I ordered a Super Famicom from Japan (hopefully its 60Hz output will be compatible with my display), it is still on route but in the meantime I got me some cheap but neat sfc carts. The first to arrive was Kirby Superstar Deluxe. I need to get some contact cleaner because it took me a good half an hour to get it to work. Also it won't start at all with the lockout chip disabled on the Pal Snes. Need to start it in 60Hz and switch it over to 50Hz. Pal games are ridiculously expensive compared to Super Famicom games so I'll get more Japanese carts even if I can just use the Super Everdrive to play them. I love the artwork on them.

eBay. Suprisingly for not much more than a used one.

Got some more Shockboxes and inserts for my MVS stuff. Debating on touching up my Windjammers insert more. I need to find a nice bookshelf that’ll hold them all - any leads? I saw an old thread for some IKEA ones before but that’s been discontinued now

your shelf would hold more carts if you didn't have the cases slanted like that

The lighting really sets the mood. Turn on some Marvin Gaye, chill the bubbly, and you have the beginning of a fantastic evening

I have an Everdrive for all my consoles.
The shelf is only about half the depth of a shockbox. I used to have them flush against the wall but i've accumulated more than will fit on the top of it. Currently angling them is the only way I can actually fit them.

Bought these at a local game swap yesterday.
Managed a trade for Bare Knuckle 3.
I'm still a big fan of Shockboxes. They look great.
Check out the HEMNES Bookshelf from Ikea. Cost a lot more than pressboard but it's not complete junk. Still not high-end, but pretty good.

Speaking of computer nerddom, the last decent PC I had was an Athlon something or another years and years ago, and I've been trucking on a POS emachine for the past decade. With the price of most computer parts aside from ram and video cards being really cheap, I decided to put together a nice little budget build using a cheapass Ryzen processor. Then last Saturday I stayed up too late, was browsing ebay and perhaps mistakes were made, but I have a RX 580 video card on the way. It doesn't appear to be a mining rig's bitch, so fingers crossed.

The Billy bookshelves are awesome as well.

Got a bunch of crap lately:
I'm a fan of Arkanoid, and have been playing the Famicom version with the Vaus controller. But Arkanoid II is a far superior game to the first one.
The SNES mouse is my second one, which I'm going to hack to attach a proper spinner for Arkanoid: Doh it Again! (snes exclusive that you can use the Mario Paint mouse on). Still working out the technicalities of hooking up the optic board of the arcade spinner to the data lines of the mouse's optic circuitry.
Also I've been getting into the NES's 4-Score supported games lately, and was able to get Super Off Road, Gauntlet II, and Smash TV for cheap. Smash TV with 4 controllers, 2x per player for dual-stick shooting is actually pretty decent to play with. Super Off Road supports 4 players, as oppose to the nicer looking SNES version that only supports 3.
