    A local here in Columbus did the same thing a few months ago. It's a six button stick with the start and home buttons hidden under the cartage gate. He showed it off at the last Seasons Beatings. #oddities

    Love it, but do you have to blow in it to use ultras and specials? Does it use Game Genie? These things are important to consider in an arcade stick. #oddities

    @Muzzled: If you're talking about the way the end buttons curve downward the farther right you go, that's the Astro City cab setup, used primarily by Hori, rather than the Viewlix setup, which MadCatz mimics, where the right most button columns are parallel.

    So this stick is probably using a modified Astro City panel or a Hori board. Leet points go to Astro City panel usage. #oddities

    In reply to Yahoo: NES, Dreamcast Best Toys Of All Time
    For video games, the NES was the child learning to walk; the Dreamcast was an older child learning to ride a bicycle. In that way they were "firsts", despite all the memorable (and perhaps better) games put out on the early to mid-90s systems.

    Both the NES and Dreamcast have a naivete about them... "Entertainment System" sounds golly-gee quaint today, and the "Dreamcast" reminds one of fluffy clouds and pastel spirals, horrendous voice-overs, fuzzy polygons, and cheesy pop soundtracks.

    Gaming entered middle school with the introduction of the PS2, and became kind of a dick. #nintendo

    In reply to Yahoo: NES, Dreamcast Best Toys Of All Time
    That's a damn hard choice between the two...obviously the NES had the larger library and the best NES games are at least arguably better than the best Dreamcast games, but I felt like the DC put out better games at a more consistent rate. For every Super Mario 3 we had dozens of awful titles.

    Hard to really compare the two as they were more than a decade apart. It's not apples and tacos, but it may be apples and oranges.

    If I could pick any old system, I wouldn't mind getting in some Star Raiders on the Atari 5200 one more time...as long as the controllers lasted longer than 6 months for a change. #nintendo
