Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Why the megadrive versions? They are god awful.
Don't think there's any good way of playing the old games, there was a mortal kombat collection on the PS3 and Xbox 360 which had good emulation of the arcade games on it and is the best way to play these games. It might be on Xbox One through the backwards compatibility program. They are the last releases of the old games.
The megadrive consoles with the games are very poor standard and I really can only recommend to stay well away.
In all honesty they are pretty bad fighters in retrospect, get some Capcom or SNK games instead :pac:

I've gone to the dark side and bought a xbox one S.
Mostly just for the backwards compatibility so I'm not tied to a console that is about to explode.
That and Ninja Gaiden black and Radiant Silvergun are on the BC list.

“Making An Post Greedy Again”
It was UPS.
But like 65%ish tax on a coupe of records, some joke.
It's a Mortal Kombat and Transformers vinyl so hopefully they will be worth the wait. For anyone wondering, it was from think geek. I didn't buy from them in about 10 years and couldn't remember why, I suddenly remember

So, a local TKMaxx has these crappy NesClone consoles for sale, the ones with no games you know and all composite all the time.
I'm wondering if it would be simple enough turning it into a NES controller for the laugh....0 -

Opinions please. I like having a the boxes on display but I think it may be better having the consoles on display.
I might stick some controllers on the wall behind each console. I'll get broken/spare ones and take the wires out to make them look cleaner. The bottom shelf I'm not sure. I might prop up the accessories and have some games on display. Room is limited though.

Going rate on PVM's in Ireland these days? prefer not to bother with paying out the arse for shipping, really want to get back into the swing of things and rebuild everything I sold in 2016.
Can't even find a good trinitron locally on adverts!
How long is a piece of string!
Depends entirely on what comes up as they're pretty uncommon.
That recent 14 inch one I got was 120 on Donedeal. That's in and around what I've sold some of that size for in the past.
Only thing you can do really is bide your time, keep checking adverts/donedeal and hope that something comes up.
It's also worth subscribing to all of the alerts on dragonbox in case any show up for sale (they tend to sell out fast when they do)

I second the BVMs and PVMs on dragon box despite mine being thrown around by UPS but they refunded me 50 euro for minor cosmetic damage!0 -

Is the Atari 2600 portable worth getting?
It's €35 in Smyth's at the moment and certainly looks the part.
Amazon reviews suggest you’d be as well off with a bag of white dog ****. I needed a stocking filler and was looking at these, but moved on quick enough.0 -
