<24.99> JAMMA pass-through adaptor (to give me six button with my Pandora's Box 3 instead of five) Next on the list is an MVS->JAMMA adaptor if I can find one for a decent price that isn't already broken. |

I think I have more things to add to this but I haven't been keeping up with my spreadsheet recently. I'll see about updating it soon. |

I'd be all over wireless, I think. When you come to MeatUp I'd be interested to see what you think of non-Pro VR - I have no current urge to upgrade, but if there's a big jump I might be tempted. |

Conceptually, yeah; but the wire doesn't annoy me nearly enough to spend yet another few hundred quid after all the money I've spent this year already. Grim... wrote: When you come to MeatUp I'd be interested to see what you think of non-Pro VR - I have no current urge to upgrade, but if there's a big jump I might be tempted. Well, technically I have had some experience of it as I spent a good few hours VRing on my OG PS4 before the upgrade. It's almost impossible to say for sure what the difference is unless you had the same game running side by side on the two different consoles. I've theorised that the Pro has possibly helped me with nausea stuff but I don't know for sure, it's also possible that I just developed my 'VR legs' after spending a decent amount of time with the tech in general. |

I pretty much only buy things on Ebay through PayPal. That way, if they don't send the item, Ebay covers the cost and automatically refunds you. You can still get postal orders - I had one of my website customers pay through one the other week. And I'm waiting for a cheque from another one. And a third sent me a banker's draft from Ireland. Retro payment methods for retro games. |

With my gaming backlog cleared I reckon I'd easily get my money's worth from that between the free games and discount so I'm currently hoping someone from my team at work will buy it for me (in exchange for the cash obviously). I'm not buying an Amazon Prime membership just for this as it would negate the discount. ETA: Success! |

I'd say that's a good price and also, a good stick! I have one which I think I bought off Hearthly? I use it on my PC for emulators although, I'm thinking of getting a Wii to USB dongle thingy so that I can use my Wii Snes pad on my PC. I like that pad a lot. |

<14.99> Fire Pro Wrestling Word (Steam). I always wanted to get into the Fire Pro Wrestling games, but the best ones always seemed to be Japanese-only. Considering the game's only been out a couple of days, it would seem the Steam workshop already has a shedload of custom content - Attachment: fire.PNG

My problem with the games in the past is that I've never really known how to play them properly, but I've just gone through the tutorial missions and I'm away. Downloaded a few of the custom-made wrestlers from Steam and just had a match with me as the Ultimate Warrior against Big Daddy. Attachment: 20170712181951_1.jpg

It's not dissimilar to The Main Event or Wrestlefest etc., but it's basically those games with lots of extra gameplay and customisation. I think the fact that they're more about timing than mashing buttons. |
