There is no way any of those games were tested. I get it cut corners saving time/effort/money it would cost because 98% of these old games will work anyway after cleaning the pins. They pass on the labor to the customers, knowing most people will clean the pins rather than return the dirty games. It is absolutely shameful for a video game specific seller to provide such a low effort service.
I remember when the OG Nintendo Classic came out and the SNES Classic's they were so popular. I ended up getting them for friends, and I only got a small profit because it was helping them out and I happened to be working a 2nd job part-time at Best Buy.
"NWC 35th Edition: a new developed pro version for the NES (Canceled) is the subject of an intellectual property dispute and is currently unavailable."
I did a Kickstarter video for a girl and it ended up getting her about 50k raised to Green light her project, and then she turned around didn't do the project, blamed everybody else, and virtue signaled her way into getting a tedx talk where she talked about how much abuse she got during her own project. Which were 100% all lies. Meanwhile those people that gave their 50k totally lost at all. The only silver lining from it, is that I think I was the only person she didn't throw under the bus.
Feels like they did this as a publicity stunt. Because their knowledge of the industry means (you’d think) they would realize that they’d receive a cease and desist. Are there really dumb nerds out there?
John Hancock is a about as immortal as the Soulja Boy BS he pushes. I'd heard too that Metal Jesus Rocks has pushing it too, aka the guy who e-begged for people to crowdfund his water damaged basement when it was all proven to be 100% insured & he pocketed the money (remember watching the dozens of videos about it)
Normally I would side against Nintendo when it comes to the legal they pull, but this one they were completely in the right for. Especially when Nintendo just released their own new version of a NWC game.
Someone in the comments mentioned Riggs, come on surely not! The guy who made all those videos plugging the Amico did a video on this scammy crap too? No way
I dont donate or pre-order anything ever. If I'm buying it, I want it when money is exchanged. I especially don't donate when the person has more than I do already. I'm basically poor. I've seen a certain RU-vid channel (that I won't name unless someone asks me) ask for donations and then they posted photos on Instagram of a luxury vacation. I've never been on a vacation in my entire life. I'm not giving them a penny. Fund your own ideas. Nobody funds mine and theyre better than yours.
FOMO has been out of control for a while and its drove me away from buying retro. This isn't limited to just retro or repo. 100 dallors is slowly becoming the standard.
I def thought this was weird and not something I would personally promote. I do get that somethings seem like good ideas to those doing them in the moment and really it takes good folks to point out when they might be going about it wrong. Glad you are there for those in need.
Ah. The good old Dreamcade Replay. I ended up removing their software from the start menu, and I replaced it with a Big Box build, but I haven't used it in a while. It was an ok price for a micro pc, but when they lost the license for the Atari form factor, I was disappointed that they went with such a generic shell. It takes very little effort to flash a board with a rom they didn't make, and put it into a cartridge shell. They should only be charging for parts and shipping.
Germany 🇩🇪 here, could someone from the USA 🇺🇸 explain the law group thing ? How does this work over there ? Is this done or will everyone involved have a serious problem ?
For the sake of our channel, we definitely hope so! Tough getting any traction these days-very oversaturated, so any draining of the swamp is appreciated! 🤣
