Hows the Amiga games collection coming along?

WaynelleUK09 · 25 Jul 2014 at 12:48

Picked this up in the local cash converters had to pay £15 for it but its still a decent deal and it works fine.

Stopped for awhile, got ***** of when that person tried to screw me over on Ebay. Also trying to save money, just spending here and there now

DEL 707 · 26 Jul 2014 at 12:53

New game, even though I promised to hold off on the spending for awhile

Such a bright, fun game. Really is up there with the Metal Slugs.

I haven't personally but over on Adam Koralik's YouTube channel he has ordered many of their EverDrives and had them shipped to the USA so you should be fine.

He has a good retro channel is a guru on the Sega Dreamcast and all things Shenmue.

Like the sounds of that Everdrive, 1/2 tempted to dust off my old Mega Drive and SNES, just wish I had a big enough unit so I could keep them hooked up to the TV.

small delivery of joy yesterday

Hi guys, i been a bit quiet in this thread so I though i would post my latest exploits in retro gaming!

I finally completed my NES RGB (well Famicom RGB to be precise!) Install was a ball ache but finally got the board in and the pallet switch wired in and the AV Connector points soldered in.

I must tell you, when i first switched the machine on i was genuinely gob-smacked by the picture quality. It was pixel perfect. I am really enjoying playing through all my old NES games now in RGB. Best mod i have ever done on any machine!

phatboy · 30 Jul 2014 at 21:59

lads done good!

Timber · 30 Jul 2014 at 23:16

Yes, wow - that's a lovely picture.

Thanks bud... I actually fell across his channel this morning; lol

I'm just padding out my master system collection at the moment and its costing me more in p&p than some of the the games are worth.
