    Listed at €45 on the Smyths website, but doesn't seem to be a facility to pre-order it there.
    (That's the standard edition, not the warm-neck edition)

    Ever wonder if a drum which could play pacman existed?
    Wonder no more!

    They could at least have re-wired the buttons to an external CP and hid the plug'n play inside somewhere.

    I am not able to post the URL link here as I don't have enough posts in boards yet?

    Anyhow do a search on Deal Extreme for "Wired snes interface game controller". They have new SNES controllers for just €7.50 incl post to Ireland. I guess they are Chinese made copies. You can even change the colour to the US grey/purple style.

    €7.49 is for a pair not a single controller.

    Should be able to get the real deal for about the same price. The Snes pads are really great for lasting the test of time too, any ones I've picked up over the years tend to still work great.

    They seem to have their own Famicom/Nes flash carts too, with the attractive name of "Jack DIY Ram" and it includes an SD card slot.
    Looks like an Everdrive clone, the giveaway being the word "Everdrive" embossed along the base of the cart.
    It's selling at €65.44 a pop, not bad at all.

    I got a super ufo 8 from them before, less the fifty delivered. Delivery took about two weeks.

    I wouldn't be in a rush getting a Famicom/Nes Everdrive clone - if the original developer releases an update for more mappers he could I'm sure could easily blockout any clone carts so no updates for you...maybe...now if it was the Megadrive/Genesis/N64 or SNES cart then I wouldn't care too much

    I wouldn't touch the everdrive clones, they're not far off the price of the real ones. As Kerbdog said, you will get zero help on the Everdrive forum if you have any problems.

    Oh, I know, I already have all the Everdrives I want, if I need one I'll get the real deal.
    Don't want to buy an IP like and Everdrive that allows you to play stolen IP!

    People like that annoy me. "They're rare, but I'd rather smash them into kindling than take a lower offer". Surely money in your pocket is better than a load of broken up cabinets sitting in your back garden....

    He seems more interested in selling his X-Factor worthy sob story than selling the cabinets.

    Yeh thats a black and white Taito Space Invaders, going from that Control Panel anyways, cant see the cpo on the others but they all look the same. if the pcbs are there, they will be 3 layer non jamma boards. the monitors will be 13" black and white, more than likely with some savage space invaders screen burn too!

    Noticed at the weekend that the RAGE is selling a copy of Probotector on the MD for just shy of 100 euro.

    Makes the copy I got there for twenty five a year or two ago seem like a very nice bargain indeed :)
