    Nice, at least there's plenty of value there, unlike those chancers selling an RPi with a couple of AliExpress bits and calling it a "product" and charging accordingly.

    I could throw in some unbranded Chinese Snes controllers and double the price you mean? :o

    It’s a 120GB model, these are all exploitable. You can obviously then add external storage if needed

    And you can easily swap out the internal drive for a larger one too

    129 feedback with no negative. I fear every time I sell something I'll just catch someone in a bad mood. Some adverts buyers are sound, others less so.

    Adverts are usually pretty ok with having stupid feedback removed, think I've had to do it once or twice in the past. Half surprised the PS3 hasn't sold yet, there was a time you'd pay multiples of the asking price to get a modded PS3. Suppose most have moved on to the current gen consoles now really.

    It's the time of the year unfortunately, bad time to be selling stuff :(

    I'm still interested in nabbing it from you by the way, just have my new kitchen going in at the end of the month, so trying to see if I can squeeze a PS3 in too!

    Cyberleads are so ugly they're almost cool alright, I really like the DMD on the top.

    His prices have indeed been coming down. Nearly fell off my chair when I saw him selling Aero tables and SC19s for under 1.5k.

    It's pretty cool, I like the weird style. 80's but from late 90's!

    That scrolling topper is the business, has great potential like leaving reminders for yourself :p

    Doooo it you loon!! :D Never thought I'd see one of them in the country


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,835 ✭✭✭geotrig


    They don't get a lot of love, like a lot of namco cabs but they are unique.
    A lot of people who have them and who have various other cabs really rate them for playing angle and height. They sit a bit higher around Cp I think iirc. It was definitely something like that anyway.lol

    Just be aware they are not rotateable. And a cyberlead2 has tried sync but would probably cost more because of it.
    I think Ronny was pushing it a bit with the plastic damage(altough patchable) and price on that one though.
    Some good info on the topper and I'm fairly sure there was a few threads about it also

    What gripes me about Ronnie is his shipping cost. He's making a tidy sum on it definitely.

    What's he charging these days ?
    For what it's worth it was something like 225 ish for me last year for a cab from Germany. Cheapest I could get at the time by far. Still a pain though.

    It's only because we send out a good few pallets with work and you can get pallets shipped for a good bit cheaper than that. Maybe not where he is from though so who knows.

    Yeah same here, the problem I seem to come across is it's easier and cheaper to organise at the shippers side, when you try an get something collected from another country the pricing seems to change

    Just inherited 2 ps2`s (Fat versions)
    Theres no controllers with them and only 1 power cable.

    They do have the display cables however.

    Both are powering on and both are working fine.


    Giving them away free to any of the regulars here who can collect in Maynooth
    (Have to give something back as you lot have helped me loads over the years)

    Might suit someone to mod etc.

    Ok, job done.

    Latest RetroPie
    Hard Drive will automount on boot, and standby after 5mins of inactivity
    Configured with Xbox One controller and usb cable (you can use a different type though)
    The following systems are ready to play with snip installed:

    Nes, Snes, Famicom Disk System, Master System, Megadrive, SG1000, GameBoy, GameBoy Colour, Gameboy Advance, Arcade, PC Engine and PC Engine CD, Sega CD, 32X, Atari 2600, Atari 7800, GameGear, NeoGeo Pocket, NeoGeo Pocket Colour. You can add more at your own leisure

    I've added a folder on the hard drive called ARCHIVE - this contains non-curated snip for a lot of the above systems, so you won't have to trawl through the net to find roms to add them...you can transfer them to the right folders and they'll be automatically added to the main menu systems. Use WinSCP to do this, it's very very easy.

    I've set up and configured scanlines, as per the previously linked tutorial.

    I didn't do any rom scraping, as it takes ages when there's a good few roms, so this can be done very easily by using the start button menu when in emulation station - check the tutorial I linked to previously as it covers doing this in one of the steps.

    I think you need to slightly overclock these for PS1 performance, and that'd be the upper limit (Jag, Saturn, PS2, Dreamcast not a hope)
