I should swap it out at some point I have spare consoles.
Grouch needs to move closer to a scrapyard or dump so he can salvage stuff for nothing. Beige cases are everywhere...
if I had transportation I'd be set.Quote:

ETA: Usually cleaning will do the trick on the controller. I assume sticky buttons or some such? I had one recently where the contact pins that go into the console were recessed. :/
got most of(if not all) my apps installed on my ps3 also got the ftp setup and running.
Multiman has an FTP built in as well. Did you get that reinstalled?Quote:

I snagged a NIB sealed PAL version TurboGrafx-16 with Blazing Lazers game years ago on eBay. Bought a v1 Everdrive, then only played it once or twice, put it back in the box and it's stuck in the back of the cupboard with all the other tat... :rolleyes:Quote:

I would've used lighting for profiles with my mouse years ago but it only supports auto-switching on application start. I could have assigned it to something like command prompt and ran a batch or something but I'd have forgotten more times than not I think.
I got 2 controllers with it and the other is totally fine. The one with the I/II buttons that are a little off requires some hard presses so it might just need the pcb and rubber cleaned. Worse case I'll replace the rubber.Quote:

It is easier to get hold of the official gear but would cost more, over here anyway.
And yeah, this SSDS3 is old version so doesn't have RGB "fix" and shit. Well at least I'm guessing it doesn't. Haven't opened it, but the case is transparent smoked so I can see it definitely doesn't have fix boards added to the original pcb.

I'm waiting on a switching power supply to arrive before really digging into some games.
I've got several newer translation patches ready to go. Been a bit put out since I last had a PCE. I really should just keep this one lol.

:wacko:
Yeah I'm a bit hesitant about selling any consoles I have now... well except for dupes and spare accessories.
I'm going through cdromance dl's atm grabbing pce & cd translations I'm missing, easier than patching shit myself :lol
It's pretty much the handful of Super Grafx games I can't play, maybe there are a couple more that have compatibility issues but I haven't noticed any with my tests yet :shrug:
And fuck getting SG... have you seen the prices for the hardware? Insane :pwacko:
How can you live without playing those 5 games?!
that reminds me I should grab the sega 32x set.Quote:

Yeah not really worth it. Some of the games you can play elsewhere. I think there are three truly unique games for it. One is a shmup that's okay (Aldynes) and the other two honestly suck.Quote:

If you look at screen shots it looks much better than those versions, but there are a bunch of ports to other systems too iirc.Quote:

so that's all that's different?Quote:

I did look over it the only thing I see with it is playing games via network and installing pkgs to an external hdd. otherwise it looks like the other 2 have the same ability to play backups.
It's a really good port but most people aren't going to care that much. Especially considering the cost of entry Not sure if anyone has ever posted a detailed breakdown.Quote:

Seems to be the only halfway decent choice without a panel window. The market for cases was healthier a decade ago.Quote:
