    Also got something not entirely gaming related but incredibly cool IMO. (I have a massive thing for 90s Manga releases!)

    A Manga Entertainment promo banner from the 90s. Interesting thing about this one is it came straight from Manga HQ offices in the UK.

    Be a fair few of these coming through :pac:

    Preordered it back in June, this greeted me when I arrived home this-morning :)

    I'm actually very surprised at how well the gamepad feels. I thought it was going to feel cheap but much to my astonishment I could swear it was the same as the real thing.
    I'm doing that thing where I'm turning on a game, playing for 3 or 4 minutes then trying out another because I'm too excited to sit with one game :P
    You'd swear I never played a SNES before lol

    I heard Nintendo are planning on making more of these so I'm happy more and more people that are interested will more than likely get one. Very snazzy piece of kit.

    Doing more squats and pushups in the training section at the start than I should actually be doing in real life..

    Picked up a SNES Mini & a Nintendo Switch :)

    Still haven't unpacked the 'tv' part of the Switch, so far its a dedicated Zelda handheld. Are there any other decent games out for it at the moment ?

    I'm very conflicted on a SNES mini, on one hand, emulation or a SNES + every drive is a more robust solution, but on the other, I don't own a SNES

    Golf Story is great, €15 on the eShop. Stardew Valley releases Thursday if you've not played it.

    Get a Snes and an Everdrive, it can't be beat. Snes mini is just a bit of fun really, I wouldn't see it as a replacement.

    Main reason I bought mine was just to see how it looked over HDMI.

    Found these Sonic pencils today, it's a really cool container, sure I had to have it, it's Sonic!
    Sorry it's not lined up so well, just wanted to show the pattern better.

    Be sure not to mix those up. Try not to play with the roll and no teeth marks on the Snes Mini please.

    Shoulda kept it new and sealed. Worthless now...
    Edit: nevermind, it's just a repo of the original Centra version.

    Any of you guys have experience with Sony LMDs? They're the LCD successor to the PVM.

    Interesting thing is they come in 4:3. Just picked up a 20 inch one with a flight case as a matter of interest.
