Re: WTB: 138-in-1 Classic Horizontal

I demand you tell me why a raspberry pi won’t do as well as a board that only plays 138 games

Re: Possible score? Amazing Tater at Value Village

I just did a quick look on ebay and they seem to sell around 499 all the time.

Probably closer to 400 is more realistic.

So about the only difference i can see between what you paid and what they sell for is the location of the decimal point.

I would say you did alright

It being a working crt and recently powered up, so charged, shouldn't he be keeping his kid a little further away from a potential discharging crt?

Re: Anyone have a Raspberry Pi powered cabinet/bartop ?

If there is a pi inside you could try something like https://www.element14.com/community/docs/DOC-78055/l/adding-a-shutdown-button-to-the-raspberry-pi-b: You wire a button to a couple of the gpio pins and run a script at startup I wired up some controls directly to the pins for a buddy and it seems ...

Creatron on College st by Spadina in Toronto has the pi 3 on at 53.50 Canadian, beats waiting for Alixpress shipping times and paying in US dollars. https://www.creatroninc.com/product/raspberry-pi-3/ Everything else you need you probably already have or can get - micro SD , phone charger - you want...

Re: Anyone have a Raspberry Pi powered cabinet/bartop ?

I rigged up a Defender for a guy at work last week. I had some buttons and a two way joystick so I mounted them onto an old shoebox, stuck a pi inside and he was good to go! No IPAC required!

I play Tempest on occasion on the one I kept.

Cocktail table monitor in Barrie

Flakey but was working. A little jittery at times and the colours off sometimes. Made the 60-in-1 menu hard to read. Pulled it out, put it on a table and took a picture http://www.kijiji.ca/v-old-video-games/barrie/small-arcade-monitor-could-use-some-love-or-caps/1174422122?enableSearchNavigationFla...

Re: Need to remind myself to NEVER........EVER........EVER offer my "tech" services.

Why someone would plug one wireless router into another I am unsure. Does any good reason exist ? the Rogers Hitron routers are considered by many to be a POS. A friend of ours called in one night for technical support and they told her that having 5 wireless devices connected - not in use, just co...

How about the roof rack of lights from a military police car

I guarantee it is not in nearly as good of condition as the cab. And it's not a cab.
