Perhaps the same could be said of all collectors
Their words are as empty as their consoles, mankind ill needs collectors such as them.

That is astounding! I love it. What game is the music that starts at 0:27 from (the old footage from 2000)?
One thing that caught my eye was the complete (I assume new) Robot Block aka Stack Up set at 8:35. What an epic treasure trove.

How Rygar NES? I only played the arcade version.
Have they shipped yet? I don't have mine.
Actually, does anyone need one? I backed it but probably won't install it since I don't even have a toaster.

Rygar on NES is great. I just replayed it a few months ago and it really holds up.How Rygar NES? I only played the arcade version.
Did an interview with Wes of Retrofixes.com, talked a lot about AV modding Famicoms and RGB mods for NES/Famicoms: http://backinmyplay.com/episode-55-retro-game-fixes/
Just scored a copy of NY Nyankies for $19 at a local game store. I asked how much Rockin' Kats went for... $69. I think I did well.
The better title by far.
Does it have 5 screws? That's the old type. Earlier releases are like that.
Yea it does. That's what I figured, I was just a bit confused since I have games released before Metroid that have the wedge pieces and gamebit screws, like Pinball. I actually wish I noticed before buying, it sets off my OCD a bit having only one game on my shelf different from the others!
Never knew about the 5-screw carts, eh? It's entirely possible to have "older" games with the newer 3-screw configuration (also called Rev-A) because the games had several print runs over time. Lots of info to be found about this if you search.
I imagine there are some NES carts that only have the 5-screws?
I wouldn't think of it as a bad thing to get those. They're a sign that they're the first print run from the early days of the NES. I think it's a mark of prestige![]()
Most (all?) are hang-tabs as well.
I sold a boxed 5 screw Castevania for a fortune ages ago.
It's an ugly version with misaligned label top. Got a nice minty complete V2 (still black seal) for 1/3 the price.
God bless crazy variant collectors.
Hmm speaking of NESRGB mods, had a bit of a random question and figured I might as well ask it here, since it is pretty much the only place I go to talk about my NES collecting stuff. Found a really cheap NES top loader around me that was AV modded already, decided to pick it up because why not. When I opened it up, it looks like pin 21 on the PPU was cut and lifted (to remove jailbars from what I understand?). Will it still be possible to use NESRGB to RGB mod it? My understanding is that you de-solder the whole PPU and move it to the NESRGB board, would it still function without pin 21? I have very limited understanding on the inner workings of an NES.
Don't believe so. You could always just run a small wire, or you could just buy a ppu. I'm have a handful of them here.
Easily one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy it as much as I doMy bro just won a bid to get Bucky o Hare for 82 bucks(averages 100 bucks nowadays if you didn't know). Now I can't wait to play it(probably next week though).
It's one of the best on the system? Now I need to see how it is!!!Easily one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do
Because you die in one hit?Bucky gets significantly more interesting when you play on hard mode.
Yeah. It makes each screen seem like a puzzle. It takes a certain amount of masochism, but the infinite continues really help.Because you die in one hit?
So it looks like I may get Bucky O Hare early next week...I'll give my thoughts once I get it.
