I'll start us off

whats your deal? Did people just forget to have fun?
and no, thats not me
>>2815984
Does the Gameboy camera work with the super Gameboy??
I got a few
>>2816007
Maybe, I wouldn't know, my super gameboy doesn't work in the first placeworks on gamecube gameboy player though
>>2816017
what the hell is that
>>2816027
This is what happens
>>2816025
Rom rippers/players
>>2816037
You sure? I'm certain the first few S&K carts would cause the Genesis to error out and just give a black screen due to running out of memory.
This is why most RPGs don't work with S&K.
>>2815984
Best towers are the ones that actually work
>>2816041
No joke, it's on vine.
>>2816010
What is that thing between Phantasy Star and the Game Genie? I've never seen one before. Was it an EU-only product?
>>2816209
That's a Power Base Converter, it's used as a passthrough to allow Master System games to be played on a genesis. It was an international release, if I'm not mistaken.
>>2816217
I learned something new today. Thanks, I'll have to look it up.
>>2816224
You're welcome, I would recommend picking one up if you can find it. Unless you already have a Master System.
Not a tower, but the same spirit.

Grey box, Z64. Dumps games to Zip disks.
White box, V64. Plays ROMs burned to CDRs, apparently can dump them too according to what I read ... I have one, but could've sworn it had a non-burning optical drive, not sure. I found it at a thrift then just stuck it in the closet.
>>2816021
Gorgane?
>>2816261
It's a hell of a drug.
>>2816027
I fucking kek'd hard

>You sure? I'm certain the first few S&K carts would cause the Genesis to error out and just give a black screen due to running out of memory.
nah
For the stack, the Genesis would try to address the 4MB of ROM that it can like usual, and the ROM chips would undervolt due to it trying to power through the whole stack, causing unreliable reads, VDP glitches, etc.
this is probably bad for every component involved in the stack, undervolting is pretty bad for most tech
dunno if you could get that many as in >>2816027 working though
I also don't know the specifics (eg, is it the bottom cart that boots the machine? I think so, but I'm not 100%. There's definitely some kind of straight passthrough with the top port, so it's probably just banking whatever it accesses through the slot to the second half of the 4MB address space, so the stack might just be the Genesis, S&K, and then a shitton of copper between until it gets to whatever if anything is on top, but wouldn't it just bank in the S&K half? It does work, but I dunno why).
Most RPGs don't work with S&K because they have their own SRAM on the cart (S&K will happily overwrite it, so don't do that), and because they're too big (you're banking 4MB onto the 2MB S&K ROM, and the Genesis can't address 6MB of ROM at once like that, not without a mapper to bankswitch portions).

It's a hardware-based NSF player.
Cartridge on the riser if the controller, the other four are for audio expansions (up to 5). There's another discontinued control cartridge that has a built-in FDS chip so you can use all 6 expansions at once.
The riser is also a passthrough.
>>2816209
It's a Master System Converter. It was only called Power Base Converter in Amerikek.
>>2817026
Where to get?
>>2817026
Get your game translated cocksucker.
I got myself a fairly decent stack.
>>2816236
Like this I assume. :-)
>>2818527
Now that's what I'm talking about
its too bad you don't have the game boy camera
>>2817026
>Two FDS's
why?
>>2821003
Stress on the cartridge slots and board edges if you don't support it well.
Excessive power draw, but I'm not an electrical engineer so I can't expound on the ill effects of that.
>Sure it makes a funny video
That's the exact reason for doing it.
at least you've found something to do with all that useless plastic you have collected
>>2816025
Bottom thing with the disc tray is a Doctor V64, used for backing up games and you can even use it to develop 64 games.
above that is a N64 obviously, with what I believe is a rom backup utility? I think the roms are burned to a disc which is why there is a disc tray.
On top of that looks like a game genie or some kind of region unlock thingy, and then obviously starfox 64
>>2816007
I can confirm it does indeed
send me your carts
lets build something beautiful
>>2816017
Looks like a 90s Fax/Printer with an N64 glued in the middle
All I got.

This was taken a few years ago after I dug it would of my garage. I've since cleaned it up, and then placed it back in my garage...
>>2823601
Just lost interest or have you joined the emulation master race?
>>2823610
Lost interest. Its something I dig up every couple of years and play with. Usually when emulation starts to feel a little too fake.
>>2823459
niiiiice
now we just need some master system converters
>>2823459
'send me your carts'
okay lemme do that real quick. What's your address bro?
>>2823459
The 80s/90s were so fucking boss when it comes to tech. Store models now are just retail models with demo discs in them. I miss back in the day when shit like this existed.
>>2823890
Are you writing on original disks or using general quick disks?
>>2824696
A bad copy of what used to be Golf US Course.
