It's alright... I'd have preferred a version using the original arcade art like Elite used though.

Are you going to mod it or something?

I already did the hylo mod.
An older version, evidently the team got a hard legal smack down so hunting around for the zip can be troublesome.
Sanwa/semetisu (?) Buttons & sticks will drop right in.
Factory feels ok to me for now but perhaps if they need replacement in the future.
Honestly, I was kind of excited for this thing but was a bit letdown in the end.
Audio latency is quite noticeable.
As a stand alone stick its acceptable.
I'm glad I caught it on sale because I would be very disappointed if I had paid full price for it.

Yeah I owned one and got rid of it asap. I probably would have kept it to mod but it's so ugly. It's just such a weird design, I mean the CD pad button layout?. Very lazy and cheap all around.

Seimitsu LS-56 fastener type with the MS mounting plate works fine if you want to upgrade. Easy swap and no need to dremel or solder.

R-Type sounds great if you can access the FM audio.

I love little stores in the middle of nowhere.
I ask do you sell videogames? Nope, is the reply, whilst I literally see out of the corner of my eye the game boy logo buried under a stack of electronics under the glass counter.
Paid 60 euros for everything probably made her profit for the day.

It’s cool dogg, 60hz and rgb out of the box on NGC
.It's actually not the CD pad button layout. That had the weak (A and B buttons) on the bottom and hard (C and D) on top. This appears to have the punches on top, kicks on the bottom, basically Capcom style.
FWIW, 16-bit loves his and raves about getting it modded and playing the hell out of it.

Nope. That's actually from a member that doesn't come around these shores anymore (that I know off). It's been a while since last time I've been with Denim.

Excellent pick ups! Especially Qix - one of my favorite classic Taito games and the Atari 800XL computer version is probably my earliest video game memory from circa 1983. I was OBSESSED with this game as a kid.

I got this in a very smooth trade with @BanishingFlatsAC . It has the Fenrir ODE installed. I'm generally not a fan of flash carts and backups, but then I had the epiphany that I could use this to easily play games that were never officially translated on original hardware. This morning I put Policenauts, the Shining Force III trilogy, Sakura Wars, Dragon Force II, etc. on it, and they work like a charm in English!
