    Anyone ever use a RetroPort?

    Yo, Well I have both and it is way better than the Hori in my opinion. I used the Hori for a few years with the GBA player and it just sucked with the button placement and the D pad being round didn't help. I found a minty SNES controller and it works smooth. I don't recall the button layout...

    Old school upscaling on an HDTV

    Try your systems out with a S-video cable if they will take it. It will give you a bit better video clarity. Newer TV's do have scalers that will work against a signal to upgrade it. You will be better off with the TV doing it rather than the receiver. I have a off brand dvd recorder that...

    NES Controllers

    The knock off ones I have bought are really crap. I was going to make a few into arcade stick adapters but that is all they really are good for. I have been buying old NES controllers for awile now and stripping them and cleaning them for parts. I have put back together a few that have good...

    USB to audio adapter suggestions please

    We use these at work all the time and love em. Rock solid has great features and is right around $30. I would go for that with a nice pair of head phones.

    Looking for an Arcade Help Site

    Just wire in a kill switch into some rca jack extenders and move the switch to the back. The sound might pop a bit so don't have the audio all the way up. Or just wire in a audio pot the same way in line and have it hang from the back.

    How to change a Snes game-save battery!

    Yup, I do it my old nes and snes carts as they go out. Its not hard but you do have to be able to de-solder decently and be willing to punch a hole in the grounding and solder to it. Super easy and only takes a bit of time. Drop me a line if you need some pictures or help. Later.

    Help! Need to delete saved data

    I think if you boot the system holding the start button will give you the option to do it.

    N64 Setup

    I would do Goldeneye, Perfect dark, Mario cart , Diddy kong racing, star fox. You should get the memory extender cart for the system too helps with some games. And if you have a colored N64 go for the overclock mod as it rocks for multiplayer anything for the games l listed.

    How to change a Snes game-save battery!

    To follow up on what a few people are doing. I never mess with the tabs on the battery as they are welded on and make too much of a mess when broken off old batterys. I use old cmos battery holders off of old computer mobo's or off ebay in lots when i do them for people. You have to drill out...

    Fixing/cleaning NES controllers

    Just unscrew take apart and clean. Just a note though the rubber under the buttons starts to break down and rip over time. I buy up used controllers over time and try to put together working ones. Just something to keep in mind.

    What's the "best" version of the Genesis?

    The Genny 3 should be a bit loose with the 32x because the cart slot was molded bigger to be used in all regions worldwide with different sized carts. If you are looking to do import playing it would be the best as the region and 50/60 mods are super easy and it can also be modded very easy...
