What Products Do Classic Gamers Need/Want?

racketboy · Post by **racketboy** » Thu Jun 02, 2005 11:34 pm

I'm looking to expand the amount of gaming product that I offer.
Right now I only have Saturn modchips and RAM carts. I could deal in similar items, but I am also open to ideas of products that are completely different.

Any ideas of products would be appreciated. They don't even have to exists yet

Accessories?
Decorations?
Organization?

Thanks for your help!

Various system link cables, they're notoriously hard to find, since few people ever sought to play linked games.. u_u

At least I got to play linked Bushido Blade and Armored Core. I can die satisfied. Oh wait, not yet, I still have tNO CARRIER&%O&*^%%%

Old system's power chords, hook up chords and maybe more modernized stuff like better quality cables for your neo geo or saturn SVIDEO and what not.

I agree with Raijin Z that link cables for the different systems would be sweet. I'd also suggest whatever retro gaming stuff you can get your hands on.

Maybe you should start carrying more modern mod chips, like the ones for ps2 and the box, as well as the mod chip for the cube; I'd buy the cube one!!!

link cables, and more saturn stuff like the vcd cart, netlink adapter, and stuff like that.

maybe some controllers for the systems and stuff like that.

Never under-estimate apparel. People snatch T-shirts, hats, and just about anything else you wear that's VG related, up like hot cakes.

I want a T-shirt hat!

If it's Dreamcast, I've already got a lockdown on the market. No love there.

While I realize that's where the money is, I'm staying away from modern chips for various reasons.

Great ideas though guys -- keep it up!

First party stuff like controllers are going to be hard to come buy at good prices, but I'll see what I can come up with. Maybe I can get my hands on some good deals!

But then it wouldn't be first party (from Sega themselves) -- most people are really picky about their controllers and would only want 1st party goods

Loved SNK and their fighting games back in the day, so anything snk or neo geo will be fine with me.

BTW, quick question about snk: have they ever made a 3d figting game or have they been stuck in the past making 2d ones?
Don't you think by now that they should modernize their fighting games?

I also like the idea of video-game apparel. They usually sell rather well, elsewhere.
