Hey JC, you're old-fashioned. *bwahahahahaha* Ain't I funny? ;D
I'd like it if someone found a possibility to connect a Famicom to the net and post from there. :D

No no... the Famicom uses rectangular cartridges and teh interwebs is a series of tubes, they're totally incompatible. The carts would get stuck in teh tubes, preventing you from getting important porn or eBay purchases ;D
Well... that has me convinced. ;D
Posting from my Wii.
(In other words, I just spent $5.00 on a crippled version of Opera and I'm trying to convince myself it was worth it :D)

I got the Internet Channel when it was free :P
Me too. :P
Bah- About a month ago, I could have posted from my dreamcast.
TV in room with all of the things I need just broke somehow.
EDIT- Editing from Mac
Hey hey! I'm posting this from my smurf blue DSi!
The browser is a lot better than I expected it to be. I'm finding it to be much less annoying than the Wii web browser.

That was an epic win...

Right now I'm posting on my computer...IT'S MOAR THAN A PC
POSTING FROM MY A MONITOR PLUGGED INTO MY CAT'S MOUTH
Well... I've posted here on my ipod Touch.
Wii
Posting this from my sexy, new Jet Black DSi! This browser is nice because it has two screens, which are both utilized nicely. I like it. ;D
:)Posting this from my Dsi.
got to love the psp for its widescreen browser!

:P
What are those led's on your ds?
Power and wireless indicators?
I have a DSi too!
Get Retro Game Challenge. NOW.
Funny you should mention RGC, I bought it about 2 days before I got my DSi in the mail.
Isn't it awesome?!
:DDDD
RGC=133337
Notice how I used more than two 3's.
Have you heard of the sequel?
Yeah, but I don't know much about it. I wonder if/when they're planning on localizing it, though?
There's something about the game that is really fun. It's different than playing games on an emulator, that's for sure. I kind of enjoy flipping through the manuals/magazines and stuff. :)
Yeah. It makes me wish I was born 20 years earlier. Retro Game Challenge is the era I should've grown up in. Especially since arcades are a myth in my area. :(
I feel the same way. Ever since the technological explosion known as the Internet, games haven't been the same. In those days you had to call a number, ask a friend, or buy a magazine to learn all of the tricks. Even if something went wrong with a game or you needed a repair you couldn't just look it up on their official site (although that is convenient). Odd as it is, that inconvenience really appeals to me.
There used to be an arcade at my local mall, but it either ran out of business or was bought out. All I know is that it's replaced by the dumbest store ever now, and I rage every time I look at it. There's still Chuck E. Cheese, but... well, it's Chuck E. Cheese.
I guess I'm just jealous of people that grew up in the 80's, but then again I am thankful for my youth. :P
I'm also the only person I know in real life who actually appreciates classic games. I think one of my classmates might, somewhat. But classic games are looked down on by many people. I was actually berated for playing Pac-Man online at lunch one time. That's depressing.
Sometimes I wish some kind of EM pulse would wipe out all consoles made after the 4th generation. I'd be laughing to no end at all those people with their precious Halo 3 or their hoty-toity 3D graphics.
Also, I give it until tomorrow before the last few posts in this thread get moved.
Well, I still enjoy the games of today, but it's a sad fact that many "gamers" these days don't appreciate games that started it all. This topic did indeed get derailed, though I think it could actually benefit from its own thread.

Nah, man. Whenever your mom dragged you along to the grocery store, you'd just grab the magazine from the rack and read it while she shops ;D
I love the "Classified" section in old NP magazines :P Every cheat site needs to be like that, or it isn't internet worthy
isn't it the truth though? :D i always used to do that. I'd also look at all the goosebumps books as i was really in to them at the time. i still have like 50 or so. :S
What the world needs is a Retro Rennaissance.

Yeah.
That's true. I experienced it first hand and it was nice in retrospective.
Back in the day I used to bombard Nintendo with letters and they always replied pretty fast. Then I wanted to ask stuff about gaming in the US, but naturally, Nintendo of Europe couldn't/wouldn't tell me anything about it, so I wrote letters to Nintendo, Midway, Square in the USA. I had to wait weeks for answers, but when the letters from America arrived in my mailbox, MAN was I happy. :D
Today you just write mails or fill out support forms. :-\ Not really exciting any more.

Or as fast by mail. Even by email, it takes a week or two for Nintendo to reply, because they're a much bigger company now...kinda sucks.
I wrote a letter to Nintendo pre-Wii asking about the "Revolution" and got a response. I still have it somewhere.
I should have wrote to more companies before the Internet was such a huge resource. :D
Woo. I'm posting this from an Apple //e. I have it hooked up to a linux box via a serial cable and am using some terminal software on the Apple to talk to the linux box.
I'm using Lynx, which is interesting...
Did we know that the famicomworld server blocks the Lynx user-agent string? It even blocks it if you change Lynx to L_y_n_x. I had to tell the server that I'm using Mozilla in order to get through :P
So...yeah. I'm glad I finally got this contraption working.
Have you tried links or links2?
I've only got a monochromatic terminal, so using Links would be impossible.
I've used it from monochromatic terminals a number of times. Notably from a Gentoo minimal install CD or the base Knoppix CD.
Okay. I installed links and links2. They look about the same. They layout pages a bit better than lynx does, which is nice. It also doesn't seem to be blocked by FW.
Live and learn, I guess. Thanks for the suggestion.
Posting from my new 3DS!
Let me know your friend code when you have time. :)
PM'd!
