This RECORD is INSANE – 10 UNIQUE things about it!

Troy Nelson from KEXP joins me to talk about one of the craziest and unique vinyl records ever made: Jack White’s Lazaretto Ultra LP. There are over 10 unique things about it:

-180 gram vinyl
-2 vinyl-only hidden tracks hidden beneath the center labels
-1 hidden track plays at 78 RPM, one plays at 45 RPM, making this a 3-speed record
-Side A plays from the inside out
-Dual-groove technology: plays an electric or acoustic intro for “Just One Drink” depending on where needle is dropped. The grooves meet for the body of the song.
-Matte finish on Side B, giving the appearance of an un-played 78 RPM record
-Both sides end with locked grooves
-Vinyl pressed in seldom-used flat-edged format
-Dead wax area on Side A contains a hand-etched hologram the first of its kind on a vinyl record
-Absolutely
-Different running order from the CD/digital version
-LP utilizes some mixes different from those used on CD and digital version

Game Sack – The Neo Geo X Portable System – Review

Game Sack Episode 79 – So they crammed the Neo Geo on a handheld device and are selling it for $200. Is it worth it?

The Neo Geo X (NGX) is a handheld video game console manufactured by Tommo Inc., licensed by SNK Playmore, and the latest console released as part of the company’s Neo Geo brand. Information about the Neo Geo X was first reported in January 2012 and later confirmed in March.[1][2] It is the first Neo Geo system to be released since the discontinuation of the brand in 2004 and the third Neo Geo handheld device, following the 1999 release of the Neo Geo Pocket Color, which was supported until 2001.

UPDATE: We made a video about the firmware update for this thing here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLjm56FmUGQ
