Well, I got a job interview very soon and things are looking good, so provided I get the job I'm gonna get myself a Snes tonight I think and finish off my Megadrive collection!

Wish I could finish mine off. There's always more I seem to want.

You won't regret the Snes, so many pure classics on it.

Got a list of games you plan on getting?

Finally won a copy of Majora's mask today.

Think I'm only missing two of the Zelda games for the consoles I've got now.

Not sure how the interview went, think they thought I might be "over qualified" but I dont care, just give me the job!

Games I want on the Snes...

Dkc 1, 2 +3
Yoshis Island
Starwing
Stunt Race Fx
Axelay
F Zero
Super Mario World
Super Mario All Stars
Super Mario Kart
Super R-Type
R-Type 3
Jurassic Park
Mortal Kombat 2
Mickey Mouse - Mickeys Magical Quest
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
Street Fighter 2
Sparkster
TMNT In Time
WWF Royal Rumble
Tiny Toon Adventures
Zelda 3
Zool

There are more, but those are the main ones I want. It all hinges on me getting a new job and being able to leave my present employer officially (as I haven't worked there since November and am taking them to court, so I have a very limited income right now).

Ooh can you post pics of said pirated copy? Were you only able to determine this by cracking it open?

The case felt a bit different, more rough than smooth and upon opening it their was a large yellow battery and a massive chip with soem japanese sticker on.

I'll try later to post.

Im sorry but I cant remember how much. It was from a UK seller and yes it is the Australian PAL version. I think it was around £25 I got it for

This thread inspired me to get my Master System Mk1 plugged in and running, had a close call with all the transformers looking so similar and having them all in a box together.

I'm not sure quite how compatible the Megadrive one is as its higher volts and amps

Spent the past hour or so on Safari Hunt (built in) on an old portable TV I got off a friend the other day.

I really need to make a list of my none nintendo stuff, I started at one point to sort it all out and gave up

My Master System 2, will run off my Mega Drive 1 power supply quite happily.

I've no idea how similar the MS1 and MS2 power supplies are though, so that may be useless information for you.

Here's my collection so far

Just need to get my Playstation, Xbox and SMS set up now
