some things to maybe keep in mind is that RB has been getting a pretty good amount of attention lately. maybe mod chips at all would be a bad idea, on second thought. i dunno.

Universal Game Cases all the way! I've been wanting to pick those up but am a little frightened about owning 100. I only need about 30 or so.

The 2 online retailers I've spent a lot of money on in the past year or so are modchip.ca and gamersection.ca
I ordered almost 1/2 of the stock at modchip.ca last fall.
I've been thinking of doing some case mods for my handhelds. That stuff isn't easy to find anymore but should still be available somewhere.
Another idea would be t-shirts and sweatshirts.

If you want, I can do a powersearch for unique gaming products and accessories like I did for Castleroids and Thumbdrives. Sometimes I can even track down the manufacturers of products.

Saturn memory cards! Saturn and Dreamcast S-video cables! Genesis Model 1 AV cables! And, undoubtedly, Saturn Modchips!

yes. heck yes. I just ordered a saturn usb pad. If it plays well i was going to get another.

I did the exact same thing last week. I should be getting mine next week or so, it's shipping from China.

It probably is a knock-off, but I hope its a good one.

@ Racketboy;

I like what you currently have up there now, but I would expand with some harder to get (maybe even used?) stuff too. DC VMU's, controllers and parts, hell you could even partner with a couple guys on here and sell custom sticks.

I second (fourth?) the request for Universal Game Cases. They're becoming pretty hard to find online, and when you do find them, they want you to either buy increments of 100 of em, or pay way to much for individual cases.

If you could somehow find a new middle ground, you'd certainly have my dollars.

i say mod chips for older consoles+controllers & memory cards
these things tend to get expensive relatively
maybe you can sell retro stuff like magazines, posters , you get the idea

[racketboy]

Thanks for the feedback!
Game cases: the place that sells them won't have more until July at the earliest
I'd love to sell the Saturn pads -- just have to find a supplier
Used stuff: possible, but finding cheap stock can be challenging and labor intensive
If people want t make custom stuff and sell them here, I'm up for that as long as we can both make money and logistics are figured out.

Keep the ideas flowing!
