Yeah Agreed I think this game is becoming a maximum time, which is something very interesting.

great runs on Jaws guys, years ago when I got my 416 that was back then the second fastest time in the world. Many many years ago before you guys even started to be running, but the funny thing is you guys are taking this game to a time where no crazy finger speed needs to be involved, and no killing yourself. I think it's absolutely awesome you found a way to also avoid the bonus, I'm looking forward to getting myself into the threes really soon really impressive!

Because all you people like to do is argue, this is not a debate, this was a question, I know the truth is things from after the 90s are junk and anything before IF taken care of even abused last.

But see the question was HAVE you ever broke a reset button, nothing more or less.

It was a lost debate before it started...

Nothing wrong or crazy about my PROVEN facts, things today are cheap garbage made to break, old was made tough with quality and built to last.

Hope you all had a happy forth, I lit off my fake M80S junk nothing like the old school ones

I will just say this in over and close to having a 35 year old NES controller it's never broke, it has never needed any repair etc.
my 1978 Intellivision still works no repairs
my Atari same

However lol

My PS3 broke several times
my will MOFG don't even want to ask there
my AC as a child handed from my Granni lasted 50 years till it finally died, since I have replaced two ac's

Like I said before old stuff just does not break, now OF course everything EVENTUALLY can break, my point was old stuff doesn't break under normal wear and tear.

I can drop my Intellivision from the top of a stair case and it might crack and still work, I bump into my 4oz new junk TV it will break lol.

Anyways back to my original questions has anyone ever had a reset button on an original old school console break?

Thanks again

I don't think anything but I will end this here, nothing today after ps2 unless u put it in a glass case will last, there is no comparison to the way new junk is made as opposed to old school, this is true in homes, cars, electronics etc.....

This is such a false statement it's almost comical.

If you think old stuff doesn't break, then you clearly haven't had to swap the rubbers out on a d-pad of an NES or SNES controllers. There are sellers online that make a business off of refurbishing used NES/SNES controllers and replacing worn down d-pad rubbers and buttons. Sure, you may not actually physically break/crack an NES controller unless you hit it with a hammer due to the fact that it's basically a hunk of solid plastic, but old stuff still breaks just as much as new stuff. Control sticks on a PS2 or PS4 controller can still get worn down the same way a d-pad did 30 years ago; the decade in which the console or it's accessories were released has no correlation to how likely any of it is to break after years of use. People tend to think that newer controllers break more easily than older ones, but that's simply because controllers for newer systems have more components and more functions than an NES controller from 40 years ago. With all those extra features, there's more of a chance that something will go wrong. I'm not excusing say faulty 3rd Party stuff, but I've had very few 1st party controllers/accessories break unless I accidentally drop them or something or use them a lot while doing runs.

As to your original question, yes, my AV Famicom had a broken reset button. I had to open the console and clean it and make sure all of my connections were intact before it started working again. It had broken after years of use, and thankfully the fix was just a nice clean to the inside of the console.

Old stuff don't break UNLESS u intentionally break it.... but thanks for your speech on this very good read

Oldschool original stuff DON'T break, I have had my SAME nes controller for almost 30 years.
I have had my Intellivision since 1979 and its handed to me from 1978.

Old stuff don't break, NEW stuff breaks its all junk and poorly made.

Back to my original question for those that USE real original equipment, HAVE you ever broke a reset button yes or no??????

I rebuild my controllers once a year but, with speed running I would imagine that some of the best dedicated runners, are replacing reset buttons? Not counting emulators

Collectively as a whole I have accomplished more on consoles than anyone, score wise and individual, if losers and cheaters like Billy Mitchell can claim player of the century, since I have done thousands to his two records IF he ever had any. I decided to call myself the consoleplayerofthecentury And hope to make that mark In speed runs in some form.

I have always been mostly a high scorer, many speed runs too but I have noticed, it gets to a breaking point where the game appears to figure you out and screw you in any way, to stop your win. I have had glitches and of course just normal game play where AI doesn't line up in your favor, or a shot doesn't fall.

For example say you have a basketball game and you see people playing it on certain settings 0-100 but, there's no settings in the general rules or settings. Now does that mean it's open game? In other words does it matter if it's losers or winners out, does it matter how long of a length you choose for the periods? I think if the rules are not specified it should be open game tell me your thoughts?

Well it's a good discussion regardless, this is not about who we piss off it's about doing things as professional and right as possible. I hope something good comes of this.
