Ahhhhhh, retro baby....

[Tay]

I obtained two usb kits from the retro zone (http://www.sealiecomputing.com/retrozone/), and a couple of good 'ol nes controllers from the local flea market. Next I downloaded FCEUltra (http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/nes/fceultra.html) (best I've tried) and a rom for every NES game ever made (believe me, there are a grip)! Then I had a good old (literally) time!


Ahhhhhh, the memories:

You all are too young to remember REAL retro, let me pop in a slide card and cartridge in my Vectrex and show you what retro is all about ;)

[TheGreySpectre]

There are some interesting games out there for console if you have access to all of them

Shaq Fu, for SNES the best fighting game staring shaq ever (also the worst fighting game starting shaq ever)

I love the NES. I still play the real thing though... I have an AIW, so no emulaters for me (other than znes so I play on my PPC).

[Tay]

I'd play it on a nes too, only thing is to get it working.

Even though I am the master at getting games to work, much easier to get 'em going on the pc ;) .

I already gave it to my grandma who has prolly fixed (destroyed) it by now :D

[theMonster]

aaaaaaah, yes that's the ticket Tay. I need to drag mine out again. It's boxed up until my rec room is completed :cry: it's about 75% there :thup: still have a slight water leak to take care of before painting and carpeting :(

This adapter is interesting:
http://www.adaptoid.com/
really hard to find

[Tay]

http://search.ebay.com/n64-usb_W0QQfrppZ50QQfsopZ1QQmaxrecordsreturnedZ300


Notice the "adaptoid" going for $50, but the rest going for much cheaper. I guess people search for "adaptoid" instead of "n64 usb". I have two, btw.

Just got done with player 2. Hey, these things are kinda hard to make! (http://www.joystiq.com/entry/7817137582525561/)

[theMonster]

meh, I just buy the gravis knockoffs and spend the same amount without the soldering and frustration

[Tay]

funny how much fun one can have with so few buttons :D
