Jet Get Radio!!!! post here when you get something new!

I rang the number and got through to Enda Kenny. Weird conversation!

Anyway I got this in the post this morning, irem multi kit, very fast, only 3 days from the States. Marked down as 20 dollars, still had to pay 30 euro customs...

Smaller kit than I thought, two pcbs, a bunch of eproms, a gal and an mcu. Just need to get the rollup pack burned to the roms and should be all set. Will need to get a burner first though so I'll probably get it finished in about 5 years.

Bit of a grail get for me, well after many years of looking out for a reasonably priced Amiga 1000 I gave up and paid going rates.

Its a pretty good one though and complete with correct keyboard & mouse (they alone go for stupid money). It needs a good cleaning and retrobriting, the keyboard is the worst part. But everything works fine on it so the only thing I need to do is change the RIFA XY caps in the power supply before they pop.

Will probably do a few quality-of-life mods like add a kickstart rom as you need to boot the A1000 from a floppy before you get to the familiar insert Workbench disc screen.

Probably also add some RAM and IDE controller so it'll autoboot to WB 1.3 from a CF card but will keeping the stock 68000 CPU in it I think.

The all important developer signatures :)

No the monitor is my own one, the Amiga just came with the keyboard, mouse and a kickstart floppy. The mice for these go over 100 just because the connector is at 90 degrees rather the straight like all the others, daft...

The box beside it is my multi power supply, outputs +5v, +9v, +12v, -12v, 9AC so powers all my various retro computers instead of trusting the original power supplies.

Yeah nice little device that. I see there's a new firmware out for it today too

I’ll check on my RetroTink once I get the boy to bed. Pretty sure it’ll be fine.

Class! 👌

Would love to know the context in which that kind of stuff ends up in a charity shop. I mean, hopefully without vengeful exes or premature endings coming into play.

By the way, I went to CASA on Capel St after you mentioned it last time and all I found was a copy of Brain Training on the DS, was hoping lightning wold strike twice.

Found three more, Chronic Trigger still sealed.

Some faded yellow 4.99 stickers on them, must have been where the second hand shop got the prices.

No shop details listed on the sticker but they look familiar. Any idea if that was an old GameStop sticker?

Got a big haul the weekend. Its a friends collection ill sell for him now thst hes moved away permanently

some nice boxed consoles in there I'll hopefully keep for myself

Ah feck it I was gonna ask about the Master System! Had a hard time trying to find a clean boxed one before Covid.

Yeah its still available

Just picked up 2 fantastic games from @Corholio

@cornholio509

Latest get for me, arriving next week is a Sega Cycraft. It's the rare Initial D version too, and can also play F Zero AX. Anyone ever play it? I doubt there's any more left here.

Had to sell off a large portion of the collection roughly 50% due to a change in circumstances earlier this year but adding a few bits again, definitely the most mental get so far for me, looking to do something community based next year and want as many DLX Sega and rare cabinets as possible, so this is a super cool one. Definitely the best motion experience I've ever played, was seen as the sequel to the R360 at the time.

Seemed to be one of the last in public operation too which is a pitty, I actually got to play the exact cabinet a few months ago coincidentally and seen it for sale recently.

Now that is rare beast and amazing get, take it the screen was switched? What size was in it originally, both fzero and I'd would be mad in that
