Jet Get Radio!!!! post here when you get something new!

Yes I think there were a few around. You can still get the odd one on ebay(3D Zero version i think). But they're pricey at this stage and don't actually work very well from what I've read.

In fairness I always liked the feel of the 3DO pad(large or small version). But having wireless controls and options for mouse input and other fancy stuff is what made me get this thing. You can still daisy chain with this by the way, it has a port on the back.

Just got Chrono trigger complete on the Famicom for under €30 shipped to me. Which I think isn't too bad in this day and age. Going to pick up a few SFC titles and change the roms to English for text heavy games.

Been meaning to do it for years now. Probably missed out on a good pile of them for cheaper but sure f3ck it

Managed to nab a custom made Candy 25 12 button panel from Alberto over on Arcadeotaku.

SNK Cabinets never had this button layout in this style. It's something I've wanted to get made up for years and years to try out.

He modelled it 100% after my current SNK panel, just with a Capcom fighter friendly button layout instead.

Not sure what to do button colour wise. Part of me wants to make the first four buttons the SNK colours and the two 'extra' ones on the bottom right on each side white to go with the white ball tops...not sure if that might look a bit mental though!

Seems that once you're a collector, you're always a collector. I've been bit by the bug again. However, this time I need to do things differently. Instead of collecting "all the things", I think juts owning the hardware I used to have, and wanted to have back in the day, will do me. In particular, I've always had a soft spot for 8 and 16bit micros.

First though, there was a huge Megadrive hole on my shelf. So that's been rectified with an early Jap console, which is in mostly very good condition. It needs a good clean, and all marks look like they'll come out except one down near the volume slider. Quite happy with it, and I'll throw up a restoration thread when I eventually get to it!

Last year, I went a bit Amiga mad.....yikes....a lot of work here to do. Cap kits, restoration/retrobrite, upgrades and so on. Again, there'll be threads when the time comes.

I've also recently been watching a LOT of Atari ST videos. Never had one, never even seen one in the flesh, and again, always wanted one. Then somehow, two arrived! A 520STfm, and a 1040STe....again, lots of restoration work needed, serious deep cleans, retrobriting, and some QoL upgrades perhaps. The 1040 is missing its badge, which I thought was quite suspicious when looking at the ad. I took the chance though and verified the motherboard is indeed what it's supposed to be....

That's mostly all I have the space to display, I have the usual bits and pieces in storage like handhelds and so forth. I have to use my old bedroom in parents house to store everything, not an ounce of space for any of it where I live unfortunately. I'll have my own little private games room one day...one day!

The Atari's are properly filthy, they need a good long soak.

Not retro gaming but retro general, I know some people collect like tapes and stuff.

Anyway picked this up, was mad for a cute phone

Fairly sure I have a red one of those triangle walk men here belongs to the mrs

I hadn't seen that! That's so funny.

Oh that is amazing

Got this from Japan yesterday. Prepaid €7 vat and still got stung for another €8 when I arrived. Game itself cost €18 + €8 shipping so figure that **** out

Nice! That's unreal.

I was gonna get the rotary phone but the one I got takes up less space and love that transparent stuff like the GBC so worked out grand.

Now my IG is showing me 00s mobile phones, eep!

A friend of mine got me this for my birthday yesterday, good thing I didn't buy it myself when I saw it :D

Finally got a pic

After trying to fix an Amstrad CPC464 with the problem I think narrowed down to the 40010 chip which can't be got :( So, what do you do? Get another machine! This is the Schneider branded CPC464, Amstrad didn't have a division to sell into the German speaking regions in Europe so they worked with this company to sell'em.

It's one of the next in line for me, albeit via an ODE.

I'm looking forward to it! I played an hour or so during the summer to see what the fuss was about but couldn't put more time into it. I'll be starting from scratch once I clear the decks of a few other games.

In other news, I got a 220V GameCube PSU today. I've got two GCs with 100V PSUs and I'm plain sick of step-downs. I've already got that covered on one of my Dreamcasts and Saturns so this is one more step.

Next up, Nintendo Wii 220V PSU!
