I have a Genesis with the Power Base Converter. It works quite well to play the original games for the SMS plus I can play the Genesis games, which is rather practical. The decision, however, is yours as it all depends on what you prefer. Do you want the original console to play or are you okay using another console that is capable of playing the games?

Welcome aboard!

That was a nice review of the forum. As someone who has joined recently, I find it a very accurate review.

They do look cool and, for that price, definitely a steal!

I just learned that Bill Paxton died due to complications from a surgery. Very sad news. May he rest in peace. You can read more here: Bill Paxton, ‘Titanic’ and ‘Big Love’ Star, Dead at 61

I've not seen it yet. I will let you now once I do.

I just checked again and it is there now. Maybe there was a bit of a lag. Thanks!

Cool. When should it appear in Google Play Music? I just checked and I didn't see it.

I coil the cables in the hallow part of the controllers and then fit them into the slots on the console.

You did plastic surgery on it. It does look pretty good.

Oh, the Coleco port of Donkey Kong was horrible. Can't think of a reason to like it.

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.

That box needs major surgery!

Can't say that I have. Looks nice.

I know the answer to that one but I'm not going to spoil the episode.

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.

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.

I've downloaded it but not tried it on Windows 10 yet. It does look tough as heck!

Oh, that' is some nice Vectrex stuff!

I've yet to jump on the smartwatch bandwagon. Looking at some second generation ones now to see if they are something I want.

Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. Just in case, the RetroVGS.

That looks amazing!

Probably just issues with the game contacts. The console is very sturdy. This stuff is not likely to hurt it. Try cleaning the carts.

Oh, dust will creep into any space! The amazing thing is that the equipment still work!

Another nice episode.
