bikeguychicago Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Why oh why do I have to live in the Midwest. So you can go to MGC, Galloping Ghost and the Underground Retrocade Now we just need to bribe convince Albert to come up to the Milwaukee area every April...

Laner Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 So did the Concerto end up making an appearance at PGRE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRedEye Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 So did the Concerto end up making an appearance at PGRE? Yup. I've got one. Nice surprise for me was that the pokey area is socketed, so I don't have to solder one in. ...now I've got to get a 7800 and figure out how to hook it up to my rgb monitor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andromeda Stardust Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Concerto exists now!? Excellent. Will it be able to be ordered soon? I hope so. I've been dying to play the Adventure demo and Pacman 320, DK XM on real hardware. I also have a BallBlazer cart ready to sacrifice in case the Hokey Pokey is not ready.

+DrVenkman Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I'm not sacrificing a Ballblazer cart, but I can easily pull a working POKEY from one of my existing 8-bit computer stash. I'd rather use a HOKEY, simply to keep that spare computer fully operational, but I'd do it for a Concerto (with the idea of replacing it with a HOKEY at some point later, hopefully).

I'd rather use a HOKEY, simply to keep that spare computer fully operational, but I'd do it for a Concerto (with the idea of replacing it with a HOKEY at some point later, hopefully). I have a minty CIB Ball Blazer for playing (originally sealed; you can see me unbox it in this video), and a crappy one I picked at Game-X-Change for $2. The label on the game cart I picked at Game-X-change got damaged when I pulled the $2.00 price sticker off so I have no qualms about sacrificing it for the Pokey. Will a Ball blazer with the Pokey removed function if I try to play it? Will Concerto have it's own website like with the Harmony cart? My 2 cents: They should just add it to the Harmony page along with the Encore, I think. Edited October 20, 2015 by stardust4ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigO Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 That's a lot of money! I'm almost inspired to start trying to make a 7800 multi cart for that kind of money. Agreed.

desiv Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Will a Ball blazer with the Pokey removed function if I try to play it? Actually I am pretty sure I tried mine and it worked fine (minus sound).... I could be wrong, but I thought I did that to see at the time... desiv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiv Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 (edited) I say there is a little bit of demand for a 7800 flash cart, OMG! image.jpg I have zero intention of selling my CC2.. But over $900??? er... um.. And I still have my programming cable too... (didn't see that in his pic) That should easily push it to 4 digits!!

iesposta Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I bought an outdated Krokodile Kart for $105 a few months before Harmony Encore came out. Why? Harmony could not play 64K Zippy The Porcpine and Krok could, and I wanted to beta test it on real hardware. Now it is super obsolete because Harmony Encore can play 64K games and also DPC+ kernel games... unless you count it as an expensive working early hardware cart of Zippy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
