Yeahhhhhh Cadash!! And someone is playing with the GOAT the priestess! As it should be
I resisted buying the spinner controller for ages, but I just saw it at a decent price while on vacation in New York. Looking forward to spinning when I get back home.
@“docky”#p109376 It‘s a good one! Has a good weight to the spinner and a nice feel for the Orb. Can’t wait until it's easier to hook it up to various MiSTer paddle/trackball games

@“TheFragranceOfDarkCoffee”#p109379 yeah! I really hope people figure out solutions for it in the future as it seems too nice a controller to be limited to the Egret ii mini. Nevertheless I’m excited to play Arkanoid !
@“docky”#p109376 What was your definition of a good price? Because I‘d love to get one, but then I’d have to factor in shipping to Australia, then whatever currency to AUD conversion. And I already have a controller that has a spinner and trackball in it, but it's far more unwieldly than that cute little thing!
Edit: NVM, I'm an idiot, just noticed the price. Still kind of expensive, but I know it's a good price relative to what it costs normally. Nice find!
Edit #2: [url=https://www.amazon.com/ININ-Taito-EGRET-Mini-Compatible/dp/B0BNVZMR3V]It's $200 AUD shipped[/url]. So not entirely unattainable, but that sounds like a purchase if I get a solid tax refund or something.
@“docky”#p109376 Price tag told me exactly where you got it and I guess I know what I will be picking up tomorrow.
@“robinhoodie”#p109473 Keen eye! Hopefully I didn’t nab the last one!! They didn’t have any Egret II Minis in stock but I already have that.
@"Shaneus"#p109461 It’s $108 USD because of sales tax. Not bad for a sealed unit with no postage headaches.

@“ogremode”#p110425 taiyo is by far my favorite mangaka !
Holy shnaps the latest SFC tournament was held on the Kero Kero Fighter mini game event of Taito’s under-appreciated gem Magical Date. What a genius idea.

This along with @"exodus"#3 mention of Gunbuster on [Retronauts](https://retronauts.com/article/2033/retronauts-episode-521-taito-part-iv) not too long ago has me wanting to play this game.
@“tomjonjon”#p115234 they made that video because of my Retronauts mention, apparently, so Taito owes me one dollar
Oh a commercial for Bujingai, that was mentioned on the PS2 episode, I've been meaning to check it ou–
is that fucking Malice Mizer?
