Woah, PS2 Extravaganza - June 6 2020 - by: Rocky Raccoon
 
 

A friend sent me a modded PS2 Slim and a WHOLE boatload of PS2 and PSX games- many imports, and some burned games and some official copies. This is a large mess to sort through so It'll be a bit for me to add it all to the collection. :laughing:

Also, my Model Lynx 2 came back from being recapped. The person who did it, tpugmire on AtariAge, did a lovely job. The screen is nice and bright, and he caught other issues that he offered to fix. It works really great now! He also kept in communication well.

If he offers to fix your console, he does a good job. I recommend, 5/5 stars.

Switch It On! - May 8 2020 - by: Rocky Raccoon
 
 

I now own a Switch Lite! This is the first time in a long while I've owned a console while it was still relevant and being actively developed for. I did have a 3DS for about eight months before Nintendo more or less stopped supporting it, so I don't actually count it that much.
 
That being said, I'm looking forward to many enjoyable gaming hours on it!

Lynx Sent to the Vet! - May 6 2020 - by: Rocky Raccoon
 
 

My Poor Model 2 Lynx is sick with a weak screen, evident of most capacitor issues and has been sent off to get recapped by tpugmire on Atari Age!

Hopefully this will fix the issue!

Ewwww.... - April 1 2020 - by: Rocky Raccoon
 
 

So I got the right GameBit screwdriver to open the Toploader NES I got to clean it inside, and as I suspected, It'd been a roach nest one time. No live activity, but dead bugs and dried bug 'dirt'  :angry:. Cleaned it out, gave the exterior another clean and bam, much better. And sounds less like a cockroach maraca when you shake it.  :tongue:
 
Also no April Fools jokes. Those are lame.

Toploader NES!? Toploader NES. bigsmile.gif - March 15 2020 - by: Rocky Raccoon
 
 

Got myself a toploader NES for a good price. Downside? Was dirty as heck. Goodside? Cleaned really easily. Works fine, too. Just waiting for a power supply replacement, the one it came with was like... for a dustbuster vacuum. It worked, but the wattage is too low on it.O
 
 
Oh. That picture? Just a stock image~ I might aswell make my posts look fancy, right?~  :tongue:

The No Swear Gamer - March 12 2020 - by: Rocky Raccoon
 
 

Check out The No Swear Gamer on Youtube.. He does a lot of fun reviews and doesn't rely on 'angry reviews' or crass jokes. Very informative and fun to watch. Here's a recent video about Frogger II: Three Deep on the Atari 2600 I enjoyed a lot.

Super Famicom - It's So Pudgy! n.n - March 11 2020 - by: Rocky Raccoon
 
 

Let me talk about the Super Famicom I got recently! I have a Super Nintendo, but I'm starting to think I enjoy the Super Famicom more for a few reasons. Why? Well. For the dumbest reason. I just like hiw pudgy it looks. I like how the front face looks. I like that clicky power button and eject button. I like the the clink sound carts make going in.
 
 
I also enjoy the look of the Super Famicom controllers too, with those multicolored buttons. Albeit. I don't like the much shorter cord. Basically. I'm not gonna lie. ALL my enjoyment comes from how this console looks and feels physically. In the end, it's just the same hardware as the Super Nintendo. 
 
I guess there are dumber reasons to enjoy a retro console!

Super Famicom on the Way! bigsmile.gif - March 10 2020 - by: Rocky Raccoon
 
 

I bought myself a Super Famicom. I've kind of always liked the design of the Super Famicom over the SNES in America. I have no idea why, I just do. I got some China-Knockoff Everdrive clone to run some games off it!
 
I have thoughts on Everdrives, but I'll save them for a different post soon.
