StormSurge 2,562 Report post Posted November 14, 2020 So I ran into some issues streaming my classic systems. I could not get the Retron 77, NES Mini or Genesis Mini to connect with my HDMI capture card. If I can get that working this morning, I will begin at 1 PM today with the retro sessions I was hoping to have yesterday. If not, there will be a lot more LA Noire. Thank you for all of your support! 2 RickR and nosweargamer reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RickR 14,119 Report post Posted November 14, 2020 LA Noire looks like a fun game. I see it's on Steam. I'm adding it to my "wishlist". 1 StormSurge reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StormSurge 2,562 Report post Posted November 16, 2020 Thanks to all of you who supported me! I apologize for not being able to stream any of my classics. 😞 I am glad I saw @CrossBow's note in Creep's PS3 thread about LA Noire! I've had that sitting there waiting to be played for years & that was the PERFECT game to play for 18+ hours this weekend. I'm going to draw the order for the prizes in the next couple of days. I'm going to hopefully stream that and I will let you know in advance when that will take place. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! 3 Atari Creep, TrekMD and nosweargamer reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari Creep 2,605 Report post Posted November 16, 2020 Oh my god dude, I am SOOOOOO SORRY I missed this. I feel like an a$$hole. Hope you had a great stream and had a ton of fun.
