That series is some of the least scary examples of the horror genre, even when I watched it back then...but then again I grew up watching and reading lots of horror.

Re: Hard times with making stencils and spray painting (5 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
If you want to use tape, use a good quality masking tape, like blue painter's tape or Frogtape.
I am far from a professional but masking and painter's tape gives me decent results. I can't really speak on stencils much as I have always made them using file folders and just held or taped them then sprayed, but that was for putting words/letters/numbers/names on stuff.

Sound aside, I doubt he would have been able to see anything if he really was playing.

Can you post a pic in normal lighting?
this
also side by side with an unlit one?
Does any light bleed out around the edges of the screen?

your best bet is probably to replace the entire front board. if they aren't available locally you may have to buy one from somewhere where they are more readily available.

Shipping to anywhere in the US will be $13.10 USD for AirMail or $18.20 USD for Registered AirMail for the boxed carts.
Shipping to anywhere in the US will be $6.20 USD for AirMail or $18.20 USD for Registered AirMail for loose carts.
I am just a bit confused here. I may have missed this, but is this price just for shipping (minus prices per cart mentioned on the first page) or is it total price shipped?

Re: A question on acrylic spray painting (2 replies, posted in Nintendo Consoles)
Gold spray painted game boys are rare.
arfink's advice is good. Alternately you could buy a can of a different gold and do the stencil (or use tape). Failing that you could just paint a grey triforce or have arfink engrave a triforce for you.

Re: Putting Sid Wizard on a Floppy (26 replies, posted in Commodore Computers)
I tried to stick with all original and period hardware for my apples. If you decide you really like using a c64 you should consider a replacement for magnetic/mechanical data storage. It is fun to mess around with the older stuff, but eventually the combination of cost, inconvenience and lack of reliability might outweigh the nostalgia or novelty if you plan to use it much.
It is interesting that you use DD disks at work (and if not, where did you acquire it?). Do you mind sharing what you use floppy disks for? A couple years ago I worked with equipment that used high density floppies for recovery and such, but not regular use. I don't recall any of our computers having floppy drives...just a handful of disks waiting for things to go very wrong.

Re: Cleaning Cartridge Case? (9 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
He kept spraying it in his mouth to show us how safe it was... my parents were like "STOP IT WE'LL BUY IT ALREADY" and we've used it in this family ever since.
I wonder how many sales he got doing this.
I don't think I have ever used it to get rid of marker on plastic, but I think I might give it a shot. Serious question about all the rubbing: will simple green break down the ink easily or do I need to just keep scrubbing? I don't want to mess up the texture on the items I am considering using it on.

For that price I would think the buyer would at least get a matching battery cover.
How much actual gold was used in making this?
