    Haven't bought any retro games in a long time. Got these off of a lad on Facebook.
    Anyone notice the font for Everybody's Golf 2 is the exact same font as the original GTA?

    Picked up a bigbox Amiga eventually, its a basic enough 2000 at the moment but have a few extras on the way for it :)
    Surprisingly usable as it is though, spent a few hours with Delux Paint 3 (badly) drawing dinosaurs trying to keep small ones entertained !!

    Always adored the pristine white box for GT4

    It's probably my favourite of the franchise, apart from the original one.

    I'll have to go back to it. I have fond memories of GT3 but don't remember spending much time with GT4, although that's partially because at the time I ramped up quantity over quantity and got so many average to decent games for under €30 back when Play.com was just a decent place for cheap, new media.

    The HD support is class for the time.

    Robo V Terminator was great. Sountrack was class and it was nice and gorey

    Have you ever played any of the prototypes of it online?

    I fired up a random one of it a few years ago just to see if there were any differences to the final version - one of them had flying shmup type levels!

    They were really bad but such a 'wtf?!' moment.

    There's also a cheat code to put scantly clad female enemies back into it and some extra death animations. Another one I didn't know about back in the day at all.

    Pause the game and enter;

    Violent Mode C - B - A - B - B - A - B - B - C - B - B - C - C - B - B - C - B - C - A - C - C - A - A - A - B - B - B - A - C - A

    Picked up the Atomiswave from Felix the other day. Thanks very much again dude.

    Plays great, lovely monitor in it. Need some work though and a few bits and pieces. Not exactly sure what to do with it. Considering turning it into a 2 player 6 button cab for beat em up and fighters.

    Here is it next to it's candy brothers

    Picked this up last week from a lad on adverts.
    So far Ive taken 12 inches off the depth of it with a bench saw to make it fit into the room where its going.
    Ive cleaned up the glass facia and got canopy light working- restored both with glass paint over the bits that were scratched-came out ok.
    Installed new speakers in it and rewired the whole cabinet.
    Ive fitted back in the coin mechanism.
    Ive removed those ugly white button blankers and it looks like Ill be able to fit a standard size button layout and stick where the holes were by drilling only 3 more holes.

    I know its not the done thing but Ive a 23 inch led monitor that will fit almost exactly into the front panel glass layout.

    Im putting a windows pc into it with big box I think or else a PI but Im not sure yet.

    Nice little project since I may not have a job from Friday!!!

    you could put the 12" of the depth back onto the bottom

  • Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    The bottom of that cabinet is missing !


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,615 Mod ✭✭✭✭Hellrazer


    The bottom of that cabinet is missing !

    Thanks for the advice.
    Is that the piece it sits on? Or the piece that covers the coin slot?
    Ive already made a new bottom for it (the piece it sits on)
    Ill post pics later on of the work so far.


  • Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Yea the very bottom base.
    I was only joking.that machine was for sale here before.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,615 Mod ✭✭✭✭Hellrazer


    Its my first attempt - Ill be looking for more help once I get started... or should I say when Im scratching next week with no job!!

    Seems to be issues with deliveries to Ireland at the moment. Waiting some items from the UK over a week now and a chap in Finland said his post office refused to take the package. No deliveries to Ireland from there

    "2020" is as specific as it gets at the moment

    I nearly cried inside when I saw it myself, and I might get buyer's remorse next week when I see my payslip in comparison to what I normally get (thanks COVID)
    "2020" is as specific as it gets at the moment

    "Spring" 2020 is what a lot of sources say. How accurate they are I can't say, as I didn't read or hear the dev mention that window.

    Ordered clothes on the 18th it came on Saturday but think it was Nightline.

    I hadn't ordered much, a few things were a bit late but others were okay, but only half laying attention really since everything was cancelled I don't need them to arrive on time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,788 ✭✭✭Jack burton


    Courier companies might be different, I fecking hope they are.

    Have a pretty major Lazer steak order arriving this week. Only from UK though so should be ok.

    Going to sit on all my shirts now until this all blows over. Especially with post restricted to certain countries. Pretty crap really.
