That's so cool, can't wait to see the video. Would love to read more about the technical aspects of the programming bug and the link harness too.

Looking to buy a top loader. Console only is fine

I picked up a TurboGrafx CD, but now I need to get a docking station and HuCard. Let me know if you have one or both you're willing to part with!

That sounds exactly like what I’m going for. Can you upload your list somewhere? I’d also like to add cartridge images so you know what to look for when going through bins of Japanese games

I am running through the Japanese Game Boy ROM set and creating a list of games playable without knowing Japanese. Games might still contain some Japanese, but if they seem easy enough to figure out or easily translate, I err on the side of including them. Is anyone aware of such a list already existing? Aero Star - Unique shmup After Burst - Mech platformer puzzler, single screen, weird frame rate Akumajou Dracula - Shikoku Taru Zens… - Castlevania Legends Akumajou Special - Boku Dracula-kun Amida - Fun unique pathfinding puzzle game Asmik-kun World 2 - IDK, maybe. 2d overhead puzzle thing? Astro Rabby - 2D overhead jumping game? Bakuretsu Senshi Warrior - 2D single screen platformer puzzler, kinda like donkey kong 94 Banishing Racer - 2D platformer where you play as a car. Really good. Baseball Kids - 4 - all in English baseball game Battle Bull - 2D overhead tank battler game? Kinda like bomber man, but not really Battle Crusher - Robot fighting game, some Japanese, can probably get through it Battle Pingpong - fun ping pong game BattleCity - overhead 2D tank game, single screen-ish. Block Kuzushi GB - Arkanoid clone, some Japanese, story related Blodia - 4 - Puzzler, kinda like Pipe Dream Bokujou Monogatari - 1 - Harvest Moon? Bomber Boy - 4 - Bomberman-like? Bomber King - Scenario 2 - 4 - Bomberman like, more Zelda style tho Bomber Man Collection - 3.5 - Bomber Boy + Bomber Man + Bomber Man 2 Bomber Man - 4 Bomber Man 2 - 2 Bomber Man 3 - 2 Booby Boys - 3 - 2D overhead Lode Runner Bouken! Puzzle Road - 1.5 - Puzzle game where you fit shapes into an area Boulder Dash - 4 Boxing - 4 - “Mai Tyson” Bubble Bobble - 4 - Bubble Bobble Bubble Bobble Jr - 4 - Bubble Bobble Jr. Bubble Ghost - 4 - Like Soul Bubbles for DS, cool game Bubs Bunny Collection - 3.5 - Bugs Bunny platformer puzzler gamez Burai Senshi Deluxe - 3.5 - Horizontally scrolling shmup where you're a guy with a jetpack. Cool unique take on gameboy shmup Burning Paper - 4? - No text present, but seems weird. 2D cursor-based shooter where you're shooting bugs off a building Cadillac 2 - 1.5 - Card/poker puzzle game Caesars Palace - 2 - Caesar's Palace but it's in Japanese Capcom Quiz: Hatena no Daibouken - 1 Captain Tsubasa J: Zenkoku Seiha e no Chousen - 1 - Terrible soccer game Captain Tsubasa VS - 1 Card Game - 4- Generic blackjack, poker, and "USA Page 1" Chachamaru Boukenki 3: Abyss no Tou - 1 Chachamaru Panic - 3.5? - Don't really know what's going on in this one Chalvo 55: Super Puzzle Action - 3 - Platformer, somewhat puzzley, kinda cool Chibi Maruko-chan 2: Deluxe Maruko World - 1 Chibi Maruko-chan 3: Mezase! Game Taishou no Maki - 1 Chibi Maruko-chan 4: Kore ga Nihon Da yo! Ouji-sama - 1 Chibi Maruko-chan: Maruko Deluxe Theater - 1 Chibi Maruko-chan: Okozukai Daisakusen! - 1 Chiki Chiki Machine Mou Race - 2 - Weird racing game Chiki Chiki Tengoku - 3.5 - Match-3 Puzzle game Chikyuu Kaihou Gun ZAS - 4 - Vertical shmup, seems really cool. Chou Mashin Eiyuu Den Wataru: Mazekko Monster - 1 Chou Mashin Eiyuu Den Wataru: Mazekko Monster 2 - 1 Chousoku Spinner - 1.5 - Cool unique yo-yoing game, worth seeking out translation patch, but not really playable without Collection Pocket - 2 - Collection of shmups, or minigames? You can get into gameplay, but not much else Contra - 3.5 - This might be Operation C? Contra Spirits - 3.5 - Cool Contra game, might be a demake of Contra 3? Crayon Shin-chan 2: Ora to Wanpaku Gokko Dazo - 2.5 - Interesting platformer, playable, but seems like some significant story/dialogue and menu choices Crayon Shin-chan 3: Ora no Gokigen Athletic - 1.5 - I think this is a story game with a collection of mini games? Not really playable Crayon Shin-chan 4: Ora no Itazura Daihenshin - 2.5 - Interesting platformer, playable, but seems like some significant story/dialogue and menu choices Crayon Shin-chan: Ora no Gokigen Collection - 1 - No idea, lots of story/dialogue Crayon Shin-chan: Ora to Shiro wa Otomodachi Da yo - 2.5 - Interesting platformer, playable, but seems like some significant story/dialogue and menu choices Cult Jump - 1 - Cool name but forget it Cult Master: Ultraman ni Miserarete - 1 - Seems like a quiz game Dirty Racing - 3.5 - Great title, really fun racing game Uchuu no Kishi Tekkaman Blade - mech platform, you have a blade and can use a grapple hook Bionic Commando style Super Hunchback - Weird main character, really cool platformer, good graphics Super Snakey - Weird as hell Tetris-like

Touchmaster Trilogy. These may never get remastered. Just pay for shipping

https://festivalofgamesny.com/ I will be here this weekend, anyone else planning to go?

Only interested in CIB, let me know what you have! Interested in all shmups

I was in Book Off this weekend and found a CIB copy of Altered Beast for $11. The cartridge has typical looking cartridge wear, and the manual is slightly yellowed and feels authentic, but the case seems uncharacteristically clean. Would this be a replacement case anyone is familiar with? I am also curious about where the hangtab would normally be. It looks...odd? If it was cut off, it was an exceptionally clean cut, but it also looks like it could have been injected molded that way. Thoughts? Is the case a replacement? The whole thing fake?

Who's got it?

SNES component cables aren't available anywhere and don't look like they will be for some time. So I am going with SCART for that, and it's easier to have everything over component or SCART for my setup.

Does the placement of the power button infuriate anyone else? I have had to restart so many infuriatingly long Luigis Mansion: Dark Moon missions due to resting the unit on my right pinkie right under the power button. Not only that, the button is annoyingly hard to press when I actually do want to press it. I ordered this grip which hopefully will alleviate the issue.

Converting my setup to SCART, so I am looking to buy Genesis (Model 1) and PS2 SCART cables, preferably from Insurrection/RetroAccess/RetroGamingCables. If you are up for trading, I have a HD Retrovision PS2 component cable, RetroGamingCables Genesis Model 1 component cable, and a HD Retrovision component extension cable available.

Found one

Title says it all, looking for loose cart
