... and ended up playing Dogyuun for 2 hours. Really, I just hooked it up for a quick test. Am I easy to distract? Maybe... Is the game just too good to leave it alone? Maybe... Was it because everything worked first try, and I did not have to switch it off again and resolder? Definitely! Ever found yourself doing something for way longer than planned?
I was testing out an NES system with some of my duplicate games that I wanted to include for the heck of it. The game on the top of the pile happened to be Gyromite, which without ROB can still be kind of fun. I ended up messing around with it for a good half hour.
Yesterday, I fired up a friend's PS3 (supposedly broken) to test the laser. No BD, no DVD, but guess what, I ended up playing Dino Crisis 2 (PS1) for over an hour (I have a very important exam in 3 days, ouch)
Yeah when I built my supergun I powered up my MVS for the first time and I was so amazed I left it on for a few hours just staring... amazed seeing the Neogeo boot sound and game intro and the awesome crystal-clear RGB picture. The controllers werent even completly wired!
