The 3 Amiga joysticks seems to be working just fine.

The SNES controllers are all made of cheese and are not working.

The top right SNES controller shows most promise. I opened it up a few times and eeked some life out of it, but I wouldn't rely on it.

The SNES Multitap seems to work well.

Shame about the SNES Pads not working. At least the joysticks work!

Has your PicoGUS turned up yet?

What did you use to clean your controllers; I've got a few grubby ones that could do with a spring clean.

Get it in a machine dude, doesn't matter which one, just test it to make sure it works! I'm going to put mine in my 233mmx machine i think.

I hear you buddy... ..still deciding.

My P200 MMX is housing one of my all time favourite sound cards, the Ensoniq Soundscape (Value)
My first ever retro-build is housing a Creative Awe 64 Value
My 386 is housing a versatile Aztech ISA with S2 Wavetable module
My Dell P90 is housing a Yamaha Audician 32
A new retro build is needed for this.. :p

We as a family were expecting to move house since April and it still hasn't happened. It was at that point I would re-organise my Retro PC collection and get this in somewhere.

Purchased a set of Altec Lansing ACS50 speakers.

I originally owned a set, back in 1997, purchased along with a Dell XPS Dimension P200MMX. The set I had back then came with a subwoofer.

This time around I'm happy to forgo a sub. :)

Ooh, I have a pair of those, but I'm missing the AC adapter! Could you take a pic of the label on it so I can find the right one? :)
