  1. Contact Frank Jr. at Classic Game Junkie in Glenside Pa. I know that they are currently doing some sort of call ahead/curbside drop-off at this point. Frank has modded all of my systems and he offers a guarantee with his work. He's has a fantastic little store btw.
  2. Thanks I'll play it safe and snatch a 2600 Vader instead.
  3. I was considering purchasing one of these in lieu of an actual Atari console. Is there any downside to this device vs purchasing an actual 2600? Is it compatible with the Starpath Supercharger? Will my Colecovision's composite mod interfere with the operation of the Module? I haven't played any VCS games since the 80s and this seems like convenient way to test those waters again.
  4. The 3DO also played CD+Graphics discs. The only one I ever purchased was the disc that had both of Graham Parsons solo albums. When you played the cd through the 3DO it would play the lyrics and still frame images. I don't recall any animation.
  5. I am a little befuddled as to why the seller hasn't tested the games.
  6. Galaxian Arcade for the 5200 please. Then I will finally be able to sell my Colecovision!
  7. Philly area here. Received my copy about a week ago. Not sure when it was shipped as I seemed to have deleted my notification.
  8. Indeed they are UK based as are the blokes who are releasing Xenocrisis which I did back on Kickstarter. In case you haven't seen it here is an interview with man responsible for Tanglewood.
  9. According to the Sega-16 Forum all of the pre-orders have shipped and the game is now available at the Tanglewood website with a 7 day wait for dispatch. I ordered my copy a day or so after yours and I have not received a shipping notice although my payment was processed. Just wondering if you received a shipping notice.
  10. Order placed, fingers crossed.
  11. Ten plus minutes of 80s musical bliss.

      Sounds like it.

      Good stuff!

  12. I backed this. I do hope they include the option to use two controllers.
  13. Good to hear your comments on the B&O. At least I know I am not missing anything.
  14. Empty those wallets boys and girls it's The Game Chasers Motion Picture on Kickstarter! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2121405390/the-game-chasers-motion-picture?ref=project_link

  15. This dude tweaked his FV310 and the results are very impressive.
  16. Another reason I am interested in the JVC D-Series. They are substantially lighter than the Sony.
  17. If I lived in Europe I wouldn't even consider a trinitron. Instead I would be on the lookout for a Bang and Olufsen or, maybe, a Loewe.
  18. The FS100 has component input and it is a lower end set AFAIK. FYI the FV310 is the most desired set. It is virtually identical to the 300 except that it has a voltage regulator that is supposed to contribute to picture quality in some way or another that I cannot remember. I have never seen a 310 unfortunately.
  19. This past weekend I was comparing my Sony FS100, a very common "budget" set against a Sony FV300, a set designed to appeal to the home theater crowd. The specs that Sony published for these sets were virtually identical but FV300 was clearly the superior set. Excellent colour, contrast, and inky blacks. However I agree that geometry issues drive me nuts so I am currently looking to purchase a PVM. I will say that in my experience crts with convex screens seem that have better geometry than flat screens. I am currently searching for a JVC D Series set. On the surface they appear to be a legitimate alternative to a trinitron. http://pdf.textfiles.com/manuals/STARINMANUALS/JVC/Archive/2000%20Catalog%20-%20D%20Series.pdf
  20. Just realized that The Favourite was the only new movie I saw all year. At least it was a good choice.

      Would you say it was your Favourite?

      I'm American so it would have to be my "favorite"

      Ahaaa! Nicely done.

  21. RLM brings Macaulay Culkin back to review three terrible films including a Home Alone sequel. Enjoy.
