Never heard of such a device - is it just needed because you don't have the discs and can load from SD card or something?

Yup, allows me to use an extensive collection of Amiga disk images without the read/write errors if I attempted to put them on disks. Steve SI has the same device but he has it all nicely modded into the case. I will do that eventually, but more parts are a coming! 8mb memory upgrade, Amiga-PS/2 mouse adapter, Competition Pro joystick and more!

8mb memory upgrade

For an A600? Where did you get that, if you don't mind me asking?

What kills me about this kind of thing (I'd have loved to get the Batman chess or vehicles ones) is the price.

Issue 1 - Only €2.99!
Regular price - €99.99 + vital organs

The regular price is €15. That's not so bad considering that's the amount you'd usually pay for a plastic model of this type and these are die cast metal.

So it's actually not that bad really, and you don't have to put it together yourself which is a big plus.

I've already subbed via their website anyway... all the Enterprises on chronological order will look awesome on a shelf.

Also in relation to the dining alone and being girlfriendless comment here's a picture of my fiancé from a few years ago:


Eat your words! :-)

Alright Grammar Nazi... the picture itself is from a few years ago. The fiancé was only made my fiancé last month. I'm still getting used to saying fiancé but I still rather like saying fiancé.

Fiancé.

Few random bits from the last week. Went to a car boot sale and picked up this bundle for €15. I think I have ridge racer 4 already but it might be missing the disc.



These were €1 a piece from charity shops. Max Payne even has the receipt in it from gamesworld back in 2002 for €34.99 used!



And finally, I've been popping into my local xtra vision stores regularly to see what's left. Most of the stuff has 50-80% off so well worth a look. They even have lots of N-Gage games too if that's your thing. Think it worked out at around €20 for all of these.

Here's my current fiance, Francis:

And her 5 friends?

Picked up Project Zero yesterday on Xbox. I've never played it, as I really dislike the original Xbox and only got one lately. I did, however, hear that it's scary as all feck.

Does she have a sister? I ask for purely scientific reasons I assure you.

Actually technically my first graphics card was an ISA peice of **** that could only output in 8bit colours.

Yeah don't ask...

Picked up 3 3DS games for the Gamestop yesterday for the grand sum of €8.88 x 3.
Got Pokemon Rumble, Starwing and Street Fighter.
Got home and realised I all ready have Street Fighter for the 3DS.
Never returned anything to Gamestop, what are they like? Just going to get credit towards Project X Zone or Tales of the Abyss.
