Cowabunga! That is a seriously cool gaming room. I especially like how you have the controllers stored. The TMNT theme is really awesome, the VHS tapes are a nice touch, and the Genesis side of things is thorough. Also, you have four Gamecubes...

Huh? Why do you have four gamecubes?

Your thread reminds me that I need to set up my game room. Currently using my living room. It won't be as organized as this though. And why is the cdx on the wall with the controllers. Have that shit set up.

Cool! Looks like a really fun place to hang out.

But... FIVE Gamecubes? Why? Also, I think you need to get rid of those two discoloured PS1s.

I like your SNES Gameboy controller. :wink:

TMNT games are fun.

I've heard stories that with the proper cords, I can connect this joystick to an NES, a Sharp X68000, a Neo-geo, or a PC. I've also heard of an infra-red wireless connection I can use on this arcade stick.
As with so many other things in web lore, I have a hard time separating which cords were released stateside, which cords were Japan exclusive, and which cords are mere rumors. If you know where I can find more cords for this thing, let me know.
I have a boxed Nintendo one which came with NES and SNES cords. So that answers the question for the US release on that one. Obviously the X68000 cable if it exists will be Japan only since we didn't get those here. A PC cable would be cool, though it would be joystick port not USB so would need another convertor which could introduce lag.
