Acidmods Official [Post pics of your retro consoles] Thread

[IndyChav]

Well every other board has a thread like this so why should here be any different?

So get posting. I want to see YOUR Retro

[bacteria]

You will get lots of "Here's my SNES / N64 / PS1 / etc" not systems people don't know about. A simple Google "images" search will show lots of retro console pics. How about pics of systems and games (pics from TV screens, etc) of what old systems did (pre Atari 2600 for example). That could be interesting! 

Why is this a sticky? Because a moderator started the topic? Normally, threads are made stickies when they are mega interesting or key, not on a whim. 

[*FuFa]

dont do that bacteria, acidmods is turning into dictatorship land, speak out against the global/admins and you will get smacked very hard with the ban hammer 

Not really, but let's get back to topic.

Here's mine : D

Just kidding, I got the usual retrostuff excluding NES,SNES, and the other fancy ones. : ( not everyone has alot of money.

Rebellion will not be tolerated o_O

But seriously it's mostly because every other board has them and it does ted to get a lot of attention, post pics of what you want ppl to see about your retro.

Next time if you want to voice your poinion.... dont ! o_O

This thread is sticky cause all the Subforums have an Official Post Your pics of this or that thread.  It's stickied cause it's the only one we want.

Indeed. The forum here is very weak anyway. I'm actually not bothered if I get banned here or not, if anyone wants to ban me, go ahead, that will give me a good excuse to leave; there are plenty of other sites out there. That will just mean one more decent member leaving, which this site can't afford to do. I post honestly and give best advice and project guidance to people as I can (I have had a few PM's from people wanting help so far), if you want me to go I won't put up a fight, however I am happy to stay and contribute as best I can.

What's this, "dictatorship land"?

Next time if you want to voice your poinion.... dont ! o_O

No, I will voice opinions, this is a forum after all.

That's fine. Everyone knows about the 1980's and 1990's popular systems, it would be nice to see the systems and screenshots of games which flopped in this period, and the 1960's and 1970's systems, which people don't know much about. (yes, there were some systems in the 1960's, Oddessey was one I think). It would also be good to know the strengths and weaknesses of these flopped / early systems.

This thread is sticky cause all the Subforums have an Official Post Your pics of this or that thread.  It's stickied cause it's the only one we want.

Fair enough, let's make it a good and worthwhile sticky.

Then why dont we delete all this crap and get Craker to start the thread off with a bang.

Why would you want to delete it? I mean it's some sort of a discussion after all... also I already posted the best video game ever : D

*FuFa - Isn't that one of the c.1950's/early 1960's games that people looking after mainframes made when they were bored on night-shifts? They also made Space Wars I believe too, which was the first game (excluding text only "adventure" games), using that type of screen in your pic.


Anyway, on retro stuff I have, I have 3 x SNES (32 games so far), 5 x N64 (about 80 games), 3 x GBA, 1 x GP2x, 1 x NDS, 1 x MegaDrive (2 games). I have had others in the past, Intellivision, Atari 2600, Vectrex, Pong (1975, when it first came out as a home system). I also have various Nintendo Game & Watch; old and mostly rare: Parachute (and a mini one too), Juggler, Snoopy Tennis (x2), Donkey Kong Jr (mini one) and a very rare one - Snoopy Panorama, which has a flip-up screen and is in colour.

I have 3 SNES's as I want one for the lounge, one for my current major project and a spare incase I fry it; I got a load of N64's for about £3 each, so a good deal - again, one for my current project (and spares if I need them). http://forums.benheck.com/viewtopic.php?t=23137&sid=ce62e583a8380b388649e40e984a82c1

This is going to be a multi-console retro portable system, supporting N64, SNES, MegaDrive, plug 'n' play, and hopefully PSone and GameCube. I may also do SMS for the sake of it too. No-one else has managed to make a multi interchangeable/swappable system before to my knowledge, certainly it hasn't been reported on BenHeck, although it has been talked about before for a while without fruition. This project is pretty retro!

Yes it is, it was the first real video game, it was simply called "Tennis" and yep, the same dude also made Space Wars. Sure was awesome time back then.

[bacteria]

Tennis - interesting, looks more like a ground missile trying to intercept a rocket!

lol i think its a side view of it but the rocket idea is fun.. would be a great game even by todays standards

[Chipsoft]

I have a retro pong console:



but it doesnt work 100%

(srry for my crappy english )

[sprocketme2]

I need pics of the whole thing put together but here are the insides. This project took several months.




all the face buttons work, removable sd card, lcd screen/window.

in second revision i need to add usb port, complete internal sd card, better window cuttout, and hold switch, and the ability to switch battery without a opening up the case.

[gavie]

Nice!
But if you need to replace/charge batteries, do you have to open the thing up?
And why not open a new thread about this :P

[MARIOPARTY53]

well lol, I got this at the game store, 10 bucks! and its box

[!damage!]

that SNES controller is actually a bootleg

[VoX]

lol, Yeah, now that you mention it.

[Timmy]

yeah the official ones have coloured buttons

X=Blue
Y=Green
A=Red
B=Yellow

[VoX]

I used be very good at knowing which Yu-Gi-Oh cards where fake or not. On topic: That is why you got it cheap, because it is fake and maybe because it is 16 years old

[Assassin_Bean]

yeah the official ones have coloured buttons

X=Blue
Y=Green
A=Red
B=Yellow

Actually, that's the PAL version.  The US versions have the gray X/Y buttons and the purple A/B buttons.

[IndyChav]

It's okay Aussies Uk is PAL too XD

[Timmy]

yeah the ntsc ones are just plain lame and bland

[MARIOPARTY53]

I have 3 of those controllers, alll the same
