	Even better, you can use the Neo-Geo joystick with the Innovation
arcade stick adaptor box :)

	My Inno stick broke a while ago, but I've kept the adaptor unit
around just to use my Neo-Geo stick with.  I didn't like the Innovation
stick very much - I found the buttons were a little on the stiff side.
Using a Neo-Geo stick on all your consoles is near perfect!

Yeah the RX pads pretty comfortable, but it's crap for fighting games. The
D-Pad is too stiff so it's really hard to to do special moves. Best
controller for regular games on PC Engine is The standard pad I reckon. The
Avenue 3 is pretty useless. However if your playing SF2 and Fatal Fury etc I
reckon the The avenue 6 is the best option. I like it that all 6 buttons are
on the front of the pad rather than 2 of them being being stuck on the
shoulders.

comfortable controller is by far the Duo-RX pad.

I had this problem some years ago and it's definitely the AC adapter.
If you're using a replacement adapter, it's simply to weak (you need
at least 1450mA). If you're using the original one, you need replacement
or service (don't know what the part is called in english, it's a
large capacitor that needs to be replaced).

I would have to say that the MS Sidewinder gamepad for the PC is the most
comfortable to me.  It has a very soft D-Pad, 6 buttons up front and the 2
trigger buttons.  I would rather play the computer version of a game with
the sidewinder than any console game.  As for consoles, I don't think any of
them are that great.  The X-Box controller is pretty heavy, the DC
controller has the trigger buttons at strange locations (perhaps my fingers
are just too long), and the PS controllers leave rough spots on my hand from
playing.  Aren't we entitled to a well designed and comfortable
controller???

Folks, I'm sorrier to say this than you may be to hear this, but I've got to
go the route with these modules that will make the most profit.  I got laid
off today... I can't afford to go any other way now.  If anyone wants to see
the links when they hit ebay, let me know.

You know what? I never thought of that! Damn, I'm a dumbass! Next time I fire 
up some Castlevania Bloodlines or Alien Soldier, I'll have try it out with 
the Neo Stick!

Hey y'all,

  I would like to highly recommend Fred Charron.  He is a rock solid seller 
with great items.  Plus, he is very nice, even though he is Canadian (just 
kidding of course).  I hope to deal with him again.  Two of the games I bought 
from him I have never played - Dynastic Hero and Dungeon Explorer 2.  
They look interesting.

Wanted Turbo

CD
Beyond Shadowgate
Ys I & II
Lords of Thunder
Gate of Thunder
Dungeon Master
Might and Magic
Loom
Lords of the Rising Sun
and any more shooters (I have none)

HU
Cadash
Military Madness
Splatterhouse
any shooters

Hardware
SuperGrafx NM complete

                     Laseractive TG Modules

  Mr. Tower originally asked if anyone would be interested in buying a 
turbografx laseractive unit.  I responded instantly.  We discussed 
payment.  He said paypal was okay.  When I responded, indicating that I would paypal 
him, he said "no, blah, I bought a laseractive unit, blah, blah, blah so I can test 
them."  I said AS-IS is okay by me, but he refused.  

  Then his sad post graces the list.  If he was laid off, why wouldn't 
he email me personally (as I was the first to respond) to let me know what is going on 
(would be the nice thing to do)?  Me thinks someone smelled gold.  His 
responses were just too sketchy.  I know it is not civil to judge 
people, but I feel I have been wronged.  If he really has been laid off, then I am a fool.  

Take care,

John Turnbull
