Site Feedback / Missing Games in Database

« on: April 25, 2016, 03:56:30 am »

Hello,

I am sorry if this has been mentioned before.

I decided to add in some games I purchased recently and upon entering them I discovered that a number of games I input previously had just up and vanished. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Site Feedback / Changing usernames

Is there a way to change usernames? If not, can we add this feature? I want to obviously change my name, but I don't want to put in over 1k in games again

Classic Video Games / Retro game replacement labels

« on: January 21, 2015, 01:56:23 am »

So I have decided to start picking up crappy looking copies of higher end games (if they're cheap enough) and slapping on replacement labels.  I've been using an online vendor and his work is pretty flawless so far.  Not point on, but close enough.  They're for personal use and I was wondering what kind of experience everyone else has had.

Here's an example of the work I've had done for me online.

Classic Video Games / Problem with SNES cart

« on: August 31, 2014, 09:44:26 am »

So I have a copy of yoshi's island on the snes and it will only play the sound when I start it up.  My system is in great shape so it's definitely not that.  The pins on the games are nearly perfect and the board looks great.  Any idea what the issues could be?

Modern Video Games / Projected Valuable/Rare Titles

« on: January 17, 2014, 08:22:51 am »

Ive recently started piking up cheaper current gen games that I believe will be harder to find in the next few years.  What games do you think will be rare for the ps3, wii, and 360.  Please put the name, a reason you believe. Will be rare, and the amount of copies sold.

Afrika PS3
This game is essentially Pokemon Snap in the safari. Based on its low sales but fairly interesting gameplay I believe this game is not on a lot of people's radar at this time.

Sold 104,000 copies in the US and 200,000 global


Please stay on topic and actually give examples

Hardware and Tech / Vectrex Arcade System has White Dot

« on: January 14, 2014, 11:42:26 am »

I have a Vectrex Arcade system that has the dreaded 'White dot". I was wondering if anyone knew where I could take it to get fixed.  I'd rather not kill myself trying to do it haha! Would a tv repair shop or computer tech work?

Classic Video Games / Atari 2600 question

« on: July 17, 2013, 03:28:39 pm »

I recently purchased a 2600 with 4 games, 2 paddles, and all the hook ups in fantastic condition for $20.  As part of the deal the guy threw in toe jam earl, cyber sled, and a videostack Game Center. 

How much is the Game Center worth because I also have the box and instructions paper with it?  The box is a little beat up and has tape on it.  The only thing I see that's similar on eBay is going or $160.  The model number is Vgc-50.

General / Looking for replacement case and manual

« on: July 12, 2012, 11:48:06 pm »

Does anyone know where I can find a replacement case (Art Sleeve) and manual for my copy of .hack quarantine?  I've been looking for months and the only thing I have found is an over priced listing on ebay.
