Got consoles?

[CrypticQuery]

There are many different consoles I would like to acquire at one point in time or another.  There is nothing I've wanted more than a Vectrex.  These things mystify me, and the games have good graphics (for the time) and they are fun to play! Here is a picture:

If there has been a console/gaming device you have been dying for, list it below, and don't forget to add a pic! :D

I remember playing this once... It was great.

I know it is an arcade but today, I can not find it.

Man, I want that JP Arcade Shooter!

I forget what is was called, but I once had a small space invaders machines, vecotr graphics, I remember at the end of a level your ship would break up and you would have to catch the bits as they fell down.

I would love to get a Sinistar arcade machine.

For those that don't know what Sinistar is, here's the wiki for it, and a youtube video showing a bit of the gameplay.

In this video, the guy is showing a slight exploit you can use to defeat Sinistar, but it shows you a bit of what the game is.

Sinistar... I have a port for the Sega Genesis/Megadrive...

Such a great game! You can play it over and over...

However, as a side note, do you know why is the game

'so HARD'? Because the freakin' playtesters said that

no game you could get past the first levels without

MASSIVE tries was good!... Dummies  .

Lawl, what did I do exactly that did that?

And DRL, I've never actually played Sinistar myself, but I want to because I enjoy the classics, and I've seen ports for it, but I've heard numerous times that it's one of those games that you need to play at the machine, and that the ports don't do it justice.

[Guest DRL]

Lawl, what did I do exactly that did that?

No I do mean it. The development team

had placed efficient dip-switch options on it,

allowing the owner(s) of the machine

to set the difficulty level. However, the

testing team said it was "way too easy"

and the game should be "way too hard"

to be fun.

Doesn't surprise me, Space Invaders had a rocky start since no developers wanted the game since it was "too hard," since it was the first game to shoot back.

He,he...

Well, those old days...

Either it was too easy or too hard.

Until Pac-Man  .

Well, there's this song, I knew it used quotes and sound effects from a game called sinistar, I had no idea what sinistar was, and for some reason I could never find videos of sinistar. Now I know, and am pleased with the discovery.

Haha I just figured out why, it's not sinister it's sinistar!

Oops almost double posted, caught myself in the act.

I like the too hard ones, I love that feeling where you've got everything memorized and you just have to go crazy to get anywhere.

There are quite a few songs using Sinistar's voice, since it was a bad sign in the game (he only talked when he was fully built, and hence coming after your ass), had an awesome voice, was back in the days when you had to go to an arcade to game, so everyone would hear it when the machine was undoubtedly going (I heard it scared more than a few children, and some adults too), and was one of the first games to have stereo sound.

As for songs, here's a few I've found with Sinistar

Panzer Division - I am Sinistar

Furries in a Blender - I am Sinistar

DJ Hazard - Cowards Beware

[ThePointingMan]

Awesome songs, the one I was thinkin of was the one by I think his name is... I dunno, he goes by Renard Queenston, and it's the furry's in a blender one, but those other ones are awesome too! I really wish I had one of em arcades too... My friend made 2 arcade sticks out of shoe box's and some set you buy, which is pretty neat, he's also got a setup on his computer not to be discussed on this sight, which he uses the arcade sticks with! but still, I don't think it's quite the same. When I'm older, any spare money I have, it's being spent on arcades, and gaming accessories.. Oh shoot I got the best pooping Idea ever(Yeah that's right it's pooping.) Err. as much as I'd love to share it, I can't  :?
