Can you please live in a state of fear that doesn’t destroy perfectly good main boards with garbage just because you’re too cheap or poor to buy real games? There will always been a supply of junk to plug into a Neo but the boards are OOP.

I've got it plugged into a boot MV-1C. The "Gobit", or whatever it's called. Not as many as in previous years but there's still a few of those bootleg boards available in this neck of the woods.

This thing has been played solidly for quite a stretch of time, especially by the kids and their mates. And I mean heavy use. No issues.

Either you didn't get it or you haven't watched it at all. It parodies pretty much every lie and trolling of mindless pissed off Krikkz' fans out there.

I get it, and I have no horse in this race, but that video is just lame. It's a bad video, regardless of the truth or whatever.

Yeah, but you mean bad like how all gaming related videos and podcasts are basically the worst shit ever filmed, not that this particular video was bad in some unique way, right?

When I volunteered for cable access in the early 90s, all editing together city counsel meetings on SVHS in a library basement and all that, I never dreamed that what we were making would be more professional than videos in 2017 that get 200k views despite them %40 being mic noise and shadows...

I would rather watch public access cable over the f*ckin youtube gaming shit.

Its all cringe-city, but people are making money off of it.

It's garbage.

I feel like this is the guy that those chuckleheads Opie and Anthony got in trouble for making fun of. .  . among other things.   
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

If no one complains about anything and is complacent, that's how shit gets bad.

Yeah thanks for clarifying, zeta. I was just hoping that there would be a mature legitimizing video breaking everything down, rather than what they put out which to me seems unnecessary and pouty.

Goodjob comprehending poorly as always in your haste to do you, lol.   

A bunch of knobs (us) sitting realtalking without an act isn't the same as what I just made fun of.

Nobody is being a tryhard piece of shit.

AFAIK Josh isn't monetizing us rambling, either. 

If he is, I want my cut of the 45 cents he probably makes off the 9.5 viewers.
