Did you find that radio in that hole you dug on the neighbor's property?

 

[lakebum431]

Why didn't you actually open the remote? Wouldn't that have been more useful to people?

if it wasn't for the tv i would've thought the video was from the 80's

if it was the 80s i would be talking like this

"Hey Dude's and Dudette's!, Check out this tubular video coming at you, be there or be square!"

Does the Original NES give it away? I still have mine in the attic, doesn't work anymore though. Still play some of the EMU's of them on the original XBox and the Wii.

you can still emulate on the computer

what goes wrong with the nes is there is a 72 pin connector that gets worn out after a while. there about 7 bucks on ebay

Best one yet to play on is the Wii. Quick softmod of the wii...throw the games you own on the SD card or USB harddrive. Turn the wii-controller sideways and it's just like the original NES controller.

Still never understood why they disabled playback of video DVD's on the Wii, the softmod fixes that too.

I heard that it would mean they'd have to use a multi-speed (RPM) motor instead of using a constant speed motor.
(The disc speeds up as the outer edges are being read.)

The constant speed motor only needs voltage to be applied.
The Multi-speed motor would need a controller and still be more likely to fail

So reason for disabling it was cost of manufacturing

Unlocking DVD playback on the Wii works fine so manufacturing was not the reason. It was probably cost of the playback license. Oh well...DVDX on the Wii works great.
