    That Satellaview is glorious, if it was a bit later in the year I'd be all over it. :(

    Was so tempted by the 3d printer, but pipped to the post on it. And I'd probably have been hung by my wife...

    Megaman The Wily Wars - PAL Version

    350 Euro

    Will leave it just on the marketplace until tonight to give anyone here a chance to nab it, and then stick it up on adverts as well for a higher price.

    Hopefully can sell it here, as adverts is getting worse(was offered 5 euro a week for the satellaview :0/ )

    I don't think an arcade cabinet in a the office of a Clinical Nurse Manager grade 3 with responsibility for attendance management would really work tbh.
    I have enough problems just getting leave to put a poster up!

    I know.
    In my defence, there are workplaces that encourage the use of arcade machines, pool tables, bean bags to create a relaxed but ultimately productive atmosphere.
    The HSE is not one of those places :(

    Just say "Its for the kids"

    Must be difficult to get an Egret 12button CP.
    Cant be that hard to get one made if you have the measurements?
    And then Artwork , I'm sure Olly could make a 2P one http://www.arcadeartshop.com/product/taito-egret-ii-1-player-control-panel-overlay/

    Debating whether to let mine go too (to fund something else rather than due to spousal pressure! :D). Decisions decisions. Actually must do an inventory check on all the extras I got for it over the years like those FrancoB mods etc.
