[Basic Fun "Oregon Trail" Handheld]

Whooo I haven't been in here in a long time.  My wife got it for me for Christmas.  Took a second try to get to Oregon, but the second trip was very successful, I think only one broken leg.  Very fun, but I'll never play it again, so I neatly put it all back in the package and put it on the shelf.

Ahh heck, change is bad, I still wish it was the 80's!  Kidding aside, can't wait to see the new digs.

Repro cart from an etsy seller.

This is cool, but I wonder why someone made it?  It's even talking about the game on the back of the box.

[best gaming projector]

I just got a little mirrior projector and am awaiting delivery of a 100 inch screen.  I'll be hooking it all up this week and trying it out, I'll keep you posted if it work well.

[Retro HD Help]

Ok I came up with a solution.  I set up my raspberry pi with stella, a nes, snes and arcade emulator.  Loaded a bunch or roms and now I wait till tomorrow for the big screen delivery.  Is the only upscaler that is any good is the framemeister?  I think mine was like 20 bucks.....  but hey I guess I can use it to convert VHS to hdmi.

[Retro HD Help]

Ahh but the colors are all wrong and the video is not as nice, what to do....................................

[Retro HD Help]

 

I think rgt 85's video may have swayed me to the Hyperkin because of the switchable aspect ratio (which I would not be able to change on my projector), but still interested in your guys thoughts.

[Retro HD Help]

Hey guys I just ordered a 100 inch screen for my mirror projector and the goal is to play some retro games larger than life!  I bought a hdmi upscaler, which I thought would do the trick so I can go from rca (all my stuff is modded) to hdmi.  But there seems to be a lag (which is no fun).  Ok so I will be getting the retron77 as soon as it comes out, but what about NES?  I don't think I want the retron5 (it's expensive and I don't really play those newer systems)  I saw the retroN 1 hd, seems like a good deal at 40 bucks, but do any of you have any others?  Or anyone have any good ideas on projecting games?  Thanks in advance!

[Using a composite switchbox for RF systems]

Ok so here is my fairchild, odyssey 2 and a pong going into the genesis switch box that goes into the master system switch box then into the 5200 switchbox which has the converter to go to coax going into my antenna input on my tv.  Which ever one is turned on works. 

[Using a composite switchbox for RF systems]

I use rca splitters only one has a rca to coax going to the tv, the rest just have the rf cable going into an rca.  I have at least 6 systems hooked up at once to the single coax input.

Now does anyone make a multi cart for the 7800?  What good 7800 emulator is there?

[Vacation carts]

Just finished eating breakfast on our cape cod vacation and saw an interesting store (Greg's used books), figured I'd kill some time while my wife went into a shoe store. Place was very cool, other than used books they had some records, movies, board games and best of all games. Picked up these carts, all pretty rare. It's not often I find carts I dont have in the wild, especially this many. Owner was very cool also.
