  1. I recently got a CIB game and someone's initials were written on the side of the box in blue marker. I read nail polish remover could help, tried a little and it didn't work, seems to have smudged it a bit. I guess it's difficult with cardboard. Anyone else deal with this? Ideas?
  2. Only Google Chrome allows the 720p60 option, no other browser supports it as far as I'm aware.
  3. I've been nabbing up some new sealed games from ebay, so when I receive the games, I immediately take the shrinkwrap off, test/play the game and then place the box in one of those videogame protectors. It's difficult to find boxes in good shape, there is always some issue, I felt it was the seal itself, is this really the case? Did Atari put them on too tight or something? Is it because of age, the cardboard used? Actually the only mint boxes for the 7800 I found were the big ones from Absolute Entertainment. In comparison, new, sealed 5200 games, the boxes look/are mint, could be because of the different type of boxes used. You can tell Atari spent more money during the 5200 era (boxes, nice formatting description, color, etc) vs. the 7800.
  4. Put it on ebay, at least there is buyer protection with ebay/paypal.
  5. Amazing work and great communication with CPUWIZ. https://twitter.com/romeoteknik/status/593103090024189952
  6. Interesting project. However, there is no way they can guarantee a game will be released bug-free. Leaving out the option to patch is a mistake IMO. Unless each studio is going to offer replacements for free. Even with Nintendo's seal of quality, it sure didn't guarantee quality at all. What is great though is it's an HDMI system, so with all the interest in pixel perfect video like RGB NES and the such, this should be something to look forward to. Is 1080P/60 fps possible with retro games?
  7. I would add I pre-ordered 2 books from Pix'n Love publishing in October 2011. The History of Mario was finally released this year on Aug 2014. I even tweeted about it: https://twitter.com/romeoteknik/status/499301930355920896 Still waiting for the Gunpei Yokoi book though. I think going forward, projects should be put on sale when they are all made, kinda like RosColoredGaming does, though their prices are super high. I assume it's a money thing when this way is not followed, so you have to find investors.
  8. Almost complete Atari 5200 collection, all games except Bounty Bob. Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ALMOST-COMPLETE-VINTAGE-ATARI-5200-COLLECTION-WITH-BOXES-MANUAS-AND-CARTS-CIB-/231417361280?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item35e18cb380
  9. That would be Marc. His work is amazing. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/229361-anyone-interested-in-a-small-run-of-sirius-plutos/?do=findComment&comment=3065454
  10. Pitfall 2 XM, just for the POKEY music alone (like in the 5200)
  11. Yes to the box as well! Nice job Marc! Would definitely want boxed versions.
  12. He put up a new video: http://youtu.be/nl5tKHzxQ0w
  13. Got mine, amazing quality. #11. Posted the pic on twitter: https://twitter.com/romeoteknik/status/300460764609785856
  14. Bought 2 dust covers and am super impressed on the high quality. Easy transaction, highly professional and recommended.
  15. Can't wait to get these. I ordered 2, need to find frames now.
  16. Nintendo is offering it, the "original edition" of Donkey Kong, not sure how faithful it is, but it does have the pie factory. Link: http://club2.nintendo.com/donkeykong/
  17. So after looking at the list, suffice to say, it's not every single song that was made? I'd like one anthology/collection that has every single song made. I have the Vaporware Soundtrack LE, didn't even realize a 2.0 came out. Been out of the loop for awhile with this band.
  18. I hope someone can make the "unofficial" sequel for the XM, didn't even know this existed! Would this even be possible for 7800 XM? Link: http://youtu.be/yP4EOu1EWCI
  19. This sounds awesome, will wait for youtube vid.
  20. Didn't hear nothing via email, so put me down for 2 boxed (CIB).
