RickR Posted May 4 Author Report Share Posted May 4 (edited) Latest pickup...a whole bunch of TI stuff. I have no idea how to work the disk stuff or if it's even worth messing with.

socrates63 Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 Cool TI stuff @RickR! @TrekMD great stuff as always! I was on the fence about Professor Mariarti. I really wanted to pick up several games from MWGC but my wallet objected 🙁 Maybe some of the games will still be available later. Now on to my latest pickup… I finally pulled the trigger and ordered the Twin Stick from Edladdin. Six months ago, I bought a pair of 5200 Redemption adapters in anticipation of getting the Twin Stick at some point in the future. Now I am ready to conquer dungeons in space and hordes of robots on the SuperSystem in style. The Twin Stick is actually smaller than I expected. I thought it would be as big as the All-Play 4/8, but it is narrower in width which is great.

I've been wanting to get one of those, but I get stuck on which system to get it for. Colecovision makes the most sense to me, yet that is one system I rarely play....but is it due to the uncomfortable controllers? Is this a chicken/egg thing? Buy the Edladdin and the gaming will come? Mental paradox -- somebody help me! socrates63 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sramirez2008 Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 @socrates63 Congratulations on joining the Super Twin Brotherhood! I’m sure you’ll like it. I love playing Space Dungeon, 7800 Robotron and Champ Games’ 2600 Robotwar 2684 with it. It really is a great controller. socrates63 and RickR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sramirez2008 Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 Btw, you can use either joystick for normal, single player games, like any CX10/40 type js. This makes it one of the better ambidextrous controllers available. socrates63 and RickR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrekMD Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 Had this waiting for me today. I will need to get a cart shell but it looks that I will need to make a hole on the side to be able to change the micro SD card's content.

The Sega Genesis Arcade Power Stick is one of my favorites too. socrates63 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us know your experience when you get a chance. I tried three times after receiving the restock email, and all three times, it was no longer in stock when I got to the website. Still trying 🙂 sramirez2008, RickR and TrekMD 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 At least he will keep on making them, so just keep on trying @socrates63! I ordered a 3D printed case for this. Unfortunately, that will make it nearly impossible to get to the micro SD card slot. So, there are two potential solutions: 1. fosa 48cm SD to SD Card Extender Extension Cable 2. TF Memory Card Extension Adapter - Only Micro SD Card Extender Module socrates63 1 Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the gym! I set a calendar reminder for 2 minutes before they went on sale and then I just reloaded the page on my phone until they became available and ordered. Within minutes they were gone! May be the only way to get them! Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socrates63 Posted Friday at 02:21 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 02:21 AM Recent mail call -- Tetris and Tennis are my favorite-est games on the OG Game Boy. Back in the day, I spent the vast majority of my GB time playing those two games. I recently played Tennis on my Analogue Pocket on a flight for work. I found it still as fun after all these decades. GB Tennis is the reason why I buy Mario Tennis on all the Nintendo platforms that I own. I recently found the Tennis box with manual and inserts sans cartridge on ebay and snatched it up, so now my Tennis cartridge is CIB. I also picked up JP releases of Tennis and Mario Tennis.

I will need to get a cart shell but it looks that I will need to make a hole on the side to be able to change the micro SD card's content. Here is my pair of 2600 movie carts. I have two of them because I was one of the final testers. So one of these is a slightly earlier model that works on most 2600s, and 7800s after a FW update to it. The other is the latest version that is being sold now and works on all variants to the best of my knowledge. I'm still trying to figure out the best settings to use for the encoding. But it has been to mess with. The unlabeled cart is in an old pac man shell and I believe it is the earlier revision. The labeled one doesn't have an opening on the side but I did cut out a circle in the label to be able to take cartridge apart so I can swap out movie files.

TrekMD Posted Friday at 10:44 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 10:44 PM Latest arrivals... This first one thanks for @sramirez2008 posting about it. Very nice book! And this one I could not pass up. It's a game about diabetes. As an endocrinologist, I had to support this project. It even came with a book. sramirez2008 and RickR 2 Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming...
