Wonder Dog is terrible game by modern standards but by god it was "fun" in 1992, also the intros were mind blowing at the time.

I used to go to the retail store in Raleigh. I bought several Saturn imports as well as a Japanese Dreamcast and games before the US release. It always had a scummy feel to it, but it was the only local place to get such things.Anyone remember Buy-Rite Video Games

MAS systems of old is gone. OG owner had a heart attack or something.I remember MAS systems being a big deal back then. I got ahold of one of their twin stick super guns and it was something to behold.Basically a full size arcade control panel with a super gun inside.This was before they came out with the cookie cutter model.Didnt something tragic happen to the owner(s) not too long ago?
EDIT:I wonder where that super gun is at today? It was huge and built like a Tank.

National Console Support looks to be still around, Japan Video Games unfortunately seems to have folded.Buy-Rite horror stories were a staple in rec.games.video.sega.
I never had any problems with Tronix or NCS, so I stayed far away from Buy-Rite.
I know who you're referring to.Im looking at his avatar in my mind right now but the name escapes me at the moment.He lived in Illinois ,I think Chicago and I believe he was friendly with NGF.Who was the guy who used to be on here that opened up a video game store? He always had a full set of US Metal Slugs for sale on eBay at 100k for free advertising. People would go in for a game and he'd rant and rave and tell them they weren't allowed to buy anything.
I don't remember if Josh originally had a different username here, but the flagship store which he seemingly became hell-bent on franchising was located in Southern California, somewhere around the Huntington Beach area, IIRC.I know who you're referring to.Im looking at his avatar in my mind right now but the name escapes me at the moment.He lived in Illinois ,I think Chicago and I believe he was friendly with NGF.
