lol.. u guys are missing the point of "collecting" and having classic consoles at home.
yes the psp can play it. but does it have the same feel as playing on a TV set complete with the designated controller and etc? clearly this thread is about old console lovers and collectors. probably you guys are too young to appreciate the old consoles. keep your psp away from this thread pls.. we know you got the best handheld ever..

NES >>>> PSP..
NES is where great games are born. before that there is the Atari 2600 (the 5200 is useless). Today's games has lost its touch of staying up late, with the tv on and the lights turn off and nothing but the sound of Super Mario Bros. 3 (or Kid Icarus FTW)playing thru ur tv set, good times. Im lucky to have experience dat. |

Feel so happy to realize there are a couple more retro gamers here
Oh yeah, I'm regretting for not taking care of my 2600, and I think it's lost or thrown away by my mom when I was abroad. My next target now is to get an arcade cabinet, with all the shmups like Raiden, Strikers 1945 etc. If everything goes well, it will be this Saturday.Still looking for a reliable NES.. saw something called Retro Duo which can play both NES and SNES games, but can't find the NES games that I want to play (all 4 Dragon Ball Z RPGs). |

That's what I'm playing at the moment. Still remember the day I play this game on my SNES+UFO (yeah, no money nor place to buy originals back then), it was May 1996, when I was in school holiday, Form 3, about 10+ times after I've completed Final Fantasy V i think the spring inside my NDSL almost gone already la. what's what you get when you are always switching carts. average one day i switch 3-4 games. hehehe..  Today's Final Fantasy's are nothing like yesteryears', thus me not playing anymore newer ones since X (and that was well below par at best).Added on August 21, 2008, 11:20 am QUOTE(K-End @ Aug 21 2008, 11:13 AM) there's alot of game i play on NES which is in jap language but manage to finished the game Yeah, I didn't mind playing games in Japanese back then.. until I was spoiled on Dreamcast where many games got US release This post has been edited by gundamalpha: Aug 21 2008, 11:20 AM |

i used to have that Casio's handheld ala Game And Watch.
u know, Western Bar, Heli Attack (not sure what it's called). i remember there's this traditional medicine shop near my house, they have 2 Game And Watch machines that dispenses kacang and you can play the game for 20 sen. i used to hog the Donkey Kong machine while my dad was getting a haircut next door. i was 5 back then. wow.. that sure brings up some nice memory. hehehe... wonder if the old taukeh still keeping that machine. wonder if i can buy it.. just for collection's sake. |

QUOTE(gundamalpha @ Aug 23 2008, 11:01 AM) Really? I'm going to arcade shopping later, if I can find one I'll help you get. Please give me more details what you want (number of slots, condition, and any games you are looking for) and I'll see what they have. I'm not selling mine because it is consolized to play on TV like normal console and I got it made from a German friend after a lot of hassles i dunno much about MVS board but how much is the normal price for it?? |

Aiyish - Just come back from shopping.. couldn't get anything for now, waiting for the seller's response to my offer. MVS-1F usually around RM300+ shipped. How are you going to play ler?
technophile - yeah you are most welcome to come over to my place when you visit Sabah, just let me know in advance. And since you like old FF so much, you will regret not playing Panzer Dragoon RPG. Definitely ranked among the best RPGs I've ever played (and I played a lot of pre PS2 ones). And I have 3 Saturns in complete with box in case you are interested bidfordun - I have some GBA and NDS games, but not selling any of them. Took me ages to find the original cartridges of GBA games (all RPGs) and I really want to keep the NDS ones except a few garbage game which I feel bad for you if you buy them (it was free gift) This post has been edited by gundamalpha: Aug 23 2008, 06:48 PM |

Hey gundamalpha and the rest of the retro console freaks here! It's been awhile since my last post in the forums. I've been rather busy and catching up with my new job
Good to know you have also started a thread here devoted to classic gaming! Some guys over here mentioned that the PSP could replace all the consoles and play those classic titles from the palm of your hand. But from what I experienced, it emulates those games pretty well and yes, I do admire the emulator author for their coding skills and so forth, BUT the actual playing experience is MISSING. I tried playing a Famicom game on the PSP and it felt kinda odd. Nothing beats the real thing. Sitting in front of your tele, deciding which game you wanna play for that evening, then slotting the cartridge in and sit back waiting for the title screen etc. And what about those light phase gun games like Duck Hunt or Wild Gunmen? Sure you can't emulate that experience. However PSP is one of the better machines for emulation. NDS was quite bad (but I'm not too sure how is it right now). I've heard that the GP32 was pretty awesome for emulation. I even tried playing some GG or GB titles on the PSP and it also felt like something's missing. I just feel that each console out there is built for it's own specialty/reason and not to emulate other machines.As for my current wishlist. It's gotta be the white GG. Has anyone in Malaysia seen the White GG set before? I first saw it in a shop in Komtar Penang. That was back in 91-92 I think. It's super rare - only 10000 units were sold in Japan. Another one would be the PC Engine LT. Super rare and expensive. I might be able to strike a good deal with someone, and if the deal comes through, I think I'll let go my current PC Engine GT (since both of them perform almost identical). Any takers for the GT? If yes, I'll post some pics at the classified sections for you to checkout the condition.That's my rant for today. Happy gaming! |

QUOTE(gundamalpha @ Dec 19 2008, 06:07 PM) Is the GameGear suppose to have a blurrish screen? This is due to aging of the game gear and it's prone to have LCD and sound problem. The cause of this is the faulty capacitor which needs to be replaced. I have a link to do this, if you're comfortable with soldering and replacing electronic component  http://members.optusnet.com.au/eviltim/ggrgb/ggrepair.html |

Because the company collapse while half way printing this game, only 5000 or less copies printed. It's a very special game, a rare 3D game from that era that still look decent these days

I played it before, the graphic animation of the bosses is quite good actually. It feels like Castlevania, but the reason for the high price is not really that it's the greatest game of course, but due to the limited number copy being produced. In fact no matter how good is the game, as long it's in abundant or has been reprinted, it's somehow reducing its value. It's following the economic rule of supply and demand, I guess |

Wow.. Some serious Saturn talk recently here
Don't wish to interrupt. But yeah, Saturn is also one of my wishlist. Nights is a good game, and so is their other 2D titles. Anyone played Shinobi on Saturn before? Awesome graphics!! Heard there are a few variants of Saturn in Japan.. The VSaturn made by Victor, and I think there are other limited editions (like the skeleton Saturn) Maybe you avid collectors should hunt them down? |

I just like to play games for fun and a bit of collecting. So far I only have one only, not the fancy Victor or Hitachi one, just the white one. The different is for these kind of Saturn they included the VCD card, while other type of Saturn has to buy the card seperately. The skeleton edition is quite nice, but not really within my budget as well This post has been edited by chronims: Dec 21 2008, 05:10 PM |

Ok. Here are a couple proper shots of my recent acquisitions
NEC PC Engine Core II  NEC Super CDROM2  NEC PC Engine GT  Some scuffs at the sides, and a tiny scratch on the screen. But overall in very good shape. Battery cover is present with no scratches. Screen is awesome with no dead pixels. PM me if anyone here is interested. It is also modded with a US/JP mode switch as you can see Some Fighting titles I got for the PCE : Fatal Fury II and Street Fighter II CE  |

Yeah. Time's the problem these days. I also have to spend time on other hobbies. Music, drawing, Gundam+Chogokin.. Not enough time & MONEY! Wow, looking back at the HiSaturn Navi system.

8 years ago, i remembered bidding on ebay for SEGA Saturn SGX system. Later got outbidded by several large margin...
Made back in the late 90’s by a company called SunSeibu, The SGX is basically a modified SEGA Saturn mounted in a heavy-duty metal enclosure with a coin-op mechanism. It also has a special seven-CD changer for easy switching between multiple games. The box has standard video and audio and controller ports so you can hook it up to any monitor and play. Did u guys still play chu chu rocket on dc? those days played multiplayer and online a lot... best part.. got it for free from Sega Europe.. at the time they giveaway as u register sega online service..

PSU n lens problem... very interested in getting UK DC... got few games that i want to play back. Someone gave me a twin dc joystick.. havent use it... Yes, the problem with most of the dreamcast is with its lens. U can try to tweak your lens though, before deeming it not working. If you can open your Dreamcast of course few months ago i acquire a dc (not sure its US or jap version)... will upload pics soon... |

If you have a non-working DC u can just swap the top part of it with ur working DC. Anyway the PAL base of the cd/ gdrom (where u put ur cd) is actually nicer since it has 2 soft cushions on the base, rather than JAP or US one (which don't have this). It can help to reduce chance of scratching ur cd actually, since ur cd will not be in direct contact with the base.

QUOTE(gundamalpha @ Dec 26 2008, 05:39 PM) Not brand new Wah.. Super Famicom/Nes collection! One of my dream machines from the 90s too! You know when I was a kid, I only had gone through the Famicom era. Never owned any 16 bit monsters. Well, if the time's right. I might get a couple soon Dreamkey is used for online I think.. never use them before My mini SFC/SNES collection My Saturn games remaining I dunno guys, but I kinda felt that Super Famicom games are more polished and better looking compared to Gameboy Advance, which is supposedly more powerful. Maybe developers have gotten lazy. However the ports for all the super mario series were awesome! And Metroid too.. The first ever cartridge I had for the GBA was Wario Advance, and that game ROCKS! |

Found my old original MD cartridges while looking for my stuff in my old cupboard. Nothing to shout about coz only 5 games... haha..
But, that's the only amount of original games that I can afford back in the early to mid 90's, as a young schooling teenager.Some are without casing and manuals as I'm unable to find them.  I still have my Mega Drive 2, but I'm not sure whether it still works because................. I can't find the all important AC Adaptor!!! Any idea where I can buy one? I don't think play-asia has any. |

Yo nizam80, you can get the AC adapter from electronic shops no problem. MD2 uses a more general AC adapter, just make sure the voltage etc. compatible with your MD2

You have a working MD2 also right, bro? Can check it for me if you have the time? For the MD2 it's using 10V, while the older MD1 using 9V (U can see the voltage spec on the bottom of your MD console). If you have a famicom, the adapter will also working with MD and PC-Engine too, as they are about the same (+/-) voltage and are DC. But do not use the NES adapter as it's not DC but AC I believe, so pls don't do this unless you want to fry your adapter (and possibly your console) Bro, the way it is used sounds familiar to me. I have it, but mine is called the Mega Key (i think it's 3rd party). My SSF2 cartridge requires to use it, as the game is from a different region. Yes, I have also Mega Key 2. For console of certain region, u cannot just put the cart inside the console so it serves as an adapter. I'm not sure whether it's only due to the different cart shape, but I heard that some games have a software region lock-out. Also there's a jumper you can set on the Mega Key (to set whether your console JPN, EUR or US), so it can be used on different consoles. This post has been edited by chronims: Jan 11 2009, 07:33 AM |

Chronims, thanks for the valuable information. So, it must be DC type and not AC right, bro? This is the exact adaptor right?
http://cgi.ebay.com.my/SEGA-MEGA-DRIVE-2-A...emZ380077776931 I have a question. What does the "INPUT: AC100V" mean? Does it have to be "AC100V" and not "AC110V"? As for the Mega Key, mine jumper switches at the back of it too. I seem to have peeled of the yellow sticker for the jumper settings on the cart itself (when I was younger). Now I don't know the correct settings for each region.  Thanks for the help. I appreciate it. |

AC100/110V means the voltage on the wall socket.. that's US/JP standard. M'sia uses 220-260V, so you have to be careful on this

Just like Gundamalpha told u, 100V is Japan, 110-120V is US normally, so even for people in US (when they use JPN console) they should use the stepdown converter as the extra 10-20V can cause extra heat. http://cgi.ebay.com.my/SEGA-MEGA-DRIVE-2-A...emZ380077776931 I have a question.

I appreciate it. If u have 100V/ 110-120V adapter you definitely need a stepdown converter, because MY uses 220-240V outage. You can buy this in many electronic/ computer shops. Or you can find asian/ australian/ european MD2 adapter which has an input of 220-240V, so you can just plug straight away. Or you can buy an auto-sensing adapter (3rd party) which can auto adjust 100-240V, which some Ebay sellers from HK has to sell (but dunno whether will last as long the original or not). Yes mine still has the yellow sticker in tact. If u need a reference for this, u can ask me later or u can google urself This post has been edited by chronims: Jan 11 2009, 06:04 PM |

But no games included. -Sega Saturn Victor V - Nice for collecting, price gone down (recommended) -Saturn Jap - If it's a mint ok lah (but quite common version of Saturn), no games included. -Neo geo cd - A bit above the market price, with no games included. -Sega Mega drive - It's a nice NTSC unit (instead of PAL that we normally have in asia), but the price is very high. The bad thing about play-asia for buying the 2nd hand console is, u might not know what to expect on the condition of the item. If you're lucky you get a mint item, but since this is 2nd hand mostly there's something that makes it not new (marking, incomplete). For completeness, luckily they still include the description but for the exact condition of the item unfortunately no description (and the photo's actually a stock one). But still recommend it, if you cannot find it elsewhere with cheaper price though This post has been edited by chronims: Jan 24 2009, 11:54 AM |

Does Game Genie work on a JPN SEGA MegaDrive? I need to bypass MegaDrive Region lock on a JPN MD, but not sure whether Game Genie would work on a JPN MD. Extensive research on Google doesn't really clear doubt....  |

However there games that have region lock chip, so you can't simply plug and play. Games like Sonic 3 (weirdly not & Knuckles though), Gunstar, Contra, PSIV and Shinobi III are region locked, which are possible to bypass through Game Genie, but you need the right codes. The whole region lock thingie made me sold my Mega CD and settled for a CDX since, for some odd reasons, Genesis games are much cheaper than JP MD games.

Hopefully to get a MD that could bypass region lock, and can support 32X & Mega CD, Aiwa Mega CD, Mega Jet seems out of the question for this.. |

The region lock is software based, so you must use specific hardware from specific region to bypass the chip embedded carts. There's an ultimate solution to this (cost close to nothing) and that is adding a region switch to your console. You need to have good soldering skill to do this though. Would you be interested?

You still need to do hardware mod to achieve that. You should look at Nintendo's SNES/SFC and N64, they had the best region lock in history.

No, this gen belongs to 360. Modding still can bypass Wii's region coding, but still no solution for 360.
Too much of current gen talk, let's go back to RETRO! Have been spending time on PS1 RPGs lately, and finished Parasite Eve. Still can't decide which one to play next since most of them I haven't played before |

That shouldn't be a problem since you are playing the NDS version now
Is it true that Neogeo CDZ is getting more expensive these days? Just had a quick browse and caught me by surprise |

Just had a quick browse and caught me by surprise Neo Geo CDZ price fluctuated, it will come down. I am looking to get a back-up unit myself, my current Neo Geo CDZ gila-gila a bit already. |

Since you have been following, may I ask have you come across a NGCD game called Iron Clad? If you did what's the market price now?

QUOTE(gundamalpha @ Jan 30 2009, 09:54 AM) I do believe Game Genie does not have region lock embedded, so it should be safe. However there games that have region lock chip, so you can't simply plug and play. Games like Sonic 3 (weirdly not & Knuckles though), Gunstar, Contra, PSIV and Shinobi III are region locked, which are possible to bypass through Game Genie, but you need the right codes. The whole region lock thingie made me sold my Mega CD and settled for a CDX since, for some odd reasons, Genesis games are much cheaper than JP MD games. No problem playing imported Mega CD games too aint the megadrive cartdige a different shape or something ? |

Mine is a JPN MegaDrive, but i only have JPN games,which is quite pricey compare to the US one. That is why I am trying to bypass the troublesome Region Lock, so i can save more on my collection. Also thinking of adding a MEGA CD and 32X soon. This post has been edited by neogeocdz: Jan 31 2009, 12:30 AM |

Does Mega CD have region lock hardware wise? I know the games can be bypassed through a cart, but not so sure about the hardware itself. Most probably neogeo is getting a JP Mega CD anyway I guess.
And what about 32X? I think it's region locked right? If that's the case JP MD owners would be doomed, since JP 32X games either sucks or overpriced. 3rotor might be able to enlighten us a bit here :here: |

Buy the game (Battle Garegga), beat the game once (don't care how many credits) and watch the superplay and learn why this game is unversally recognized as the shmup with deepest mechanics. Every time you suicide, collect item, bombing and even how rapid you shoot affects the game difficulty
I'm still learning this game every time I play it.Added on January 31, 2009, 7:06 pmI wonder how do you guys maintain your retro consoles Curious because that's what I'm doing right nowThis post has been edited by gundamalpha: Jan 31 2009, 07:06 PM |

Well you need to keep them running for hours once in a while or else the internal batteries (irreplaceable) will die

How u maintain your retro consoles, gundam? any tips... So far i know - keep it away from serious dirt/dust and moisture. - keep the console systems in a dust-free place - keep the games in a tub or protective case/sleeve, they would last longer. - the only things that really ever go bad are the batteries. |

I think I bought it for $80.. can't really remember
I don't really have specific way to keep up the retros, just turn them on for hours once a while to make sure the lens still reading and battery still running. Also keep them out from the sun, especially white/grey consoles |

Didn't know such a thread existed :-O Anyway someone here was asking if you could play MegaCD PAL/JPN games on a US CDX, you can but you need a Pro Datels Pro CDX adapter, there were 2 types, one for a model one genesis and one for the model 2, I am using a model 2 on a US CDX, so far it works on most PAL/JPN imports, I bought this to play Keio Flying Squadron (JPN) cheapest version out there, lol, but fortunately managed to score a mint complete US copy for next to nothing. Regarding the game genie I think you need to enter codes, I personally use the Super Mega Key with the dip switches so I can change between PAL/US/JPN games. Works on my Sega Nomad too. |

It's more likely to be below USD200, but better I put USD250 just to be safe. You have 4 days to decide

Has anyone played any of Capcom's VS series on Saturn? I have a 3rd party 1MB/4MB RAM cartridge, which doesn't seem to work on 4MB mode. I'm really itching to know how does it look and play on Saturn. Yes, you can already play the actual arcade version via emulation, but I get a kick out of playing kick-ass ports on home consoles.

Of course I do play the VS series on Saturn. I'm assuming you are using the earlier model cart where only X-Men VS SF can work. Better get the newer one from PA, it can load every single 4M required game on Saturn

Ah well. Maybe I'll get around to this buying online thing. Until then, it's just garage sales or gamestore browsing for me. Moving on. Ahem, so any chance you also have a Saturn or Dreamcast Twin Stick as well? This thing is the stuff of myth apparently.

I can still appreciate Virtual On even to this day. Played the game throughout the whole of 1997-1998. It's pretty much burned to my retina now. Which is probably why I'm kinda clouded by nostalgia, tech be darned. Oratario Tangram is definitely the better game, but the 1st will always be something special to me.

Finish playing with your GB xandman? Added on February 6, 2009, 4:01 pmI can get the item cheap, but the problem is shipping, as you said it's bulky and heavy I remember someone offered RM100 to get a special model PS1 from Japan for him last time The shipping already cost more than that, and that particular PS1 cost more than RM200 This post has been edited by gundamalpha: Feb 6 2009, 04:01 PM |

I don't have extra since NGCD and NGCDZ use different ones. I know where to get but then might as well get a new unit since it's not that expensive

Seeing you guys got the fake MD and due to compatibility issues, some fake games are readily available and here's my recommendation (from what I've seen in the market):
Contra Hard Corps Castlevania Bloodlines Yu Yu Hakusho Gunstar Heroes Shinobi 3 Sonic & Knuckles |

But when I used the original console, it would play all the carts without problem Thanks bro. I checked on the fake MD2 AC Adaptor and it's current rating is 1.2A, which is 1200mA, right? But, as you mentioned, it still can be used as long as it's AC to DC10V, right? And, may I know how does the converter for the input connector roughly looked like? Coz, I think it may be convenient for me just to buy the converter. I think the adapter can be used with ori MD2 (If it's AC to DC10V), you only need a converter for the input connector (different size) of the adapter. Note that DC9V is used for MD1, while DC10C for MD2. Also note that both MD adapter's current rating is 850mA. |

Current rating.. higher means no harm to the console nor the adapter itself, just make sure the rating isn't lower
I'm quite surprised you haven't found a compatible one nizam May be I should head out to the electronic store sometime, need to buy some stuff |

gundam, thanks. So higher rating is ok, huh.
I'm slightly busy these days. Only manage to visit the electronic store once, and that was a very brief visit as I was in a hurry. But now, since I already have an AC Adaptor from the fake MD2, I probably only need the converter connector as previously mentioned by chronims. |

QUOTE(nizam80 @ Feb 14 2009, 10:42 AM) gundam, thanks. So higher rating is ok, huh. It;s basically a converter to adjust the head size of your adapter. I think your MD2 console should be fine with 1.2mA, but if higher than this I don't really recommend it as it may fry your console. Also after finish playing, better unplug the adapter so it will not become too hot. Hope it's helpful for u. I'm slightly busy these days.

Great collection you have there
Regarding the melting cables, make sure you don't stretch them when you tie them and never ever use rubber band. I noticed cable melting only happen on 3rd party peripherals.. all the ori so far so good. 1 thing I would like to comment though, why get an AES instead of MVS? |

coz AES is something tat i wish to have when i was a kid. it juz to full fill my collection not bcoz of the enhancement of MVS. if i got the change mayb i will get MVS after i get AES. too bad gundamalpha is way too far. if not i will sure get a chance to try on the MVS too.
oh ya regarding the cable thingy...how if i keep it in other box(bigger 1) instead of the ori box, coz mayb the compound is too tight for those controller and adapter. hehe.. is tat a good idea? |

It's not about the enhancement MVS will receive, but it's the pricing of the games. AES games on average cost 5 to 100 times more than MVS, so if it's for the sake of playing games MVS is the way to go.
I haven't had any problem putting consoles and accessories in their original casing NGCDZ can testified that |

how abt the enviroment u keep ur console? is ur precious console all keep in aircon room? any sunlight? feel bad when i saw the cable like melting. |

I think eBay is pretty much your only option.. make sure you get a VGA box instead of cable as the latter does not have sound output

Yes, and I wouldn't switch back to other hook ups after using it except for 2D games. It's really a significant improvement
Added on February 27, 2009, 6:46 pm   Expect even better display on CRT  I wish I could get a 21" CRT, but still comes to nothing after a long long search This post has been edited by gundamalpha: Feb 27 2009, 06:46 PM |

bro ur aspect ratio nt correct,the games ur playing is 4:3 stretched to 16:9 everything will be gemuk. I guess most CRT displays are 4:3 i guess u will not find a 21" CRT as its 16:9 its quite rare to c a 16:9 CRT.

It's 16:10, not 16:9. Quite acceptable IMO, especially playing RPGs

I'm using VGA box, so sound isn't a problem. The VGA box also includes S-Video/Composite out for games that do not support VGA mode.

If the Dreamcast has really been modded, then yes you can play NTSC/U and PAL discs. However, most Dreamcast systems I've seen (or own) are never modded. Back then, I bought a NTSC/J title, and tried to run it on my NTSC/U Dreamcast. I couldn't run it without modding of course. However, you can use a utility disc called Action Replay CDX. After loading the utility, swap out the disc for your game disc, and play! Not all games can be run using Action Replay though. A modchip is still the best way to bypass region lock.

Ok, S4PH and tripleB, thank you for your answers. You have been very helpful. So, in this case, any modded DC will do to play any original DC games from any region?

Unless your DC is modded for something else I'm slightly confused.....because, if a DC is modded to play backup games, can it play original games from other regions also? |

You don't need to mod to play back ups, just depending on the DC's version but I don't know how to differentiate them. I use boot disc for imports, which also require DC's that can play back ups.

Yeah, very hard to find now. I got mine from lik-sang.com. Otherwise you can burn your own boot disc.. Utopia or something. But make sure you only use Utopia on NTSC console, never on PAL because it will display inceorrectly if you do.

QUOTE(S4PH @ Mar 2 2009, 05:13 PM) what game do yo intend to play on ur DC Shenmue? I have not purchased a DC yet. Will try to get by the end of this month, hopefully. I'm thinking of buying and collecting NTSC/UC games for it. As an American DC is quite hard to find locally, that's why I was wondering whether Japanese ones are able to play those NTSC/UC games. Honestly, I didn't know that Dreamcasts are not needed to be modded to play backups. I learned something today. This post has been edited by nizam80: Mar 2 2009, 07:25 PM |

Old is gold, my 1st ever console is Atari with pre installed 8games maybe.
At the generation it seems a good hobby. It was borrow & never return. I have to save angpow money just to get this. Then comes Mirco Genious, my fav game Ninja Gaiden/Ninja Ryūkenden. Cuba wars, slamander, many good games & forgot titles. Again console were borrow & never return. Never owned the Nitendo, as it was too expansive that time, but still like the Ikari that is stuck in my mind. Sega Megadrive, just for mortal kombat, sonic, landstalker , sinobi & many more. Console still have but never touch for long. N64, golden eye, & some CD's invented by HK fellers using CD that recorded a few games inside. about 30games per cd. It's called the Doctor V in order to activate you need a original game & load the CD. Still have & this is a great invention. PS/PS2 - my payback era started when i join Sony Malaysia as a PS promoter in 1996/97. good contacts good game good life. planning to get PSP to load classic such as Contra, Ninja Gaiden & many can't recall title (now is 7am lah) dunno if you ever heard a game called Body Hazard ? i never forget this game, it quite sick & weird. Go & get it. then you know.. Arcade era grow in late 80's - Street fighter 1 (reversal play) Golden Axe 1, & gemini wings, double dragon - abobo... midway 1942,1945,1945x. fuu..
