What were the online functions for Shenmue ?

 

[Apopcalyptic]

Funny you should mention that, I think that cable belongs to me now seeing I am the new owner of her N64, want me to pay for postage seeing as you've got no use for it?

Sure, pay off the debts she left me in and it's yours!

 

[Haly]

Stop selling your stuff then

I bought your SNES and your Gamecube a while back.

Lol I didn't have the choice back then unfortunately as I needed the money
When I've got some spare again, I'll sort out another Dreamcast I think.

What? What the hell has that got to do with anything? You have a cable you have no use for, I need it and am willing to pay postage for it!

Dont drag me into all your ex relationship/debt/commitment crap! Do you want to sell it or not?

There was global rankings for the arcade games.

I was ranked no. 3 in the world at Space Harrier for a long while.

That looks in extremely good nick. I have to admit that I don't know a lot about the console but congrats.

Thanks, it is in great condition, although i had to dismantle the controllers and rebuild them to get them working correctly.

Also it was stinking inside, so i opened it and gave it a well needed clean out

This just arrived in the post this morning...

Welcome to the party.

I love my Neo-Geo.

 

[Dolmio Chips]

Yeah I've been after one for ages and finally decided to get one.

Its fully boxed and in really good condition, only a small scratch on the top of it.

Need to start looking for some games for it now!!!

Ordered this if it can be counted as retro?

Can't wait, PS3 is a crap 'social' console and the Cube is compact so I'll be taking it to college some days to play with mates when we're allowed some time to chillax.

£30 new, bargain of the year for me.

Anyone ever have one of these ?



"The Doctor V64 (also referred to as "V64") is a development and backup device made by Bung Enterprises Ltd that is used in conjunction with the Nintendo 64. The Doctor V64 also had the ability to play Video CDs, audio CDs and had an option for applying stereo 3D effects to the audio."

N64 Doctor v64 Never had one my self but allways fancied one but could never seem to find any where that sold them

Also the Z64



"The Mr. Backup Z64 is a Nintendo 64 game cartridge backup unit designed to store your game images on Zip Diskettes. Units such as this one are faced with legal issues, due to the fact that the general public can download these backup files from internet sites such as RomHustler and RomNation, and play them using an emulator such as Project64.

Unlike the Doctor V64, this backup unit plugs into your Nintendo 64's cartridge slot, which may get in the way."

I have one of those in my attick - not as in good condition as yours but fully working anyway. Are they worth anything?

Also, I noticed a market stall in my local town centre with an Atari 2600 plus a few games... I thought about buying it, but was undecided. Are these old consoles worth having and holding onto?

 

[Metalface Mark]

Just got this ! 99p on ebay hehe

Made in 1978 and its in tip top condition, the silver strip across the top still has the plastic protector on it !! Been kicking the wifes a$$ at pong all night hahaha

Fantastic! That was my xmas present in 1978 and my very first console, great memories seeing the picture you posted.

That brings back great memories for me too. My Grandad had that exact same console, it was brilliant.

Check ebay for colecovisions, you'll see how much they are fetching. They're worth a lot more when boxed and complete. Lets just say I could have bought a brand new PSP for less than i payed for mine

As for the Atari, they fetch less, but still pull in a few quid. Depends on what model it is really, the "Heavy Sixers" with the Sunnyvale mark are worth the most (these where the 1st models). Again these are worth far more when boxed and complete.

Edit: if your selling any games for the Colecovision, i would be interested
