Dude melee in the console, plus the wavebird receiver, WHAT

how was the price on the gamecube “bundle”, lol

3dgarfly23 · Sep 18, 2020

Had no controller tho $13.99.

TURBO UNO · Sep 18, 2020

Still an awesome deal. The purple one happens to be my favorite color for it and fits perfectly. I had a similar deal where I got a boxed black GameCube with 1 controller (GameStop controller) and inside was Zelda Wind Waker for $15

Did you beat SoR4?

Last night on Easy

But I was playing with a non-gamer in that 2nd Player Slot..

I have ONLY used Cherry. I will probably go back through with others.

Peace Keepers.

Anybody familiar with that?

Have it on my SNES. Really fun game. SoR type of game. You should try it out.

Also, check out Iron Commando.

Similar to SoR, too.

Can you play SoR4 online? Would be amazing if you could, wouldn't mind linking up playing old school games with some of ya'll. Contra, Super C, Double Dragon, would be sick if you could play them online.

I tried putting folks on PARSEC but I don't think anyone looked into it.

But Parsec is a tool that allows PC users to do exactly what you said.

Monthly gamecube grind- Saw this mint copy of f zero at a good price and I jumped on it.

Trying to get mario strikers next but prices are wild

I was in the ps store scrolling around to see what games they have and I see Doom 64 on there :wow:

Oh nice! How much did you spend on it if you don’t mind me asking. I have that one and got lucky finding it at the thrift store for $3. Same for Mario Strikers that one might be missing the instruction manual.

About 15x more than you did :smh:

but this copy looks like it was never used so I’m happy. Willing to shell out a few more dollars for better condition. Also came from an original owner and not a reseller

The forgotten AKI/Asmik game that was the God Father to the N64 Wrestling Games.

Something I found at my parents house:

TURBO UNO · Sep 24, 2020

I stopped by Goodwill today and found a GameCube wavebird controller....no receiver though. I looked everywhere for it but no luck :frown:

You and

3dgarfly23 should’ve teamed up. You know he just copped that receiver with no Wavebird.

DCAllAfrican I know Aki/Asmik Ace are defunct but it's mind boggling that no one has stepped up to procure their game engine. Bump the number of wrestlers on screen from 4 to 8/10, include an actual referee and just increase the character model polygon counts.

The hand drawn animations and collision detection of the Aki game is so much better than the garbage they have presently. It was a damn shame when WWF switched to the Yukes game engine for their GameCube games. I stopped caring about them after the GameCube. :smh:
