@Teksette Jealous on the AES+! I wish Blaze would get a simple usb paddle controller out, it surprises me that they haven’t. I’m sure plenty of VS and Alpha owners would grab one at £20. I know I’d take two!
@leogames no, don’t get me wrong, I’m all for ethical consumerism. I wouldn’t get on a high horse over it though. Nobody lives guilt free in this world. As you point out, there’ll be many other products where an individual isn’t even aware of the dirty money/ evil deeds of a given corporation. It’s not wise to judge.
Anyway, sorry, not a personal grievance. It’s just an F’d world we live in. ✌️
@leogames whilst SNK’s Saudi ownership leaves a bad taste, it’s my understanding that their stake in Nintendo is worth considerably more. Pot and kettle.
I have the Taito Super Pocket that covers a number of these but big screen Puzzle Bobble and multiplayer Football Champ are worth it alone for me. Already got some 4 player FC lined up for Saturday night. Perfect for beer led pick up and play fun 🍻⚽️
Very sad to hear. Ben was a very knowledgeable and helpful guy. I really appreciate his contribution to the scene having purchased a Harlequin 128k kit and DivMMC amongst other bits from him in the past. RIP 🙁

Fantastic news! I’ll get the Activision cart eventually, pre-ordered Neo Geo as soon as the announcement went out this morning 🔥

@michaelf it’s the button that assigns turbofire. The symbol is like an engine turbo 👍
