Steve X2

Los Lobos

Will she be making an appearance on sunday?!

Jack burton

Yeah no good gophers alright! Basically a caddyshack themed Machine.

Sadly wont be there on Sunday but It will be at a league Meet this year!

CathalDublin

Looks cool, and it's got a spinner on the playfield like the whirlwind

Jack burton

Yeah has a spinner. Pat lawlor must be a fan of them

Working the next few days so I'll put up some more pics when I get it back up on its legs and set up. Still Has the licence disc on it from 98/99

This is actually from an arcade in Tramore and I used to play it and Theatre of Magic out there the whole time. Now I own them both! Thanks to Mitch for holding onto it for me :P!

Yeah, they have them listed on their website. €30 for Red, Blue, Silver and Gold and I think it's €33 for Yellow and €35 for Crystal.

Especially when they will more than likely sell you a bootleg.

Yes, in fact they sold me a Super GnG GBA bootleg before. Only bootleg I ever got stung with.

The new device in my life seems to be a bit patchy on what it'll read.
There's a few NES and GB carts that refuse to be read.
Others work fine so some cleaning to be done.

I never thought his ban was lifted. He had a valid point iirc, they just didn't like hearing it.

Yeah I was just recommending RGB cables to someone not happy with composite video quality.

Ciderman you sure it's not just bad emulation meaning those games won't run? Pretty sure it still have problems with some games that use extra chips like Castlevania 3.

No, don't think so.
It was a copy of Donkey Kong Classic and Lifeforce for the NES, as well as Tetris DX and RType DX for the GBC, everything else was working, like a Jap copy of Kirbys Fun Pak for the Snes.

Here's Castlevania 3 on the Retron 5 for example

I have seen a couple of fakes in there. I saw two copies of Castlevania Aria of Sorrow recently enough. €20ish euro each. They stood out when I was going through the carts. The label art was stretched beyond recognition.

Watching a few YouTube videos about them would save them a small fortune.

Edit: something else I noticed the last time I was in there. I picked up Sonic Adventure 2 for €12.95 a few months ago in there. It's now somewhere around the €45 mark.

The Last Bandit

After years of searching I finally got my hands on one of these (paid stupid money for it as well). You'd need to of a certain vintage and have owned an Amstrad to appreciate it

CiDeRmAn

I remember Romantic Robot alright,
They used to have little black and white ads in the gaming press of the time, selling games and peripherals like that.
They were a ZX specialist in the main, weren't they, although must have been more of a Z80 specialist when they made CPC devices too.
Well done there.

The Last Bandit

Ya they started doing ZX stuff alright, the first Multiface was for the Spectrum. Great hacking/'backup' tool.

Remember seeing all the Multiface cheat codes for games in the various mags but could never enter them until now, maybe I finally get to finish Highway Encounter !!

BGOllie

on a roll these days
Kings Valley 2 for MSX2


[edit]
Here's the game in action (not my video)

I'm disappointed with the photo. It's not sexy (or premium) enough.

Or were you saving that for the other thread?

Well, that's my appetite gone till this evening....

Also, before selling on any games/consoles, be sure to give them a wipe!

actually, I don't buy that. It's plenty sexy. It's got some Japanese, some Japanese style cartoon, the MSX2 logo, a keyboard, the SCC chip logo and the old Konami logo
...AND a boomerang.

damn that's sexy!!

As Paul Newman out of The Hustler would say...
