      It's like a mini-vacation for the mind!

  4. Keith Carlson ATARI DONATION video REDO ! As the title says, it had been bothering me since the original video I uploaded Sept 12th of last year because of back-lighting it was hard to see most of the items I was attempting to show. Now I have corrected that mistake with this video, while not perfect allows you to see all the Atari related goodness in clear detail. THANKS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14fEd0MGFBE
  5. http://www.retroist.com/2013/09/06/how-to-play-your-atari-2600-on-a-modern-television/ How to play your Atari 2600 on a modern Television ;) OBVIOUSLY not for most HERE but MAN this one has had to be explained so many times over the years lol. Always Face palm when I hear "My picutre is fuzzy when I tried my NES RF switcher...."
  6. Great show, I know some go way over with the "But this is wrong and that is not accurate" HEY I am the biggest nerd, they make a good and interesting show that is sort of a reflection of a fictional company that obvious takes cues from things that went down with some good fan service thrown in, I take it for what it is, it is not a documentary, honestly we are lucky to just have a show like this lol. Oh and Cameron is pretty hot.
  7. WOW what a gem right there !
  8. EVERY)ONE ! I just purged all my Youtube subscriptions as it was getting out of hand with 800 subscriptions lol. I am in the process of adding back my favorites in case you notice me recently subscribing, this time around I really am being picky, IF you have a channel centered on Classic Gaming and or Computing let me know and I will defintiely consider it THANKS (NOTE: THIS IS NOT A Sub4Sub thing!- no promises)

      I don't get why people expect subs 4 subs

      @Yo-Yo some people are desperate to inflate their sub count, I have always done the youtube thing for my own fun, I only sub to channels I watch and only want people to sub me because they like my videos, sadly many others have a different agenda.

  9. Currently 25c / 77f here in beautiful Kelowna BC Canada, just got back home from a new Italian place where we had Meatball and Sicilian sandwiches and Cappuccino's, we brought home some Gelato (2 flavors Dark Chocolate and LIME ! Have a great weekend everybody!

  10. Just another video of opportunity, seems the only ones I have time to do these days but eh check it out THANKS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDnQwV__Na4
  11. Just occurred to me my only Trackball is for Colecovsion, I really gotta get at least one for 2600 some day !

  12. My latest friends , just some silly fun......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbkdy_NXlDQ
  13. Oh yeah the original Flashback was really more of a testing the waters device, also uses NES-on a chip with the games being ports, and those included controllers work only with the unit. Later Flashbacks , well the 2 and 2+ were actually really good as they were re-engineered hardware based on original 2600 chipset, even has traces on the board where some modders added an cart slot for very good compatibility with original carts plus you can use original joysticks and paddles. From the 3 onward they were not designed by the same people but most buyers seemed satisfied, they mostly just change up the games list and amount of included titles. I have the Flashback 2 and I am happy with it as a convenience / conversation piece but my favorite thing is using my Harmony cart with one of my original Woody or Vader models.
  14. Seeing Rowsdowers recent handheld pickups gave me the idea to post this, about the only one in my collection and not sure it really fits in the "handheld" catagory as it is pretty large lol (tabletop?) but here it is anyway my look at the Bambino Boxing videogame. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynnknsbb1Pg Came across the original commercial as well! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwt9Lk6e-7s

  20. Awesome NES gaming donations from Warumon ! [video=youtube_share;zkvpRxmmYfI] I have pasted the video description below so no need to view on youtube: !!!!!!!!!!!!!! For those who don't appreciate the narration or my usual rabble !!!!!!!!!! You may go DIRECT to the unboxing / reveal beginning around the 8 min 40 sec mark. Wow! I knew the package was coming and I knew it would have games but what is really cool is it arrived ON MY BIRTHDAY merely by fluke because it came all the way from Germany, was held up in Canadian customs and yet here it is right on my 47th Birthday ! So please share my fun and excitement (and YES I did it right this time without too much backlight washing out the images ) Thanks once again to the generous, thoughtful and all around awesome Youtuber / Retro gamer / Musician and Classic Hardware restorer Michael - "Warumon Gaiden" aka Mr.PastGlory aka Michael.
