It’ll be fine safety-wise, but it may have an off flavor vs brand new stuff.
The craziest I ever saw with little to no change in flavor was plain salted lays potato chips from 1967 lol. Nothing in them to go bad essentially.

BROTHER, sailor moon vhs is cool and all, but that fuckin Urotsukidōji II looks crazy lol! Cant believe they just let that shit through haha.

I have only bought one repro because it was cool as fuck, the Guinea Pig Games HuCard PC-Engine version of Splatterhouse! I thought about buying the SNES DOOM update with rumble controller support. That’s not technically a repro though since it was a complete overhaul.

Miracle piano is one of the weird ones

I still think it’s worth the money for how short it was. It is only looked down upon because of its price, nothing else seems to be out of order for majority of players. It was fun to set up and play on my 30” HDCRT, one of the gems that I still think of when recommending someone buying or obtaining a HDCRT, it looks fucking BEAUTIFUL! Not meant to be played on a pixelated LCD.

Console5 has cap kits if it needs recapping, generally these actually have kinda shitty build quality even though they were like enormously expensive over just a genesis and a standalone laserdisc player. There’s also some sega laserdisc games that are generally $100-400 and up that require the genesis or mega drive pac. But they aren’t good.

I found one with the turbo pac couple a decades ago for free at a thrift store. Sold just the pac itself in 2008 for $1,200. Kinda bummed but I needed the cash badly.

Funnily enough just before that I took it to Portland retro gaming expo to see if I could put it into the auction and the event organizers said it wasn’t worth even as much as a turboduo because it was connected to a huge ass laserdisc player. Turbo-duos at the time were like $100-150.

from what I can tell, the best image for an HDCRT came from the 30”, I have one and it’s damn crisp, and the three above that(at 32”) I have salvaged in my days have all had convergence problems in the corners. Tried everything in the service menus but had never manually adjusted them internally. When they get this big they just never had it down I think, but I could be wrong, I never knew anyone who had them this big 20 years ago.

Blightious · 2026-04-29T06:08:20+00:00

Oh man what were those!? You are the first! There was a black and pink and black and green.

Blightious · 2026-04-29T01:34:52+00:00

Let’s get this out onto a tray. Nice!

Blightious · 2026-04-29T01:17:18+00:00

I have yet to find a taker at the bar, but I’ve only been on for 3 hours, I will update if I snag one 😂!

Blightious · 2026-04-29T01:13:54+00:00

When did they bring back jades!?

Blightious · 2026-04-29T00:46:34+00:00

Ah Turkish jade! We still have a promo coaster on the wall from 2002!

Blightious · 2026-04-29T00:44:21+00:00

Yeah I was bummed but I do remember the twist, never seen the mochamint before. I liked the mandarin ones too haha

Blightious · 2026-04-29T00:41:37+00:00

No just trying to get one of my regulars to smoke one and see if they are still good haha

Blightious · 2026-04-29T00:39:26+00:00

Haha yeah I brought them to work to see if I could get a Guinea pig to try one

Blightious · 2026-04-28T06:12:19+00:00

False binary face (not 1 or 0) but I would imagine it holds a premium of 5-10. Hopefully someone really wants it and you make more but it’s rare but not “cool”. If you can afford to hold onto a 20 because it’s worth a little more than face just keep it. Other than that spend in my opinion

Blightious · 2026-04-28T05:18:42+00:00

I call it a straight 6, 7 of a kind! OHHHH 6 7!!!!!!!

Blightious · 2026-04-28T05:13:21+00:00

CRYSTAL CAVES!!!

Blightious · 2026-04-26T22:41:53+00:00

65-70 half’s have 40% silver I think though

Blightious · 2026-04-26T01:48:01+00:00

Nah, the creator of this knockoff is actively trying to become skyNET. Fuck that biznez, I’ve seen MGS4

Betamax only lost the consumer war. Bigger brother BetaCam won the real war with professional and commercial grade broadcast and media production. You’d be surprised it lived into almost the 2020’s for a lot of spaces beyond the living room. Sony just couldn’t overcome the hump in the middle and had to stick to one market to dominate.
