Best mail day in ages!!
After trying to figure out how to do this myself (i.e., have friends smarter than me figure it out) & failing, I found someone to do it right. He installed a 2TB HDD into my original Xbox (the big, giant box from 2001), did some more fancy things behind the scenes & installed every emulator & ROM set known to man, as well as nearly every original Xbox game made for the system. It will take me MONTHS to figure out what is on here, how to navigate it, etc. I can add any games that are missing (there are some Xbox games I'd like that aren't on here) as well as any new homebrews/hacks that come out. If you're so inclined, here's a crappy video I made for my friends to show them what's on this thing. Enjoy!

It looks better than the Flashback Portable, but with no SD card slot, is clearly inferior. (IMO)

It just leap frogged the 60+ other podcasts sitting on my phone! Thanks Ferg!

I didn't mean to jump the line on you Ferg, I just wanted to thank you.

There's hope for me yet! "Old Fashioned Arcade Proposed"It's not as convenient for me now that I've moved but it's still my "neighborhood". Hopefully this works out!

I have the Flashback 2 & portable as well. I'm definitely interested in the Retron 77 & perhaps the FB 8 Gold. Unlike Ferg, I'm hooked on HD. Like snobbish, refusing to watch anything in standard def because it's too blurry. 4K is next up to take full advantage of my Xbox One S (& most likely at some point the XBO X). That said, I have my standard def TV 📺 for my 2600, NES & Genesis game time.

I love the idea of the junk box but I pretty much eradicated all my junk before the move. And I really love the idea of the AMA!!!

That happens to me too sometimes. Thank you for the kind words, but don't go crazy trying to listen to the show, it's not going anywhere. 😸 All set my brother! Now I just need to try & win another Guess The Strudders' Scores contest.

My recent move has resulted in the end of my commuting days. My podcast backup is epic! I don't like to listen while I work because I find the 'casts become background noise & I don't focus. The 2600GBG has priority #1 & jumps all other podcasts. I will finish ep. 137 today no matter what!

I play every week with my friend Don, he devised a number of different rule sets for Scrabble which turns it more into a vocabulary game, rather than a memorization game. He has many Scrabble pages on his web site, this is the rule set that we play every week. www.donaldsauter.com/scrabble-iii-introduction.htmI like those rules. That's much better.

The more places I have to read & think about the 2600 GBGPC, the better. Also, that's more places I can post photos like this:
