    Sorry for the crap pictures, kitchen was a mess so had to make do with the poorly lit mancave.

    Saw this pop up for €155 including PAL copies of Soul Calibur and Sega Rally and had to grab it.

    Box is a little beat up and it's missing the handle as most are, along with a second disc and cardboard tray. Going rate for a near complete box seems to be around €300 or so although most of them are in Japan and risky customs wise. I reckon this is the best I'll get without spending €350-400+

    1 of 1,500 :D

    Finally piced up a dead flash speccy, have a +3 and Spectrum+ for a good while but never had the original 48K until now.
    Also got a divMMC for it, which is great piece of kit :)

    Been chasing for one of these on ebay for a fair while but the price can get out of hand on some of them.

    Mind me asking where you picked it up ?

    My Famicom has an unmodded cart slot so I've to play it like this for now. Still, amazing to finally have an original copy.

    Mostly likely bad RAM in the C128

    Thats what I am thinking, or maybe a bad PLA chip.

    Been a while since I posted anything. But I have a few games bought and currently on the way from the States.

    In the meantime this is what has arrived so far

    EDIT: I came back to upload more pics of my copy of MGS Integral. I wasn't really paying attention to what I actually got in the post and just wanted to take a quick photo so, here's a soft update.

    Got these 2 records last week. Managed to get the limited edition policenauts.

    On a side note I have to get some proper vinyl storage. Something with a lid, has anyone here gotten anything that could suit? I had a look at flight cases but I just want something to protect them really

    Double refund?

    Not pictured, a fresh Scart for the Dreamcast and a boxed Vibration Pack.

    Grabbed this Master System. It was a little pricier than I would have liked but it will be a Christmas gift from herself. There isn't many of them going and a good condition boxed one is practically non existent so pulled the trigger on an unboxed one.

    Got this today from the user formally known as EnterNow

    And thus concludes my Sega mega drive binge for the last month. I'll throw up a picture of all my recent gets in a while

    Just won another Sony PVM aswell, one of the 9inch ones. Got it for £36 which isn't bad at all I don't think

    Bit blurry but I bought a DDR school poster from the 50s to stick in the big blank space over the cabs, I think it works!

    Also got the BVM and LMD hooked back up again.

    The cheap ones!

    Kof neowave. Guilty gear isuka, demolishfist and some horse racing one


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭TechnoFreek


    Can't get over how small the Atomiswave is compared to the Naomi, given they're practically the same system

    So I dug out my Gameboy Advance SP - after about 10 years it still had some battery life, but I had no charger.
    I ordered a charger and played a few of my DMG-01 games onit, but now I've decided that I really want Advance Wars (and lots other on it) so I've just ordered an EZ Flash Omega - it's a lot cheaper than everdrive and should be fine to scratch that particular itch.
    I post up some pics as soon as I get it !

    You can also stick a NES/Famicom emulator on those things, those games work really well on the GBA.

    I have an EZFlashIV cart and use it in my GBMicro. It's especially useful there because while the GBMicro is a nice device, it is GBA only, so if you want to play GB/C games you are out of luck, unless you run one an emulator from the little flash cart, works like a charm!

    Haven't heard of this Omega cart. Decent sounding cart. I've an old ez flash advance. Wasn't tempted to upgrade until I saw this.

    So I'm getting it from a UK seller for 33 pounds, postage included on eBay UK

    Do you want a link to it?

    Got this beast during the week :)

    44400094684_38851d0bc0_c.jpg

    Got the cab from Kevin2me and picked up the front cp on UKVAC, will need a fair amount of work to finish off.
    Needs a lot of wiring done so will probably convert to Jamma & Mame, not too interested in the JVS stuff.

    Could do with a respray as well, still deciding between all black or restore to original colour.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭TechnoFreek


    Very nice dude. Looking forward to the restoration log!

    Has some of the monitor surround been painted or missing?
    Didn't think it was black all around

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,146 ✭✭✭CathalDublin

  • Registered Users Posts: 7,517 ✭✭✭Inviere
