I NEED MONEY

Post by Gamelver »

Like, to eat, to live, you know...I have dates coming up soon, too :\ (as in, multiple dates with one chick :P)...

So, I'm gonna finish a portable as fast as I can (likely a Genesis, since I have the radica done..). Literally just compile random working parts together to get something to sell, and then to ebay! I'm starting now, and need encouragement. aim me at portugawesome or add me on FB, David Sepulveda (CMU network...yeah, carnegie mellon), email at davesepulveda02 at gmail.com

honestly I'm gonna need it when I'm a few hours into this and exhausted (I've JUST finished school...but I need work/money ;))


anyway, this is all I can do now, since I'm going home in a few weeks, so I have time to spend here with you fine folk while I work...

If you're the kind of person who donates to people, go ahead and help me with some money to that e-mail via paypal. If you're not, you could also do it anyway, since you might feel better. Otherwise, just send me some encouragement, post in this thread, or reminisce on old gamey portables (if you can remember them, lol :P)...ignoring me is also possible, but it will not help me much :(


I'll post updates here and then move this thread when I know for sure what portable it is :P.
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

Hey. I know we barely know each other but I have seen your portables.

I love your work and wish you the best of luck.
Money problems are the worst right now.

KEEP YOUR CHIN UP AND NEVER LOSE YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR!

Oh and I am really sorry I cannot donate.
But believe me, I would if I could.

I'd donate, but I don't have Paypal and anyone who knows me knows I'm way too cheap to donate, let alone buy most things. That sucks though, a lot of people have money problems right now.

Yeah, right :roll: Quit making excuses, you know you wouldn't.
I don't have paypal,
I already spent too much money
OMG, I have to go right now, but if I had time I would.
I just have to sell some stuff, then I'll donate.
umm, sure I'll donate *never donates*
see the pattern? The world is full of liars who say just enough to lead on that they're a good person, but their souls are really deeply twisted.

Hmmm, I'm gonna add you on aim, and we'll see if we can get this money issue straightened out, but I can't donate much. Did you ever send my screen?

Heheh. :P Not as hateful as Eurddrue, but if you cannot donate, then why say so?

I hope you do well, Gamelvr! Howzabout you finish that N64 Advance! :wink: I think we all have money problems here... :(

Also, I am more sure of my opinion than Jack Thompson in an arcade of his that if any other member had posted this, the thread would be locked/deleted, and I would not put it beyond the poster to be sent on a little vacation. :mrgreen:

Yeah, that we do. I have a goal of making an N64p by the end of the summer though. However, I may build to sell, so I can fund another portable/electronic gizmo.

so both my hipgear screen and 4" screen have broke, so I'm screenless :P. I'm wiring up an old fc mobile system with a NES cartridge slot and a new case....I have the screen and everything for that, but I still need a NES cart. slot and a case...I'll figure something out over the weekend, and hopefully finish this! I might just wire up one of my taken apart NES cartridges to it to test...

thanks for all the support! especially the one crazy enough to give me $7...thank you so much! That should pay for those stupid paypal feels transferring money to my account :x

Nobody buy his soul, unless it's from me. It's a scam. I already bought it.

Someone (by that I mean not me) should give you $1337 dollars. If they're really elite, they'll give you $1337.1337. Yay fractions!

$1337 is too much. $13.37 is much more realistic.

That's what I was thinking.
