So my brother bought this thing...
...because he wanted to play Galaga. I thought it was a little overkill just for Galaga, but he hooked it up to an old C64 monitor so I gotta admit that it's class.
Anyway, so Galaga is fun, Xevious is awesome, and Mappy sucks. Then there's Pole Position. Now, I'd've rather it was Pole Position II, but I wasn't buying and we couldn't have done split screen anyway. Point is, you can't steer in Pole Position. You boot this game up and we cannot steer your car, you can just choose how fast you will be going when you hit the first sign.
How in the hell does this happen? You only got five games to worry about, and somehow the racing game loses it's steering.
He'll never take it back, because he won't make the trip, and it's not mine so I don't really care, but I just felt it was odd enough to mention.
That stick is balls, BTW. It's like jamming a plastic fork through an old styrofoam Big Mac container and jerking it around.
