  1. YIKES!!!! I hadn't reached my first posted score yet I am curious as how to handle the rollover score, I know video would be optimal but could a still photo in the 9k range & a 2'nd still for the finished score work ? ( IF I ever get there ) keep flippin' ( oh wait that's a pinball term ...will work for THIS game )
  2. I played ita LOT when it first came out ... switching end of the tetter-totter when you think it's going to the outside helps even if he bounces off the starting spring board. you'd think if one guy landed on the other they would BOTH get all "stove-up"
  3. I thought she ditched Pac-Man long ago & took over half of all his tokens
  4. since that cart was manufactured I think a vaccine became available
  5. alrighty 7875 what happens at 10k ? does it roll back to zero ?
  6. I see what ya did thar' talking about paddle controllers your not supposed to kill the clowns but will agree that is is rather fun. I'll have to get in on this one too
  7. what's the model # of the new TV ? I am guessing in the Menu there may be different kinds of "air" signal selections
  8. that PS3 power cord is same as PS1 & PS2(fat) cord isn't it ? I think AV cord is same as those as well
  9. change the lamp shells ... unplug them first naturally !!!!!
  10. is that what we're using for the sarcasm emoji ? ... I like the chocolate icecream one myself yeah Osgeld is a good guy traded back & forth with him myself a few times welcome to teh forums
  11. get both yeah I like the sit-down driving games (not that I do any better at 'em though :| )
  12. I'm pretty much outta room myself, but I'd prolly beable to finagle a spot for that in my kitchen I had only heard that it is possibly the heaviest arcade cab for its size I see a "make offer" on it perhaps if the guy doesn't have to help you move it it'll help on the price
  13. I have been drifting away from the retro home gaming stuff myself somewhat and have moved on to playing competitive pinball. I haven't decided to get out of retro gaming it had just taken more of a back seat. That said I discovered on my road trips to find all the various what-nots. I would find in all my time testing the items the working stuff would get put on a shelf and the non-working stuff got the majority of the attention and the enjoyment was getting these things to work. My skills have improved in the tinkering but still far from what the professionals do in their diagnostic approach. The experiences I have gained have moved onto pinball ownership and fixing of my own machines. I am finding my limits there as well but celebrate others that find the areas of my limits to be more of a success (painting of all things is one of my weaknesses ) I had recently just heard of "Makerspaces" https://www.makerspaces.com/what-is-a-makerspace/and may venture down that avenue. So I suppose to answer the question of the title I would say it IS normal to get the blues about the piles of stuff that doesn't work. I still find it interesting to tinker. I haven't measured my success rate as of late on retro systems but know for sure it isn't very high. ( thinking of a couple of identical pong systems that I am not sure are working properly)
  14. wow nice, I can't play video games laying on the floor no-more myself though, last time I tried I thought I'd need to be put in traction
  15. the movie I was talking about is titled "Bronies: The Extremely Unexpected Adult Fans of My Little Pony" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2446192 /it was on Netflix for awhile, not sure if still there or not. it's at least 20% cooler than you'd expect here's a clip from the film:
  16. target audience ? I suppose you hadn't heard of "Bronies" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2446192/ the movie was actually a good watch I had never heard of the PnP there and yet another good reveiw
  17.
