It can hold all of them with the right sd card.

Post by: Bernie on May 22, 2014, 04:52:23 AM
It can hold ALL of them with even the smalled micro-sd card. A 2 gig card holds everything, with over a gig to spare. This comes with a 2 gig card, loaded up with every game, divided by region and hacks/translations.

I don't want the ED, but before you give it away, can you copy your SD and send me a copy? :) Mine is inadequately loaded, and for some reason I have a hard time finding quality ROMs, and didn't know there were hacks/translations for Huey games! What have I been missing!?

Is it just me or do you guys find that playing a game when you have the actual physical copy is much more satisfying than playing them on the evah-drive ?

Title: Re: Raffle: Turbo EverDrive FULLY LOADED!!
Post by: toymachine78 on May 22, 2014, 08:52:55 AM
True! That's my problem. So many bad ROMs out there. Some of them won't even run on the ED. That's why my ED selection sucks so bad. A lot of the games loaded are bad roms, and its pain in the ass to reload or reconfigure. I have no desktop pc, and my 3yr old fell on my laptop and shattered the display. I have to hook it up to the TV to use it. Gotta love the kiddies! ;)

I looked at that when it first happened. The replacement panel was $149 I think. The thing brand new was just $299, so I didn't think it was worth it

I would like to be included. My GameOfYou flashcard is on the fritz again (third time) likely due to solder joint or part failure (and not due to abuse - it spends almost all its time completely motionless), and I'm not sure I can convince GameOfYou to keep fixing this thing. Seems I got a lemon... It would be nice to have an EverDrive to replace it.

I would feel bad if I won though, considering how much you've helped me out in recent times. You're more than generous.
Yeah, I kinda feel the same actually. How I met Bernie was back in 2008 after he donated $30 and needed tech support on using TurboRip to produce a Dracula X image to work on a Sony PSP. So there's that, then winning a raffle of his for one of the Ziria games, plus also recently giving me 2 days work for something he needed done, took a few hours per day, and paying me for that. So yeah, more than generous. This is hands down the best raffle to come around, but I'm curious as to why he's already willing to give up his TE though... Can't have gotten that much use given how new a product it is.

Yeah, but you're a six year n00b as far as most people are concerned since you have less than 100 posts. You should try to justify your raffle entry worthiness by mentioning meaningful contributions you have made to this forum.

Doing what for 6 years ?? Not much, that's the point. Your "tg16mania" isn't all that evident and watching/lurking is not much of a contribution as others pointed out... Moreover, it looks tacky to suddenly get active for a raffle, one of the best at that, then try to somehow define seniority just by how long your account's been registered, basically hoping that lets you weasal in...
Let's say you were allowed in and you won, you walk away with it, go back to your lurking, well, doesn't that defeat the spirit of the purpose of raffles which is to reward active, long-time/frequent contributors to the forum ?? That wouldn't be fair to the people that keep this place active, interesting, above all, alive... Those that provide services, add content to the forum on a frequent basis, you get the idea... I don't think your post frequency is about to change any time soon and it shouldn't just be because of raffles either. Anyway, that's my 2 cents, and I don't mean to be rude, but you clearly don't meet any seniority standard as ambiguous as that might be.

ok guys, i will kindly bow out of this one. But just for the record i am a long time member here. I'm not a lurker nor was i ever a lurker here. I've been steadily posting (at a slow pace i guess) for the whole time i've been here. I've never been away, i just don't post unless i have something important to contribute. I've dealt with many people here, hopefully some remember me and can vouch for me. Just because i don't make a lot of posts, doesn't mean i'm not a long time member here. I probably post on average a message every couple weeks, and it's been steady like that for years. I read this forum almost every day, and i chime in whenever i can, sometimes its just hard to contribute something unless i feel i have something valid to say. I don't make rambling posts lol except perhaps for this one. Anyways guys, good luck with this, and i still wanna say thanks to Bernie for this great raffle.

I'm still mad at you for not buying TV Sports Baseball. :twisted: I'm a relative noob with diarrhea of the mouth so i guess we're at opposite ends of the spectrum. Next raffle I do will have a dual qualification: must have under 20 posts a year for no less than 5 years, or must have over 700 posts a year for no more than 2 years. Both of our archetypes will be represented.
lol i guess we are at completely opposite ends of the spectrum. Its amazing how many posts u have in 2 years, compared to the amount i have in 6. But like i said, it's not like i went away or stopped posting, i've been here steady even though my post count might not reflect that. If u look through my posts they're pretty evenly spaced throughout the years lol. And i don't think i've ever gone more than a week or two without logging in, and i've completed many successful trades and sales on here too. I guess i just don't post a lot. I guess i have diarrhea of the brain, most of the time i really don't know what to say lol.
About TV Sports Baseball, i wish i would have bought it, but how was i to know? I was a 15yo punk kid at the time, i spent 24.99 on Air Zonk instead, seemed like a better idea at the time since TV Sports Baseball was 79.99. In that thread a while back, we were discussing that someone saw a machine at a video game show that was playing tv sports baseball, so we know at least a prototype exists. Also, i remember a while back there was a thread on here discussing a game lot that had a prototype of tv sports baseball in it, that had a white cover with writing on it, in that same penmanship as those duo cd prototypes. So it's quite possible the game rom itself was completed, but who knows if it was ever sold. Maybe it was pulled off the shelves. I do remember there being a retail box, unless it was just a display box, who knows.
And getting back to the subject of the tread: I was thinking, since only 1 person will win this, and since i was disqualified for my abnormally low post-per-year count, the rest of us should do a group buy.

Bernie never posted about your post count, he just mentioned to play nice and....MMMMmmm waflles :dance:
As far as a group buy, threads pop up or you could start a new one for an interest check. 10 people/orders is what you need for the discount.

About TV Sports Baseball..... who knows if it was ever sold.
I know it wasn't.
yes, but maybe it was attempted to be sold. Maybe the game itself never made it to stores, all i know is that i remember the box being there and it had the price on it and it was mixed with the other turbo grafx games. It might have been just the box for pre-orders perhaps? and then maybe the plug was pulled on it. The game itself was completed so at least a prototype cart exists, would be so sweet if someone finds it, that would be super cool to have and to play.
This has to be the best picture i've ever seen on this forum in my illustrious 6 years here lol. mmmmmmmmm waffles! I've never wanted waffles more than i want them at this moment.

Bernie should open this up to senior members, that is, folks who joined 6+ years ago.
Thank you.
It took 3 years for me to get approved! :P
Bernie should open this up to 6+ years and post count <100.
But then tg16manaic might be disqualified, because at the rate he's posting, he'll be over 100 soon. :clap: :P
By the way Bernie, I hadn't posted before now concerning this amazing raffle of yours, but +100 Turbo karma to you! Don't sign me up because I already have most of the HuCARD games that I want, and besides, there are already too many awesome guys signed up, like BlueBMW, _joshuaTurbo, Keith Courage, Sparky, etc... to whom I would rather defer. :wink:

Hear hear! As nice as as it would be to win this raffle, I'd much rather see it go to one of the *real* senior members, which is another reason I opted out. Good luck, guys!

You know, there's a whole other angle on this we may have been missing... Senior members MIGHT really be our few members over 55 years of age. Perhaps some of you have been ignoring the TRUE seniors in this community, who are... er...
Do we have any seniors, here?

That's true. I recall one fellow (he was here briefly) who said (or hinted) at being a generation older...he was playing Pong as a teenager, or something.
Anyway, the raffle should go to someone who has never won anything (or nothing recently, at least). I've been lucky enough to win some stuff recently, so I wish other folks good luck.

Nice all 'round. You could have chosen a winner in a non-random fashion and I think most of us would have been pleased with the results regardless...
Thanks for doing this Bernie!

Not that it's not a great raffle or to diminish Bernie's generosity, but I don't know if it can beat out the Bonk 3 or TurboDuo raffles.
Oh wow, I never would've guessed somebody raffled a whole Turbo Duo out (sans any blow dryer "mods" preferably)! Before my time. To be honest, a Turbo Everdrive is worth way more to me than the mediocre "Bonk III" I bought way back when, but yeah, in the face of eBay and what big spenders are willing to pay for it, point taken. You can get 2-3 TE's for it or whatever nowadays.

For stupid expensive games like Magical Chase and Bonk III the Turbo EverDrive will be my preferred way to experience them. I am comfortable with knowing I probably won't ever get them. And besides JB Harold I have about all I want form the US library.

Yeah, BlueBMW's Turbo Duo raffle, and Sparky's Bonk III raffle take the cake! Now, someone do a Beyond Shadowgate raffle..... :)

Okay the Turbo Everdrive made it home. I need to document the new game room on my days off anyway so I might as well make a mention of it in the video. Stay tuned.

The AES is the only Neo Geo I have at the moment. Once I can afford it I will pick up a CMVS since obviously the AES market went all retarded.
Yeah I totally jumped in on the AES wagon to late. Which is why all I have us the system and one game lol
I completly switched to the MVS. The major problem is ensuring I don't get duped into buying bootleg. Which the Neo Cominity is Greta at helping learn what to look for and has a wealth of information to compair chip sets and boards.
