Got this in the last hour, again no physical hold of it yet, but this is the seller's pic - an IBM PS/2



The IBM collection is beginning to draw to a close..

Just curious, are all those machines here in Ireland or abroad? Was just thinking the postage much cost more than the item itself if they were abroad.

They're in England but I go there every few weeks so I'll collect them while I am over.

It took me about a year to get that one at a price I was willing to pay (I think it was 75 pounds or something like that).

Almost gave in and dropped crazy money (if £75 isn't crazy enough as is!). Nobody wants to let the thing go cheap. Good reason for it though, it's a brilliant game.

Technically you gave him to her and she gave him back to you after 9 months

First world gamer problems number 367


Nothing worse than having to finish a fighter repeatedly with characters you dont like till you can play with the one you want.
Actually no, wait ..there is.



.




WHYYY!?!!



sadly I may have picked the worst combination of two characters to play with.
I dont know what was wrong with the old "finish with character X to get character y" method of 1 and 2.
Still though , Tekken 5's bonus tekken arcade 1-3 and an unlockable rom of starblade included is nice.

Few bits arrived this morning.

First up is some new Seimitsu buttons and a tube of lube for my sticks.
I currently have Seimitsu sticks and Sanwa buttons but wanted to test out Seim buttons after having tried ondafly's. Decided to try screw-in rather than snap-in this time and probably won't bother changing the Start buttons as they're a fecker to get out.



Seimitsu Vs Sanwa:



This is my second Raiden PCB, was only €50 shipped from the States so couldn't pass up a chance to have a backup board.

Hard to tell from this angle but it has a little daughter board of sorts sitting on top bottom left, not sure what it's function is if anything:







Delighted with this chap too, Strikers 1945, got II the other week but want to give this a bash first.







Apologies for the reflections.

Actually need to get some more pcb feet and source some anti-static bubblewrap - bit expensive on ebay.
