    Googie and Tom Coppola's Shine The Light of Love is one of the best albums i've heard in a long time. #oldiebutgoodie

      well I was just searching around and I found one for under $800, I'd say it was a steal but who knows

      Just got to love ebay auctions... Really, good luck on getting the carts, the keyboard, and the control module - you'll probably need it if you keep the thing.

    Why the phuck is Nes's so expensive nowadays. Last I checked they were on Ebay buy it now for $60 and those were overpriced(they sold for about $30 less), now you can't find one for less than $60... sheesh

      Sounds like now's the time to sell my toploader.

      Well, consider that there were what, 34 million North American units sold between front and top loaders. Probably a chunk ended up being thrown out either due to age or pin connector problems. Others probably stopped working due to other issues, but let's say there are, at minimum, 20 million units left.

       

      Now think about just how many people are actually interested in classic game collecting? It's in the millions. And if you already have an NES, you're probably not reall...

      I doubt that 2/3s of all NES are still operational.

      I'm sure that the "Did You Know?" part of the site hasn't been updated in a while.

    Does anybody have a CPS changer they can sell me? I'd really appreciate that and that would mean the world to me as i had one as a child that burned down with our house

    my dad brought me a Capcom CPS Changer when I was little and love the thing like it was my best friend. Sadly it burned to smithereens when the house got burned down. never been the same and it still hurts me to this day. RIP my best friend :_(

      Sorry for your loss. Probably a fire is what most of us fear the most. If we get burglared, there still is a tiny chance to get back the goods. A flood will damage stuff, but some might be possible to salvage. A fire on the other hand tends to leave nothing useful.

    2. TheObscureGamer

      TheObscureGamer

      Thanks for that Carlsson.

  17. TheObscureGamer

    Changing the name of my album to CPS changer as that was the console I had before it unfortunately got burned in a fire :_(

      Could be worse, my physical job is boring as hell and doesn't really pay that well.

    The Boy and the Beast is an Anime you MUST go see if you're an Anime fan

  21. TheObscureGamer

    Brought a Steam controller on Tuesday. Comfortable but the plastic is not as good as what's on the PS4, the face buttons are small(almost twice as small as the Xbox One's). No headphone jack or rechargeable battery pack but overall it's a solid controller and I'd recommend it.

  22. TheObscureGamer

    if anybody has an Xbox one or PS4 controller for cheap you can sell me, please PM me and thanks

      I am very skeptical that I would enjoy this game.

      I can't say enough good things about Mario Maker. It exceeded my already sky high expectations. It's easily one of my favourite pieces of software in years.
