    That's so strange. I'll have to dig out my Xbox, I think I only got it for JSRF and still didn't pick it up. Disgraceful.
    Oh and Steel Battalion, you linked me to the game afaik

    For some odd reason I thought you were all talking about Fighting Force on the PS1 and had lost your minds.

    I was thinking of FF too but that's because they're both games I played with my cousin. Maybe they were out the same time?

    I was looking for a walkman to listen to my Sonic Forever tape on. Luckily a friend had to be laying out and posted it to me :) .
    Haven't tried it yet, came with a Greenday tape lol

    You might give the pinch rollers and other parts a clean. And then test it with a random cassette, just to make sure the player doesn't eat it, older players can get peculiar and eat cassettes.
    And this cassette is pretty rare, r@re!!! even!

    Pinch rollers are what hold the tape in? Best thing to use for cleaning? Yeah I have the Greenday inside it to test first, had tapes ate by my TalkGirl lol, definitely too wary to just throw in my Sega one

    The Rage will give you at least a tenner for it though...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    What's the best thing to use for cleaning it? I may he able to pick it up in town later. There isn't much inside it and it looks fairly okay, much better than the outside lol.
    I'll still give it clean though

    You can get cassette head cleaning kits, however I'd say they'd be pretty hard to find in town these days. There was a time when every pound shop had them :D

    I would use a small bottle of methylated spirits and a pack of some sort of absorbent material that won't shed fibres, Atavan is no longer in the country so methylated spirit supplies are back to normal levels, he's off drinking Canada Dry!

    I have methylated spirits, I often used it for cleaning off paint especially spray paint after props.
    Or would the cassette head be a million times better? I never actually did that kinda stuff as a kid and the only tape cleaner like 01s has that I saw was for video tapes.

    isopropyl alcohol (Aka rubbing alcohol) would probably be the best way to go? Same stuff you use for cleaning game carts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,146 ✭✭✭CathalDublin


    I use to use Vodka back in the day

    Should have rubbing alcohol somewhere, easier to find here than Vodka lol.

    Will the alcohol be enough or should I get the head cleaning tape?

    Thanks so much for the help to far everyone <3

    Are tape cassettes going to come back into popularity like records because I'd love and hate that in equal measures.

    I'm not sure, I don't think so this is only tape I'm seeing around. It won't take over from Vinyl, they don't look as pretty

    That's a pity because I've gone and put a tack deck in the car. :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    I'll make you a mix tape if you make me one!
    (I'd love to do one, mix CDs are the closest I get)

    Cleaning tape is just a lazy way of manually cleaning with cue tip/Cotten bud and alcohol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,364 ✭✭✭✭Kylo Ren


    I'll make you one, Fuzzy.

    Cool! I wasn't sure if it could reach further than a bud would

    Put on some other meme junk on it like Gourmet Race, it'll be great
