  1. M72 - VHS player, 4 copies of Nintendo game play video, head cleaner. From the Merchandisers Manual, Dec 1987: NEW DISPLAYS IN TOYS "R" US 43 Toys "R" Us stores have recently been shipped a new version Nintendo display, the NES M72. This display consists of a VHS player, 4 copies of the Nintendo game play video, and a head cleaner. These stores are testing the effectiveness of this display format in place of the NES M8 which has been used in this account to date. Please check the stores in your territory on your next call to them (after Jan. 15th) to see that the picture on the tape is bright and clear, and that the display is working properly. Ask the Dept. or Store Manager if they have had any questions or problems with the display, and note these comments on your call report. If the picture is not clear, you should as the Manager to open the display case so that you may assist in cleaning the heads on the player and changing the tape. Clean the heads following the instructions on the head cleaner. Discard the old tape and insert a new copy of the game play video. Please write "M72 INFO." on the top corner of the call report so we can pay special attention to your comments. You should contact Susan Sigel or your Regional Manager if you have any questions or problems with the NES M72.
  2. They dropped the new trailer with the re-design of Sonic. What do you guys think? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szby7ZHLnkA&feature=emb_logo
  3. Genesis is amazing, but I absolutely adore the Dreamcast. Probably nostalgia goggles, but I remember all the hype leading up to it and for me at least, it totally delivered. I love how a lot of the 3D objects rely on gradients rather than textures leading to a look that is still sharp to this day. And the VGA output compatibility is just icing on the cake! The controller has me a little bit more on the fence as that analog stick can be a little uncomfortable, but there are alternatives to that.
  4. I had a lucky break and an Electrosonic employee was able to dig up a 250 page user guide for my Vector unit! It also covers every single card that was compatible with it. Used it to find the dip switch settings to unlock the front panel last night! Can't wait to see what it can do.
  5. I thought this thread was called "Skinny Jeans". I'll see myself out.
  6. Various things related to a video wall a.k.a. lots of monitors stacked together. You can send one image to them all, like everyone in Goldeneye having their own monitor, or send many sources to one in a corporate environment for security monitors or something. The trick is finding one that supports all the analog video signals we use for gaming. Most are shunted through a PC (no good for gaming) or are fully digital, or composite only etc.
  7. Absolutely! I'm only about halfway done with re-posting the old info, but we'll get there. Excited to really comb through it afterwards and fill in missing info!
  8. I've been on a long journey to find a good way to send RGB video from my game consoles or my PC to my 2x2 video wall. There's a pretty severe lack of information out there for doing such a thing. Through a convoluted set of circumstances I was given the name "Electrosonic Vector" and found a teeny bit of information online, and some very expensive eBay listings. In reading about the product I found out that they were headquartered like 3 blocks from my work. I then found out that they had sold the "Vector" product in their lineup to Extron like 15 years ago. I contacted Extron and ended up getting in contact with a guy who was the Senior Engineer for the Vector line back when it was at Electrosonic. I got some information from him, and made a super low-ball offer on an ES-5952 Card Cage with 5 cards on ebay. Incredibly, my offer accepted first try! It came in the mail yesterday and got it's ass completely kicked in shipping. It's dented, filthy, one of the fans is whistling, one of the mounting ears is bent, one of the carry handles was smashed in, and there is some sort of security lockout on the front panel. Not a good start. But it does run, so I'm going to take the time to whip it apart, clean it properly, replace the fan, fix the dents and since it's all aluminum I figure I'll polish the case a little bit. I emailed Electrosonic's customer service last night and they gave me some tips for unlocking the front panel so hopefully I can get that sorted shortly. TL;DR: this box should allow me to do Goldeneye or Mariokart where everyone gets their own monitor.
