about some lawnmower incident with fecal matter flying all over the place.Quote:

The build quality is super cheap, the emulation is dubious, but the screen is actually pretty amazing (especially compared to the original GBA), and the selection of games is pretty great. This particular one is Genesis/Mega Drive-focused, including Hyperstone Heist, Ghosbusters, the Mario Bros hack, and Ghouls N Ghosts.Quote:

Yeah, they're dirt cheap. I ended up splurging on four of these things, and I'm pretty sure they were all under $10.
The screens aren't perfect by any means (the colors polarize if you aren't looking at them dead-on), but they are leaps and bounds better than, say, the Atari Lynx screen, Game Gear, or Neo Geo Pocket.
I gotta say I have yet to be disappointed with a Stephen King film or TV series. Even the campy 80s films, or the TV movies of the 90s were pretty damn interesting. I hope this is just as cool and not just piggy-backing on the Lord of the Rings/Harry Potter train like so many book adaptations thereafter:
It looks great so far. At least they made the gunslinger look badass.
I was completely ambivalent about this movie until I saw who was playing the Gunslinger. Idris Elba kicks ass.
