    Thanks I'm delighted with it great to have the room for stuff again. Getting a projector in there and it's wired already for surround sound.

    I bought some flowers yesterday, the pots we had reminded me of the pipes in Mario so I sprayed them green. They came out pretty cute imo. Might make a piranha plant out of hama beads or something in with them.

    Megadrive 1 PSU, the most useful of all.

    Works with the Famicom, Super Famicom, PC Engine and of course the Megadrive :D

    So the Famicom is 100v, the adapter is 240v?
    Is there some sort of step down happening?

    There's no need for a step down because the power supply is external. The megadrive power supply outputs the same power as a famicom one.

    I've posted it before so I'll only mention it this time
    Gamesworld staff managed to kill two N64s by bypassing the stepdowns and using a travel adaptor.
    The stepdown was there, the staff just forgot to use it.
    They must have been in a hurry to play Shadow of the Empire!

    Here's what I had already to match my Mario pipe pots. Had to move them over from the window just for the photo. Ignore the space invader, he's just filling space lol.

    But that's not all because there's a lot more to get excited about, as the full set will be compatible with ALL Amiga models having Mitsumi switches only (Except Amiga 1000), multiple keyboard layouts available, and multiple colours available including: Amiga original dual colour, Black CDTV (with white lettering), plus all other colours are matching colours to the New Amiga 1200 cases & Special Editions

    You know you've a problem when most of your tracking app is Steve Bailey packages :)

    Might take a break from buying from him, it's too damn easy to spend a good chunk of cash!

    2 Steve's are double the trouble.

    Hopefully someone can help me out with this one.
    Just built a PC out of bits and pieces that I had lying around here solely for Emulation of older games consoles--Its a core2quad,8gb ram,500gb harddrive,8800gtx graphics card--everything is running great on it but my problem is getting a controller working.

    Trying to get retroarch up and running with a PS4 controller.Controller is recognised and working fine but the mapping of the buttons for any emulator is driving me insane.
    I there an easy way to set it up or would anyone recommend another program other than retroarch?
