Yes. These are cool books, so I do recommend them.

This image of a dust storm in Greece looks a lot like Hollywood movie scene of ancient ruins on Mars.

I should clarify, the Gamestation was $35. Haunting was $50. 🙂 Worth every penny though. I had it on The Sega Channel back in 95 for a couple months, but never owned a copy.

The overlay is really nice. It had a clear wrap on both sides too. I’m surprised about the manual as well. I’ll be interested to hear from you all, if yours includes a manual.
Maybe mine was left out? 🤔
Note: I forgot to mention that the CIB also includes an old school, plastic cart holder. The CIB really looks like it was produced BITD.

Treated myself. This is the last Sega Genesis I wanted for my collection. Love it. Had an sd card already loaded for the Gamestation. Had it running in 10 minutes. Very fun for $35. 🙂

It's not an Evercade item per se, but it is part of my Evercade setup 😂 I decided last week as I thought about where to use the VS-R that I wanted to use my workstation for playing in addition to working. I have a very nice 27" Dell monitor that I use with the company MacBook Pro via DisplayPort.
The monitor also supports HDMI, so I got an HDMI switch along with an HDMI audio extractor to feed audio to my external powered desktop speakers. I tested the setup with my EXP and the mini HDMI output on it. Everything looked great. The sound was great, too, except that it was extremely loud, and I had no way to control the volume.
And that's where this little volume attenuator comes in. It sits between the speakers and the HDMI audio extractor. It had good reviews and is very small. The knob has a bit of weight to it, and it turns very smoothly. I thought about getting something a little fancier in a metal case, but those are much more expensive, and most importantly, much bigger. I don't have much desktop real estate. This thing is about the size of a box of matches, maybe a little smaller.
I switched my MacBook Pro to HDMI output to keep things simpler. I then found out that when the MacBook Pro is connected via HDMI, the volume control on the keyboard does not work, so this little volume pot works there as well.
Now I'm ready to play games via HDMI at my workstation!

Here's one that I completely forgot about until I saw this picture.
