Title: After 24 years of ownership it's finally time to say goodby.
Post by: jelloslug on January 26, 2014, 06:00:31 AM
I have gotten hundreds and hundreds of hours of great memories but it's time to let go of the AV cables that came with the CD-ROM.  The left channel just does not work anymore no matter how much I bend it.....

Farewell my sweet cables, it's time to sleep now. :cry:

Noooooo! Jello, don't do it. We have so many talented techs here.. get in touch with thesteve, Keith courage, turbokan, chops, or fenix. I'm sure they can fix the cables!

They have moved on to the sarcophagus that is the TG-16 CD-ROM carrying case. I have moved past the grieving stage and have fallen back on my trusty TurboBooster-Plus AV cables.

The wires could be re-purposed for some S&M action.  Whipping or bed post tying are just two of the fun things you can do.

Bonus points if either you or your partner are dressed up in the Bonk CES outfit.

My condolences, good sir,

I remember my NES AC power cord passed on after 16 years of dutiful operation. It's last game was Bionic Commando.

After 24 years of ownership it's finally time to say goodbye to the crappy composite video......

And now it's time to upgrade to RGB  :D

I have been considering it.  I'm sure I could make it output in some form that my tv could read that is better than composite.
