It's not just the adjustable adapter you have right? Do you also have a japanese transformer?

This

If you don't have one over time you can blow a famicom out and I'm sure that the sharp is 100v.

Here is where I got my info before I got my FC

I think that's exactly what happened. I had heard conflicting sides of whether or not I needed a step-down transformer, so I decided not to buy one initially. I think whenever I get mine fixed/replaced, I'll use an adjustable AC adapter I purchased from Amazon.
It's like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, but instead it's Who Wants Fried Chicken? I do.

You should play it Ratty, I have the PS1 and PS2 versions around (PS2 via Street Fighter Alpha Anthology), the PS1 versions nice, but is missing some key animations (like knocking your opponent around the world, one of the games best animations IMO). I do want the Saturn version in my collection, especially when I found out some of the Darkstalker characters had renames when the series came to America. Lei Lei was one, and I prefer this name to the one Capcom gave her in the west. Hsien-Ko doesn't necessarily roll off the tongue as well as Lei Lei does, and especially now that I'm starting to want to get into Darkstalkers, and because I'm also on a heavy Capcom fighting game fever craze right now.

Plus the Saturn version of Pocket Fighter has voice acting for the ending, but sadly not in English, doesn't matter though as the game is very charming.

About FF7, I just couldn't get myself to play it. I find the old 3D to very very ugly, the beggining of the game to be very modern for FF, and the soundtrack to be very major mode sometimes (very epic some other times) for my tastes.
Now I'm tired, eternally walking... forever dying, and never stopping. I feel in sorrow, all I see is white. I’m following a blind way beneath a sad sky.

I'll admit when playing FF7 I have to turn on the red arrows pointing to the exits because sometimes I can't tell that's what they are

replaying all the kingdom hearts games on emulators for HD and Widescreen
Just beat a Translated KH2 Final Mix (cause that's the only way til 2015)
Forgot how good these games are, takes around 35+ hours to beat and more hours for the extra stuff...
Hell, I 110% LoS PC in 33 hours and only beat it around 20 hours...

I forgot how games used to be so long and enjoyable...

I just finished Tomb Raider 2013 for the PC. I thought it was just bland, standard AAA game paste.

Do you also have a japanese transformer?



Pocket Fighter on MAME, PS1, Saturn, or on my PS2, any way I can play it. It's a game most dismiss as a children's version of Street Fighter, but those folks would be very very wrong, it's quite the complex fighter, and it's where my Sakura avatar comes from (that and Super Puzzle Fighter II of course).

I challenge you to a duel :P

I recently picked up The Elder Scrolls Anthology yesterday. God dayam! I never though Bathesda would ever put one together. It has all the main titles: Arena, Daggerfall, Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim. It also comes with detailed maps and all the DLCs for TES 3, 4 and 5.

Wow! That sounds as a great collection item! Is it available in retail or just as digital download?

You should try out the Darkstalkers OVA, some parts of the plot(s) might be a bit hard to follow (it's based on a Capcom fighter after all) but the animation is gorgeous and it's surprisingly faithful to the game story. The Saturday Morning cartoon is funny but only if you're into painfully cheesy, badly written and worse animated 90s cartoons.

No, it's retail. It would be too big to download otherwise.

Ahh Darkstalkers. Ahh how I would love for Lilith to suck me dry.
