It's been a bit and I am looking to get back to it, I have examined multiple pictures to see how it attaches, but I cannot figure it out and the manual doesn't say. I figured out the square end connects to the key lock, just not...

    Did anyone go to the Des Moines auction on 11/28/2021?

    They had said they were doing an online auction, plus a live auction. I watched the online auction and it looked like almost all the stuff they were showing that they live-streamed on friday night, making me wonder what was left over for the live auction.

    Video game and retirement

    VectorCollector brought up an interesting fact in another thread.: Some old-man words-of-wisdom for you (as I'm in the early retirement stage): "You won't have as much time as you think you will once you retire; in fact, you'll have less. You'll be even more busy than you were before. You may...

    Has anyone used Talon2000's Pac Man stencils?

    I bought a set roughly 10 years ago and am now ready to use them, but I cannot figure out how they go down. The Black and Red layers look like they have reference marks, but the blue layer doesn't appear to have anything. I tried messaging him, but it appears he hasn't been on in over a week...

    I finally got my Asteroids Deluxe up and running. I play it just about every night, but I find that while I am playing old memories come flooding back to me from ny youth. It is the wierdest thing, this does not happen with any of my other games. I would like to blame this on why my scores...
