Game Forum / Nintendo / GameCube / November 2004Nintendo and Playstation??
I find it funny how back in the day with super nes and even just nintendo i seemed to have no problems and even now they work great but it seems in order to get all the better stuff that game cube and ps2 offer you have to have alot of bad effects. what i mean by this is i have had a super nes and nintendo for years and run great and i am on my third ps2 and almost second game cube. my game cube for example i bought madden 2005 and evertime i play my second game it says a error has occured and even if i get a different madden it say that anyone know why?? and really i donno what i would rather have a super nintendo that last long but doesn't have the best of graphics or a game cube that has good graphic but last about a year or two. i think it is stupid that the machines now a days don't last. Optical mediums are more prone to errors caused by dust that accumulates on the laser lens. Carts don't have that same problem. > I find it funny how back in the day with super nes and even just > nintendo i seemed to have no problems and even now they work great but [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > game cube that has good graphic but last about a year or two. i think > it is stupid that the machines now a days don't last. > I find it funny how back in the day with super nes and even just > nintendo i seemed to have no problems and even now they work great but [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > game cube that has good graphic but last about a year or two. i think > it is stupid that the machines now a days don't last. I should imagine heat plays a big role... -- Delameko Stone > I find it funny how back in the day with super nes and even just > nintendo i seemed to have no problems and even now they work great but [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > game cube that has good graphic but last about a year or two. i think > it is stupid that the machines now a days don't last. I purchased my Gamecube in 2002 and have had no problems as of yet. Only problem I had was with Metroid Prime when it would occasionally freeze on the elevator. And it happened once in Zelda, but other than that, works like a charm. > I find it funny how back in the day with super nes and even just > nintendo i seemed to have no problems and even now they work great but [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > game cube that has good graphic but last about a year or two. i think > it is stupid that the machines now a days don't last. Are you kidding? I know, Playstations and PS2's wear out faster than socks (both of mine have been repaired), but do you really think your Gamecube isn't more reliable than an NES? You don't recall all the blowing in the cartridge slot and cartridge, and all the clicking the damn carts up and down in the machine, and all the reset button presses and flashing screens? I sure as hell do--because I still have an NES and still do that. And when it gets too bad, I put in another cart slot from MCM Electronics... My Gamecube, on the other hand, works flawlessly still (even survived several controller flings and one kick), and it's a Japanese launch model. By its third birthday, my NES was so picky I had to jam paper under the cart to keep it at the "right height" to function. > Are you kidding?

The good, old, edge connector in the NES! Yep, I remember the flashing NES screen very well. I would take the NES apart, take out the edge connector, and attempt to pry the pins back as close together again as possible. This would work as a fix for another month or so. Eventually I just bought three new edge connectors. My NES is boxed up now with a new connector inside along with two spares. New NES edge connectors can still be found on Ebay for very cheap... >>I find it funny how back in the day with super nes and even just >>nintendo i seemed to have no problems and even now they work great but [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > By its third birthday, my NES was so picky I had to jam paper under the cart > to keep it at the "right height" to function. He said super nes. Although better than the NES, I still have to blow into mine now & then... > >>I find it funny how back in the day with super nes and even just > >>nintendo i seemed to have no problems > > He said super nes. > > Although better than the NES, I still have to blow into mine now & then... "even just nintendo". Remember, in the good 'ole days, it was just "the Nintendo", not the NES, and we all "played Nintendo", not videogames. |
