Did you know the HuC6280 was nicknamed, "Dr. Pepper"?

Awesome stuff.

Post by: SignOfZeta on July 07, 2006, 09:05:05 AM: I thought I saw, years ago, part of PCE Maniax where they stacked a Mega Drive with every peripheral they could find to see if they all worked together. A PAR, an Xband, a Game Genie, Mega CD, a 32X, Sega Channel, Sonic and Knuckes with Sonic 3, etc until it was 2 feet high. It did work in fact, and I'm amazed the power cables didn't melt from all the current.

Maybe this was someone elses site.

I've seen similar pics before, but I don't think I've ever seen a setup with quite that many stacked carts.
