    DegasElite reacted to Justin in It was cool to see French Youtuber Manu Atari ( GemTos ) share out the ClubVCS Fanzin   
    WHOA cool, I'm just now seeing this! Late last night I finished some back end "club" work on the site and before bed took out the Club VCS Zine and read through it again. I never expected a print edition would materialize so quickly and look so good. VCS players are extremely lucky to receive this kind of incredible support. I always think of the Amico guys out there who must feel so devastated about where things are right now, and then I look at the VCS community and think how fortunate we are to have this.

    "Atari laid the groundwork for console gaming as we know it today, so it was important for G FUEL to honor that legacy with a refreshing new flavor and one of the biggest Collector's Boxes we've ever produced," said G FUEL CEO Bryan Crowley. "We know that Atari fans will be spending hours exploring all that the new Atari 2600+ system has to offer, and G FUEL is the perfect way to stay energized and focused during those long classic gaming sessions."

    I suspect HuCards could be cleaned up and made functional again but best to avoid this altogether. I’ve upgraded my HuCards with brand new plastic sleeves available from PCE Works: https://pceworks.wordpress.com/2018/05/25/hucard-sleeves/

    DegasElite reacted to Justin in It's a Christmas Miracle! Funkmaster V reviews Food Fight- Culinary Combat for the At   
    This review is spot-on. Looks like a fun time, but hard to compete with Splatoon, etc. Atari to me is about 2-D gaming and I would love a "Food Fight: RECHARGED" if they released one. The characters and gameplay seem cute, and they seem invested in the World of Atari. Worst aspect in my opinion is Atari's continuing down the path of turning Bentley Bear into a nasty grump with a chip on his shoulder - seems totally out of character and doesn't work at all for a mascot Where's "Crystal Castles: RECHARGED"? Enjoyed your review @Funkmaster V, hope you have a wonderful Christmas and an awesome New Year.

    The risk paid off I guess. I have been lucky over the years when I have found lots of games or a small amount of them from individuals, most of which I purchased just prior to Covid or during that time, and rarely got any that didn't work. I have had a few, but the sellers have been very understanding and have either refunded me, gave me a comparable replacement, or allowed me to send them back. I have a couple of controllers I wish I could fix that were faulty.

    That's a good deal on the surface, especially given the three games which were sealed.

    No, it was cheaper than trying to purchase and chase them separately. I have not sat down to estimate what the value would be, especially since three of them were sealed. But I have seen a few of those games go for $30-$50 each on Ebay and Mercari, some for $10-$20 plus shipping, and I paid $100 for all of them.

    Blood work is routine for me, too. I have a rare genetic condition from birth, called congenital factor S deficiency, which causes my my blood to clot too easily. So, I have to take blood thinners to survive.
    Funny, I didn't find out about it until over four years ago. when I had a pulmonary embolism. Fortunately, I caught it in time with no damage anywhere in my body. So, I know medically how it is.
