Great stuff! I love my PVM, great that this one already has component!
I keep hoping one will show up at the thrift store. big dreams huh.
Hey, you never know. I've gotten high end VCRs (like worth $200+ still) and other outdated but still valuable electronics at thrifts, you just need to hit them really frequently.Quote:

I been wondering, Why couldn't you just get a Converter and plug it the SMS Cart SlotQuote:

( and specifically a 3000 because the screens of the other psp models give me motion sickness )
Actually I have been on the lookout for any VCRs with component out. Does such a thing exist?Quote:

Woohoo more Nintendo 64 games to add:

I remember reading about that advertisement. They were so full of themselves.
I do my best to love and appreciate every N64 game, even Superman, but Daikatana is really really terrible and much more deserving of the "worst N64 game" title.
^^
when I first played it I couldn't understand who these other characters were supposed to be in the cut scenes. lol
Later on I found out that the N64 version removed those from the actual game-play but kept them in all of the cut scenes.
Yeah this game was absolute crap.
I recall (this is going back a few years now since I played it) there was a level where this guy was supposed to give you a key/card? to proceed further in the game. Problem was when I first encountered him I thought he was an enemy type char so I shot him! The mofo just wouldn't respawn to give me access to the next area. So I was stuck. lol
I gave up after that.
I won this for only $7. I only need the two issues before it to have the complete set.

I also got 100 acid-free bags and 100 boards to store my classic gaming magazines.
Found a few neat things yesterday.
Everyone but the Lion king, which I got at my goodwill for $4. Was picked at some yard sales. Also I got my Secret of Evremore cart from eBay for only $16, which was great because I already had the box with everything but the game.

I got all 3 of these 32x games for only $6, maybe I could have taken heavy metal but I'm happy.

Nice- I'm still about seven issues away from having all of Sega Visions (that issue, included).Quote:
