is that a Roccat Vulcan 100 or 120 Aimo?
I have just ordered one and just want to find out what you think of it?
I ordered the brown key version
Its the Vulcan 120 Aimo. I went for the Titan tactile switches and 6 months on its going great. The look is a bit different from your usual keyboard(mostly the key tops), but I see that as a good thing
The software isn't great, but you wont be spending much time in there once you've set up profiles and LEDs etc.
Not my pic

New Veccy goodness just arrived this morning!
A 72 game Multicart V2 and Vectorblade, both from Andrew Coleman in the UK.
I have another copy of Vectorblade on the way from the US, on the slow boat I imagine.
I can't wait to try Vectorblade out, it is supposed to be spectacular.

PS2 TOOL arrived from Japan but got dropped kicked a few times by Fedex! So, insurance claim logged so lets see what comes of that. It was cheap so not a massive loss. It will prob boot etc. as the internals look fine but haven't touched it yet incase Fedex want something checked/done.
Wayhay! Got monies back for the destroyed case PS2 TOOL So I can now look to change its PSU and power it up to see whats what.In other news, picked up a Retron HD, their NES clone, from Heatons or whatever they are calling themselves these days.
I already have one but this was only €12 so I couldn't exactly leave it behind!
Must get Jackal for it
Oooo, I would have asked yea to get another for me too 0 -

Nice little device, probably not worth the money for most people(didn't stop me ordering 2 of them though)
The USB C port only allows power and not data. But that might change if there's a button combo found to put the device in service/debug mode.
It's already been hacked using the internal debug headers(not simple). But I'm not sure its worth the effort, time will tell.

I wasn't sure what this port was in the pics online. But after checking it out its just a channel for the internal speaker.
These have gone down to 40gbp on Amazon now if anyone was thinking about one but doesn't have one. They're still 60 Euro over here.0 -

Finally got those keys, and the locks were so stiff I reckon that side of the red tent hasn't been opened in donkeys years.
So first of all I was able to turn the volume down on Mario which was great. Turns out it's another sharp xm monitor. But the colours on Mario were off, the sky was purple instead of blue. But to adjust the rbg you'd need the hands of a four year old to squeeze in, so using a biscuit tin I made a "tool" with 20 angles (patent pending) and with a lot of cursing managed to get it right. Looks nice now
Basically I'm bored out of my t*ts and cutting up biscuit tins passes for entertainment
Looking at that picture again it seems blurry, but in real life it's nice and sharp0 -

I finally got my Game & Watch Super Mario Bros today.
I ended up cancelling the one pre-ordered from Nintendo and just got it for a tenner less from Smyth's.
Seems like a very nice little device.
I must sort out those stands for you and the others to hold the Game and Watch. They are quick to 3D print so its just a matter of organising the posting 0 -

That would be great, I plan to have it in work, as a clock and an occasional sneaky game.
Until they make the loading of games onto it easier, in which case it might be a more regular fixture.
It is a lovely device0 -

Very nice red tent.
I actually have a "floppy" screwdriver for those awkward jobs. Useless for 99.9% of the time but a lifesaver the one time you need it0 -
I got a dogbone NES controller in the post today to compliment my toploader NES. It's nice and clean and was reasonably priced. I went for the AV Famicom version, so OF COURSE the cable is really short.
I took a look inside and the cable is terminated with a socket. I think I'll try to replace the cable with something longer.

Look into getting a cable extension maybe? I've one for my Famicom and Hudson control pad.0 -
