I just recently sold "the #1 video game console of all time". Sorry Dreamcast, I don't miss you.

The whole Master D situation in Bionic Commando (NES).

Well, here's hoping that you like it and that you tell me that I have to run out and get it!

I'm thinking about it. I may pick it up as a birthday present to myself. But, I may cheap out. I rarely pay full price for games these days. Usually, I'll wait for a price drop. I have such a backlog of games to play that it doesn't make sense for me to pay full price when I won't even play it for a year. But I do love westerns, dammit! And this one looks pretty great. Maybe I'll flip a coin...

Yeah, and good luck playing online. The retro style graphics version in the online multiplayer has some annoying lag. The updated graphics version seems fine. There is also a lot of quitting. It seems that there is no online record keeping of any kind. So, no penalty for dropping out of a game. I love Tecmo Bowl, but I kind of wish I had passed on this. Impulse shopping gets me again!

Hey, thanks for supporting the product gang! It is nice, I just feel that my owning it is a waste. I'm just not going to use it. THIS IS NOW SOLD.

I'm looking to sell mine. I just don't use it enough. I've had it for some time and have only used it once. It does work! I'm including everything in the photo. The PowerPak, manual, slipcase, 128mb card & USB card reader. You may need to update the mappers from the RetroZone site. I'm not sure. These are sold for $135, direct from RetroZone. Make me your best offer via PM and I'll let you know. And be kind, I'm trying to do something nice for my wife! My eBay username is zombiecraig, if you want to check up on me. Thank you!

Does your debit card have a Visa or MasterCard logo? If it does, use it like a credit card.

Yeah, it sounds like the connectors are off, causing the game to reset.

I wouldn't mind having a badge. I'll be there!

Is being at the show both days required for tournament entry?

My brother is interested in going to the MGC this year, which will give me a nice excuse to go. I haven't been since 2002. I think a one day ticket is $20, while advance tickets for both days are only $25. But, if we stay both days, we'll have to get a room. Look, I'm a cheap bastard. Can anyone give me the reasons why I would need to pony up for a hotel room and stay both days? Or is one day enough if you're thrifty, like me? I'm looking for an excuse...

Interesting idea! I'm looking forward to more. Please post when he adds to this column, or I'll forget about it. I know. I'm terrible.

Yes! Thanks for posting these. I've been holding off on Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, as well. I almost bought it a few days ago for $40. Now I was able to get that and Bionic Commando for less than $40! You made my day! Bionic Commando probably sucks, but for $10, I'm not going to fret about it much. And yes, it looks like downloadable content for MUA2 is gone from Live, as well.

Anyone know a source for good NES game hacks and translated games? I'm finally getting around to trying out my PowerPak and would love to try out some good ones. Anyone have any suggestions for specific games that are worth tracking down?

So, if it red rings, will they repair it for free regardless of the warranty being expired? I'm assuming so, by the other comments.

This is probably kind of a silly question, but the downloadable PSP games are not playable on the PS3, right?

SNES: I recall buying this in high school in the middle of the night at a 24 hour Wal-Mart after doing whatever high school kids do late at night in a small town. PlayStation: Bought this at Toys R Us, getting back into console gaming after years of focusing primarily on the PC. N64: Bought the Star Wars: Episode I - Racer set at Target. Got this console primarily to play some of the wrestling games that had and were being released. Game Boy Advance: Pre-ordered some sort of package deal from EBGames. PS2: Pre-ordered at launch from EBGames. Ended up getting it right before the holidays. Dreamcast: Purchased from Babbages during/after it's decline. GameCube: Used a birthday giftcard to get this from Circuit City. I recall that I had to get the Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee game and the recently released Eternal Darkness. Xbox: Got this from Best Buy, after thinking that I would never be interested in getting it. Game Boy Advance SP: I really have no idea where I got this. Best Buy? Xbox 360: Wasn't sure if I wanted it, but finally gave in after about a year after launch. I really wanted Marvel: Ultimate Alliance and Dead Rising. Game Boy Advance SP backlit version: Bought this one at Best Buy, but I think the control pad is glitchy and not very well made. Nintendo DS: Bought this at Best Buy. Have since sold it because I didn't care for the touch-screen gimmick and rarely play portable systems. Wii: Was looking for this for a while and finally ordered a damn bundle deal from Wal-Mart.com. Have since sold it, as it didn't live up to the hype for me. PS3: Bought this at Target after hearing that they were going to discontinue backwards compatibility being built-in.
