Poor barrels didn't even post a score. I hope he sticks around for Balloon Fight.

 

Despite my hatred of the game I really meant to post a score, but we're planning a big renovation and unfortunately time got away from me  Even if I posted a score for Excite Bike, I'll be honest, I was really never in contention here, lol. I hate missing a week though.

Will definitely be posting something for Balloon Fight. I recall getting massive cramps from playing this in the past, but maybe I was just not doing it right. I do enjoy it though.

I expected a rep from Heritage or GoCollect Jeff, tbh. 

Having a Wata guy look at a Wata game is redundant... At least milk the collusion for what it's worth.

That threw me off bad. Denis even admitted knowing the game and the existing offers... Rick really needs to improve his “short list” of go-to guys. Or, do more actual pawn stuff than merchandise sales in his shop. If anyone has been there, you know what I mean.

It obviously bothers you... just correct them early and firmly. It's their job to be professional and polite.

Its like with Uber and Lyft. I don’t know the rest of the country but around here it’s insane how many there are.

I swear it's like 1 in 3 cars in the Bay Area have one or both stickers. At least they drive better than the actual cab drivers. Those guys just don't give a fuck.

Unfortunately I strongly dislike this game so far. I'm trying to force myself to play, but I'm not promising anything.

 

The cart is in my AVS but I haven't been able to get myself to fire it up yet this week. I hate this game so much.

Welcome!

You don't have much time to get a pic between races. I'm glad I'm playing on emulator because that can be paused at any time. For those playing on real hardware be ready to take the pic.

 

While I'm not anti-emulator, this is an unfair advantage. You'd be doing things to the game that isn't possible on a physical console. Since the rules are as they are, part of the challenge this week will be capturing these damn pics.

$15 locally today via OfferUp (box and styrofoam only). No idea how good of a deal it is, but (a) I wanted one, (b) It's hard to track down these suckers with styro, and (c) the cost of shipping this beast killed any desire to buy one online.

Happy for sure

Anybody capable of making NintendoAge 2.0? Do you have the proper tools to building it?

(Looks at post history)

so you want the database, but don’t want to do any work? Got it. Stay tuned. Post 50 more times about it and we'll make it happen.

There are web developers that would scoff at me not using VIM as my code editor. 

I've tried to go back and try using full-blown IDE's and things like Visual Studio Code but just can't. I get angry when I have to take hands off the keyboard to use a mouse, and I'd rather not compromise by spending half my day tabbing to the desired menu options. Modal editors, specifically VIM, for life.

Wild: CIB SNES Chrono Trigger at a thrift store. 100% complete and in great shape, all for $4. This was back in 2012 (I think).

Transaction #3

Seller: Bonanza125

Buyer: Barrels

Summary: $55 shipped for 6 NES Nintendo Games

Transaction Status: Shipped

Positive feedback.

Yet another wonderful transaction, complete with as-described games, fast (and safe) shipping, and a great price.

I saw this yesterday. I was ready to pull the trigger but took a step back... I don't think I could honestly use this regularly. Those buttons are just too small. As someone that sits at a computer 12+ hours a day, I've gotta be realistic. Very cool but a pass for me.

^ I want one sooo bad. A local seller has one and I've been nudging him for a while to lower his ask ($500). I've seen one of these in person and the graphics are amazing.

Also, I find it amazing that level 1 has the same music as DK Jr. level 4. Very catchy

I really hope the models on these kind of products get paid really well for compensation.

Mac Donald’s coupons. Cause ‘Murica.

I just got 62k and now I’m genuinely curious about the upper limits on one loop. This will be an interesting week.

I've been playing my Wii a lot lately. Picked one up for $10 at a yard sale and modded it. Very fun system, especially once I got a GameCube controller to use with it.

I think Santa should make sure they get each other... you know, just to be careful

Either my main one doesn't have labels or I've somehow ignored them for years  thanks @G-type

Yes, Game 1 / B / B will be the default settings unless otherwise specified. B is sometimes also referred to as Novice and A as Expert. There may be a few instances where the difficulty switches do not follow this rule, but according to the manual, Q*bert is not an exception: http://www.digitpress.com/library/manuals/atari2600/qbert.pdf

Could you remind me of the equivalent of 1/B/B on an Atari 7800? I think it's reversed but can never keep this straight.
