  1. I have an Intellivision II myself. The controllers are a bit hard on the hands (the action buttons are difficult to press) but the system itself is pretty nice. I like it has a more modern looks and the fact that it is small.
  2. I know the answer to that one but I'm not going to spoil the episode.
  3. Ah, Jr. Pac-Man. He may be Jr. but there is nothing Jr. about him. With the massive mazes, high speed, and exploding bonus items this is a Pac-Man game that will satisfy any fan of the Pac-series of games. Of course, this particular port by Bob DeCrescenzo is nothing short of a gaming work of art. This port has graphics that are excellent and arcade-accurate. The mazes scroll horizontally and the action is just as frenetic. The sound effects are an excellent approximation to the arcade's, which is a feat all on its own given the limits of the TIA chip in the 7800. If you want to "cheat" a bit, you can use the right difficulty switch to give Jr. a speed edge that should make it easier to finish those huge mazes. In addition to all the mazes, the game features the intermission screens. I know the 2600 port does not have these and I believe other Atari ports do not have these either, so this is a nice touch. This is yet another must-have for anyone with an Atari 7800.
  4. Thanks. I'm looking at the Asus ZenWatch 3. Now that version 2.0 of Android Wear is out I'm more interested. I've heard the Galaxy Gear S is very good also.
  5. I've downloaded it but not tried it on Windows 10 yet. It does look tough as heck!
  6. I've yet to jump on the smartwatch bandwagon. Looking at some second generation ones now to see if they are something I want.
  7. Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. Just in case, the RetroVGS.
  8. Probably just issues with the game contacts. The console is very sturdy. This stuff is not likely to hurt it. Try cleaning the carts.
  9. Oh, dust will creep into any space! The amazing thing is that the equipment still work!
  10. I never had one of these. I went from VHS to DVD. It's cool you got this for free. It does look like it is a huge unit!
  11. I've always enjoyed the game. I did not know of the bad reputation until recently and it made no sense to me.
  12. Well, and this is one of three systems that are being worked on as well. Having a solid team behind this one does help so we'll see how it goes.
  13. Another nice episode. DK Jr. is more complete than DK on the 7800 as it has all the arcade screens. Looking forward to the Mario Bros episode.
  14. Cool. It'll be nice seeing this on Atari consoles.
  15. Cool, I will be watching that video. Thanks for posting it!
  16. At the time, I didn't like it. Now, I think it is part of the history of the games. It's cool to see them.
  17. Cool, will be watching soon.
  18. I don't have a ColecoVision because I've been resisting getting one. This Project Prometheus may make me stop resisting.
