NES PC Gaming Mod

Thanks again for the kudos all. If any of you want to help in supporting the project, we're trying to hit more views on youtube. We have it posted on reddit and are trying to keep it alive. ALSO, I'll be posting a teaser video for the SNES build in a few weeks. EDIT: Reason I am trying to...

Ha, yeah I guess it's a little late. But at least I hit the quarter century mark. :awe:

Good movies for Halloween ?

From looking at your avatar, I'm surprised you didn't say Eraserhead. That's a good movie to watch alone, in the dark, with the volume up loud. It's just creepy, and awesome.

I could have set it up to do save states - but the design was based around getting it as close as possible to what an original NES would do. So no save states. Haha, I wish I could have made a way to blow into the cartridge. But if the system locks up, just do what you would do on the original...

NES PC Gaming Mod

Well, I've only had the box completed for about 2 weeks now, but I don't think I will have it do anything else other than play NES games. I know it looks to be a waste of the system's full potential, but Hyperspin does take a considerable amount of resources to run. While it is possible, I just...

I'll make one more post just to say - Lesbian Vampire Killers. Ok, I'll stop now.

I love the Re-Animator series...and From Beyond which sort of ties into it (ok not really, but I always consider it to be part of that bunch).

Good movies for Halloween ?

Well it depends...are you looking for cult classics? In all honesty, I can't recommend any of the current horror films out there in Hollywood right now that were released this year. Here would be my list if I was to throw a party or something: - Night of the Demons (1987, not the remake) -...

NES PC Gaming Mod

Well, I tested the system for weeks with Prime95 to see what temps would do with full load, even though realistically it never works that much when playing the games. After I had fitted nylon spacers on the feet, my CPU temps would never go above 55 degrees C on full load. But in normal...

Timescape: Best TNG episode ever!

My vote would be for Darmok, but Best of Both Worlds also rocked. All Good Things was a really good finisher for the series, and the ending sums up Roddenberry's philosophy quite well. I'm just glad no one said Parallels yet - ugh...what a terrible and badly written episode.

Hyperspin is the front-end (aka, the menu system). So I didn't "make" it per say, but I did have to build the menu database, have the images for the box art, wheel, and even themes match the database, have the videos match the database, make my own intro video to the menu system, and also shell...

Yeah - there are probably 800 games for the NES total, but I did not include the Zapper games, Rob the Robot games, and European and Japanese games. And it saved me from finding another 100 images and videos for those games. ;)
