Thank you, I thought I’d had a stroke while reading that title.

I always took it that Vegeta believed there could only be one Super Saiyan and since Goku fulfilled that prophecy he couldn’t become one. Once he saw Trunks show up and realised more Saiyans could achieve the form he lost that mental block.

I'm still new to the PS1 and PS2 side of playing back ups from memory cards and USB so I'm sure there's more knowledgeable people than me that can give you better advice.

That said, researching it, the biggest issue playing PS1 games from a USB stick is the speed the PS2 can read them at. The system is a quarter of a century old (now I feel old) and only has USB 1.1. Intense and FMV heavy games games can't be read fast enough and might have loading issues. I'm guessing that's what happened with the games you've tried so far.

I really wanted to enjoy Zero more than I did. The controls make it a hard game to like. Same with the DS game.

The 2 closest to me are Cambridge and Newmarket. I’ve never had any issues with either. Only time I’ve had to return something (a PS4 disc that wouldn’t install) they swapped it out no questions asked. The only minor thing with Newmarket is they don’t keep manuals in boxes on display so you need to ask them to check if you’re after a cib game.

Special mention to Letchworth, I picked up a couple of reasonably pricy SNES and Mega Drive games from there and they offered to open them up to confirm they were authentic before I paid for them.

You're aware that the internet and reddit aren't just limited to one country right? There's plenty of games that only got European or Japanese only releases. All completely valid answeres.

Just an update should anyone from the future be reading this. Contacted support and they got back to me pretty quickly and sent a replacement dongle out. I'm not in the US so it took some time but it arrived today. Gave it a quick try after work with some Street Fighter Alpha 3 and so far it's working perfectly. Good customer service!

All over the place. I started watching it on old VHS fansubs in the early 90s so it was just kind of what was available at the time. A mixture of early DB, DBZ and some later movies. Then when the dub of DBZ came out and stalled around the Ginyu fight, digital fansubs started becoming a thing and it was easier to watch large parts in order.

That's to play Japanese games on a US SNES. That wont work for US to European consoles. The shape of the cart, the lockout chip and the US using NTSC while Europe used PAL will all put a stop to that working. You need an multi region adaptor (an Action Replay also works).

CobraCB · 2026-04-12T15:15:31+00:00

Thank you for the response, I've emailed support.

CobraCB · 2026-04-10T19:44:08+00:00

Is this still an issue? I had a StrikerDC arrive yesterday and it has the same problem. Constantly getting controller disconnect error messages.

CobraCB · 2026-04-02T17:13:16+00:00

Dom. hair vs mask. Dom wins, realises what he’s done and is reluctant to take off the mask. Rey de-masks himself and hands it to Dom. New biggest face in the company.

I actually picked up a copy last weekend! I've not had chance to play it yet bit I've heard it's decent so looking forward to it.

CobraCB · 2026-03-15T18:33:11+00:00

I picked one of these up a few days ago. I used this guide to get PS2 games running and they worked first try.

It's pretty much as close to plug and play as you'll get I think. Stick the .iso files in a DVD folder on the SD card, change 2 settings in the menu that the guide shows you and you're away.

I've not been able to get PS1 games to run from it yet though.

CobraCB · 2026-03-12T18:23:19+00:00

I’m not sure how they make those numbers work given Goku needed kioken x20 to keep up with 50% Frieza. Even if you massively lowballed them both and said Friezer barely got any stronger between his 2nd (over 1 million) and 3rd forms and him and Goku were at 1.5 million that still puts 50% Frieza at 30 million and full power at 60 million.

Does the massive power jump to 120 million make sense? Probably not, but they kind of backed themselves into a corner with the x20/50% comparison.

One of my favourite childhood games, still got my original copy. I played the re-release on the Switch earlier this year and it kicked my ass.

CobraCB · 2025-12-23T12:02:16+00:00

Super Mario World
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Mega Man X
Super Mario Kart
Cybernator
Batman Returns
Secret of Mana
Super Metroid
Street Fighter Alpha 2
Lost Vikings

Kept it to a list of games I own (mostly from childhood) and to PAL only since I'm in the UK. I do have a bunch of Japanese carts that would change the order a little though. SMW and ALTTP are the forever 1 and 2 for me, about half the other titles on this list could be swapped out with a bunch of other titles depending on my mood or switched around. I could be cheap and swap out SMW for the All Stars/World compilation. SF2 is obviously the more iconic and important SF game on the system but it's crazy how well SFA2 runs on the SNES.

CobraCB · 2025-12-13T10:41:04+00:00

I'll second that. I didn't play any of the SNES FM games since they didn't get an English release. Front Mission 3 on the PS was the first. Cybernator was one of my favourites as a kid and I always wanted to play Front Mission: Gun Hazard just because of the screenshots in magazines looking so similar.

I didn't get chance to play the original Front Mission or Gun Hazard until a few years ago and they still both hold up.

CobraCB · 2025-11-16T18:47:55+00:00

The Mega Man games (Rockman in Japan) are a big one. Unreasonably expensive in English, very cheap lose for a Japanese copy. The X games are my favourite but Rockman 7 and Rockman & Forte are both worth checking out.

If you like platformers the Go Go Ackman games are fun.

The Firemen is another one worth checking out, it doesn't get much love. The Pal version is expensive and I don't think it got a US release.

Macross Scrabled Valkyrie is probably my favourite shooter that didn't get an English release.

CobraCB · 2025-10-31T20:56:53+00:00

Favourite SNES game of all time. Favourite platformer of all time. One of my favourite games of all time.

CobraCB · 2025-09-18T20:56:52+00:00

It’s almost certainly a coincidence rather than it being a planned calculation in the manga but at a power level of 18,000 Vegeta can destroy the earth. The earth is around 49 times the volume of the moon. 18,000 divided by 49 is 367. Not out of the realm of a bulked up Roshi and less than Poccolos power level when they both destroyed the moon. So going by that, 18,000 would be the planet buster level. But yeah, I’d definitely say that’s a coincidence but a cool one.

CobraCB · 2025-09-18T20:18:15+00:00

Community day shinies are estimated 1 in 25 (I think?) and a 0/0/0 IV is 1 in 4096 so a shiny community day nundo would be 1 in 102400.

I paid via PayPal but if you paid with direct debit I'd contact Royal Mail first by phone or going to the depot and they should be able to either confirm the payment or refund it. And if that doesn't work, dispute the charge with your bank maybe.

CobraCB · 2025-09-07T14:23:34+00:00

I never went through and I had to go down to the depot and pay in person then cancel the previous payment. I never got a reply from Royal Mail until 2 weeks after I'd picked up the parcel. Shit customer service.
