As I'm waiting for someone from Messiah to contact me, I figure I'll ask this here:
I purchased a Generation NEX system after listening to a segment on Retrogaming Radio. I don't want my NES to wear out and I got a deal on the wireless controls and the arcade stick (which I love). I played some games to test on it (Burgertime and Tengen Tetris) and all was well.
A couple weeks later I hooked the NEX upstairs in the game room and I played some Super Mario Bros 2. After playing for about a half hour I shut the system down and pulled the cartridge out. A strange smell wafted from the system. It kinda smelled like hot plastic but it was a bit more acrid. I sniffed my cartridge and it too had the same smell. I plugged SMB2 into my real NES and played that for a bit. No weird smells from the NES deck and the smell on the cartridge was fading so that kinda tells me it's the NEX. It's a smell that you can notice if your head is around the unit, not just in it.
Has anyone experienced this with their NEX?
