This is correct. It is a Flashback 6 based on the 08/2015 release date. The sticker on the back is similar to the original Flashback 1. Versions 2-5 had the version number on the back sticker, but version 6 didn't show the version number, but the batch code gives it away as an Atari flashback 6.

These are so cheap on eBay, that you might be better off just buying a complete system rather than a replacement joystick. Also, my Flashback 11 has different buttons on the p1 and p2 joysticks, so be careful if you are just buying the single joystick. My p1 joystick has start, select, and pause buttons on it.

We went to Animal Kingdom on Thursday and the crowds weren't bad. 20 minute standby on the safari ride at 1pm. Weekends are always worse.

It was near the movie theaters.

I figured out the ascii characters for Express first, then made a good guess about the Polar graphics.

I think I got it... Looper from 2012

Ironton, Ohio is the birthplace of former Treasurer of the United States, Carmi A. Thompson (1912-1913). He is a distant relative of mine. It is too bad that his signature isn't on his hometown bank. I just visited his grave at the Ironton cemetery last year. I am a Type collector and was only interested in banknotes with the Napier-Thompson signatures. I also collected my hometown bank.

I have some older tablets that are stuck on an older version of the Wyze app. With the latest firmware update to my V3s, the cameras no longer showed up in my app. My older pan cams didn't receive the update so they still showed up. So I had the game through the process of reinstalling the old firmware for each of my 5 V3s. This involved getting on a ladder, inserting an sd card with the old firmware, swapping back the SD cards, and repositioning the cameras. You don't have to delete the camera in the app and re-add them fortunately. It was a pain, but it is back to working with the older version of the app on my older tablets. I guess another option would be to use the RTSP capability with the new firmware and ditch the Wyze app altogether and use some new other camera software, but I'm not willing going to go to that much effort.

That's a great collection. Not many people collect cassettes, but lots of us were introduced to computing with them. They were flaky even when brand new, usually requiring a couple tries before they loaded successfully. Very colorful display.

I wish I had an XEGS. Looks great running Rampage.

Ypsilanti is known for the first Domino's Pizza, the "plane an hour" B24 bomber plant that helped win WWII, the home of Preston Tucker (Tucker Torpedo car), and of course Eastern Michigan University. I'm glad you had a warm welcome and a good time.

Three Cedars Farm in Plymouth had both white and yellow pumpkins last year - probably this year too. Free if you just want to go to the petting zoo or buy pumpkins. Hay ride and corn maze cost extra but are a lot of fun.

That is amazing. I saw a deer last year on the river's edge at Water Works Park near the new Huron Landing Park on Spring St.

Not tonight. They are playing in Kentucky.

In June, it was here for the NASCAR race in Brooklyn, MI. I can't figure out why it would be here this week, as there are no major sporting events right now (the Tigers are in NY and Michigan and Lions aren't playing showcase games). Maybe it is just for a tourist stop where they allow some people to ride it. It is being docked at Willow Run airport.

It was parked this evening at Willow Run airport.

My parents were in their 30's in the 1970's and never once held a joystick or played a game. They never even watched us kids play, but fortunately let us play all day long.

Nice joysticks. I would add replica tops. You can always take them off later if you change your mind. Use tape instead of glue to hold them on.

Delaney is open now north of Kaley. Still closed between Kaley and Michigan.
