teh "what did you buy today"-thread

A new adapter for my model 1 Sega Genesis actually, haha. When I got it, it came with a third party adapter with two cords, one for the SNES, one for the model 1 Genesis and NES. Well the NES/Genesis bit broke off at the wire (very shoddy wiring job, extremely light and flimsy), and so I figured it'd be more beneficial to have an actual Sega adapter.

Been on a buying halt as I was currently buying a new house. But all moved in and picked up a real classic for my housewarming present to myself





I know the board is toasted, so I'm on the lookout...cabinet is in good cosmetic shape tho

Congrats - Xexex is an awesome game. Just make sure you have a TV / Screen that can handle the oddball sync rate. And watch out for any leakage on the Sound custom (in your picture in the upper left side of the PCB) since these damn customs tend to fail  .

Thanks Dingsbums yeah It's going in my New Astro City cab so shouldn't be a problem with the syncing.
Also very jealous here with all those minty spine card games

@Galam... What is Weather Report? A band?

[bob]

^^Yes, fantastic fusion jazz type.
If you ever look into them, I suggest the album "Mr. Gone".

[toymachine78]

Cool. Just might have to check them out :-)

160 Euro  -  It was the cheapest I could find (complete at least).

2 things that are not so great  :

1. I don't have a PC-FX yet (but that shouldn't be a problem).
2. My Duo-R doesn't read CD's anymore  .
    I replaced the laser, cleaned & greased the rails & gears, adjusted the pots,
    replaced all caps = but nothing  .The weird thing is - some CD's work flawless,   
    some will read but stop at some point & others don't work at all = =

BoFIV was a late Christmas gift

My cheap eBay purchases are trickling in. Got a new Bonks Adventure to replace the one that died, and also received Deep Blue, Sidearms Special and Art of Fighting.
