I'm interested in getting drakengard 3. I havent played 1 or 2, but i really enjoyed Nier (havent beaten it yet)

Nier really is the best of the games in my opinion, and quite overlooked.  I'm hoping Drakengard 3 continues in a similar vein to that.  The soundtrack for Drakengard 3 is done by Emi Evans again so that alone had my attention.

I bought some 26-22 gauge telephone butt connectors for the composite/stereo cord I made for my TG-16. I had everything else I needed except for something to use with the exp connection.

That Starwinder game is pretty what/huh, my friendo threw it at me some time ago and sarcastically said "It's really good." :3

00 steel wool, 3 pack of brushes, steel, brass, plastic. I pulled this out of the storage crate with the cd deck still attached. Found the cords and a controller. Fired it up with a near destroyed Sonic CD and it played like a dream. It looks like shit right now but I'm happy it works. I decide I need to clean her up a bit. I find this inside :-( That's why the brushes and wool. After I spruce her up I'll show the finished product.

I just picked up one of these from a local retro gaming store for a steal:


I've owned one since back when they were new, but I've thrown it so many times, destroying it, then re-assembling it, sometimes with scotch tape and/or superglue, that I decided it was finally time to retire it and get a new one.

(The above pic is not mine.  I'm too lazy to post an actual pic of it.)

^^ I have owned an Ascii SNES pad since the early 90s. They're a solid pad.

I just picked up one of these from a local retro gaming store for a steal:

I love those pads. I usually put the regular SNES purple buttons in there though because I like how two of them are concave. Not sure why as I use the regular SNES pad that the colored buttons went into from time to time and I have no issue with 100% convex buttons. The parts are pretty much 100% identical to the original SNES pad with interchangeable parts and all. I usually despise 3rd party d-pads and buttons but this doesn't really use 3rd party parts, so #winning!  (LOLOL remember that neither do I).

Don't bother with the shielding on the Genesis, its not needed. You will just be wasting your time trying to get all that rust off.
