I was using an original nes before with A/V but found the picture quality about the same on this tv. Top loader just for convenience. Thanks Jimbo! A find on the side of the road a few years ago. 2 of the 4 video jacks are busted but the other 2 have served me well!

Since I became a Retronauts fan it's been the latter, although I always feel like a dork for doing it. Like pronouncing "anime" AH-nee-may. Just give me a wedgie already.

ninjistar | 517 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 58 minutes ago, skinnygrinny said: "gradius" but never "grah-de-us" I feel like we're playing with local colloquialisms here. I hear no different between "gradius", "grah-de-us", or "grad-dius". (unless you're going with "gray-dius", which is not one of the 3 I listed). We're gonna need a video, @skinnygrinny: you pronouncing, you playing, and you blowing something up. This is now a contest requirement for all shmups. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a French speaker, I always said Grad-dius, and I would even admit that I might fall for saying it that way in English in a casual context. But I concur that gray-dius do seems like the natural way to pronounce it in English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NESfiend | 1,514 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Apparently I played gradius a lot growing up. Every time I got thru 2 periods of blades of steel. Can't believe it took til Wednesday for the mini game to get a shout. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnpoly | 198 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I'm pretty sure that the last time we played this I submitted a score of 100, funny that now that is overdoing it! I think I'm gonna do one attempt sometime this week and submit whatever I get. Will be slightly less practice then the last couple of these!
