indeed.
it was at a friend of his, never got to work on it and needed the space now and he wanted to make sure it would go so someone who'd get it back running and not flip it for parts on ebay.

I got a 16k Ram pack for my zx81 today so now I can feel the full burn of what my little black and white wonder is capable of. That, and random crashes every time the rampack moves even a millimetre.

I'm a fan and collector of 3D movies so decided to wet my toe into 3D gaming and I'm planning to pick up the Sega 3D add-on for master system soon. I was having a look at the several 3D games on Ebay and they all seem to sell at fair prices one of the games Outrun 3D was going for high prices, over a hundred, but managed to buy a copy for 50 quid so that should be arriving next week.

Just got a big boxed Lethal Enforcers for the Sega CD

Really want the pink gun now too!

I remember playing this on the megadrive and thinking to myself that graphics had hit their peak. Games were never gonna look any better than this bad boy

Considering a region free mod, but I dont know if its worth the hassle when I can just buy NTSC games, more often than not cheaper than pal. I'll see.

Is there a newer method of region modding the N64? Last I looked, it was pretty messy, involving harvesting a chip from another N64 & using a big switch to switch between them...

I wouldn't bother with the region mod tbh, easily switch between jap and us and the games are less expensive although shipping might be more. Jap n64 stuff is pranuts too.

Just buy a Jap/US N64 and collect away.
The speed difference in WaveRace 64 is incredible, it's like a different game.

i like the game actually. http://www.adverts.ie/arcade-retro/atari-badlands-1989/12961538
not sure it's worth 550 though
I see in his withdrawn ads, he seems to have agreed to let it go for 100 , 9 months ago : http://www.adverts.ie/arcade-retro/original-atari-badlands/10886975

Not sure what's going on here.

Walking around town decided to pop in at The Rage, found this nice copy of Pikmin NTSCJ CIB (okay-ish condition) for €15.

Not directly retro, picked up an Ikea Lappland display unit, and a Lakk shelf to compliment it also. While not a retro get, it does however allow me to display some retro goodness at last!!!

MrVestek

Same unit that I use!

Love it...

Still though... an NES on an LCD?

For shame.

It's for display purposes only, none of those consoles are hooked up. I've been totally sold on Retroarch with those amazing shaders it has (not the ones that come with the Pi, while they're good, the Pi apparently can't run the really good ones). Coupled with the fantastic Launchbox frontend, I find it a serious contender for the real thing...and I don't say that lightly (having dropped god knows how much money on collecting over the years).

Any pictures I take of the retroarch shaders in action look crap compared to what's being shown on the tv, so I won't do it an injustice by posting one up. All I'll say is, I'm strongly considering keeping my absolute must-keep games etc, & selling off everything else - I find it that good!

Got a Retro Receiver today, for using the 8bitdo controllers with the SNES. Works fantastically! Played a little bit of Demon's Crest with it!

My Mrs has been getting into playing Shenmue lately.

Finally cobbled some cables together last night and got the Dreamcast hooked up via VGA to the TV and hooked the audio up to the sound system.

Had it blasting out of 5.1 stereo.

It was an amazing experience... almost like playing the game brand new all over again.
