    German sellers are cool too, usually providing sweets, and the urge to invade Poland....

    Hello stranger!
    Seems like you're around forever yet only 299 posts!

    Nice get though!

    What was available for that computer, and when in the Atari computer timeline did it pop up?

    Also, a went into the CEX in Santry, spent an awesome €5 total on No One Lives Forever for the PS2 and Point Blank for the DS.
    I would have spent more too but Mrs Ciderman dragged me out of the shop :(

    The Falcon is quite rare and was only on sale from Atari for 1 year...


    The Falcon was released in late 1992 and subsequently cancelled in late 1993 as Atari Corp restructured itself to focus completely on the release and support of its newest product, the Atari Jaguar video game console.
    The Falcon's performance was not as great as it could have been, mostly due to Atari Corp.'s decision to put the 32-bit 68030 microprocessor on a 16-bit data bus. This was a side effect of the prototype system being based around the 68000, with the 68030 a separate expansion card. Apple Computer was widely criticised for making the same kind of decision with their Macintosh LC II computer.


    It runs nearly all ST software I think but there was some software for it mostly music software.....and a few games.....


    Always wanted on and when I saw it came with the original case it was going be mine.........


    Haven't been around lately, work and other issues have kept me away......


    Must pm you concerning the build of my mame cab....

    Galaxians for the Famicom arrived today as well, and plays nicely too.
    I must keep an eye out for Galaga and a few other Namco classics for the machine, they seem to be nice conversions.

    I got a really cool Persona tarot deck in a nifty velvet Attack on Titan pouch, they're like credit cards, plasticy but really handy because I was worried they'd get bent and i got a Nanako figure.

    Any chance you'll bring them to Kaizo Con and do my reading? :p

    You could set up a stall!


    We all know how well my reading would go...

    You know I was thinking of something like that for Brocon! Lol I'm useless at remembering the meanings, can only remember a few. The deck I used is different to a normal deck as well, otherwise I'd love to do it.

    Don't really mind about the SE, but even the bog standard game is hard to come across these days (hurts when I see it so easily available in the States)! What site was selling them?

    Xenoblade, nice, I have one on order at the moment, but, its second hand and I have a red controller already anyway.

    Here lads, whats the crack with the Gameboy player, why the hell is it so expensive now! I have the expansion thingy but I cant find a disc anywhere thats under a crazy £40. Wish I didnt sell mine on a few years back :(

    Also, I must should have things I have picked up later tonight for ya's.

    I just reserved one in Ashbourne, going to nip up and get it.
    Seeing as I already have the standard copy this one could go someway to paying for the PS4!

    I called GS, just to see, and they are offering €20 on trade, with no consideration for the special edition.
    I see CEX are going to €25 on trade.

    Buying to just flip it later for a profit, now I know how all those PS4 buyers felt back in December :(

    I see some of the Argos branches have Beat the Beat for the Wii for 8.99!
    If someone lives near a stockist please pick it up for me!
    PM me and we'll come to an arrangement!

    I had to get a Player disk for my GB Player a year or two ago, the console was NTSC though and I sold it on, bought the PAL bootdisk somewhere for OK money and bobs your in-law.

    I hope my reservation comes into stock...

    Really? My friend Andrew from the states is telling me it's rarer than hens teeth even after the Gamestop reprint that they sold for $80.

    Yeah, you can order copies off Video Games Plus at the moment! https://www.videogamesplus.ca/product_info.php?products_id=19956

    Anyway, reserved that Drogheda copy, hopefully will be able to scab a lift over the next 48 hours. Probably even worth the train journey for that price!

    As a complete surprise I now have, on the seat next to me, Xenoblade Chronicles with the controller, all sealed and lovely!
    Which is nice.
    Thanks Andrew!
