Off topic but how did you get the game genie to fit the toploader? I cant seem to make mine fit.

I took a lighter and melted down the sides. It smelled kinda funky, but it worked.


edit....also galoob made and adapter for the top loader. You can get it on ebay, but the lighter thing works well.

Did you melt the sides of the game genie, or did you actually take a ligther to the toploader?

Melting a GG bothers me, but melting the toploader is just wrong.

I melted the sides of the game genie. It is still fully functional.

Goddamn there are some assholes on this forum.

Listen, it doesn't look great, I'm not going to lie, but if it was your first time painting, you probably shouldn't of posted pictures in the first place. There is no reason for everyone to be such a fucking bitch over a guys first time painting a system, he tried, and he learned.

Just be more delicate next time, also, I would suggest not melting any other apparatus' for any other systems to make them fit, really fucks things up in the long run.
