Having lurked on neo hyphen geo dot com for 20 years my understanding of your reputation is that you're best known for posting pictures of your private parts in threads that didn't really call for...

I'm with you, I'm still having fun with those four consoles too. I wonder how the 3DS and Wii U will hold up long term. The Wii U is already showing signs of decline with Mario Maker no longer...

Are there any tech demos or homebrews that use interlaced mode for high res video or gameplay? It would be cool to see an MD game running in native 320x448.

Stuff like this is why my interest has been waning in modern consoles (and tech in general), it's like with each new generation there are more restrictions on what you can do with hardware and...

You can twist my words if you want, the point is the same. If I'm in a disaster area and need anything, the person most likely to supply it will be someone motivated by greed, because they have the...

Yes. Of course. Without an increase in price the quantity available would soon drop to zero. That scalping fucker has guaranteed you will still be able to buy some water, even if it costs a little...

LOL!! I remember that with the Twinkies. It's just human nature to buy something at one price with the expectation of selling it to someone else at a higher price. People do it every day with games,...

Not only do I find it ethical, I think it should be encouraged.

Where do you invest your money? If you plan on retiring at some point I bet your strategy consists of something along the lines of...

Gryson, thanks for doing all this research. I still think the Saturn as released was a horrible idea but it makes more sense now if they were already worrying by late '93. Just goes to show there's a...

You may not like what he did but I see nothing unethical about it. It's not his fault he saw an opportunity and jumped on it. I blame the stores for not raising prices in response to an increase in...

I think the prices will go back down. Electronics are not a good long term investment because they get worse with age. I give it another decade for components to start wearing out and nostalgia to...

Sonic 2 2-player does not look like 30 fps to me, it runs just as smoothly as 1p mode.

I was hoping someone would ask that. I've got this great idea for a platform game on the Mega Drive, it's going to be similar to High Seas Havoc except a lot faster. There will be lots of underwater...

I guess that's possible but if it really was a mix-up on the part of PayPal, wouldn't the first thing to do be to contact PayPal HQ in the US or at least the international offices in Singapore? I've...

All I can guess is that at some point in the process he needed to borrow money and he got a loan from some unsavory characters, maybe not the actual mafia but the kind of guys who don't take "soon"...

Thanks - I appreciate that you put in those section breaks so it's easy to get to specific parts. There's only so long I can listen to a guy claim to be persecuted by the Chinese mafia before I have...

I would totally go to that. But I would probably get kicked out within minutes for trying to get Mai to say "me bouncy!" and pose for selfies with me.

Back in the day the best I had for the Genesis was the little book that came with the Game Genie. I got Nintendo Power for years and sometimes it would have decent tips, but really it was just a way...

Funny you mention that. At the time I joked that someone should make a videogame based on the movie, like you play as a penguin on an ice float and the final boss is Al Gore in his private jet. I...

Oh wow, I never noticed that about Ristar/NiGHTS.

But yeah, it is interesting how in the early 90s there was a bunch of eco-friendly stuff and then it kind of went away. I think Sega could do very...

I don't believe it's possible for PayPal to hold money for that long. At least, I've never heard of a single documented case of that happening. If they tried that they would get sued in no time. If...

If the account was frozen then yes PayPal would be holding the money and it wouldn't go to anyone. I didn't think they could hold anything longer than 180 days though.

I think the problem for Fonzie is that since he's taking so long to deliver on the games, PayPal is considering these to be pre-sales and that raises all sorts of red flags for them. You have 20 days...

What were you playing back then that was better? Did you have a Neo Geo?

Maybe I would, if not for the fact that this situation was the inevitable result of his business practices. It's amazing WaterMelon Games lasted as long as it did. Even something so simple as...
