I love movies, I love comics, I love writing, and I love cooking. Oh, and I love video games—seriously. I love playing them, and I love collecting them. I was a PC gamer only in the DOS/Win 3.1 days up until XP, and then I slowly started transitioning to being a mainly console player since the PS3. I collect for most systems from Gen 3 and up. (Though I do have some Atari 2600 games and a system.) I built my own arcade cabinet back in 2010 so my kids could experience arcade games. I still haven’t totally finished it, but it’s 95% where it needed to be, and, well, I got lazy.

Disc rot. It’s a real thing

They’re obviously passing a message along to find the parents of the puppies that have been kidnapped.

Do you have a store to buy older products? Or are they permanently sold out?

I don’t want to say “it gets better”, because I still hurt from the emotional damage of my divorce, but I met someone who loves me in a way I never had before and we are an amazing pair. Yeah, she’s broken, too, by her past, but we’re both patient and loving and accepting. Don’t put time limits on your healing; that’s the advice I give to you. If you need someone to talk to, hit me up.

I just need it to be understood that I upvoted for making the rhyme, not for the content of the rhyme.

Well now Green Day will forever be associated with cat massages in my mind…

It replaces the optical drive. Games images run off an SD card. There’s a menu that’ll pop up and you select your game from there.

Yeah, I know exactly what you are talking about! I like using my actual systems and controllers, too. Right now I have my older systems hooked up to a CRT and a Retrotink 5x pro going to my main TV.

That’s what GDemu is. A GigaDisc Emulator. Clones on AliExpress work just fine, btw.

He used to appear on TV between shows, I believe his name was “a Mac”. I do recall he would often tell people how easy he is, especially compared to his friend. I suppose this is what people did before Tinder…

I just saw your post. DM if you want to talk. We may both be feeling like discarded unlovables, but I don’t believe either of us truly are.

Oh, she's honestly really great, we both joke with each other. But I'm not telling her how final I'm feeling. That's not on her.
