I can Answer Video Game Compatability Problems (PAL, NTSC, JAP) for Atari 2600, 5200, NES, Super Nintendo/SFC, N64, Gamecube, Wii, Gameboy, GBA, DS, Sega Master System, Sega Mega Drive/Genisis, Game Gear, Mega CD, Nomad, Saturn, Dreamcast, Lynx, Jagura, Philips CDI, 3DO, Playstation, PS2, PSP and Xbox. Plus Ways around them to play wrong regions games on most consoles.
I also have an extensive knowledge of service and repair with most home consoles as well as arcade/pinball machines.
I have a reasonable general knowledge of most new to older games (I personally own about 1000 games and almost every console known to man.)
Playstation, SNES, SATURN, Genisis/MD, NES, MS conversions. Controler conversions SNES to NES. Game conversion. Multi Carts. Remix and re-wire. PSP repair. Arcade building and customising. Video Game repair
I have been a Gamer for a number of years and have moved on to the hardware side of consoles because of my thirst for knowledge. (In my real job I am a programmer and if I put my mind to it could develope software. I have several unfinished works I should get around to finishing)
I am still learning the finer points on systems such as X-box 360 & PS3. But I am usually good and find it out anyway regardless of what it is, which also include games.
Most Genisis/MD games are both English & Japanese (2 Versions on 1 Cartridge) and change when inserted into either a English or Japanese system. The USA & Japanese SNES are identical hardware wise exept the cartridge slots are different. You can play the Cartridges on wrong system if only you can get the cartridge to fit. Ever Wonder what happened to the SNES CD? It became the Playstation.
I don't understand the mentality of making machines territory locked? Not having universal systems is just plain stupid it just duplicated hardware manufacturing needlessly. I still have a hard time beleiving I can play a Sonic game on any Nintendo equipment. Something 10 years ago would have been unbelievable.

Gday Kaleb, Well it definitely not the AV cable since it works on your gamecube. At a guess it probably the game or the cartridge interface on the N64. Just sounds like the unit is not boot up.
Gday Jon, Fairly Easy one which I did not even have to look up. The Game is Called Lucky & Wild it was released by Namco and to my knowledge never released on a home console. http://www.arcade-museum
Gday Again Amir, It would be totally up to you what you call it. (Although something with the word "GAME" might work. It would depend on what existing business are named (As you would not want to
Gday Amir, From your criteria I would say the Playstation 3. All have fairly good performance. Low Breakdown only the Xbox 360 Suffers. Minimal Maintained they all about even, just charge times on
