    Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread XVIII

    Got Growlanser: Generations LE PS2 (LN) for $15.80, outer box was a little worn but factory sealed.  Might be worth keeping an eye on if you need one.

    possible Gamestop website credit card breach

    I got one of these as well, my last order with them was back in December.  3 "new" games that were opened and used with their stickers all over the case. I'm done with this awful company and I look forward to their inevitable bankruptcy.  No one shits on the customer like they do.

    Are HD CRT TVs good for Retro Gaming?

    As I said before the necro, I finally threw my HD CRT out because of size and my Panasonic plasma performs nearly as well.  All you need to get RGB from Genesis, Saturn and most SNES's are the right cables, no modifications necessary.  N64 requires a fairly simple mod. Sony BVM/PVM SD broadcast...

    It's not a 10/10 but I really enjoyed it, brings some of the sense of adventure back from Grandia 1.

    Gamestop shipping opened games as new?

    We all know that Gamestop B&M will sell you a open unsealed copy as a new game, but I've never had them actually ship me open unsealed games when I ordered new until now.  Stickers all over the cases, dust and fingerprints on the discs, one was even loose in the case.  Has this been going on for...

    British Stores with International Shipping (Brexit savings)

    I've been looking for a UK site selling Shenmue 2 for Dreamcast but all I can find is Amazon, most 3rd parties don't ship to the US.  Anyone know of any good used game stores with older titles like that?

    It's a great time to enter the market with the RX480 coming out at $200 and AMD Zen coming in October to drive CPU prices down. Even today there's good deals on Devil's Canyon chips.

    A censored game can still be enjoyable but that doesn't mean you can't criticize or question the necessity of it.  There are companies who pride themselves on not censoring anything unless necessary to avoid an AO rating.

    It's hard for small companies like XSeed to deal with rights issues.  It's not hard to secure the rights up front when you own the entire pipeline, from hiring the voice actors all the way to localizing and publishing overseas yourself.  They made a choice.

    Don't give me that shit about how it's hard to have dual audio in 2017.  You looked at cost/benefit and you made a business decision.  Own it.

    Sega CD Model 1 Not powering on.

    Put your multimeter into the V setting to check voltage, if there's not an automatic setting for range then select the highest one and go lower as needed.  With the Sega CD on, put your black probe on the middle pin (ground), and put the red probe on one of the outer pins.  Then put the red...

    Shenmue 3 announced, official Kickstarter launched!

    If you didn't experience that short era of 3d before dual sticks the controls are unplayable.  It was tough for me at first, you just have to accept the lack of precision.

    Sega CD Model 1 Not powering on.

    I assumed you knew all that but you have to eliminate the easy stuff first just in case. The next step would be to check the 7805 voltage regulator and figure out which side of that the problem's on, i.e. if it's getting power and if it's putting out 5v.

    Sega CD Model 1 Not powering on.

    I like the heft of my Model 1 Genesis/Model 1 Sega CD/32x stack.  It's a relic of how quickly technology evolved from the late 80s to the mid 90s.

    Sega CD Model 1 Not powering on.

    Both models require the Genesis and the Sega CD to have their own separate AC adapters.  With the 32x you'd need three.

    Sega CD Model 1 Not powering on.

    Test your ac adapters, your Genesis and your Sega CD each need one.  Make sure your using the right ac adapter, the model 1 CD uses the same one the model 1 Genesis does.  Make sure the connector on the Genesis is clean, if possible try a different Genesis, make sure there's no cartridge in the...
