I bet it's better on the batteris than the Game Gear was.
Argh... what was that? 6 AA in like 4-5 hours? But one could play it under the blanket and hide from checking parents..... 4 hours of Sonic sure were worth the 2 weeks of allowance invested in batteries.
I was smarter than you guys, I used my Genesis AC adapter which some of us know to be compatible with the Game Gear. Never got enough Sonic 2, even now I'm eagerly waiting for that Sonic 2 HD fan project
It's so true. With wireless devices, you can feel the electromagnetism in the air all around you. That HDTV signal is literally going through your body as it emanates from the base station. It's a palpable feeling. I have read of studies that attempt to link wireless radiation with mood disorders. Personally I feel quite calmer when the devices in the house are turned off. It's like a high-pitched whining is gone from my central cortex.
woa that's totally an the wrong comment.
I wanted to say that the game gear's battery life was more like 4.5 minutes, not hours.
ALso, this thing is neat, but does the CD skip?
the above post is a totally unrelated reply to another post, crazy browser glitch.. sorry. :)
Hmm, a box from the credit cards?
Or seconded without a diamond core, for the pleasure of joy!
Hehe, sounds just as expected (without expected something).
WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?!
failed haiku?
failed translate.google?
Or just plain fail.
If you read his older comments, you'll find that he abruptly changed from being able to speak intelligibly to writing random stupid stuff. Seems a little odd.
he's probably writing from his Apple Newton on a really bad day...
ben heck look out
seriously, cause if ben gets hits with that he would DIE
Sega really should have done a dreamcast portable. It's graphics can keep up with a PSP and for once they can focus on one product at a time!
Man I haven't seen that startup sequence in a long time.
Good memories... good memories...
9/9/99, what a great day.
videos busted...
Does anybody else thinks this guy sounds a bit like Milton, from "Space Office"?
Nice work, but I bet Ben Heck could take that base mod and make it look much nicer and be easier to hold. However, i give props to the guy who did this!
Bah. Been there, done that.
Go find a Treamcast. Yes, that's with a 'T'.
I want to build one of these. I keep thinking of cool ways to mod my Dreamcast, but I'm way too lazy.
Dang, thats some crazy modding. The dreamcast had some nice games, like power stone.
