Having to buy physical add ons for a console, to be able to play a certain games!!!!

main culprit: NINTENDO 3DS, the circle pad pro is an additional 20 bones. the worst part about it is it doesnt support extended batterys,it plays off your wifi and YOU CANT FIND THE DAMN THING ANYWHERE !!!

without this piece of .... hardware you can't enjoy games such as kid icarus, resident evil and more.

The Jaguar CD is quite notorious. Mine started working when I took it out and reattached it properly a couple of times, just like you have to do with game cartridges some times.

I have never thrown a controller in my life but have seen lots of others do it. I saw a guy chip his tv screen with an NES controller. WHY?? :shock:
I broke my old keyboard (and my fist) during a big screen freeze/lag spike back in 2007 while playing World of Warcraft :lol: But I'd never abuse any consoles, especially retro ones. Or throw a controller at the screen. I only hit my keyboard if I'm having lag in a really bad situation, since it doesnt have any collector/historical value. I've got to say that I'm surprised how durable they can be, I bought this Logitech keyboard a little over 5 years ago after breaking my old one, and it has worked fine ever since despite the fact that I've eaten every 9 out of 10 meals I've had ever since on top of it. Although some buttons are very loose, I can fit my finger under the space button. Not to mention how damn dirty it is...

But I guess it's nothing that special since there are millions of perfectly functioning Commodore 64s and other similiar 80s keyboard computers out there.

Funny that you have a Nintendo 64 logo as your avatar :P Tgfx16/PCE is a lot worse though :)

Games that require peripherals kinda irk me. I have copies of Mario Paint and Hey You Pikachu that are completely worthless because I don't have the SNES mouse or N64 microphone.

And holy shit... dat keyboard. :lol:

I'm actually a big fan of add-ons for consoles, even when the game require them. I'd rather Majoras Mask require the expansion pack and look great than not bother and be a blurry mess.

And guys, I'm pretty sure menegrothx is joking about the keyboard. He probably pulled that pic from Google images.

I took the pictures while I was trying to clean the darn thing, I was surprised to see how much dirt there was hidden under the keys. I had to scrap crusted filth off many keys with a knife and even after vacuum cleaner and wet cloth treatement, I still couldn't get rid of all the dirt under the keys :? It still works like a charm though.
