Nice job on the custom cable. retrogamecave.com also sells pre-built cables that are well built.

Today's grab was a $3 thrift store AV cable that sacrificed itself for the greater good of supplying a higher quality audio/video signal from my TG16. I have thought about installing RCA jacks into the rear cover and wiring the pins up to that but I have severe misgivings about chopping up a TG16 cover to do it even if it would clean up this electrical spaghetti. :p

What is that in the System? A Turbo EverDrive?
Yessir, and I LOVE it. I never really intended to get a TG16 or collect for it just due to the prices for most stuff. Then a TG16 just sort of fell into my hands (a couple pages back). First thing I did was buy a Turbo Everdrive. I won 2 controllers and TurboTap on eBay but I haven't gotten them yet. I've just been bumming my roommate's controller for now.

Thanks, it didn't turn out badly for my first one but I would make a few changes in the direction of the one you referenced if I were to make another. I also have a lead on the 23x3 female connector that will plug in perfectly to the TG16 EXP port. Then I could just wire up the pins I want and plug in the whole block. I'll be revisting this for sure

Neat! I have an Everdrive 64, and I personally believe that the guy who makes these makes them of the highest quality!

Yes, Krikzz. I have a Famicom -> NES adapter from him as well which is housed in a cut-down US cartridge shell. Works perfectly and boots every time.

This came in the mail today.
[img width=700 height=1244]http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/w365/adsanislo/20150417_171902_zpsqzxoy30u.jpg[/img]
Corny little backstory:
My first arcade memory was of Quartet. I was 5 or 6 years old (circa1989) and the arcade was at a KOA style camping place, which looking back on it was kind of strange...
Anyway years go by and I forget the name of the game (I probably never knew it to begin with). But as I grew up I would frequently hum the tune of Stage 01, even well into my mid-20s. I never saw the game in any other arcades and it was driving me crazy that I forgot the name of it since I was constantly humming the tune.
But by happenstance I was watching The King of Kong and in the movie there was a 2 second clip of the game. Immediately my eyes got wide and I ran to my computer. I looked up the time stamp of where the game footage was in the documentary and BAM. Quartet.
At long last, 20 years of torture, I found the name of the game. I looked it up on YouTube, found the soundtrack, listened to the Stage 01 track and the nostalgia hit me like nothing else. It sounds pathetic but I was on the verge of tears finally listening to the song again after all this time. Its like I was 5 years old again.
Finding the name of the game and hearing the song was ultimately my "Big Bang" that got me seriously interested in retro games again even though I didn't start building my collection for a few more years after that. I dunno why I waited so long to buy a copy, but I'm glad I finally did.

The kids dug the Mario flags. I love the Mario Party 10 store display. Funny story about that. A buddy I was with said did you get the Mario Kart 8 poster and I told him no. He showed me the poster and I was like the kids will love this! I'll go after lunch and get one. So after lunch I go in the Nintendo room and ask the guy about the poster. He said that they were all out, which one were you looking for. I said Mario Kart 8 and he said we didn't have Mario Kart 8 but they had Smash Brothers and Mario Party 10. I said I would take any one. He hands me this unopened cardboard box with a shipping label from Nintendo. I'm guessing that that was the last one and he was going to take it for himself. I'm like sweet! So I'm thinking it's a box of ten posters. I couldn't wait to get home to open it. I opened the damn thing and I peed my pants!! It's a damn brand new store display. Awesome!

The theme of PS3 and NES continues, as that's all I've got.
All of these are from 99gamers except GOWIII which I grabbed at Gamestop.

These are from 99gamers except TWINE which was bargain bin from Digital Press.

W&W is from 99gamers. Rad Racer and the NES Max are from Digital Press. I know everyone hates the NES Max but I always loved it as a kid. The secret is to ignore that thumb slider thingy and just use the black ring as your d-pad. I grabbed this mostly because I need the turbo to cheat in Crash N' the Boys.

Trying to get back into the habit of posting my scores. Here's some stuff I grabbed recently. As you can see, I've been getting into the arcade compilations lately.
