Clones galore

I went to wal-mart today and saw a bunch of those plug and play TV games. The ones that caught my eye the most were a couple of new Space Invaders (or was it Pac-Man...) SpongeBob and WWF Wresting (*cough* CRAP!*cough*) games. They say on the packaging
"UNLOCK MORE GAMES WITH GAME-KEY! (sold separately)"
I looked at the "keys" they were selling and they were a small cartridge like thing. They are meant to plug into the slot and add on levels I guess.

I'm considering buying one once they get cheaper to if it might be possible to solder a 72 pin cartridge connector to the "key" connector and play NES games. Right now it's a total guess if it's possible or not.

Anybody know anything about these new TV games?

I saw this too, and I tried to count the pins on the cartridges. I don't think it had 72 or 60, but it may have had.

I saw this too, but was there a NES game one?

Most of those plug and play things are emulators, so I doubt it would be possible to hack them and put on a fami/nes cart slot. However, if you want to try, they sell them at Gamestop for $5. Their site even has them!

(Gamestop also has Atari Flashback 2's for $5....big sale on crap! I don't know about the generation NEX, though.)

I have a receipt to confirm this. The guy that worked there was mad too because he wanted to buy it and didn't know that they were part of the sale.

Thats an insane price! I hope I can get one (assuming I can borrow some money. I don't have a penny to my name.)

G, I would TOTALLY lend you the $$$, but I too am broke. Sorry.

What the hell? I'm loaded and I wouldn't lend G-Force the money.

Seriously, who would lend money to a random dude on the forums?

Anyone? Anyone at all?

"I'm broke" is my excuse for "No". Seriously, I was kidding. I'm not THAT stupid. Or am I?

Nah, I guess I'm not.

Hey, through all the times I knew him, I'd consider him a friend. Of course not like I just went bankrupt then I call him up going "Can I stay over?"...but still, he's been a good guy to me, and I respected him and that...so yea, I'd consider him a friend. Any Brokeback Mountain jokes, and I will cut off the thing that defines your gender! Nah, I'm playing but please, it's not a subject you should make fun of, because it's not like that, and if you think it was like that, then you just might be a loser freak.

But I'm broke beyond recognition, now it's just begging my parents for scraps for say the PP Genesis bootlegged controller, which again, I REally NEED.

Yea, but the jokes rocked (you should've seen MadTV at the Oscars

) and some were damn blunt!

True, true.

I might lend somebody on the forums money if I already knew them in real-life. Like, if one of my friends at school signed up here.
