is that controler for the original famicom or the NES ?

Are you asking me?

If so then the answer is neither.
It's a Taito plug'n play with ten games on board, principally Space Invaders, Qix and Bubble Bobble.
Unfortunately the games have some dodgy sound here and there, like the music in Bubble Bobble is a bit off.
I'm wondering if it can be hacked...

Might be possible to squeeze a raspberry pi in there with a bit of work.

I meant the arkanoid controler

I've come to the conclusion that I'll probably never be able to live the dream and buy a Time Crisis cabinet.

So I just bought these

The Last Bandit

What on earth are you going to do with those relics ?

BGOllie

latest addition to my MSX collection : some penguin love...

Played this for hours and hours when I was a kid.

Also swapped an old guitar I never used for a boxed, chip-modded xbox with about 10 games. Going to convert this into a mame box this weekend ... and build a cabinet around it.

Put them on a shelf and cry as to what could have been

Isn't it obvious, he's going to wire it into his existing cab and get some Time Crisis in

I mainly do oils and acrylics, although I have been known to do posters from time to time. It hard competing against a lot of frames coming in from China though, mine are all hand crafted with love and care. I have this one hanging on the kitchen wall.

I apologise if this is off topic mate but what are your rates?

Heh, he meant that in jest, he's already been roped into this project...

At the moment I'm trying to gather parts to do this.

Perhaps down the line when The Last Bandit's Jammacon is ready, I'll be able to whip the PS2 into a cab and use it in conjunction with the real Namco gun and pedal.

For now though the aim is just to get them working with the PS2. As much as I love the ports, it's just not the same without a pink gun going CLACK CLACK CLACK

Optimus Prime

Ive a blue one, cant beat that recoil!

CathalDublin

Ive a new in box universal ps2 guncon if its any use to you, something along the lines of this

On a bit of a lightgun buzz at the moment, just bought this too.

It's a bit of a silly, over the top peripheral but I'm quite interested in seeing how it handles the whole scope aspect of Silent Scope.

When did the price of Chrono Trigger DS go up so much? Last time I looked (which was a while ago, I'll admit!) a PAL copy was about 20. Now you're talking double or more.

Wanted to get a copy for my sister for Christmas and got some shock when I saw the price increase.

Thankfully the US version can be had for about half the price. Just got two

Pokewalker inbound from Portugal of all places. Means that the free boxed copy of Soul Silver a nice lady packed in with Steel Battalion is now complete, with outer box and all.
Handy!

Found this in the charity shop right beside my work for €2 ... just had to get it. Good game

It is, and even then Coast 2 Coast is better, one of my favourite all time games.

CathalDublin

Have that on "backup" myself!

Atavan-Halen

Outrun 2 is great fun alright!

Took a trip to santry to get road rage 3 and picked up a few other bits while I was there.

Retr0gamer

Yep. Spotted it there and I just knew I had to have it.

I must pick up Road Race 3 myself.
Did any of the Battle Gear games get a euro release?

Yep, only one of them got released as Tokyo road race over here. I think it's battle gear 2.
