SiLic0ne t0aD Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Too bad the seller of the NIB stuff still wont reason with me.. I made solid offer on an EM#2 but we're off about $50 bucks.. I even offered more than what the last one sold for on April 4th.. Oh well.. I'll keep being patient. It'll pay off sooner or later...

Falconhood Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 (edited) darn, another system slipped from me at the last minute! I guess it's just impossible to get a cheap WORKING Colecovision on eBay. Who's buying them all? How much should I be bidding? And, WOW, I would have loved to get this when it first came out, IF it came to the USA model. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Colecovision-Adam-Computer-THEXDER-SGM-Homebrew-Game-RARE-CIB-MINT-/291129739348?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item43c8af4854 I love THEXDER, and it does make sense that Japan had it on a same-generation console. I had it on the Apple II GS back then, and NES had it. Edited April 21, 2014 by Falconhood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just contact me by e-mail and I will add you to the waiting list for the game. Same goes for all other Super Game Module games. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chart45 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I have the arcade controller from Grips as well, but I had never seen the Famicom controller for ColecoVision. I remember how natural the NES controllers felt and am excited about being able to play CV games with this controller. The price on eBay did go rather high, but I am glad I got one. If more are made here on AA I would buy another as a spare. Troy i play 2 retro system coleco and nes for me the famicom is the best since im a nes fan i own a modded snes ntt daa too but i dont play that mutch with it nes is more natural and yes sfc ntt data case is more rigid and less noisy when you play but im nes guy . i know for some people arcade stick is the way to go but for me arcade stick need a cab when im in my coutch i want dpad and my choice is famicom network . each gamer have his preference when it come to controller but the neo geo sfc ntt data and famicom network are all very good improuvement over the stock controller .... but the 3 are very expensive to build and hard to get stock hope this controller will be your best controller 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+grips03 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Yikes! $202.50 That went for alot more than I thought it would. Now im tempted to sell my Super Famicom Controller.. but I wont. If I had an extra, maybe.. I could use the money, thats for sure. I like having a wide controller selection, especially for the ColecoVision. I've got to say, Grips CV Arcade Controller is the best money I've ever spent as far as controllers go, it trumps them all IMHO. CVarcadeController.jpg I'm going to make 4 more of these controllers. They are $210 + exact shipping. Add $20 for 4-way gate. I'll post when ready to ship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBuff Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Grips, please put me on the list for one. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had him do grey and blue colors. did you get color sticker for top right and 4 rubber feet? <--- If not send me your address and I will send them for free. Also if you want different color button or ball top let me know or you can order direct from Focusattack.com as you have quick disconnects on all buttons, so pretty easy to change. I cut button B and C sides to fit case contour better, besides that it plug and play. Also if you like 4-way gate let me know that too, price is $20 + $5 shipping.

SiLic0ne t0aD Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) I like the colors very inventive. I just had him do grey and blue colors. Yes, its beautiful .. a work of art if I do say so myself! Plays great but I may have to do away with quick connects, they're causing intermittent left directional issues. Bad contact, might have to directly solder to microswitch. Honestly, I could use an extra sticker and footpads too. I could throw you some extra money if need be. Here my setup, fully stacked..

I'm quite certain your playing Princess Quest and game is designed for 4-way, not 8-way. If quick connect is lose then tighten with pliers and then slide back on.

SiLic0ne t0aD Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) I was not playing Princess Quest or any other 4-way games with it, I only use my modded ADAM controllers for those. It has 8-way gate installed so I just use it for those types of games I was playing Frontline and Frenzy, etc.. I used SAC Nuvatec Test Rom, W, NW, SW, and some of the numbers stopped working last night, in the middle of a gaming session.. Nevermind, it's fine now. lol, now all the sudden it works now after testing.. go figure. I don't know what the deal is with it but CV's are a bit temperamental at times. EDIT: Sorry for upsetting you grips, you didn't have to block me.. it's honestly what was going with the controller and I stated the issue, im not crazy.. but it fixed itself.. No big deal. Cheers.

Pixelboy Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 How? Where? Does it play on USA systems? Of course it does. Just make sure there's a SGM plugged into the front expansion port or Thexder won't work at all. Anyway, check out teampixelboy.com for more details. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, check out teampixelboy.com for more details. The Thexder was an Aussie listing, so I didn't know if it worked on the USA systems. How much is THEXDER and where to get (other than the $179 one on eBay, which is WAY outside of my range of ability to pay) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
