HDCRT or if you want the flat screen get a Plasma, it will display the older consoles better then a LCD.

Definitely the Wonder Wizard.

Try to get a TV with VGA in so you can hook up the DC via that.

It's amazing how I can own almost 80 NES games and still feel like I've barely scratched the surface of what the system has to offer.

If I owned 80 Neo Geo games or 80 Sega CD games or 80 TurboGrafx games I would feel like the effing man.

A Zangief player just won the Los Angeles Street Fighter 25th Anniversary qualifier tournament. A ZANGIEF PLAYER. Never in my life did I think I'd see the day.

Zangief in the right hands can be pretty badass.

Oh, certainly. It's just so impressive that someone (SnakeEyez) at high level play can really make a character shine who has such rough tools. Zangief definitely has his strengths, but it's so common for him to get shut down because of how limited the scope of his offense is. To watch somebody take such a restricted character and make them succeed against every other challenger in the tournament is just incredible.
