Don’t be dunking on the newbies rookies

I started a post awhile back to see if there was interest in getting some boxes needed from him. It turned out he had some stock left and the rest is history.

Streets of rage vs Sonic was the real final lol

Yoooo Amadeus is such a good movie! Evo is an odd game to have in the top 10 but I guess it just wasn’t my flavor of game.

Had to get Spriggan to go along with my Rondo of Blood for PC Engine!

Red Dead Redemption on Switch. I have it for other consoles but I thought it would be neat to replay it and be able to bring it with me to MGC to play during flights.

@BeaIank is the NES classic legal for the weekly contest out of curiosity?

My problem is probably more that I have no patience to try and play all week to improve my score. I just like the weekly contest because it gets me to play all the games that I never play. I don’t mind coming in last haha

9/10 it’s just fun as hell to play. NHL Hitz is a great time too

I played the game but I suck something fierce so my score is lower than everyone’s

42,950

Stop posting and play the game nerd!

Bumping this for less than two weeks away! I’m flying in Friday night and I’m gonna pick up my pass Friday night hopefully and wander around. I got the VIG pass so I can get in early Saturday and wander the vendor hall

My speed of buying things has slowed down dramatically as well. Once I completed the full sets I was after the mailman was probably happy to not have to come to my door every day with 2-3 packages at a time. Now I’m lucky if I get anything new every week. I’m definitely buying more quality as well, I am over buying filler games to just complete a set. I’ve really been focusing on NES homebrew for some reason but did also just add Fire Emblem for GameCube as well. It’s really fun not just slagging through a set and buying whatever tickles your fancy. I’m excited to wander the vendor area at MGC in a couple weeks and see what catches my eye. I’ve got a couple things on a list but nothing crazy price wise.

Ok so by happenstance I needed new NES box protectors and ordered 25 from both Video Game Box Protectors and Retro Protection. I’ve been buying from VGBP for years and I was shocked to learn, in my opinion of course, the Retro Protection ones are better. Last I checked they are exactly the same price but the RP protectors are slightly thicker and feel more sturdy. I’m in shock over here

I was playing SMB3 on GBA for fun today and no joke died at least 10x on the stupid world 2 quicksand by the sun. I’m rusty as hell on SMB3

they have been pretty good about keeping stock on pockets but it stinks that they are sold out again. They do charge a bunch for shipping also, but even with the added cost it’s still a superior product. If you were building the FPGBC yourself and had a donor the $85 for parts would be a no brainer if GB/GBC games were all you wanted to play but at near $200 for someone to do it for you…well Pocket is the way to go

ESPN 8 “The Ocho” is reporting that you had a death in World 1

Yessss still not in dead last. Yo @skinnygrinny what is that score bro

I like how numb we have become to the amount being spent on a video game. Like $100k yeah whatever lmao

Here is a dude on Etsy who makes them with good reviews but be aware the parts on FunnyPlaying are less than $85 with free shipping so he is charging quite a bit for maybe 30 minutes worth of work. I do not know this person or vouching for them, just going off the reviews on Etsy. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1675571388/made-to-order-nintendo-gameboy-color?gpla=1&gao=1& Id also suggest looking up reviews for this against the Analogue Pocket. If I was going to pay $179 for this I’d sure as shit spend the extra $50 to get a far superior product.

I think most people agree it’s a QA stamp which would identify where exactly it was manufactured in case of defects or like you said a factory indicator. Im not sure if this is still up for debate or not though.

I suck at math so someone check me but 1-1: 40/203 1-2: 29/208 1-3: 77/200 1-4: 26/205 Totals: 172/816

Nah the picture of the fly trap is the official greeting lol
