Have it display all text in Klingon.
Back in the early 90s, I worked on a friends 286 and put one of the joke programs on it that would make the display be upside down. I figured I would get a call from him and tell him how to fix it, but the next time I*snip*

Damn, truly a 4 way tie IMHO today. But, only one vote. This may be the BEST poll question ever.

I hear you. This is only from $$ my Mom has sent for Christmas, and other things like the Orange Pi and the Thumby (which came today) are Christmas gifts from wifey. Ole' Kuron is back to being #BAF (Broke as Fuck)

There was a similar model by another company, but it was only dual core.

Keep in mind, hand issues and hands that cramp super easy.
Although they were not great for me, it was nice Nintendo tried to cater to every type of game and every style of controller, so somebody could use what they were comfortable with.

Always preferred joysticks myself. I can do joypads (original NES weren't bad, although the corners cut into your palms), but I need to find something comfortable to hold. Lots of issues with my hands for many, many years.
My old joypads were great,*snip*

I had to look up the Game Cube controller. I never had a Game Cube, that is even WORSE than the N64 one. Dear God! Looks like something from a South Park spoof.

Yes, really. Only exception was the N64 as it took a while for third party controllers to appear. One of the most convoluted controllers ever where you needed to be a contortionist to use.
Original NES ones were okay, comfortable and reliable, but I qui*snip*

I am sure the third-party ones would be cleared if they paid a licensing fee, but still. I am not sure I ever liked the default controllers for any system. I would always use third-party ones and usually have extension cords for the controllers.

I did not have a console when Raiders of the Lost Ark came out for the 2600, but my cousin did. He got it for Christmas and we were allowed to stay up until 4am playing it. Great game for its time!

Yes and if you do not want it showing in the post, the direct link will suffice.
Otherwise it will have to be embedded. Whoever is making the post would naturally be using the embedded link in their post.

ANd those two urls are the EXACT same video as is on the site when it is viewed directly.
If you are posting the link on another site and want the video to appear, you are going to need to use the embed URL, won't you?
